Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper Mystery Challenge Pieces

 My teammates and I participate in a team swap and this month my offerings were die cuts of Simply Elegant designer series paper and Gold Foil using the Basic Borders dies.  I absolutely love this dsp, both sides in fact which is going to make it difficult to choose one over the other.  The dsp paired with Very Vanilla makes such an elegant card, I just couldn't wait to get started.

Step- By- Step Instructions:

 

Stamping: Using the Memento ink, stamp the large verse from Very Versailles on the first piece of Very Vanilla off to the left slightly.  Next, stamp the sentiment using the Many Messages stamp on the scrap of Very Vanilla and cut using the Messages die.

Punch the Basic Gray scrap using the largest oval in the Double Oval punch. 

Using the Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine and the curved die, cut both the dsp and the gold foil on one side. 

Let’s put the card together:  Layer the stamped Very Vanilla piece onto the Basic Gray cardbase using adhesive.  Adhere the gold foil to the edge of the dsp and then glue to the top part of the card.  Place the die cut sentiment on top of the punched oval and glue in place, then pop up with mini dimensionals to the right but slightly over the verse.  Place three clear epoxy essentials onto the card.  Lastly, stick the last piece of Very Vanilla on the inside.

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Sympathy Card

Image
Today's card was inspired by a sketch seen on facebook from an American Demonstrator.  I was intrigued by the cool way to use some of our beautiful designer series paper and the best part is, you don't need a huge piece! I am attending a Stampin' Up! event this weekend and we were asked to bring a few projects to share and this is one of my projects. Fall isn't officially here yet, but once school starts up and the leaves start to fall off the trees, it's pretty close.  The Splendid Autumn designer series paper is gorgeous, the beautiful rich colours are simply stunning.   The cardbase and matte layer are Wild Wheat and the cardstock that the dsp is mounted on is Crushed Curry.  Simply cut the pieces and adhere together and then adhere to the card front.  I stamped using Memento onto a strip of Basic White cardstock which was then mounted on to another piece of Crushed Curry.  This was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals after the length of 2023...

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter Christmas Card

Image
Good day folks!  I am here with another card created for my recent Stampin' Up! gathering this past weekend.  We had a day long activity where we focused on building up our Stampin' Up! business, watched several Atlantic Demos create some beautiful projects and then participated in a show box swap.  This was my shoe box swap offering. I have used this fancy fold layout several times and thought it was the perfect opportunity to showcase some of the beautiful Nests of Winter dsp in the latest mini catalogue! My cardbase is Grey Granite which was cut and scored, the die cut square behind the image and the strip to hold the card together are all Gray Granite too.  The dsp is from Nests of Winter and they are adhered to the front and the inside of the cardbase.  There is a small piece of Basic White for the insert and fits beside the piece of dsp.  The strip of Gray Granite,  is scored is secured next.  Starting at the far left edge of the card front,...
