Fabulous Friday: Corner Fold card

 

  Hello and Happy Monday! Well this is embarrassing!  It is becoming a weekly thing now to publish my Fabulous Friday post a few days late. My excuse is that my son was in a HUGE championship swim meet for the entire state of Virginia this weekend that our team hosted and I was at the pool working all weekend (I am an announcer so my voice is raw today) so I was too exhausted to remember that I had not finished my post... sorry about that!   Once again, I hope you'll enjoy the post a bit late.  This week (last week?) over on the Sisters in Stamping blog Karla asked us to share projects made with our favorite fun fold.  I had made a Corner Fold card previously and thought it was about time to make one again (see that post here). 

 

 Since this Magnolia Lane DSP is soooo gorgeous I wanted it to be the star of the card.  I even cut out a flower and added it to the bottom of the card next to the sentiment.  This beautiful sentiment is from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set that thankfully did not retire.  The "Thank You" is a die cut that I simply cut from the center of the petal pink card stock (see what I did there?) that is layered under the DSP.  

 

  But that also meant that you could now see it when you opened the card - more DSP to the rescue!

 

 Here is the flower that I cut from the DSP - I did cut two of the leaves off and re-position them so they didn't overhang too much. I popped it up with stampin' dimensionals - so pretty and I didn't have to color it!

 

 

  Here is another look at my card.  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration from the Everyday Occasions section of the Annual catalog please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created last week.   Be sure to check back tomorrow as I post this week's post!

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!

July 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Color Your World 3 ways with Stampin' Blends, Aqua Painters and Stampin' Sponges

  Hi there and welcome to the July 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month we are featuring coloring techniques and I chose to use three different techniques to "color my world" - aqua painters, stampin' blend markers and a stampin' sponge. This quick and easy card literally took me about 15 minutes to put together - I honestly think it took me longer to get the bow tied just right than it took to color the image using my aqua painter.  I love how easy it is to use an aqua painter grabbing ink from the lid of my ink pad. Using an aqua painter with watercolor paper makes is super easy to quickly push the color around.  

 

 

  This layout is super simple and I added just a hint of texture to the Seaside Spray card stock using the Subtle dynamic texture folder.  

 

 

    For some reason the Seaside Spray ink used to watercolor the sky is looking gray-ish in the photo.  In real life it coordinates beautifully with the card stock.  I used Petal Pink ink for the piggy, Garden Green ink for the grass and leaf and Daffodil Delight ink for the flower.  Don't forget when watercoloring it is best to use StazOn ink.  However, you really should stick to red rubber stamps as StazOn ink isn't good for photopolymer stamps.  When I use those, I grab my Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad and use my Stampin' Blends markers to color.  Speaking of Stampin' Blends, did you notice the little rhinestone in the center of the flower? I colored it using the Light Real Red Stampin' Blends marker (did you know you can color pearls and rhinestones with these?!?!?). 

 

  And how about that ribbon - I didn't have the new Petal Pink one yet so I colored the silver-edge ribbon with a stampin' sponge and my Petal Pink ink pad.  For this I recommend a light touch - you can always add more ink but can never take it away.  That is a good rule, in general, when using a stampin' sponge.

 

 

  Here is one more view of my card that was colored using an Aqua Painter, stampin' sponge and a Stampin' Blends marker. For even more coloring inspiration, be sure to check out the rest of the projects on the Hop by using the links below.

 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!!

Fabulous Friday: Everyday Occasions masculine birthday card

 

  Hello and Happy Thursday! What happened? I forgot to publish this post last Friday... so sorry about that!  Summer is such a hectic time in my household - can you relate?!  Once again, I hope you'll enjoy the post a bit late.  This week (last week?) over on the Sisters in Stamping blog Jennifer asked us to share projects made with our products from the Everyday Occasions section of the Annual catalog found on pages 12-71.  I decided to change it up and use the Dashing Deer Christmas stamp set to make a masculine birthday card using a card sketch I found on Pinterest:

 

 I decided to turn the layout and create a card with Landscape orientation.  I am really loving this Pretty Peacock In Color and it pairs well with crumb cake, soft suede and mint macaron for a great "guy" card.  This deer may have some fancy antlers, but I think I pulled off a non-Christmas card with it with the help of the Well Said stamp set which can also be found in the Everyday  Occasions section of the Annual catalog.  And I am so happy that the Braided Linen thread carried over from the Holiday Catalog!  It adds such a great texture to this card.

