*************************

I have taken the opportunity to showcase some retiring favourites!

The metallic elements I chose are Champagne Foil, and some metallic edged ribbon.

This sample uses Petal Pink and Rich Razzleberry with the Rooted in Nature stamp set and dies.

I love the detail of the Many Medallions dies. The foil looks amazing die cut this way.

I chose Very Vanilla as the base to bring through the warm tone of the foil and the inks.

This combo uses Blushing Bride and Blackberry Bliss!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Wonderful Rooted in Nature

Hello Everyone,

Today’s project is all about Stamps, Paper and Ink!

This version is stepped up slightly, adding an additional set of mats and layers to a coloured card base.

The single layer version is pictured at the end of this post.

Layers are easy to cut with Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer!

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

Masking over the sentiment means it stands out without the need for punches or dies.

This is more simple version, using a Very Vanilla card base a just one mat and layer.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Autumnal One Sheet Wonder

Hello Everyone,

I’m trying something new! A one sheet wonder! I’ve seen lots of these around on Facebook and YouTube, so I wanted to give it a go.

The products I’ve chosen are based on two Facebook challenges, Autumnal theme and a colour challenge;

I picked out leaf images from the Rooted in Nature and Loyal Leaves stamp sets.

See how I made my cards in my video tutorial…

I hope you enjoyed this 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 all the ladies have made some masculine cards. These are always a little tricky so hopefully their work will give you some ideas!

Jill has used the power of geometry to create her card. The sentiment cleverly combines two different stamp sets.

Visit Jill’s blog here

Heather has gone for an automotive theme. I love how the heat embossing adds interest to the background.

Visit Heather’s blog here

Gez has gone for a vintage style. The embossing folder adds texture, and the inked edges give it that old world look.

Wonderful Rococo Rose

Hello Everyone,

Do you like the flowers I have used on my card today?

Read on to find out how I made them.

I started by making a Whisper White card base and embossed it with the Subtle embossing folder.

The background leaves were cut from vellum using a die from the, Well Written Die set.

I chose the sentiment from the Rooted in Nature stamp set and cut this with a Stitched Rectangle Die.

For the flowers I first cut circles with the Scalloped circle punches. The circles were then cut again using the Medium Daisy Punch.

The smaller flower was adhered to the larger one and a Rococo Rose faceted gem was added to the centre.

Some Soft Sea Foam leaves completed the card.

Inspire.Create #046

Hello Everyone,

Welcome to my blog. Every other Monday I share my project that I have used as my entry for the Inspire.Create challenge.

This time it’s a colour challenge. The design team have made some wonderful samples as inspiration. You can see them here.

And this is what I created!

If I’m honest I wasn’t sure what I wanted to create to begin with, I don’t have all the ink colours. But I have the card stock! I already had these Stitched Rectangles left over from another project.

For some added interest, though it is not clear on the photos, I stamped the script image from the Very Versaille stamp set with versamark and heat embossed with clear powder.

The coloured rectangle was added towards the right hand side of the card with dimensionals.

I wanted a bold sentiment, I picked this one from Rooted in Nature.

This was stamped with Memento ink and die cut with a Stitched Circle. Each circle was mounted on to a Pearlized Doily.

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

Blue Green Butterflies

Hello Everyone,

Spring time brings flowers and they bring butterflies. This inspired today’s card.

I prepared a white card base. A white card layer was stamped with Granny Apple Green ink using a leaf image from the Rooted in Nature stamp set.

Butterflies from the Butterfly Gala stamp set were stamped with black ink. Granny Apple Green and Bermuda Bay inks were used to colour the images before cutting with coordinating punch.

These were shaped with a stylus before adhering to a smaller card layer.

A sentiment was cut with a Stitched Rectangle die.

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

There are so many beautiful Designer Series Paper collections that will soon be retiring. One of my favourites is Nature’s Poem.

Blue Marble

Hello Everyone,

Today’s project uses one of the gorgeously detailed background stamp. This stamp retires at the end of May.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the background image. Sponge dauber were used to apply the different coloured inks, working from light to dark and cleaning the stamp each time.

The sentiment from the Rooted in Nature stamp set was stamped onto vellum and heat embossed with copper powder.

The vellum was wrapped around the background and adhered to a Night of Navy card base.

A pearlized Doily was added behind the vellum. A scattering of sequins finished the card.

Wonderful Doily #GDP184

Hello Everyone,

This week is a Case the Designer challenge!

See what the Design Team have created with the sketch here

This is what I made…. I used the idea of layering a Doily, a label and another focal element and added a bold sentiment to the bottom.

I die cut the large doily from a white card layer and adhered this to a Berry Burst card base. The sentiment was stamped at the bottom of the card with Berry Burst ink.

A Pretty Label was punched from Sahara Sand card stock and added with dimensionals.

The blooms from the Dear Doily set were stamped using the Stamparatus tool with Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst inks. I secured these to the card with Multipurpose glue.

A die cut bow was added along with some pearls to complete the card.

Diamonds and Leaves

Hello Everyone,

Today’s project was inspired by this sketch from Jill….

I added my own twist on things by varying the size of the diamonds.

I chose Blackberry Bliss to make the card base.

Two additional smaller squares were cut from Fresh Fig card stock. These were adhered with dimensionals.

Leaves from the Rooted in Nature stamp set were stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink and die cut with the coordinating Framelits. These were added to each of the squares.

The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of card stock and adhered with dimensionals.

Just Black & White

Good Morning,

Today’s project is a Facebook challenge entry….. The theme is black and white.

I went straight to the free Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper knowing there were a number of black and white designs.

I adhered the paper to a Whisper White card base.

The white panel was stamped with Timeless Textures before adding to the card.

The sentiments were selected from the Rooted in Nature stamp set. A 2-1/4 inch circle punch was used to cut the largest, whilst the other was stamped straight on to a narrow strip of card. These were adhered with dimensionals.

The flowers were stamped and punched and were added to the card along with some sequins.
