LITTLE BIRDIES THINKING OF YOU

Today’s card features the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper and the Wintery Tree Tops Bundle.  The birds on this DSP are just adorable and easy to fussy cut (some can be cut with the coordinating dies) so they are easy to create with.

Here is what I came up with…

So, this card is a super simple and quick card to create.  The card base is Smoky Slate cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I cut a layer of Basic Black to 4 x 5 ¼” and added a piece of the DSP that measures 3 7/8 x 5 1/8” to it and added that to the center of my card base.  I stamped my sentiment “thinking of you always” from the stamp set onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and die cut it using one of the Stylish Shapes Dies (I did cut the right end off) and added it to the right side about 1 ½” above the bottom using Dimensionals.  Then I fussy cut out one of the birds and one of the branches and berries from the Designer Series Paper.  I popped these up with Dimensionals overlapping my sentiment just a touch.  Like I said this card was simple to create and came together in minutes.   

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:

SENDING LOVE

Today’s card features the new Regal Flora bundle and the beautiful Regal Winter Designer Series Paper.  I love the color palate in this paper, those rich colors like, Berry Burst, Blackberry Bliss, Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce and the one surprise, Wild Wheat.  This paper is so rich it can stand all alone on a card as the focal point so that is what this card was intended to show.

Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Highland Heather cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I added a layer of Night of Navy that measured 4 x 5 ¼” and then a layer of that beautiful Regal Winter DSP that measures 3 ¾ x 5” (I picked one that shows off night of navy and highland heather).  That pretty much made my card.

To finish the card off I stamped the sentiment “wishing I WERE THERE TO GIVE YOU A hug” onto a scrap of Highland Heather cardstock with Night of Navy ink and then I die cut that using the die from the Regal Flora bundle (I love this cute sentiment label die) and I looped a piece of Iridescent Striped Trim Ribbon behind it and attached the whole thing to the center front of the card using Dimensionals.

FLOATING THANKS

Today’s card features the Thoughtful Wishes Stamp Set and the coordinating Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper.  I also used one of the dies from the Spotlight on Nature die set, I just love how versatile these dies are. 

Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Granny Apple Green cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I then cut a piece of the Thoughtful Journey DSP into a 3 ½” square.  Once that was cut I started on the left side and cut it into strips, the first strip was cut at ½”, the next at ¾”, the next at 1” which left the final strip which was 1 ¼” (keep your strips in order for easier placement later).  Once that was all cut, I cut a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock to 3 x 4 ¼”.  Once I had that pretty peacock piece cut, I laid it with the 4 ¼” side going landscape and began adding my strips.  These are arranged with equal distance between each of them and on each end.

 (NOTE: here is a tip I figured out that really helps with the placement, I used repositionable tape which I bought at staples and added just a tiny bit to each strip.  This allowed me to reposition them until I had them all where I wanted them but it kept them all in place.  Once I had them positioned, I removed one at a time and added my adhesive)

Once I had my strips all on, I used Dimensionals and popped the whole thing up on the center of the card.  I stamped my sentiment “Thanks” onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Pretty Peacock Ink and then die cut it with one of the circles from the Spotlight on Nature die set.  I added that directly to the front of the card. 

For the inside I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and stamped one of the floral images from the Thoughtful Wishes Stamp set onto it again with Pretty Peacock Ink.  I added some interest to that buy quickly adding Wink of Stella to it so that it picked up a little of the ink color and put it throughout the image.

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:
