Just Awesome #FMS330

It’s Friday again already. So time to share my entry in this week’s Freshly Made Sketch challenge from Jen Brum.

You can see what the design team created here!

This is my design.

A piece of Myths and Magic DSP was adhered across the to portion of a Whisper White card layer.

Using Epic Celebrations, I stamped the guitar and the word “awesome” with Dapper Denim ink.

The sentiment was positioned below the DSP. Some Lemon Lime Twist mini striped ribbon added a pop of colour.

The guitar was fussy cut add adhered flat the the card layer.

The whole piece was then adhered to a white card base with dimensionals.

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

Eclectic Thank You

Good Morning!

There are only few days left of Sale-a-bration, I am really going to miss this fantastic stamp set.

I started by stamping the circles from the set with Peekaboo Peach and Flirty Flamingo inks. First, second and third generation stamping gives added texture.

The speckles were added with Sweet Sugarplum ink.

The panel was adhered to a black card base.

The sentiment was stamped on to a strip of white card stock. Two circles were punch from vellum and adhered behind the sentiment before adding to the card with dimensionals.

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

Sale-a-bration Cheer

Hi Everyone,

Sale-a-bration is almost over…. But there is still time to get you hands on some great free products.

Today I’m using the Bubbles and Fizz designer series paper as my background. None of the scraps were measured. I just put the together in a way that looked good.

Two bottles from the Bubble Over stamp set were stamped with Garden Green and Wild Wasabi inks and then die cut with the coordinating framelits. These were adhered with dimensionals.

Finally, I added a sentiment from the same stamp set using Calypso Coral ink.

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

Here for You

Hi Everyone,

I just love these mini note cards in the Spring Summer catalogue.

Last week the team were discussing the colour trends that can be seen on the high street. From linen to homeware, soft pastel shades of mint, pink, taupe and grey are popular right now.

These colours inspired the card today.

Butterflies from the Blossoming Basket Sale-a-bration set were stamped with Pool Party, Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate ink.

The coordinating card stock colours were cut with punches, 1 inch, 1-1/8 inch scallop and 1-1/4 inch. These were adhered with snail adhesive.

Some Basic Grey shimmer ribbon, (also a Sale-a-bration item), was added in a zig-zag to the card base. The circles were added over the top.

The sentiment was stamped on to a strip of Whisper White card stock.

To accommodate the ribbon and card stock layer beneath, this was adhered using dimensionals at each end.

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

Simply Amazing

Welcome to another Pootles Team blog hop! This time we are celebrating and showcasing the free products available during Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-a-bration event which is running now until the end of March.

There are lots of us taking part. A link to all the other blogs will be at the bottom of this post… Just click on the blue button.

My project features the Amazing You stamp set and Celebrate You dies.

I decided to use a simple black, white and silver colour scheme.

The background was created with the sunburst image from the stamp set. These were stamped with clear versamark ink and heat embossed with silver powder.

A Stamp-a-ma-jig helped me to line up the stamp to create a circular design.

The word “amazing” was die cut from black card stock and positioned on the card.

“You”, “are simply” and “to me” were all stamped with Memento ink on to a strip of Whisper White card stock and cut down to size.

These pieces were adhered to the card with Fast Fuse.

To complete the card, I also added a few rhinestone embellishments.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Monochrome Wishes

Hi Folks,

When you don’t know what colour to use… Why not try a monochrome look.

This was partly inspired by the Petal Passion DSP which I have used on the background.

The sentiment is taken from a Sale-a-bration set, Happy Wishes. You may choose this with a qualifying order. Check out Sale-a-bration offers here!

I used an old favourite floral set, Falling Flowers and it’s coordinating dies to decorate the top corner of the card.

The flowers were shaped with a stylus and adhered with glue dots. The centers were adorned with Rhinestone jewels. These are self adhesive and so easy to use if you like a bit of extra bling.

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

Bubble Over

Hi Everyone,

Today I am using products from Bubble Over suite, including a Sale-a-bration DSP.

I prepared a card base using Garden Green card stock and adhered this fun DSP to the front.

The bottles have been die cut from the paper too. Alternatively, these could be cut with scissors.

Straws were die cut from Whisper White card stock. Some multipurpose liquid glue was used to secure these to the back of each bottle.

I adhered the smaller bottles first, then added larger ones in the middle with dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Garden Green ink onto Lemon Lime Twist card stock. The ends were cut with the Everyday Label punch.

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