CELEBRATE WITH PERENIAL LAVENDAR

Today’s card features the Perennial Lavender stamp set and Designer Series Paper along with the Wanted to Say Dies.  I love how all these different products coordinate and work so well together.   

Here is what I came up with…

 

The card base is Pretty Peacock cardstock cut to 4 ¼ x 11” and scored at 5 ½”.  I then cut a layer of Gorgeous Grape cardstock that measured 3 ¾ x 5”, to this I added three strips of the Perennial Lavender DSP that measured 1 1/8 x 4”.  I attached these with an equal border at each side and the top.  I wrapped a piece of ribbon around the bottom of this layer and tied a square knot (this ribbon is retired but there are lots of options that would work).  I attached this layer to the card base.

Then I die cut the shadow of the word “Celebrate” from the Wanted to Say Dies out of Gorgeous Grape cardstock and the work “Celebrate” from the dies out of a piece of Soft Shimmer Specialty Paper (I used the Pretty Peacock paper).  I attached those two together and used Mini Dimensionals to pop them up on the card front.  I added one of the cute Paper Butterfly Accents and three of the Glossy Dot Assortment dots to the front.

For the inside I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and stamped one of the cute stems of leaves from the Painted Lavender Stamp Set on the bottom right corner (I used that same stamp to stamp it on the envelope) using Pretty Peacock Ink. 

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:

MAGNOLIA MOOD JUST A NOTE

Today’s card features the Magnolia Mood Bundle which is a new online exclusive.  I knew the minute I saw this bundle I wanted it.  I could just imagine all kinds of things I could do with it and it has not disappointed. 

Here is one of the cards I came up with…

The card base is Moody Mauve cardstock cut to 4 ¼ x 11” and scored at 5 ½ “.  I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼”, the first I used on the front of the card and the second on the inside of the card.  For the front I stamped my sentiment “just a note to let you know that you are loved” from the stamps in the Magnolia Mood Bundle on the upper right corner using Pebbled Path ink.  I then grabbed a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock and stamped the large Magnolia image (also from the stamp set) onto it using the Pebbled Path ink.  I die cut it with the coordinating die from the bundle and colored it using the light markers from the Parakeet Party, Petal Pink and Wild Wheat Stampin’ Blends.  Before attaching this to the basic white card layer I wrapped a piece of the Moody Mauve Textured Ribbon around it about 1 ½” front the bottom and attached the ends to the back of the layer.  I attached the layer to the card base and then attached the die cut to it using Dimensionals. 

For some additional interest I die cut two of the leaf sets from the coordinating dies out of scraps of Parakeet Party cardstock and tucked them up under the magnolia image again using Dimensionals.  For my final addition I added three of the Parakeet Party colored gems from the Tinsel Gem 4 pack. 

For the inside of the card I simply stamped the large image part on and part off the Basic White cardstock and colored it with the same blends I used on the front of the card.

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:

LATTE LOVE FUN FOLD

Today’s card features some new online products from the Latte Love Suite Collection.  When I first saw this collection I was drawn to it but unsure.  So as I often do I waited a few weeks to think about how I would use it before I ordered it.  Sure glad I decided to order it because I have been having some fun with it for sure.

I saw a card by Peggy Murwin on Pintrest and I suddenly knew it was perfect for this set, hHere is what I came up with…

There are actually two card bases to this fun fold and they are cut from Pecan Pie cardstock 4 ¼ x 8” and scored at 5 ½” x 8 ½” and 3 x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I cut a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock to 3 7/8 x 5 1/8” and stamped the coffee stains from the Latte Love Bundle all over it using Early Espresso Ink.  I then mounted this onto a piece of Early Espresso cardstock that measured 4 x 5 ¼” and attached that to the inside of my first card base.  With that done I could move onto card base number 2.

I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 2 ¾ x 4” and stamped one of the coffee stains on the bottom left corner and adhered it inside card base 2.  I then centered that card base onto the first one and attached it.  To finish off card base 1, I cut a piece of Early Espresso cardstock to 2 ¼ x 4” and attached a piece of the A Little Latte 12 x 12” Designer Series Paper (the one with the little string of hearts) that measured 2 1/8 x 3 7/8 to it.  I then attached this to the front right of card base 1. 

