Bee My Valentine - You Can Do Amazing Things

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by the Creativeate Summer pre-challenge which was a sketch. I went really girlie with the colors from the DSP.

I started with a Petunia Pop Cardstock base, followed by a layer of Bubble Bath Cardstock. I used 3 different patterned papers from the Cute As Can Bee DSP which was glued to the Bubble Bath Cardstock. I then used the Nestled Essential Dies to die-cut a frame for the focal point out of Basic White Cardstock. For the bee, I used the Bee My Valentine Stamp Set on Basic White Cardstock stamping with the Petunia Pop, Bubble Bath & Memento Black Ink Pads, then used the Bee Builder Punch to punch out the pieces. For the sentiment, I used the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set with the Petunia Pop Ink Pad. Lastly, I added a few retired 2024-2026 Shimmer Gems to the antennas.

Everyday Happiness - Thanks

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by an old card template from Jackie Bolhuis, she has many videos of templates to inspire your creativity.

I started the card off with a Lost Lagoon Cardstock base, then added an additional layer of the same color & embossed it with the Damask Designs Embossing Folder. The focal point was made by using the Everyday Happiness DSP added to layers of Pretty Peacock & Gray Granite Cardstocks. The sentiment came from the Impressions Abloom Stamp Set & was stamped using Lost Lagoon Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock. Lastly, I added a few retired Earth Tone Shimmer Gems to finish the card.

Sunflower - Your Kindness Made My Day

Hello Stampers,

Happy Wednesday everyone! I've made it thru to the half way point of the week without baking to death & we have a bit of a break from the triple digits for a bit. Today I wanted to showcase a new Online Exclusive embossing folder that became available at the beginning of the month.

I started with a piece of Darling Duckling Cardstock & embossed it with the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder. This focal point was then layered onto Mossy Meadow Cardstock then I wrapped some Linen Thread around it before adding it to a Basic Beige Cardstock base. For the sentiment, I used the Mixed Labels Stamp Set stamping it onto Basic Beige Cardstock using the Mossy Meadow Ink Pad, then used Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to add it to the card. Lastly, I added a few Low Profile Sparkle Dots to finish the card.

Beautiful Gallery - Thinking Of You

Hello Stampers,

Today's card was inspired by one of the Creativate Summer pre-challenges & they are calling the technique Mirage Strip. Love it & it isn't too hard to do just takes a bit of time between cutting & pasting.

I started with a piece of Beautiful Gallery DSP, cut it into strips then glued it to a piece of Mossy Meadow Cardstock, then layered both onto a Crumb Cake Cardstock layer & Basic Beige Cardstock base. For the sentiment, I used the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set with Mossy Meadow Ink to stamp the sentiment onto Basic Beige Cardstock with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
