Butterfly Gala

Hello Everyone,

This is Butterfly Gala…. A gorgeous new stamp set coming to you soon.

Each image can be stamped and coloured in many different ways, and no need to fussy cut…. There is a matching punch!

I chose to use Pineapple Punch and Grapefruit Grove. I applied the ink to the stamped images with a sponge dauber.

The rest of the card I kept black & white. I love this bold sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Beauty Abounds

Good Morning,

Today’s card features the new Beauty Abounds stamp set coming to you in January….. I just love the butterflies and bokeh dots.

I began by stamping the dots with Balmy Blue ink on a 3 by 4-3/4 inch panel of Whisper White card stock. These stamps were inked using a sponge dauber to ensure the detail of the image was maintained.

Three butterflies were added with 2nd generation Blueberry Bushel ink.

The panel was mounted on to Blueberry Bushel card stock. This was then adhered to a card base with dimensionals.

The same ink was used to stamp the sentiment. This was added with snail adhesive with the ends overlapping the edge of the topper panel.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below. (Some products will be available in January 2019).

InspireINK Blog Hop – Winter Thank You

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to December’s InspireINK blog hop.

The theme this month is “Winter Thank you”

I have used the Beautiful Blizzard bundle… I have loved using this set, I shall miss it when it retires.

I began by cutting a card layer 3 by 4-3/4 inches.

The sentiment was stamped with Gray Granite ink.

Blushing Bride ink was then used to add the snowflakes, turning the stamp each time.

The panel was adhered to a layer of Blushing Bride card stock and then to the card base.

Three die cut snowflakes were then added to complete the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

A Lovely Lipstick card base was prepared by stamping “hooray” along the right hand edge.

The stamped panel was added to the card. “Congratulations” was added below it.

A strip of Blueberry Bushel card was adhered with five Pineapple Punch flowers.

Dear Doily

Hello Everyone,

This post introduces the beautiful Dear Doily bundle.

I began by preparing a Whisper White card base. A 3 by 4-3/4 panel was layered on to some Gorgeous Grape card stock and added to the card.

The large doily was die cut and adhered in the bottom right corner.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp three of the florals. Ink was applied to the stamp with sponge daubers. The images were die cut and adhered with mini dimensionals.

For the sentiment, I first stamped a small doily using Smoky Slate ink (stamped off). Gorgeous Grape ink was then used to add the wording. This was cut with a 1-1/2 inch circle punch.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below. Some products will be be available from 5th January 2019.

The sentiment was stamped with Balmy Blue ink and die cut.

The tea cup was stamped and coloured as the leaves were. This was also die cut and adhered with dimensionals.

Lovely Floral Wreath #GDP168

Good Morning,

This week’s Global Design Project challenge is to Case the Designer…. Sarah Berry.

The rest of the design team have made some beautiful projects which you can see here

I have used the Floral Frames bundle to create my wreath design.

To build the wreath, I first die cut 2 of the large motifs. These were adhered together and then to a white card base.

Flowers were stamped with Lovely Lipstick ink. A Wink of Stella pen was used to blend the lines adding soft colour to the flowers.

These were die cut and layered on to the card with dimensionals.

Leaves were cut from Old Olive card stock.

Finally, the sentiment from Sunshine Sayings was stamped with Old Olive ink. Some rhinestones completed the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Happy for You

Hello Again,

Yesterday’s card was an example of how great cards can be made with minimal supplies. Today, is about adding just a little bit more.

I have used 3 ink colours to make my card, but this could be done a single colour just as easily.

The bubbly backgrounds were stamped first with Daffodil Delight and Mango Melody inks.

The sentiment was stamped on a separate piece of card, with Poppy Parade ink and punched out. This was adhered with dimensionals.

I added a bow tied from Pineapple Punch ribbon and some white sequins.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.
