Sentimental Framing - Wishing You All The Best

Hello Stampers,

Today's card is another pre-challenge for Fall Creativate. This sketch lends itself well for those scraps of DSP & Cardstock you may be holding onto.

I started with a layer of Basic Beige Cardstock then used 5 pieces (same sheet, 2 pieces are the backside of the 3 pieces) of the Painterly Pears DSP & glued them down at different angles. I also used a smaller but longer piece to go across them. Once these were all glued down I added them to a Mossy Meadow Cardstock base. I used one of the sentiments from the Sentimental Framing Stamp Set, stamping with Mossy Meadow Ink onto Basic Beige Cardstock then layered that onto a Mossy Meadow Cardstock layer. I fiddled around with some Linen Thread until I liked the set up then popped the sentiment up with Stampin' Dimensionals. Lastly, I added a bit of bling from the Low Profile Sparkle Dots to finish the card.

Label Me Grateful - Thank You

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by a pre-challenge for the Creativate Fall Session. In the haste of everything that was going on I didn't participate so I'm playing catch up with all the new things that they showed.

They called this card the Embossing Square Card. I started with a square from the Painterly Pears DSP, then embossed it with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder before adding it to a layer of Mossy Meadow Cardstock. I wrapped this focal point with Linen Thread & added a little bow to finish it off. For the sentiment, I used the Label Me Grateful Stamp Set stamping directly onto the Darling Duckling Cardstock base with Mossy Meadow Ink. I added the focal image to the card base using Stampin' Dimensionals & added a few Low Profile Sparkle Dots to finish the card.

MMS101325- Thinking Of You

Hello Stampers,

I'm so sorry for being so MIA lately, my schedule has been a little hectic lately & it didn't help that I procrastinated a bit too much when I was making a few things for my mom. I made cards like she asked but wanted a nice presentation & so I made a few boxes to go with them, let me just say those boxes were almost the death of me.

Today's card was from the 1st MMS day of October using Sharon Armstrong's tutorial. I started this card with a Misty Moonlight Cardstock base then embossed a Basic White Cardstock layer with the Joined Together 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I cut a strip from the Kintsugi Inspirations DSP & adhered it to a small strip of Misty Moonlight Cardstock before adhering it to the embossed layer. For the sentiment, I used the Sentimental Framing Stamp Set with Misty Moonlight Ink to stamp onto Basic White Cardstock. I then used the 2 3/8" Circle Punch, along with the retired 2 1/2" Circle Punch to punch out the sentiment & a layer, which was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals before adding to the card. I finished the card by adding a few Iridescent Foil Gems.

Along These Lines - Happy Birthday

Hello Stampers,

It's been a brisk few days weatherwise, but I wanted 1 last tribute to some beautiful bright colors before fully immersing myself into more rich regals. I'm not sure what led to this hoorah except I was looking for a color that I haven't used a lot of which led me to Shy Shamrock & then that led to the Full of Life DSP, so voila!

This card was inspired by this week's Freshly Made Sketches #708. I started with stamping the birthday cake from the Along These Lines Stamp Set with the Shy Shamrock Ink Pad onto Basic White Cardstock, then punching it out with the 2 3/8" Circle Punch. I used a retired 2 1/2" Circle Punch to add a Daffodil Delight Cardstock layer behind the stamped image. For the sentiment, I used the Beautiful Butterflies Stamp Set also with the Shy Shamrock Ink Pad & Basic White Cardstock that I cut an angled end off. For the base of the card, I used Shy Shamrock Cardstock with a layer of Berry Burst Cardstock & Full of Life DSP. Lastly, I used the 24-26 Shimmer Gems to finish the card.

Prairie Grass - Sending Healing Power of Love

Hello Stampers,

Oh my gosh, I was so busy last week I never even felt like entering my craft room to wind down. Let's hope this week is a bit better because I have a few things I need to finish.

To start me off on a good foot I used a card template from Jackie Bolhuis. I started with a piece of Thoughtful Journey DSP, stamping the large stamp from the Prairie Grass Stamp Set onto the DSP with the Cajun Craze Ink Pad. I cut the DSP down to 3 pieces before gluing them to a Cajun Craze Cardstock layer, before adding to a Mossy Meadow Cardstock base. I used a sentiment from the same set, stamping with Cajun Craze Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock then backed it with Cajun Craze Cardstock, both were punched with the 1 7/8" & 2" Circle Punches. Lastly, I added a few Muted Palette Gems to finish the card.
