Friendship Card feat. Flowers for Every Season DSP

Hello Everyone,

Designer Series Paper does most of the work in today’s project. With so many different designs there’s something to fit the bill.

The additional stamping on the card base is an optional extra, but adds some nice detail.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

The Magenta Madness ribbon adds a pop of colour and texture!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Project Share Project

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to this week’s Project Share. As always my friends have created some lovely work. Please use the links to visit their blogs and read more about their projects.

This week we all took part in a team blog hop showcasing products from the August December Mini Catalogue.

There is so much to chose from, and all the ladies have used completely different products in completely different ways!

Jill’s card is very traditional, using reds and greens to colour her Christmas ornament! The shading makes it appear 3D!

Visit Jill’s blog here

Heather has created this square card with a wonderful watercolour background! It really makes the single snowflake pop!

Gez has gone for a halloween theme for these little treat boxes. The silver embossing looks terrific on the bats! Totally spooky!

I picked Have a Hoot and the coordinating Peek a Hoot dies to work with.

I used the tags die in the set to create these apertures in Crumb Cake cardstock and stamped this with Crumb Cake ink.

This was used to mark a piece of Whisper White, identifying where the owls would be stamped. I used the Stamparatus to position the stamps.

The images were stamped again on a separate sheet for colouring and die cutting.

Pool Party ink was applied to the white cardstock before colouring the tree branches. (No need to colour the owls at this point).

This was adhered behind the Crumb Cake apertures, then onto a piece of Real Red cardstock before adding to a Crumb Cake card base.

The owls were coloured with Stampin’ Blends markers before die cutting. They were adhered to the card with dimensionals.

Finally, Real Red ink was used to stamp a sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

The video tutorial for this project will be available tomorrow, do stop by again then!

I trying out something fun with heat embossing today, I’m calling it double embossing!

Step one, heat emboss with clear powder.

Step two, heat emboss with coloured powder.

In this example I chose silver, this could also have been white!

See how I made this card in my video tutorial….

I ended up using Rich Razzleberry card stock, but would have preferred to use Blackberry Bliss.

This is the original sample using Very Vanilla, Terracotta Tile and Cinnamon Cider.

I used gold powder for step two!

Hello Everyone,

I’m playing with the Many Mates bundle today and combining this with the Artistry Blooms designer series paper.

The Many Medallions dies are more versatile than they appear too. I got two of these from one die cut.