 

  You can see the various layers from this angle - I love using stampin' dimensionals to elevate elements on the card.

 

 

  I was able to die-cut the deer very easily thanks to the coordinating Detailed Deer thinlits.  The circle was cut using the Stitched Shapes thinlits and the banner I just notched with my Paper Snips.

 

 

  Here's a close-up of the inside of the card - I added a a deer image in the bottom corner and then the sentiment was stamped on a strip of the mint macaron card stock.  To be honest, I stamped it crooked so had to improvise... looks okay, thought, right?!

 

 

  Here is another look at my card.  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration from the Everyday Occasions section of the Annual catalog please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created last week.   Be sure to check back tomorrow as I post this week's post!

Fabulous Friday: Magnolia Lane is my Favorite Suite!

 

  Hello and Happy Monday! Last week was a hectic one and my son was in a swim meet all weekend so I wasn't able to get my project completed in time, but I hope you'll enjoy the post a few days late.  This week (last week?) over on the Sisters in Stamping blog Jennifer asked us to share projects made with our favorite Product Suite from the new catalog for Fabulous Friday.  As I am sure you know by now from this card that I shared last week and this card that I shared two weeks ago that my favorite is the Magnolia Lane suite shown below.  I decided to make a card and coordinating candy favor decorated with a paper flower that I created using the Magnolia Memory dies. I've seen these all over Pinterest and wanted to give it a try.

 

  There are so many great products in this suite and I used a few - the stamp/die bundle and DSP.

 

 

 

  Here are a few photos of my card.  I used a border die to cut the real red card stock - I love how it mimics the lines of the border stamp and has a nice embossed edge.  And the flower and leaves were also cut from dies - there are solid and detailed dies for both.  I love that!

 

  Here's a close-up of the inside of the card - I added a strip of the DST at the bottom and a detail flower cut from whisper white for a subtle accent in the center.  I really like the texture it added - so pretty!

 

 

  Here is my little candy favor.  It's basically a 2-4-6-8 box but I cut it at 5" instead of 5-1/2" so it's a little shorter.  The flower was added with dimensionals and I held it closed with a tiny binder clip.

 

 

  Here is a close-up of the flower.  This came together pretty quickly with just a few passes through my die-cutting machine and Tombow glue.  Love this!  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration from the new Product Suites please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week. 

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous week!

June 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Welcome to the New Catalog!!

  Hi there and welcome to the June 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month we are featuring BRAND NEW products from the newly released 2019-2020 Annual Catalog (see below for a link to download it).  Earlier I shared some projects using the new Magnolia Lane suite and today I am sharing a new exclusive stamp set just for Hosts called Soft Spring along with the new Stitched Nested Label dies and some of the new In Colors for 2019-2021.

 

 

  The new catalog launch is always super exciting and this year's catalog is full of awesome new products.  If you haven't seen the catalog yet, please click the graphic link above to download it or check out my Stampin' Up! store here.

 

  I love using card sketches and I found the one above by the Paper Players on Pinterest (see that pin here).

 

 

  The DSP is from the 2019-2021 In Color pack and are Pretty Peacock (base) and Purple Posy (two squares).  I paired these with Gorgeous Grape card stock and I think the colors work great together.  The Soft Spring stamp set is a two-step stamp set and part of the DistINKtive line that have a special texture that gives added depth and dimension in a single step (notice the leaves in the stamped image).

 

 

  Here's another view that lets you see the silver thread that I added under the focal image to add a little texture to the card.  It plays off the bling of the rhinestones as well as the Wink of Stella that I added to the dragonfly's wings.  I used a stamp to color the leaves with Pretty Peacock ink (after stamping off once to give it a lighter color) and then used the Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape stampin' write markers to color the flowers.

