A Little Hello

Posted on March 16, 2021March 14, 2021 by Josee

This card is super simple and I like it! 🙂 I added glimmer with the Wink of Stella to the cut-out butterflies and they look great in person but, it was hard to photograph.

Dimensions

  • Balmy Blue: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Magenta Madness: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Designer Paper: 2 1/2″ x 4″

Directions

  1. Use the Stamparatus to stamp the butterflies on the Magenta Madness cardstock. Keep inking and stamping it until you have the images looking like you want.
  2. Adhere the Designer Paper and Magenta Madness cardstock to the card.
  3. Use the die to cut out the butterflies from the Designer Paper. Add the 3 butterflies to the card using Dimensionals.
  4. Add glitter to the butterflies using the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.
  5. Stamp the greeting on Basic White cardstock using Memento ink, then punch out using the Classic Label Punch. Adhere to the card.

You’ve been on my mind

Posted on March 15, 2021March 14, 2021 by Josee

The Simply Succulents stamp set can be used in so many different ways! That’s really the joy of stamping, you can play around with different colours and designs. I loved created this rainbow background and thought pulling in the same colours for the flowers would be fun!

Dimensions

  • Magenta Madness: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Shimmery White: 4″ x 5 1/2″
  • Stitched Rectangle: 2 1/4″ x 3 1/2″

Directions

  1. Use a blending brush to pick up ink from an ink pad then add the colour to the Shimmery White cardstock.
    Tips:
    a. Start off the cardstock and go in circular motions.
    b. Add more ink until you have the right concentration of colour.
    c. Blend colours together so you have soft gradients between colours.
  2. Add small drops of water on top of the coloured cardstock. (You can use a Water Painter, a small paint brush or even your fingers to drop the water.
  3. Cut out a piece of Shimmery White cardstock using the large die from the bundle. Adhere the cut out piece to the coloured cardstock using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen on the back.
  4. Trim the edges using a Trimmer so that you have only a small border that will fit on the front of the card.
  5. Wrap a piece of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around the layers and tape the ends to the back of the cardstock. Take a smaller piece of ribbon and tie in a knot on the left-hand side.
  6. Adhere the layers to the card.
  7. Cut out a 2 1/4″ x 3 1/2″ Stitched Rectangle with the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine.
  8. Stamp the 3 flowers using a Versamark ink pad on the 3 coloured cardstock. Sprinkle White Emboss Powder, tap off the excess and heat set with the Heat Tool. Tip: I pushed my pinky finger into the Versamark ink pad and pressed my finger onto the embossed flowers to add a bit of a watermark. Cut out the flowers using the matching dies.
  9. Cut out the sprigs of leaves using the dies from the bundle.
  10. Stamp the pot on a piece of Shimmery White cardstock using Memento ink. Colour using the Smoky Slate Blend markers. Cut out using the coordinating die.
  11. Adhere the flower pot, leaves and flowers on to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Tip: I added the 3 flowers to the card using Dimensionals. Add the layer to the card using Dimensionals.
  12. Stamp the greeting on a piece of Magenta Madness cardstock with Memento ink and cut out using the matching die. Add the greeting to the card using Dimensionals.

Butterfly Friend

Posted on March 8, 2021March 7, 2021 by Josee

You may have already seen the Butterfly Bouquet Suite that is our March Promo on this post. I really love the products in this collection and I’ve made a bunch of fun cards to share with you. The first card below is a fairly simple one.

Did you know that the large butterfly die cuts out the butterflies in this sheet of designer from the Butterfly Bijou?! The designer paper in this Suite is soooo pretty and it is while supplies last and will not be available after the promo is over! The stamp set, though, will be in the next Annual Catalogue.


Dimensions

  • Mint Macaron: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Bermuda Bay: 3 1/2″ x 5″
  • Butterfly Bijou Designer Paper: 3″ x 4 1/2″
  • Stitched Circle: approx. 3″

Directions: 

  1. Adhere the Designer Paper and Bermuda Bay cardstock to the card.
  2. Cut out the 3″ stitched circle using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine with Whisper White cardstock. Adhere to the card.
  3. Wrap the ribbon around the card and tie it in a knot.
  4. Use the Brilliant Wings Dies to cut out the butterflies from the Designer Paper. Add glitter with the Wink of Stella brush to the Bermuda Bay/Mint Macaron butterfly and add to the card using Dimensionals.
  5. Add a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock (approx. 1 1/2″ x 2 3/4″) to a piece of Adhesive Sheet and cut out the “friend” word. Take off the back cover of the adhesive sheet and add the word to the card.