Now to finish off the front of card base 2.  I cut a piece of Early Espresso cardstock to 2 ¾ x 4” and to that I attached a piece of the A Little Latte 12 x 12” Designer Series Paper (this time the blue and white stripes) that measured 2 5/8 x 3 7/8” and then attached that to the front of card base 2.  I then die cut out two of the coffee cups from the Designer Series Paper using the dies from the Latte Love Bundle and attached one directly to the front and popped the second one up with some Dimensionals.  I stamped the sentiment “you’re the best part of my day” onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using Early Espresso Ink and the die cut it out using one of the Nested Essentials Dies and popped it up on the front with Dimensionals.  My final addition was three of the Adhesive Backed Swirl Dots.

THOUGHTFUL EXPRESSIONS FUN FOLD

Today’s card features the Thoughtful Expressions bundle and the Forever Love Designer Series Paper.  I really liked the colors in the Designer Series Paper and thought the two pieces I used were perfect for this fun fold.

Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Lost Lagoon cardstock cut to 7 x 5 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.   The Designer Series paper is cut to 2 ½ x 5 ½” (centered on left side) and 1 ¼ x 5 ½”, three is also a strip of Gold Foil that measures 3/8” x 5 ½” (this is attached to the right side of the 1 ¼ x 5 ½” piece of Designer Series Paper (then that whole piece is attached butted right up to the right side of the card base.  There is a piece of Basic White cardstock that measures 2 ½ x 5 ½” that is for the inside of the card.  

I stamped one of the little flowers from the stamp set in the bundle onto the inside using Pretty Peacock Ink.  To finish the front of my card I stamped my sentiment from the bundle onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock and die cut it using the 4^th from the largest of the dies in the bundle.  I then die cut a scrap of Pretty Peacock with the 3^rd from the largest of the dies from the bundle.  I die cut two of the little leaves from the dies in the bundle out of scraps of Gold Foil as well.  I adhered my white die cut to my pretty peacock die cut and then used Dimensionals and adhered just the left side to my card so that I could open the fun fold.  I tucked the two little gold foil leaves up under the sentiment and adhered them.  That’s all there is to this card it really is simple and uses minimal supplies.

LAYERED FLORALS MEETS WHITE INK

Today’s card features a new 3D Embossing Folder named Layered Florals.  The depth of the embossing on this folder is really special and I wanted to do something to highlight that.  So I went to work using different techniques and this is what I came up with…

 

The card base is Starry Sky cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I then cut a piece of Gold Foil to 4 x 5 ¼” and before doing anything else with it I cut the second to the smallest of the labels from the Thoughtful Expressions Dies out to use later.  Once that was cut out I embossed the gold layer with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders and added it to my card base.  I cut a piece of Starry Sky cardstock to 3 ¾ x 5” and embossed it with the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder. 

Once it was embossed, I simply used a Sponge Dauber and gently added White Craft Ink to the raised areas to make them really pop.  Remember go light because you can add more but you can’t take it away once it is there.  I stamped my sentiment “Hope You’re Feeling Better Soon” from the So Sincere Stamp Set onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock using VersaMark Ink and added Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it.  I cut this out using the smallest of those labels from the Thoughtful Expressions Dies and attached it to the larger one I had cut from the gold.  I twisted a little of the Simply Elegant Trim around the back of the sentiment allowing it to stick out on both sides and then attached this whole thing to my card using Dimensionals.  The final addition was three of the gold sequins from the Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins. 

For the inside I took a piece of Basic White cardstock that measured 4 x 5 ¼” and embossed just about the bottom 1” of it using that Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder.  Once it was embossed, I flipped it over and lined up the edge with my cutter and used the score blade to add a nice little line to separate the areas, I love how it looks.  I also embossed the flap on the envelope to give the whole card a coordinating look.

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:
