Lost Without You

Hello there,

The colour inspiration for today’s card came from this bright designer series paper from the Pick a Pattern collection.

All of the supplies used today are due to retire at the end of May. You can see all the retiring products here. Don’t miss out – once they are gone, they are gone!

To make this card, I used Pink Pirouette card stock to make the base. The DSP was then added to this.

The topper was made with Pink Pirouette card stock measuring 3-1/4 inches by 5 inches.

A piece was Whisper White was cut 1/8 inch shorter and narrower. This was used to stamp on.

I have used the Blooms & Wishes stamp set. The sentiment was stamped first with black memento ink.

The flowers were added using. Flirty Flamingo, Pink Pirouette, Crushed Curry and Emerald Envy inks. First, second and third generation stamping created a softer effect using such bright and beautiful colours.

This was adhered to the Pink Pirouette card stock and then to the card with dimensionals.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!

DSP Note Card Mix

Hi folks,

I shared some note cards a couple of days ago which were very popular. So here are some more using some of the papers included in the paper sale which ends on 31st October – so there’s still time to get yours.

These 4 use A Whole Lot of Lovely to cover the card with a simple black sentiment from the coordinating stamp set Lots of Love.

 

Birthday Memories was used for these cards. I used the same layout as the original post. The sentiments are taken from Happy Birthday Gorgeous.

 

Here is Pick a Pattern. This is quite a quirky designer paper, but looks great here. The pieces were cut on the diagonal for a different look. The sentiments are taken from Patterns and Pieces and cut and mounted in different ways.

 

Finally, I used Christmas Around the World. This pack has some very bold designs on one side, but the other side has some more traditional designs which I used on these cards. I teamed this with Foil Snowflakes and a sentiment from Hearts Come Home.

 

So I hope this gives you some ideas.

Thanks for stopping by an happy stampin’!

Splits

Good Morning,

I thought I would try a different card style that I have seen on Pinterest from many other crafters.

I have used Pick a Pattern DSP and the coordinating Patterns and Pieces stamp set.

I made a Whisper White card base and added a DSP layer.

A second Whisper White layer was cut to create two angled pieces. These were adhered to the card with dimensionals.

The flowers were stamped in Archival Black ink. To make them match the paper, I used Emerald Envy ink and a blender pen to colour the centre.

Two sets of leaves were cut with the Leaf punch.

The sentiment was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink and cut in to a banner.

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

Fun Guy Card

Hello folks,

First of all, sorry about the title; couldn’t resist!

Just lately, I have been experimenting with different ways to create layers on my cards. This is what I came up with today, partly inspired by some recent challenges I have taken part in.

For this design, I have opted to use the same patterned paper design on both panels. This is from the Pick A Pattern collection.

The base layer has been cut to my usual formula using a black card base .

The second layer was cut 1 inch shorter and narrower with DSP to match.

Some Whisper White sheer ribbon was wrapped three times around the panel before adhering to the card base with dimensionals.

The sentiment is taken from the matching stamp set and was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. This was cut with a scalloped circle die and mounted on to an Everyday Label punched from Sahara Sand card stock.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. The supplies used are listed below.

RAWR!

Hey there,

This is a fun card to make for a special someone in your life.

This card features the Pick A Pattern designer series paper which is currently included in the DSP sale this month.

The paper helps me to decide on the colour scheme of the card. For this I picked out Sahara Sand as a neutral to make the card base.

I have teamed this with the No Bones About It stamp set. I used one of the skeletons and Sahara Sand ink to add interest.

A piece of Basic Black card was cut 1/2 inch shorter and narrower than the card front, with the DSP being cut 1/8 inch smaller again. I added some Crushed Curry bakers twine and adhered this to the card at a slight angle with dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped with Crushed Curry ink and die cut. This was layered on to some Emerald Envy card stock cut with the Starburst punch. A small banner of Sahara Sand card stock was put behind this for some contrast.

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

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’!
