#sketchintuesday Peaceful Deer August 3rd, 2021

 Today I am featuring the card I made last evening during my #sketchintuesday facebook live.  I do these every Tuesday night from a sketch that fellow Stampin Up Demo, Barb Stortz provides to me.  She does random searches of Pinterest to find a different sketch each week.  Some I am okay with, others really paralyze my creating abilities.  

For this project I wanted to showcase some of the new offerings from both the Mini catalogue and Sale a Bration so I broke open the Peaceful Deer bundle and Peaceful Prints dsp.  I love the crisp, clean images from the stamp set and the variety of beautiful fonts in the greetings.  The dsp is on par with Stampin Up's reputation for over the top colours and designs in their papers.  

Here is the sketch and the finished product along with the list of supplies and directions.  I hope you enjoy this sketch. 



Supply List:

Cardstock: Basic White 159276-cut at 5 ½”x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Basic Black 121045-cut at 4” x 5 ¼”

Sahara Sand 121043-scraps for deer punches

Embellishments: Wonderful Gems 153536

Embossing Folder: Bark 3D 155431

Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine 149653

Paper Trimmer 152392

Step- By- Step Instructions:

Cut all paper to measurements given in supply list. 

 Emboss the Basic Black matte using the Bark embossing folder. 

Stamping:

Using the deer image, stamp twice using Memento onto the scrap of Sahara Sand. Then take the Merry Christmas greeting and stamp in Memento on the bottom, left hand side of the plaid dsp.

I also like to finish the inside of my cards so I then stamped a verse for the inside also using memento ink and adhered the second punched deer. 

Punch out the two deer images. 

Now let’s assemble our card: it is just simple layering now.  Place the large piece of dsp onto the black, embossed piece using Stampin seal.  Then add the corner cut piece of dsp, again using Stampin seal.  I used glue dots to add my deer to the front.  Next, using dimensionals, I popped the entire card front onto the Basic White card base, for a bit of depth.  Decorate the front using the wonderful gems and you are finished! What do you think?

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,...
