Stampin' Up! Bloom Where You're Planted - Birthday Card

-

 


I have a little box in my drawer where I put excess die cuts and stamped images that I cut and changed my mind about (what do you with your little extra bits??) I decided to make a card with some excess bits today for my brother's birthday and this is what I came up with!

I've been using this beautiful In-Colour, Evening Evergreen, and seeing some new product with other Demonstrators in our On Stage events with Stampin' Up! as well - those green leaves and grey dots come from a beautiful new suite of products called "Heart & Home" that will be available when the new mini catalogue is released in January!


The circle of Designer Series Paper (DSP) is the star of the show on this card and comes from the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP. I layered it with a circle in Sahara Sand, and tucked-in some dies-cut leaves underneath. The strip of Evening Evergreen cardstock was embossed with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Emboss Folder and then torn and adhered to the side. To add something more, I used a Black Stampin' Write Marker to flick some specks of ink underneath to make the images pop even more.


If you are interested in any of the products I've used today, there are links to my store below, and stay tuned for new products coming soon!

Happy stamping!

Stampin' Up! One Sheet Wonder - Paper Blooms

-
Image
  I made 14 beautiful cards from 1 sheet of 12"x12" (31.5cmx31.5cm) Designer Series Paper! And guess what! I got the whole stack of Designer Series Paper for free!! In the month of February, if you spend $90 or more, you can choose a free item (and this is one of the options!). I designed a breakdown of the sheet of DSP to suit Australian card sizes, and so that nothing goes to waste. I then layered each piece with some Night of Navy cardstock by adding 3mm to each measurement (that way, just a peak of colour borders the design piece).  The cute little butterflies come from the Floating & Fluttering set - it has a big stamp as part of the set that has a college of butterflies and leaves, that matches with a die in the coordinating set. I stamped 4 of these and cut them out in a flash! ...and I used all of them across the 14 cards as a feature. I used a combination of sentiments from other sets (see full list below). I chose a selection of ribbons and sentiments to go with...

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance - Thanks Card

-
Image
  There's a beautiful new bundle available called Butterfly Brilliance, which includes a stamp set, dies, some designer series paper, and some specialty paper: Today I want to show you a card I made using the beautiful dies from this bundle - There are 6 large butterfly dies, that have an extra die to cut out a detailed overlay, which is featured in my card today. The background is made with vellum, layered onto some white cardstock. I then used a variety of Stampin' Blends to colour the vellum, starting with the darker of the blues and working out. I then flecked it with some isopropyl alcohol to make the bubbly look. Once properly dry, I used the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to lay out a line of adhesive and stuck the Gilded Leafing Embellishment on top of it, pressing it down on the glue, then rubbing off the excess. It leaves an uneven smattering of gold that is just perfect! the Fine-Tip Glue Pen works great for this as it doesn't dry tacky so any exposed glue once dry will not i...

Crazy Crafters Swaps - 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue

-
Image
  It's swaps time again! For those of you who don't know, I'm part of the Crazy Crafters Team, and for each new catalogue, we will do "swaps" where we each make 10 of the same card, and send them off to our team leader, who mixes them up and sends us 10 different cards back. I love it because I get to see the creativity of my peers, but also some new sets that I may not have considered before :) This is the card I made and sent to my peers using the Expressions in Ink suite of products - I used some of the designer series paper to layer underneath and used the large die cut in Basic White, and made a white layer with a circle shape cut out. The sentiment was stamped in white embossing onto Basic Black cardstock and cut around the edge, then finished it with some Matte Black Dots. A full list of products used is listed at the bottom, but first, check out the swaps I received from my talented peers! Aren't they a talented bunch! You can find all of the products ...
