So Sincere - So Very Proud Of You

Hello Stampers,

I came across an old sketch yesterday that was made by an online friend that passed last year & thought I'd make a card using it.

I started this card with a retiring Wild Wheat Cardstock base, followed by a layer of Lost Lagoon Cardstock that I embossed using the So Swirly 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I cut 3 strips of Everyday Happiness DSP 1 1/4"x 4, 4.5 & 5". I punched a circle using Basic White Cardstock, then stamped a sentiment from the retiring So Sincere Stamp Set using the retiring Wild Wheat Ink Pad. I stamped the flower & leaves from the Hearts Of Elegance Stamp Set onto Basic White Cardstock using Lost Lagoon & Gray Granite Ink Pads then die-cut them using the dies. Lastly, I added a few retired 2023-25 In Color Dots to finish the card.

Playing In The Rain - Oh Happy Day!

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by this week's final pre-challenge before this weekends Creativate Spring. It's a simple looking sketch with the added DSP in the top corner.

I chose to use the retiring Playing In The Rain Stamp Set, I just love the little animal characters in the set. I stamped the rabbit onto Basic White Cardstock using Memento Black Ink, then colored it in using Smoky Slate, Pool Party & Petal Pink Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. I then masked the rabbit to add some rain using the Pool Party Ink Pad, before adding the focal image to a layer of Smoky Slate & Basic White Cardstock. For the next layer, I used Smoky Slate Cardstock & added strips from the retiring Shades & Hues DSP, before adding this layer to the Smoky Slate Cardstock base. I used the Pool Party Ink Pad again to add one of the sentiments to Basic White Cardstock then used a retired 1 1/2" circle punch to punch it out, then used Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up. Lastly, I added a few Rainbow Dots to finish the card.

Serene Love DSP - Everyday Occasions

Hello Stampers,

Today I made 3 cards using all but 1 1/4" of a 6x6 piece of DSP, these were inspired by last week's Creativate Spring pre-challenge.

A lot of the product used on these cards are on the Last Chance list. I started this card using Serene Love DSP, cut it as directed then back each piece with Basic White Cardstock. The layer behind each of these focal points is Night Of Navy Cardstock which was embossed using the Dashing Designs, Distressed Tile, & Fern 3D Embossing Folders. Next, I used the Unbounded Love Bundle & the Everyday Details Stamp Set for the sentiments using the Night Of Navy Ink Pad & Basic White Cardstock, each sentiment was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals. Lastly, I added a few embellishments from the Neutral Matte Dots or the Iridescent Pearls.

Coffee With Friends - Let's Get Together Soon

Hello Stampers,

Today's card features a set that is on the Last Chance list & it's one set I don't think I've used much. I paired this set with a fun fold I found using a tutorial from Jackie Bolhuis.

I started the card using a Crumb Cake Cardstock base which I paired with a piece of Country Woods DSP. Next, I stamped one of the images onto Basic White Cardstock using Memento Black Ink, then coloring it in with Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Melon Mambo, Pecan Pie, Boho Blue, Granny Apple Green, Smoky Slate & Basic Black Stampin' Blends Combo Packs. I then cut it down & layered it onto a Crumb Cake Cardstock layer, which was then placed on the top part of the card. I used one of the sentiments from the set stamping it with Memento Black Ink onto Crumb Cake Cardstock, die-cutting it using the Stylish Shape Dies then used Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to add it to the top part of the card. I added a few retired Enamel Pebbles to finish the card.

Here I'm just showing how the card opens & how I used another image stamp from the set on the inside.
