Unfrogettable Stamping!

Fabulous Friday: Color Challenge Dandelion Wishes card

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we were tasked with creating projects that feature the color challenge below.    

 

  Jennifer chose these colors in the challenge for us this week.  I know these aren't typical wedding colors, but the Dandelion Wishes stamp set came to my mind first as soon as I saw the colors.

 

  I utilized my Big Shot to cut the stitched rectangle panel and mat as well as to add texture to the Lemon-Lime Twist card stock strip.  I also used the Everyday Label punch for my sentiment.  Layering it like this helped to make it pop off the panel. 

 

  I don't know if you can see it or not, but I added clear Wink of Stella to the ends of the seeds (these are seeds, right?!).  It is really pretty in real life, but very difficult to photograph.  I also added a few rhinestones for some extra bling.

 

  I stamped a few of the seeds on the side of the panel, but I decided to forego any sentiment here so I would have room to write a personal note inside.  

 

  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 color challenge project 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 Happy Easter!

Fabulous Friday: Bunny Easter Greetings card

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring Easter projects because it is just a week away.  I just got the darling Fable Friends stamp set from the Occasions catalog and thought it would be perfect paired with the Happiness Blooms DSP.

 

  I chose to keep this layout super clean and simple but stepped out of my comfort zone to color the rabbit image using my Stampin' Blends.  I still am not very good at it, but really like the way this turned out!  I picked up the softer colors in the DSP for my card base (blushing bride) and mat (mint macaron) because I feel like the more subtle colors in our palette really represent Spring and Easter well.

 

  Here is a close-up of the colored rabbit - I used both soft suede blends to color the rabbit's fur, the lighter petal pink for the inside of the ears, both calypso coral blends for the jacket and the darker bermuda bay to color the buttons.  How sweet is this bunny?!?!?

 

  Here is a view of the inside of my card - I had some strips of DSP left over so decided to add a very thin strip to the inside to bring in some of the color.  I decided to forego any sentiment here so I would have room to write inside.  

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card layout is really quick and easy and will allow me to make several to send to friends and family.  For even more fabulous Easter project ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Lovely As a Tree sympathy Z-Fold Card

** Oh my goodness - we went to a swim meet last Friday and I completely forgot to publish my post! Well, better late than never.... enjoy!

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring the Lovely as a Tree stamp set in our projects.  This stamp set is a classic - it's been around since even before I became a demonstrator way back in 2005!  I do love it so much for masculine and sympathy cards but it is also great for Christmas and Fall cards.   I decided to go for a sepia-toned effect on my Z-Fold card.  This is very difficult to photograph!

 

  These  photos show you how the card is put together - the front flap is folded back and I added the stamped panel and sentiment to it with dimensionals.  The sentiments are from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set and work perfectly with the tree and leaves.  I did pull out my Hardwood stamp set for the decorative panel on the front of the card because it perfectly coordinates with this stamp set!

 

  I inked the trunk of the tree with soft suede ink, the base of the tree and the ground with early espresso and the leaves of the tree with garden green ink.  I just used the corner and sides of the ink pad so it was super simple!  The little bow is from the Nature's twine ribbon sampler... perfect for this card.

 

  Here is one last view of my card laid out flat.  I love that it is 3D but also folds flat for mailing.  For even more fabulous ideas and inspiration with the Lovely as a Tree stamp set, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: It's All About the DSP

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring Designer Series Paper (DSP).  This very versatile product is a card maker's secret weapon for making quick and easy cards.  These gorgeous sheets come in packs that are sized at 6" x 6" and also 12" x 12" so they're ideal for all paper crafters.  Stampin' Up! takes the guesswork out by having coordinating patterns and colors with multiple designs to choose from so the possibilities are pretty endless. 

 

  I chose to use the Painted Seasons DSP package that is only available through the end of this month as a Sale-a-Bration selection. You can earn it for FREE with a $50 order -or- as part of a bundle with a coordinating stamp set with a $100 order.  The beauty of this DSP is that you actually get 3 of each double-sided design. There are 8 different designs in this pack and they are all great!

