Stampin’ Up! – Stampin' with inkybutterfly

Card Ideas with the Thankful Garden Decorative Masks!

Hello Everyone!

Today’s card features the Thankful Garden Decorative Masks. I’ve had these a little while but hadn’t got round to using them until now.

I had a little help choosing my colour scheme… 😂

Colour combination inspiration can come from all sorts of places, fabrics, wallpapers, that kind of thing.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

The images were die cut and positioned on the card base with die cuts from Perennial Postage.

The same dies were used to cut the sentiment and embellished with a Fresh Freesia cardstock banner and Starburst Sequins.

I used the inks differently for these samples and used Daffodil Delight card bases!

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Use Up Those Cardstock Scraps!

Hello Everyone!

If you are anything like me, you probably have a collection of scraps that you just can’t throw away, so today I’m sharing a scrap buster idea.

For my card, I have used ¼ inch strips of In Colour cardstock all cut from pieces from my scrap bin.

The “floating” element also uses acetate that comes with the photopolymer stamps which would normally be thrown away too.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Coordinating ink was used to stamp the wording. The block style lettering makes it easy to line up.

Here is the original version of this card using the retiring colours!

One Layer Card and a Colour Challenge!

Hello Everyone!

I’m using something new to me today with a bit of masking and a colour challenge!

The sentiment and dragonfly were added with memento ink, and coloured with Soft Sea Foam and Fresh Freesia.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

Some sequins add a bit of shimmer.

Simply Fantastic Card featuring Everyday Arches

Hello Everyone!

I recently used the Everyday Arches stamp set for another project (check back on Friday for that one) and loved the result… So here is another design that I have created, I just love it!

For the focal image I have used this gorgeous image from the Mixed Florals stamp set.

I used Stampin’ Blends to colour, softening the look with the Colour Lifter.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

I opted for a bold black sentiment to emphasize the arched shape and the florals were added with dimensionals.

Here is the original Lemon Lolly version.

Encircled in Nature Three Ways!

Hello Everyone!

I have had this bundle on my shelf for ages, I can’t believe I haven’t inked this because it is fabulous…. And is now on the last chance list!

Sooooo … I’m cramming THREE ideas in today’s post – get it before it is gone for good!

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

This one is my favourite.

The scene was created on a Nested Essential die cut leaving the edge white.

The same ink was used on the card base layer and then added some iridescent striped ribbon.

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

I used the larger single tree image for this forest of Pretty in Pink, Petunia Pop, Berry Burst and Blackberry Bliss.

This is on Very Vanilla cardstock for a different look.

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

For this one I used the dies to create an aperture in some designer series paper.

More die cuts embellished the frame along with some Pecan Pie stitched ribbon.
