Framed Florets Birthday Card

Stampin Up released a new suite called Fitting Florets.  This is the first card I made using the bundle.

I used Thick Vanilla card stock for the card base and used Vanilla card stock for the rest.  

I embossed the first layer using Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder to add some texture.

I used scraps to stamp the flowers and die cut them along with the frame.

I like to stamp the oval before adhering it to the card in case I don't like how it looks, then I can flip it over and stamp again.

To color, Stampin Blends are my go to.  They are so nice to work with.  

After adhering the pieces to the card, finish by adding 2-3 Gold adhesive backed swirls.  

 

This card design would work great for a wedding, anniversary, thinking of you....

TImeless Arrangements Bundle

One of the first bundles I ordered from our new catalog was Timeless Arrangements.  It is a great versatile set. I love the different dies that come in it.  There are 3 stitched rectangle dies to fit greetings. 

 

I love the texture that Painted Posies embossing folder gives. 

The detail in the die cut pieces really stand out with the colored card stock.

 

I made a video to show how to make this card.

Dots and Spots Card

Have you seen our Dots and Spots die?  Stampin Up just added it as a free option for a $100 order for August, the final month of Sale A Bration!  I paired the die with our new In Colors in the card below.  I love how bright and vibrant they are!

This card just made me smile when I was done creating it because I just love how fun the die cut dots are with the bright colors.  They really "pop" with the Black behind it.  

I used Celebrate You Stamp set for my greeting. It is a great set with a good variety of greetings.  I like all the different fonts used in the set. I added a few of our In Color Matte Decorative Dots to the greeting to add some color.  

Below is a video I made a video showing how I made this card.

Merry Christmas! My Christmas Card

Merry Christmas!  I hope you are having a wonderful day celebrating the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ.   This is the card I created for this year.  

 

I love Christmas Carols, so when I saw the embossing folder in our mini catalog, I had to get it.  It goes perfectly with the For Unto Us stamp set.  

I make 270 cards and the Take Your Pick tool makes adding rhinestones so easy!  Here is a quick video that shows how quickly you can put 5 rhinestones on your card.  

 

These are the products I used to make this card.  Some of them are retiring soon, so if you like them order as soon as possible.  If you click on the image it should take you to my online store.

Basic Borders Dies

I just got our Basic Borders dies and I really like them!  If you have A Stampin Cut and Emboss machine, you should add these to your wish list!

I also used Artistic dies as well for the leaves.  For this die, I run it through a few times to get a good cut. 

 

I made a video to show you how to make the zigzag.  

• Die cut the zigzag near the left folded edge.
• Trim the straight edge ¼ inch on the piece you cut off of the card front.
• Stamp the greeting on the right corner.
• Die cut leaves from Artistic Dies from SITM 51. (run it through 3 times to get a good cut)
• Put adhesive on the very edge of zigzag and attach the Evening Evergreen piece.  Repeat with the other side.
• Attach the die cut leaves to the card.

Golden Birthday Card

Today is our daughter's 20th birthday, which is her golden birthday.  What better Designer Series Paper to use than Artistically Inked!  

 

I love the gold that is in the paper.  One side of each of the sheets had gold foil worked into it.  Here is a closer picture that shows the gold a little better.

 

I cut apart the large die with leaves, and tucked it behind the flowers. 

 

I am using retired number dies for this card.  I keep very few dies once they retire, but these I have used a lot!  The Mini Dimensionals are perfect for pieces like this. 

 

The flowers in this bundle are fun and easy to use.  The dies line up nicely to cut them out.

7th birthday card

Today we celebrated my niece's 7th birthday.  I made her this card using our Oh So Ombre designer series paper stack that is free with a $50 order through the end of February.

I used my very favorite die set, Tasteful Labels Dies.  It is so versatile, I use it all the time. I the used my Take Your Pick tool to pick up the pearls from the sheet the come on and put them in place to create a 7.  It would have been much harder to make the straight lines with out the Take Your Pick tool.  It has a little putty on the end of it that helps the pearl stick to it, and it easily comes off when you put the pearl in place.

I used Dimensionals to pop up the Label so it stands out a little more.
