Nobody Loves Like Mom

Posted on April 16, 2015April 14, 2015 by Josee

Good Morning!

Today I've got a fun and easy technique to share today. Plus, it's a great way to use the Mother's Love stamp set that is on sale this week!! 

A Mother's Love,triple time stamping

You can download the project sheet here: Triple Time Stamping with Mothers love

Supplies used:

Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog

 

 

 

Measurements:  

  • Strawberry Slush 8 ½ x 5 ½ score at 4 ¼, 4 ½ x 3 ¼ and 3 ½ x 2 ¼
  • Whisper White 5 ¼ x 4, 4 ¼ x 3 and 3 ¼ x 2

Instructions:

  1. Layer all 3 of your whisper white pieces on top of each other using the 2 Way Glue Pen (apply a few dots of adhesive on the back of each layer and allow to dry before layering for a temporary adhesion) Stamp your words in Garden Green in the center.
  2. Stamp your flowers with Stems outline and your flowers alone in Garden Green Randomly until all of your white looks pretty filled but not too filled. (don’t forget your corners and outside edges and be sure to stamp off the edges as needed.
  3. Next Stamp your inside images of flower and stems and flowers alone in Strawberry Slush to fill all of your green images.
  4. Next peel your White layers apart one by one, I started from the top and adhere them to the coordinating Strawberry slush piece and then adhere them to the next layer of white until your card is complete.

Stampers Dozen Blog Hop: Congratulations!

Posted on April 14, 2015April 14, 2015 by Josee

Good Morning!

Welcome to this month's 'Congratulations!' Blog Hop! You are going to see some wonderful samples of Graduation and Wedding cards during this blog hop! 

I have to admit, when I sat down to create a card for this, I ended up doing a few samples before I settled on this one for the Blog Hop, so if you missed seeing them last week, you can see the other wedding card I made here, and the graduation ensemble I made here. 

Now, onto today's card! 

StampingJo wedding Big News, Spring Flowers

I just love the way this card turned out! I started with a Whisper White card base. Then I added a layer of Whisper White on top of that- first I cut out the center area with the Labels Collection die (which is ON SALE THIS WEEK!!) and put it aside while I embossed the remaining piece with the Spring Flowers Textured Embossing Folder.

I then stamped the sentiment from Big News in Basic Black on the die cut piece and placed it back in the cut out of the embossed piece. Before adhering everything onto the card base I tied some Whisper White Organza ribbon to the embossed layer.  Then added a strip of Pearls Basics Jewels under the sentiment.

To finish off the card, using the Circles Collection dies, I cut two circles out of a Gold Foil sheet to create the rings and adhered them to the front of the card and completed the look with a cluster of Rhinestones Basics Jewels.

Here is a list of the supplies I used to create this project:

Bravo graduate!

Posted on April 10, 2015April 9, 2015 by Josee

LAST DAY TO SAVE!!

 Click here to shop for FREE shipping! Any order amount! 

Good Morning!

Have you got a graduation celebration coming up in the next few months? Today I wanted to share a fun card ensemble I made for a graduate gift! 

StampingJo Tiny Treat Box & Label Card Thinlit Grad Ensemble

 

Let's start with the card. I used the Label Card Thinlits die to create the card base from Island Indigo and cut the inside of the card with Whisper White.  Then, I had a little fun with the Bravo photopolymer stamp set and stamped on the Whisper White with Tuxedo Black, then coloured in some of the letters with Stampin Write markers. I tied some Silver Baker's Twine to the inside piece and adhered all the layers on the card base. 

StampingJo Grad Label Bravo card

Then I took the Tiny Treat Box and created a grad cap out of it. 🙂  I cut 2 strips about 1" long out of the Island Indigo cardstock, then used the Labels Collection Framelits die to create the peak along the edge of the strips and adhered them to the box along the top edge (notice the box is upside down to allow opening the box). I cut a square about 3" for the top of the cap.  Then, I created a tassle out of the Silver Bakers Twine, punched a hole in the top of the square, threaded the tassle through the hole and adhered the tassle to the underside of the cap top. Then I added a circle epoxy sticker from the Itty Bitty Accents Epoxy Stickers to the top.

StampingJo Grad Tiny Treat BoxTo finish off the box, I stamped the WooHoo! stamp from Big News and the stars are from the candle in the same set. I used the Stampin' Write markers to ink up on the parts of the stamps I wanted to use. I then used the little banner die from the Label Card Thinlits to die cut the sentiment and adhered it to the front of the box.

Now I think this ensemble would be great for gift giving- you could fit a small gift in this box- like some jewelry, money or chocolates.

Here are the supplies I used to create this ensemble:

 

Come back on Monday for My Crafty Friends Monday! Some great Mother's Day cards to share!
