Today’s card is being featured at my April Coloring Class. I adore the Just Add Color DSP, but couldn't figure out how exactly to showcase the fun images. Thankfully the Stampin' Blends came at just the right time for me to have a bit of fun coloring these cute houses.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a coffee break card. Another excuse to pull out the Coffee Cafe Stamp Set. Even if SU decides to retire this set at the end of the catalog, I will be keeping this and making more coffee themed cards. I love it so much. Or maybe it's that I love coffee so much... Anyways, I chose to pick some fun DSP pieces, lay them in a pattern, and then emboss the entire piece using the Hexagons Embossing Folder. From there, it was just a matter of making a fun Coffee Cup to act as my focal point.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using the sketch below.
I decided to use a very simple color palette for my card. I pulled three different patterns of Powder Pink DSP from the Fresh Florals stack and played around with layering them. I realized that I didn't want to use one of the patterns to stamp on, so I made my own! I stamped the single flower image from Birthday Blooms (one of my MVP stamp sets), die cut it, and stamped on a sentiment from a different stamp set (Sharing Sweet Thought). For embellishment, I simply added a bitty bow.
Today's card was featured at February stamp club, but I forgot to post it here. Silly me! This Beautiful Peacock stamp set is a Level 1 SAB item, meaning you can still get it for free with a $50 or more order through March 31st. For my card, I stamped the peacock, tail, and little floral bits to fill up my piece of Very Vanilla. After adding on some DSP, a sentiment, and a few layering pieces, I focused on one last flourish. I created a Calypso Coral "tail" by unraveling a piece of Shimmer ribbon to the desired length. I used a small piece of Bermuda Bay ribbon to tie my unraveled piece off and attached to the peacock.
I love this great card of layered DSP. I always want to highlight the beautiful patterns of our DSP, but often we mask it under stamps and other pieces. For this card, I kept my stamping to a simple sentiment to showcase the beautiful flowers.
Today’s card is a quick and easy card that I adore. I simply stamped a bunch of butterflies and added a great sentiment. I would love to repeat this card with different color combinations.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a Get Well card. The SAB featured Blossoming Basket Stamp Set was the perfect choice. I stamped the basket in Basic Black and set to coloring with various Stampin' Blends. From there I added a hand drawn border to help define my square of white before adhering it to the embossed piece of cardstock. The Calypso Coral Shimmer Ribbon (also SAB item) was the perfect finisher.
Today's card is such a fun sparkly card! We made this for February's stamp club and I think all the ladies enjoyed making the card. We colored the glimmer paper with Pool Party reinker to create our sky. From there, we die cut the clouds adding a bit of Pool Party to the edges. The unicorns were colored with a mix of old Stampin' Up! Blendibilities and the new Stampin' Up! Blends (we made the card before the rest of my Blends arrived). Love this super sparkly card!
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using Rich Razzleberry, Sweet Sugarplum, and Soft Sky.
I decided to play with layering images from the Amazing You stamp set. After setting down my layer of stamped images, I stamped another flower, colored it with the Rich Razzleberry Stampin' Blends, and cut it out to add some dimension. Finally I added a few Glitter Enamel Dots to the card.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card featuring the theme "Back to Nature." I'm so glad I had a few more stamped images from Sheltering Tree hanging out in my scrap box. I created a four seasons panel by adhering my stamped images to a piece of Crumb Cake. From there, I added it to a piece of DSP. Finally, I added some ribbon and sentiment tag.
