Dimensional Floating and Fluttering Card!

Hello Everyone,

Another fabulous die bundle being featured today …. Floating and Fluttering!

I have shared some cards with the stamp set already, but I am also using the coordinating dies in the project featured today!

I used Stampin’ Blends to colour the butterflies. See how to get this stunning look in my video tutorial!

Using a coordinating ink pad for the sentiment pulls the design together.

And I just had to add Wink of Stella to the wings.

The die cuts give the card loads of dimension.

There are so many colour combinations you can try!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Colour Challenges with Pretty Perennials

Hello Everyone,

Here we are again, the start of another week of lockdown here in the UK!

Today’s cards have been made for a couple of Facebook colour challenges;

  • Highland Heathe
  • Just Jade
  • Gray Granite

And….

  • Old Olive
  • Petal Pink
  • Night of Navy

I chose to work with the Pretty Perennials bundle. It is so versatile and great value for money. For a few extra pounds, you will also qualify for a Sale-a-bration item!

You can see the cardmaking process in my video tutorial….

I tweaked the layout slightly from the original so it was a little more balanced.

The Pastel Pearls from the Hydrangea Hill suite were perfect for this card!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Gez Carpenter: Nigezza Creates

Heather Forgan: Stamp With Nellie

Jill Chapman: Paper Daisy Crafting

This month’s theme really got me thinking….. Many of you will know I’m not one for anything fancy, but nevertheless, I have managed to make this card!

Measurements (inches):

Whisper White Base card 5-7/8 x 6-1/4 scored on long side at 4-1/8

DSP 5-3/4 x 4 and 2 pieces 5-3/4 x 2

Whisper White Inner card 5-3/8 x 7-1/4 scored on long side at 3-5/8

DSP 3 pieces 5-1/4 x 3-1/2

If you are using the Stitched So Sweetly dies to add panels, you will also need to cut 4 pieces of DSP 3-5/8 x 2-1/2

You can see how to make this card in my video tutorial….

I love how the different designer series papers work together!

The inside portion folds out. Leave a panel blank for your own handwritten message!

The little bit of extra stamping around the main greeting adds interest without adding bulk.
