Everyday Arch Dies Make Happy Birthday Rainbow

Hello Stampers,
Today's card was inspired by a card I saw on FB yesterday & I was like "oh I can make something similar with Stampin' Up! products!" 

I started die-cutting with the Everyday Arch Dies using Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Shaded Spruce, Azure Afternoon & Gorgeous Grape Cardstocks, then layering each piece on top of each other. I used the Unbounded Love Stamp Set to stamp the sentiment onto the Gorgeous Grape die-cut piece with the Memento Black Ink Pad. Next, I used the retired Cloud Punch to add a couple clouds using Basic White Cardstock under the rainbow. I used a Basic White Cardstock base, followed by a layer of Everyday Skies DSP, before attaching the die cut using Multipurpose Liquid Glue & Stampin' Dimensionals.

MMS072924 - Feel Better & Happy Birthday

Hello stampers,

Yesterday was a busy day & it was made harder with some bad news that caught me off guard. So I really needed to just stamp to take my mind off of things. Luckily Sharon Armstrong had posted a new Mystery Monday Stamping tutorial & I set off to make the 2 cards.

I chose to use the Countryside Inn DSP along with Basic White, Balmy Blue & Night Of Navy Cardstocks for both cards. I used the Wanted To Say Dies for the sentiment die-cuts. Lastly, I added a few Rainbow Dots & Ombre Dots based on the color of the sentiment. These are really nice, easy cards to make following the tutorial my brain didn't need to think about what to make.

We Wish You A Merry Christmas

Hello stampers,

I'm thinking that Merriest Trees may be my top set that I use for this years Christmas cards, which I better get busy working on so I can mail them in a timely manner. I say that every year but hopefully this year I won't procrastinate too much.

I started this card with a Basic White Cardstock base & layer that I embossed with one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folder. I die cut using the Merriest Tree Dies- the tree using Granny Apple Green Cardstock; the star with Daffodil Delight Cardstock & the tree base using One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. I used Garden Green Ink to stamp one of the sentiments from the Merriest Tree Stamp Set. Before adhering the tree to the base of the card, I used a Blending Brush to add some Daffodil Delight Ink to the base where the star would be to make it look like it's illuminating & added a Basic Rhinestone to the middle of the star.

Rainbow Patchwork Pieces

Hello stampers,

I had a bit of fun with some paper piecing today using the Patchwork Piece Dies, thanks to Heather on the Stamp Review Crew for using them on Monday's blog hop & remembering I just got them. I saved the sun bursts for another time. The one thing I thought about these dies is that they had a border with them & they don't, which is totally fine just reworked my card a bit.

For the die-cut pieces, I used Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Azure Afternoon, Granny Apple Green, & Gorgeous Grape Cardstocks then adhered the pieces to a Basic Black & Basic White Cardstock backing layer. These were then attached to Basic White & Basic Black Cardstock layer with Stampin' Dimensionals before being added to the Azure Afternoon & Daffodil Delight Cardstock bases. I used sentiments from the Trucking Along & Playing In The Rain Stamp Sets with Azure Afternoon & Memento Black Inks with Basic White & Daffodil Delight Cardstocks. For one sentiment, I used Paper Snips to fussy cut a banner end & the other I used Stylish Shape Shape Dies. I added Sparkle Gems to finish both cards. Now, to figure out what to do with all the other pieces, lol!

Your Strength Is An Insiration

Hello stampers,

Today I made a card for a color & inspiration challenge for The Card Concept, Of course, I started the card based on the color combo, but then seeing the pelican on the pillow brought me to bring out the Waves Of Inspiration stamp set, that I think I've used once maybe twice since getting it.

I started with a Basic White Cardstock layer & stamped the wave using Coastal Cabana Ink, added the flying birds with Pebbled Path Ink & then used the Blending Brushes to add just a tad bit of color for the sky with Balmy Blue Ink. Next, I made a frame using a layer of Coastal Cabana Cardstock die-cut using the Deckled Rectangles Dies & 2 wave components out of Coastal & Basic White Cardstocks. I stamped the pelican & a sentiment from the set using Pebbled Path Ink on Basic White Cardstock then die-cut them using Waves & Cheerful Daisies Dies. I glued the wave piece to the frame and then attached to a Coastal Caban Cardstock base. Both the sentiment & the pelican were popped up using Mini Dimensionals before adding to the card.
