Stampin’ Up! – Page 31 – Stampin' with inkybutterfly

Best of Friends

Hello Everyone,

Using Designer Series Paper is a fast way to make impactful cards.

The Bird Ballad collection needs little by way of embellishments.

I added a sentiment which had been heat embossed with white powder on black card stock.

For some extra interest, I stamped flowers and coloured them with Stampin’ Blends. The colour lifter helped achieve a soft blend.

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

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Simply Wonderful

Hello Everyone,

I really love to use my Stampin’ Blends and this floral image is perfect to use with them.

Line images were stamped with water based Memento Ink. This will not bleed when the image is coloured with solvent based Markers.

I find that the blending is easier when a layer of light ink is laid down first. Then add in the shading and blend the lines out with a lighter colour.

I added the sentiment with dimensionals and layered the card front with Old Olive and Mango Melody card stock.

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.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Very Versaille Thank You

Hello Everyone,

I just love the mixture of images in the Very Versaille stamp set!

This background was really simple to create.

I wanted a more vintage feel, so I used some Very Vanilla card stock to stamp on for a change.

I positioned the text first, stamping this with Crumb Cake ink.

The foliage was stamped next with Mossy Meadow ink. This was done twice so the leaves ran along the left hand edge of the card.

I decided to heat emboss the ornate frame image with gold embossing powder.

I did try to add the sentiment directly to the card but it got lost on the background. To get round this, I stamped it again on to some scrap card and cut it with a 1″ punch.

The card front was layered onto Mossy Meadow card stock and added to a Crumb Cake card base.

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

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Gratitude

Hello Everyone,

If you love Colouring, you will love the Seaside Notions stamp set. I really enjoyed using my Stampin’ Blends for this card.

For the background, the seaweed was stamped with Soft Sea Foam ink on to a Stitched Rectangle.

This, was adhered to the centre of a white card base. A frame was added with dimensionals.

The seahorse and shells were stamped with Basic Gray ink and coloured in with Stampin’ Blends. The images were fussy cut.

The sentiment was cut with the Timeless Label Punch.

Cards in a Flash

Hello Everyone,

Have you seen all the amazing Designer Series Papers in this years catalogue?

These cards use the See a Silhouette collection…. They are so pretty, I didn’t want to cover them up!

I simply added sentiments that were stamped with black ink. For contrast, these were mounted on black card stock before adhering to the cards with dimensionals.

It was so easy, I made two… This pattern is the reverse of the first.

Each 12 by 12 inch sheet can make 6 standard cards in this way… with 12 sheets in a pack, that’s a lot of cards!

Life is So Good

Hello Everyone,

I love the flexibility that two-step Stamping offers…. These flowers could be any colour to suit any recipient.

I originally stamped the images on to a Whisper White card layer starting with the foliage.

The flower heads were added next, these were easy to line up by looking through the clear block.

The sentiment was stamped next with Memento black ink. Once this was in place, I added the little dragonflies.

I opted to die cut the images with a Stitched Rectangle Die. I adhered this to a white card base with dimensionals.

Daisy Trio #GDP194

Hello Everyone,

This week is a sketch challenge at the Global Design Project!
See what the Design Team have created here.

……. And this is my project…..

For this project, I have used the Daisy Lane bundle and teamed this with the Garden Lane Designer Series Paper.

The greens within the pattern inspired the use of Mint Macaron to stamp my daisies. These were punched out and shaped with a large ball stylus and adhered to a small piece of Mint Macaron card stock.

The DSP was adhered to a white card base, and the Daisy panel was secured towards the top.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped on to Garden Green card stock, (a colour also featured in the paper) and heat embossed in white.

A small bow was tied from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo to complete the card.

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

Inspire.Create #045

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 theme challenge.

The design team have made some wonderful samples as inspiration. You can see them here.

I have used the emboss resist technique for my project;

I picked out the Stargazing stamp set…. I thought the stars would be perfect for this technique.

First, I applied Balmy Blue ink to some white card stock where the sentiment would be. I then used versamark ink to stamp the images. These were embossed with clear powder.

I then added Pacific Point and Night of Navy ink over the top. A damp cloth rubbed away the excess ink.

The panel was die cut with a Stitched Rectangle and layered on to Whisper White card stock.

A Night of Navy card base was embossed with the Swirls & Curls embossing folder before adding the topper with dimensionals.

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

Wishing You The Best

Hello Everyone,

So sometimes less is more… And with this card I have left lots of white space, leaving the focus on the centre.

The flower is from the Inspiring Iris set. I really like carnations so I chose this image to work with.

Tis is a two srep step stamp set, the outline was, stamped first with Basic Gray. Colour was added with the coordinating images with Old Olive and Flirty Flamingo inks.

The sentiment was stamped to the right, though now I think underneath would have looked better.

I ended up die cutting the image with a Stitched Rectangle die.

A white card layer was also die cut to create a stitched border. I then decided a coloured background was need to make the centre panel pop.

A piece of Crumb Cake card stock was inlaid on to the card base before adding the main image with dimensionals.

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