Stampin Up Lovely You Fall Colours

 Today's project was one I have been wanting to try for awhile now.  I have had this stamp set for over a year now and have used so many of the sentiments but never have I inked up the various floral images.  I'm glad I waited until now so I could use more fall colours, so happy with the end results.  



Supply List:

Cardstock: Just Jade-cut at 5 ½”x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”; scrap for sentiment

Basic White-cut 2@ at 4” x 5 ¼” ; scrap for sentiment

Ink: Just Jade; Pumpkin Pie; Cajun Craze; Daffodil Delight

Stamp Sets: Lovely You

Stitched So Sweetly Dies

Lovely Labels Pick a Punch

Adhesive, mini dimensionals

Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials

Linen Thread

Paper Trimmer

Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine 


Step- By- Step Instructions:

 

Stamping: Using the scrap of basic white, stamp your sentiment in Just Jade. This piece must be 1” wide, at least 3 ½” long.

I started with the Pumpkin Pie ink and the largest flower image, stamping in the “corners” of the space I wanted to cover.  Remember when placing your images, you want to leave space for the sentiment pieces so be sure to stamp accordingly.  Under neath of my die cut is pretty much blank, hope this makes sense.  Now, using the leaf image, I used the Just Jade ink and filled in where needed.  Cajun Craze was used on the thicker leafy image and finally the small flower was used in Daffodil Delight.  I did add a few more of the flowers to fill in where needed.

I also like to finish the inside of my cards so I then stamped each of these images on the inside on the bottom, left hand corner.

Using Just Jade cardstock, cut out the sentiment backing from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.

I used the largest of the slots in the Lovely Labels punch to create my label and punched at both ends.

Now let’s assemble our card:

   Adhere both of the Basic White pieces to the card, the insert for the inside and the other on the front.  I added dimensionals to the die cut piece of Just Jade, centered amongst your inked images.  I also added dimensionals to the label punched sentiment layer but first I added a length of linen thread, about 3” worth.  I just wound it under the sentiment.  Then I added a few of the clear epoxy embellishments.

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,...