 

 

  Here is a close-up of the dragonfly - I colored the wings with my crushed curry marker and then added the Wink of Stella after that dried.  It is very hard to capture in a photograph, but is very shimmery in real life.  You can also see the cool stitching that the dies added to the card stock panel borders as well as the silver thread. 

 

 

  On the inside of the card I added a strip of the DSP at the bottom and stamped the wisteria image in the upper corner.  This is a two-step stamp - the detail image was inked with Tuxedo black ink and then I overstamped to color in the flowers with gorgeous grape ink and the leaves with pretty peacock (stamped off).  Simple, but I like decorating the inside of my cards, too.

 

 

  Here is one more view of my card - so fun playing with new products!!  For even more new product inspiration, be sure to check out the rest of the projects on the Hop by using the links below.

 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!!

Fabulous Friday: Happy National Strawberry Shortcake Day!!

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! Did you know that today, June 14th is National Strawberry Shortcake Day?  It is my favorite cake and was always my birthday cake growing up since strawberries are in season at the end of May.  In honor of that, we are using this graphic as our color inspiration this week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog with a red, yellow and white color combo for Fabulous Friday. 

 

 

 

  So I cheated a little and used some old olive for the leaves, but how stunning is this large flower image from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set set when colored with daffodil delight?! I kept my card layout super clean and simple so that the large flower image was really the main focal point of the card.

 

  I first stamped the large flower image on my whisper white card stock piece then colored just the leaves and stem with my Stampin' Blends markers.  Once dry, I ran it through with the Subtle 3D texture folder.  This is a carryover item from last year's annual catalog but is currently not in stock so you can't order it just yet if you don't have it already.  It really gives the look of linen I think and adds just a subtle (hence the name) bit of texture to the card stock which I love!  I stamped the sentiment on a piece of scrap whisper white card stock and then cut that out with the Pretty Label punch - super clean and simple but I really like how it sets off against the textured card front.

 

 

  Here's a close-up of the magnolia flower - I stamped it on a piece of scrap whisper white card stock, colored it with my Daffodil Delight and Real Red Stampin' Blend markers and then fussy cut it and mounted it with stampin' dimensionals on top of the image on the card front.  Here you can see a little more of the texture that was added by the embossing folder.

 

 

  Here is a photo of the inside of the card - I stamped this pretty border stamp with real red ink at the bottom for a little pizzazz since I didn't add a sentiment.  

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card is clean and simple and came together relatively quickly.  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration featuring this strawberry shortcake inspired color combination please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week. 

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!

Fabulous Friday: Hello new catalog!

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing projects featuring awesome products from the BRAND NEW Annual catalog for Fabulous Friday. 

 

  The new catalog launch is always super exciting and this year's catalog is full of awesome new products.  If you haven't seen the catalog yet, please click the link above to download it.  

 

  Personally, my very first MUST-HAVE was the Magnolia Lane product suite featured on page 37.  I just LOVE the Magnolia Lane DSP and the stamp set and coordinating dies are gorgeous!!

 

 

  I hope you aren't tired of this card layout, but it is my very favorite right now because it is so quick and easy but really highlights the DSP! You can add any small sentiment to the front of the card along with an image from the stamp set to coordinate with the DSP.

 

 

  Here is a close-up of the smaller flower - I colored it with an aqua painter and my Petal Pink and Mossy Meadow ink pads.  I popped it up on a piece of whisper white card stock cut out with the Pretty Label punch.  I think it highlights the flower nicely.

 

 

  Here is what I did for the inside of the card - I added a small strip of the DSP at the bottom, leaving myself lots of room to write a note to the recipient. 

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card is clean and simple and came together relatively quickly.  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration with brand new catalog products, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Saying Good-Bye to the Occasions catalog

 

  Hello and Happy Saturday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing cards featuring retiring products from the Occasions catalog for Fabulous Friday (yes, I am a day late getting this post published).  

