Hi Everyone, 

The Big on Birthdays stamp set has some great bold sentiments, so I used some bold colours to bring them to life.

The card base was made from Lemon Lime Twist card stock. I layered some Whisper White and Fresh Fig card stock over the top. 

On a separate piece of white card, I stamped the sentiment with Lemon Lime Twist ink. From the same set I added some floral details with Fresh Fig ink.

I then tied some Berry Burst ribbon around the card before adding some leaves and flowers from the Galling Flowers set. These were stamped with Tranquil Tide, Powder Pink and Berry Burst and adhered with glue dots.

Finally, I added a bit of bling to the flower centres.

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

Hi folks,

For today’s card, I picked out two designs from the Memories and More pack with a gem theme. 

The 2 were layered together to fit on to the front of a Crumb Cake note card.

Before adhering these down, I added some Crumb Cake ribbon. I also added some die cut gems using the Eclectic Layers dies.

Hi Crafters,

Not one, not two but three cards to share today.

Card One.

I cut two card layers 1/8 inch smaller than a white note card. The layers were adhered together.

I took one card from the Perfect Day Memories and More pack and cut away the patterned portion. I added these pieces to the cardclayers leaving a valley. 

I then wrapped some Lemon Lime Twist ribbon around the card layers.

The sentiment was stamped in Emerald Envy ink. Finally, the card was put together and a knot of ribbon added.

Card Two.

I cut a card layer from Emerald Envy card stock. I added a patterned card to the right hand side. The pack also has a foiled acetate piece. This was layered over the top to the left hand side.

The sentiment was stamped in Emerald Envy ink and cut with the Starburst punch. I added this to the card with a dimensional.

Card Three.

I cut a card layer from Crumb Cake card stock, then layered this lovely Soft Sky patterned card on to some black card. This was adhered to the the top of the Crumb Cake piece.

The sentiment was stamped in black ink.

I then punched out two daisies and added these and the ribbon. I finished the card with some rhinestones.

I hope you enjoyed these projects. The supplies used are listed and linked below.

Hi there,

Here we are at day 4 of this series.

So far, the cards have largely featured Emerald Envy as the predominant colour. This one is Soft Sky… One of my favourite colours in the SU range.

I backed this card with basic black, picking out the colour of the text.

No stamping was added to this card at all. The card is enough on it’s own.

I did add some linen thread, before adhering to a Crumb Cake note card.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hi Everyone,

I hope you like these quickly cards. They were so much fun to make!

Here’s part 3!

This card from the pack could have been for any occasion but I opted for a nice simple birthday card… Also suitable for a guy!

I adhered the card on to a Crumb Cake note card, positioned to the left hand side.

The “birthday” is a partial stamp from the Window Shopping set, stamped in black ink on to a strip of Crumb Cake card stock. I cut the end off at an angle.

A matching strip was cut from black card. The edges were embellished with a white chalk marker.

These were added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Hi there,

I love leaves… The shapes, the colours, just beautiful. Today’s project uses the Vintage Leaves stamp set.

I started by stamping one leaf on to a piece of Whisper White card and adhering this to a Very Vanilla card base.

I stamped a second leaf on to some Very Vanilla card stock and cut this out. I added this to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment came from Sunshine Sayings. This was cut out with a 1 inch punch and layered on to a 1 1/2 inch Pear Pizzazz circle.

I finished off the card with some linen thread and glitter enamel dots.

Today’s project was inspired by the lovely Christine Bettany. You can see her work at

http://www.christinescrafting.co.uk

The card shape started as a standard card blank with the front folded back. Another 3 inch strip was scored at the same points then turned upside down. 

With the second piece held, (not glued), in place I decided how much I wanted to take off each end. This is personal preference. 

I decorated each visible panel with Delightful Daisy DSP,then adhered the 2 zig-zag pieces together…. Be careful where you put the glue!

The greetings were stamped in Night of Navy ink and cut in to banners. These were positioned on the card as shown.

I then stamped out 2 daisies, shaped the petals and glued it in place. The centre was finished off with a faceted gem.

Good Morning!

This was one of those projects that evolved as I went along.

I really wanted to use the hummingbird in the You Move Me set. After a couple of colour experiments, I went with Lemon Lime Twist and Dapper Denim inks. 

The leaves are Tranquil Tide and the flowers are Flirty Flamingo.

All the elements were die cut with the matching thinlits, including the flower centres from Crushed Curry.

Whilst arranging the bits and pieces, I felt more was needed on the background. I embossed it with the Layered Leaves folder, then added a circle of Soft Sky ink.

I layered the elements using Fast Fuse or Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Finally, I stamped the greeting and cut this out with 1 inch circle punch.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Hi folks, 

Just two stamps were used to make this card! Love how it turned out….change the colour and the sentiment to suit the occasion.

I have used Bermuda Bay ink for this background and a stamp from the Star of Light set. I practised the positioning on some grid paper first. 

I draw some light pencil lines the find the centre of the card and started by lining up the 4 points of the star stamp with these lines. I continued to line up the images and build the pattern.

The sentiment was stamped with Island Indigo ink and added to the card with Fast Fuse adhesive.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked at the bottom of the page.

Hi there folks,

A really simple make today…. If you’ve ever realised at the last minute you a quick card, this is for you.

Cut a piece of Whisper White card stock to 4 by 5 3/4 inches.

Align the embossing folder with the bottom edge of the card and roll through the Big Shot.

I chose a “brush stroke” stamp from the Sunshine Sayings set and used this to add colour to make the embossing pop. I used Peekaboo Peach.

I then added some Pool Party Shimmer Ribbon to finish off the card.

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

Sometimes simple is best, this is so cute, love how it came out.

I embossed some Whisper White card stock with the Petal Burst embossing folder. Before adhering to the card base, I added some Flirty Flamingo Striped Grosgrain ribbon. 

The Lovely die was cut from white card stock, then cut out using the 2nd largest heart die from the framelit set.

The largest die was then used to cut some Pink Pirouette card stock. The white die cut was then adhered to this, and added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

To finish I tied a knot around the ribbon and added some Rhinestones.

Today I am applying a technique I learned whilst attending our team retreat over the weekend.

The lovely Janice showed us how to mask. By doing this a shape can be created surrounded by colour still allowing for stamping.

The retreat project used a circle cut from a post-it note. I have switched it up and used the pretty label punch instead.

I went with a floral theme, selecting stamps from the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and purple pink tones of ink.

The same set contained the sentiment, which was stamped in Garden Green ink.

The piece was cut down and layered on to coordinating card stock.

The card base was also stamped before adhering the topper.

I finished off the card with some of the new rhinestones….even more sparkly than before! 

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