 

  I have used this card layout before - it starts with a 4" x 4" square of DSP (you can easily get 9 from a single sheet of 12" x 12" DSP!) which is cut on the diagonal.  If you attach it to the outside edges of a piece of whisper white card stock cut to 5-1/4" x 4" you're left with a 1" channel that is perfect for adding a sentiment and punch or die-cut.  I just love this little dog punch that you can purchase in a bundle with the Happy Tails stamp set - the heart is a part of it, too.  The stamp set sentiments are perfect for the dog lover in your life.  You could easily make this same card with the Cat punch for loved ones who are cat people.  Isn't it funny that most people or usually one or the other?

 

  This sentiment from the Abstract Impressions stamp set worked perfectly with this gorgeous flower design in the Painted Seasons DSP.  Losing a beloved pet is so difficult - the grief is very real and a hand made card would certainly let the recipient know how much you care about them.

 

 

  This sentiment is from the Happy Tails set and I love the little paw image that is also in this set.  It works perfectly for this sympathy card.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  This card layout is really fantastic and tailor-made for 12" x 12" DSP since you get 9 pieces from one sheet with no waste.  I hope you'll give it a try!  For even more fabulous Designer Series Paper card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Painted Seasons One Sheet Wonder cards

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring Sale-a-Bration products as this fabulous promotion is coming to an end in just a few short weeks.  If you saw my project yesterday, I am in love with the Painted Seasons bundle and coordinating Four Seasons framelits that are available for purchase through the end of SAB (or until they're gone).   I decided to create a One Sheet Wonder using a half-sheet of card stock.  I was inspired by  my friend Lee Ann Greff''s post earlier this month where she created a OSW with a full piece of card stock.  I used the Strong & Beautiful stamp set for the sentiments on all three cards - this is a fantastic set!!

 

  Here is my half- sheet of whisper white card stock that I stamped with the images from the Painted Seasons stamp set.  Gorgeous and super simple, right?

 

  This is how I cut the half sheet to make the 3 different cards.  There is very little waste!  If you wanted, you could certainly stamp a full sheet and then cut it in half and then follow my cutting directions to get 6 cards - 2 of each.

 

 

  Here is Card A - I used the larger stamped sheet for the front of the card and then added the small strip to the inside on a quarter sheet of whisper white card stock (sorry, I forgot to take a photo of the inside).  

 

 

  Here is Card B with the smaller strip used on the bottom portion of the card.  I added it to a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of whisper white card stock for a simply stamped card.

 

 

  And here is Card C with the longer stamped strip on a portrait style card.  Notice the die-cut gorgeous grape flower?  So easy to cut these images from the Painted Seasons stamp set using the Four Seasons framelits.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my cards.  I love how these turned out and think I'll do more of these half-sheet OSW's in the future!  For even more fabulous Sale-a-Bration card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

March 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Sale-a-Bration Coordination

  Hi there and welcome to the March 2019 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!  This month we are featuring the Sale-a-Bration Coordination products that are being offered through the end of the month that work beautifully with some of the Sale-a-Bration selections being offered this year.  

 

  My coordination product that I used is the Four Seasons framelits dies that work with the Four Seasons Bundle (free with a $100 qualifying order).  I used the die to cut out my bright and beautiful Melon Mambo flower.

 

  How great are these colors together?  It's been sunny and gorgeous here in Central Virginia the last couple of days - the temperatures were warm enough that I even threw my windows open to let in some fresh air.  As the daffodils and crocuses are beginning to bloom all around I knew I wanted to have some cheery flowers on my card.  The color combination I chose to use is Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green.  I'll be honest, Granny Apple Green is slowly becoming my new favorite green (sorry Old Olive!).  Check out the sentiment - it is from the Strong & Beautiful stamp set that is in the Occasions catalog.

 

  Here is a close-up view of the flower that I cut out so quickly and easily with my  Big Shot and the Four Seasons framelits.  I added a clear faceted gem to the center - so fun!  And I'm thinking the little black accents stamp is supposed to be snowflakes, but I kind of like how they add a touch of whimsy to my card panel.

 

  Here is one more view of my card - I really love how this turned out and think it will be a project for my Card Club later this month.  Be sure to check back tomorrow to see my Fabulous Friday project for the Sisters in Stamping blog and don't forget to follow the hop to see what the other designers created for the 5 year anniversary celebration.

 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!!

Fabulous Friday: Adorable You Baby card

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring baby cards.   Not owning any current baby-themed stamp sets proved to be an obstacle for me this week, but I decided to go in a non-traditional direction and used this lovely piece of DSP from the Botanical Butterfly pack (a free Sale-a-Bration selection!!) with bright flirty flamingo.  I paired it with some of the images and sentiment from the Hedgehugs set as well as the Hand-Lettered Alphabet stamp set.

