Stampin' Up! Hand Penned Petals - Birthday Card

Image
  This suite of products is just so delicately beautiful - I think you could chuck together anything from this suite and have a lovely card! For this one, I used the stamp set, dies and DSP (designer series paper) from the suite and took a sentiment from the Timeless Tropical set. Lately I have not been feeling very creative, and have found it difficult to build the motivation to make cards. Catalogue to the rescue! Did you know our catalogues are also called "Idea Books"?? When I'm not feeling the crafting mojo, I flick through the catalogue to get inspiration (Pinterest is good too!) and I got inspiration for today's card from this image from page 25 of the catalogue: As you can see, I didn't use any of the same products, but I did a bit of colouring, a bit of embossing, and used a pretty strip of DSP! So mine actually turned out looking quite different, but the creative mojo kicked in!  The hand-penned stamp set has stamps that act as colour-filler for the flow

Stampin' Up! Expressions in Ink - Birthday Card

Image
  Expressions in Ink is such a beautiful bundle, and so easy to make a simple but fantastic card! I've seen others make similar cards with a die cut of the flowers and a variety of colours and arrangements around, and this is my version! So simple to do - I held the die cut over where I wanted it to go and lined-up the stamp, pulled away the die cut, and stamped! I finished it off with a sentiment embossed in white, raised with dimensionals, a bow made from the gold Elegant Trim, adhered with a mini glue dot, and some sequins from the ephemera pack. If you are interested in any of the products used in my card today, please see below links to my store.
