Peaceful Poppies Series (5 and 6)- Thank You friend

Posted on February 7, 2020February 3, 2020 by Josee

Today is card #5 & 6 of the Peaceful Poppies Series where I challenged myself to use up every pattern of the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper with the Peaceful Poppies Suite Bundle and the Painted Poppies Bundle.


The colours found in the designer paper are:
Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Flirty Flamingo, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White

   

 I used this designer paper for this card. (All the designer papers are double-sided)

Today I thought I’d share 2 different cards since they use the opposite side of the same designer paper.

CARD #5

Dimensions:

Blackberry Bliss:  5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Designer Paper:  4″ x 5 1/4″

CARD #6


Dimensions:

Old Olive:  5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Basic Black:  2 3/4″ x 5 1/2″
Designer Paper:  2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″

Nature’s Beauty with Ice Glitter

Posted on December 10, 2019April 14, 2020 by Josee

Measurements:

  • Purple Posy: 4 ¼” x 11”; scored at 5 ½” & 8 ¼”
  • Seaside Spray: 3 ¾” x 2 ½”
  • Shimmery White: 4 ¼” x 3 ¾”
  • Whisper White: 5 ¼” x 4”
  • Ribbon: 9” (2 pieces)

Instructions:

  1. Fold the Purple Posy cardstock in half (on the score line) to form the card base.
  2. Fold the front of the card back in half again (on the 2nd score line).
  3. Cut the stitched Rectangle out from the Shimmery White card stock on a die cutting machine.
  4. Stamp the deer image, with Jet Black Stazon ink, on the Shimmery White card stock.
  5. Stamp the deer image again on a Post-it Note and then cut it out.
  6. Place the Post-it Note over top of the deer to form a mask. And then stamp the additional trees, shrubs and grass using the Jet Black Stazon ink.
  7. Colour the images by using an Aqua Painter and squeezing the inkpads to form a pool of ink in the lid of the inkpads. Use the Aqua Painter to pick up the colour and colour the images. Use Crumb Cake and Soft Suede for the deer image. Use Soft Suede and Old Olive for the trees.  Use Old Olive and Crumb cake for the ground and the shrubs.  And use Seaside Spray, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape to do the sky.  TIP:  Colour one area and let it dry, before moving on to another area.
  8. Once the image has dried, stamp the “snow” image from the “Nature’s Beauty” stamp over the entire image.
  9. Attach the rectangle to the Seaside Spray Mat. Then add lots of SNAIL adhesive to the back of the Seaside Spray piece and attach one piece of ribbon to the back right-hand side.  Then attach the image to the front of the card.
  10. Stamp the saying, on the White Cardstock, with Black ink, in the lower right-hand corner.
  11. Add lots of SNAIL adhesive to the back of the white piece and attach one piece of ribbon to the back right-hand side of the white piece. Then attach the white cardstock to the inside of the card.
  12. Tie the two ribbons together to close the card.
  13. Use small dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on some of the snowflakes. Sprinkle the Ice Glitter over top of the image and let it dry.

Oh Christmas Tree

Posted on December 9, 2019December 7, 2019 by Josee

Happy Monday!! This Christmas Tree card was really fun to colour and is stunning in real life….especially with the Ice Stampin’ Glitter on the star!

Measurements:

  • Cherry Cobbler: 5 ½” x 8 ½” (score and fold at 4 ¼”)
  • Shimmery White: 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ and  3/4″ x 3″
  • Old Olive: 2 3/4″ x 4 3/4″

Instructions:

  1. Ink the Christmas tree stamp with  Versamark, then right after, use the Mossy Meadow ink to cover the tree stamp. (Inking the stamp with Versamark ink first before the colour allows the coloured ink to stay sticky enough for the embossing powder to stick to.) TIP: when using a larger stamp, it can be helpful to use the Stampin’ Pierce Mat under your cardstock so that it gives you a nice surface and allows for a better-stamped image.
  2. Once stamped, sprinkle clear embossing powder over the entire image. Tap off excess embossing powder and put it back in its container. Use the heat tool to heat emboss the powder.
  3. Colour image using the Stampin’ Blend markers mentioned in the supply list.
  4. Adhere the Shimmery White cardstock to the Old Olive cardstock, then adhere both to the card base.
  5. Stamp the greeting on to the smaller piece of Shimmery White cardstock using Cherry Cobbler ink.
  6. Wrap the linen thread 3 times around the cardstock on the left-hand side of greeting, and use tape to attach ends to the back.
  7. Take another small piece of linen thread and make a knot at the front of the greeting layer.
  8. Add a good amount of Shimmery Crystal Effect to the star, then dump some Ice Glitter on top. Let sit until completely dry.