 

  Here is another view of the card - it's a very simple layout that features the beautiful designer paper.  The scalloped tag punch was used to cut out the baby sentiment and then I added some flowers at the bottom.  Check out the ribbon - it is the gorgeous Petal Pink/Whisper White variegated ribbon from the Occasions catalog.  It is super pliable and easy to tie and works perfectly with this color combination.

 

  Here is a close-up of the sentiment panel - I cut it out using the Scalloped Tag punch and then I added some flowers at the bottom that were colored with the flirty flamingo, petal pink and old olive stampin' write markers.  Check out the ribbon - it is the gorgeous Petal Pink/Whisper White variegated ribbon from the Occasions catalog.  It is super pliable and easy to tie and works perfectly with this color combination.  I cut out the Adorable You sentiment with the Classic Label punch after stamping it with flirty flamingo ink pad.

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  I love how this card turned out - it just goes to show that you can use non-baby stamps to create a baby card.  For even more fabulous baby card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Country Road masculine birthday card

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring masculine projects - often these are the hardest kind to create, don't you think?  I decided to keep mine super simple with just a little bit of braided linen trim for added texture and simple stamping.  The color combination is early espresso, sahara sand, tranquil tide and very vanilla. 

 

  Here is another view of the card - I really love this weather vane image!  And I'm not real sure what the foliage is - wheat maybe?

 

  Here is a close-up of the sentiment panel - I cut it out using the Everyday Label punch and the knot of braided linen trim gives great texture to the card, especially after I unraveled the ends just a bit.

 

  And here is what I did on the inside - a simple birthday sentiment stamped with early espresso ink and then the star behind it with sahara sand ink leaving you plenty of room to write a nice message to the recipient.

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  I love how this stamp set lends itself so well for a masculine card.  For even more fabulous masculine project ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.

Fabulous Friday: Cling Wrap technique simple birthday card

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring the Cling Wrap technique with our cards.  If you haven't ever heard of it, here is a link to a tutorial.  You have seen quite a few birthday cards from me lately but those are the kind of cards you need all the time, am I right?!  And I really wanted to feature the technique so kept the card clean and simple.

 

  The colors that I chose to use are Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pacific Point - all colors that go together beautifully and are from the Brights collection.  This reminds me of the colors of the ocean - so serene and peaceful.  The twine that I chose from the Nature's Twine pack reminded me of nautical rope, too, so it all ties together (no pun intended!).

 

  Here is a close-up of the birthday thinlit - so simple but what an impact this makes!

 

 

  I kept it super simple on the inside of the card, adding a sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthdays stamp set from the Occasions catalog.  This leaves plenty of room to write if you want.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my card.  I love this technique and am really happy with how this turned out - it's perfect for a teenager and the color scheme makes it pretty gender-neutral.  For even more fabulous Cling Wrap technique card 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 great weekend! *

Fabulous Friday: Monochromatic birthday card

 

  Hello and Happy Friday! This week over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are featuring monochromatic cards.  I know technically this is considered grayscale but I really love how it turned out and I wanted to use my new ribbon.  So there you go...

 

  I kept things super simple with just a simply stamped background panel featuring the Burlap stamp set which adds nice texture.  I added a piece of the new Black/Silver striped metallic ribbon from the Classic Garage product suite in the Occasions catalog.  The focal image is from the Birthday Wishes for You stamp set.  I love that you can color in the letters!

 

  I was going for an ombre effect and love that you can blend the Stampin' Blends markers so easily.  I only used the Smoky Slate combo, starting with the dark and working down with the light and blending in between.  I also tried to soften the light marker using the Color Lifter - not sure I pulled it off or not.  It does look a little smoky, doesn't it?!

 

  I kept it super simple on the inside of the card, adding the other sentiment from the Birthday Wishes for You stamp set.  This leaves plenty of room to write if you want.

 

 

  Here is one last view of my monochromatic card.  I am really happy with how this turned out - and I think it is a great masculine card with lots of texture both from the ribbon (that isn't too girlie) and the Burlap stamp.  For even more fabulous  monochromatic card ideas and inspiration, please hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what my fellow designers created this week.
