Stampin' Up! Peaceful Deer Birthday Card

Good day all!  Mary Louise here, your independant Stampin Up demonstrator from Nova Scotia.
Today's card was inspired by one that I made for Christmas, a layout quite popular on Pinterest.  It's actually using the same stamp set, which was released for Christmas.  Switching up the dsp and using a different sentiment, I now have a Birthday card.  I tried to keep the embellishments light so it could be passed off as masculine.  Hopefully I passed!





I stamped the deer from the Peaceful Deer stamp set using Soft Suede on Crumb Cake cardstock and cut it out using the Deer Builder Punch.  I then tied a bow adhering it with a mini glue dot out of Bakers Twine Essentials Pack.  The cardbase and first layer is Soft Succulent, my favourite current shade of green!  The layer is embossed with the Leaf Fall Embossing folder and then adhered to cardbase with Stampin' Seal.  Next I layered the three pieces of dsp from the Pretty Prints and Design a Daydream designer series packs. Using a circle die cut of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the tree image from the same stamp set using Evening Evergreen.  I also added a few trees to the Basic White insert which also has a strip of dsp and a sentiment too.  The circle is popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals.  The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Something Fancy stamp set, stamped using Evening Evergreen onto a strip of Soft Succulent, adhered to the circle die cut with a dimensional.  A few Classic Matte dots finished off the card.  

Materials and Measurements:
Soft Succulent cardbase 5 1/2 x 8 1/2; 4 x 5 1/4;  scrap for sentiment
Basic White 4 x 5 1/4; scrap for circle die cut
Crumb Cake cardstock scrap for deer

Leaf Fall Emboss Folder

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,...