 

 

  There are only a few days left to purchase these products - don't delay if you want to get your order in while you can.  And great news - some of the products have been discounted so you'll get more bang for your buck!  Thanks, Stampin' Up!  Click HERE to shop in my Stampin' Up! online store - don't forget to use the new Host Code H797CW9F  for June to earn your free Metallic Pearls with a $50+ order (see details below).

 

 

  Here is another view of the card.  The colors for my card were taken from the All My Love DSP - the card base is Soft Sea Foam card stock, the middle layer is Flirty Flamingo card stock and I stamped the sentiment from the Life is Grand stamp set with Lovely Lipstick ink.  I cut the stamped panel from whisper white card stock using the Stitched Rectangles thinlits which are thankfully carrying over into the 2019-2020 Annual catalog!

 

 

  I wanted to jazz up the stamped panel a little and cut out two of the flowers from the DSP to put in each of the corners.  I embellished with a few rhinestones and voila, a quick and easy card made in about 10 minutes.

 

 

  Here is what I did for the inside of the card - I used the other birthday sentiment from this set and stamped it with Lovely Lipstick ink and added a small strip of the DSP to the bottom.  That leaves plenty of room to write a note to the recipient inside and makes the card feel more special.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card is clean and simple and came together relatively quickly.  For even more fabulous card ideas and inspiration with retiring Occasions catalog products, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week. 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!

Fabulous Friday: Saying Good-Bye to the Last Chance Items

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing Clean and Simple cards featuring Last Chance products.  My card features a few items from the Occasions catalog:  Bloom By Bloom stamp set, Life is Grand stamp set and Happiness Blooms DSP.  I love the bright and fun colors that I used - all from the 2018-2020 In Color collection.

 

  Here is a side view of the card.  I popped up the stamped panel as you can see. The multitude of flower and leaf images that are photopolymer stamps in the Bloom by Bloom set made putting my collage of flowers together pretty quick and easy.

 

  I love the summery feel of this card, and since the temperatures were in the 80's today here in Central Virginia it matched my mood.  This is my favorite time of year, maybe because I have a May birthday.  The sun shining in the bright blue sky with flowers in bloom and everything green again just makes me happy - much like this card.

 

 

  Here is a close-up of the flowers, I didn't really plan it and just stamped in the upper left corner filling in as I went along.  It is always easiest to start with the largest images and then fill in where needed.

 

  I didn't want to leave the inside completely blank, so I cut a thin strip of the DSP that I used on the outside of the card and attached it inside.  This way I can use this card for any occasion and have lots of room to write.

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card is clean and simple and came together relatively quickly.  For even more fabulous Last Chance product ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week. 

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!

Fabulous Friday: Graduation card

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing Graduation cards because it is that time of year.  I decided to make one for my son's friend, whose school colors are red, white and blue.  I used the In Color blueberry bushel along with real red and whisper white for the color palette for my pocket card.  Many of the products used on this card can be found on the Last-Chance products list (retiring at the end of this month) including the Sunshine Wishes thinlits dies used to cut out the "Congrats" with the Big Shot, the All the Good Things stamp set used on the inside of the card and both ribbons.

 

  Here you can see the empty pocket base card as well as the card I stamped to put inside.  I didn't have any current Graduation themed stamp sets so used the sentiments from the All the Good Things stamp set.  To make it easier to stamp the words, I cut them from the fish image.  To make the first sentiment stand out, I stamped it on a piece of whisper white and cut it out using the Everyday Label punch.  I attached it to a post-it note and fed it back into the punch to make a smaller cut.  Since I didn't want to put it on with stampin' dimensionals but wanted to make it stand out, I ran the edge of the brush tip of the blueberry bushel along the outer edge of the punch to give just a slight border.

 

  Since this card is for a boy, I didn't want to get too frilly and add a tassel.  I wanted to give the impression of a graduation cap, though, so I cut out a 1" square of basic black card stock and added a medium pearl that I had colored with a black permanent marker.  This was popped up on the card with stampin' dimensionals. 

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card is pretty clean and simple and not too difficult to put together.  For even more fabulous Graduation card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.
