Timeless Textures with Number of Years Birthday Card

I am back from a huge blogging break!!! I had a few huge projects to complete but I hope to get back into the swing of sharing my projects with you.

This a card that I was asked to make for a Friend's Brother's 40th Birthday. I really do love making these types of special cards

To make this card I stamped the Timeless Texture stamp set in Layers on Whisper White card stock with Archival Basic Grey and Black and Smokey Slate inks. I stamped the 40 and Happy Birthday sentiments from the Number of Years stamp set with the same inks. I mounted the stamped piece to a Basic Black card base. To finish the card I stamped another panels for the inside to with on.

I can also show you how to make this card at a party with you and your friends. Just contact me to organise a time to enjoy the amazing benefits our hostess can earn and spend on anything in our catalogues.

Christmas Pines, Pretty Pines Thinlits, This Christmas Paper with Mini Jingle Bell Card

I am loving playing with all the Holiday Catalogue items that I have purchased. This card is for no particular reason other than to just play and to see what I came up with.

I started by choosing the This Christmas Speciality Paper from the Annual Catalogue (the paper is Specialty as it is thinner layering paper and you get 4 sheets of each pattern) I cut the 2 patterns into strips. I adhered these onto a Crumb Cake card base that was stamped with the stars and dots stamp in Crumb Cake ink from the Christmas Pines stamp set. Also using the Christmas Pines stamp set I stamped the frame in Basic Black Archival Ink the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler and stamped the background in Crumb Cake onto Very Vanilla card stock and hand cut it using our Paper Snips. I used the co ordinating Pretty Pines Framelits and cut the pine leaves in Emerald Envy, Garden Green and Pear Pizzaz card stock using the Big Shot and Die Brush and attached these in a spray onto the edges of the patten paper added a bundle of Cherry Cobbler Mattalic Thread and attached this behind the sentiment and centred it over the pine leaves. For a finishing touch I added 3 Mini Jingle Bells to each side of the sentiment. And YES the do even have a little jingle in them!!!!!

Timeless Textures and Mixed Borders with GDP #033 Colour Challenge

I have been missing in action due to school holiday but I am back in action with this week's Global Design Project - Colour Challenge #033 and a look at a new stamp set

I started the project with a piece of Thick Whisper White card stock slightly smaller than  the card front. I took the 3 ink pads for the colour challenge, Sahara Sand, Calypso Coral and Night of Navy and sponged them onto the card stock with a wedge of out Stampin' Sponges for each colour making sure to overlap/blend the colours into each other. Next I took the Timeless Textures scratched stamp and stamped off each colour before stamping onto each sponged colour. I stamped a number of the stamps from the Timeless Textures stamp set in Sahara Sand around and on a diagonal on the card to finish the background. I also stamped off these stamped on a same sized piece of Thick Whisper White card stock for the inside panel. I stamped the sentiment from Mixed Borders into a scrap of Thick Whisper White in Calypso Coral and punch with our 2" circle punch. I used the excess ink from my sponges to create a softer but similar background on the sentiment and the inside panel. I mounted the card front to a Night of Navy card base with Stampin' Dimensionals and sentiment also on Stampin Dimensionals. The inside panel was adhered to the inside using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

You can how my design process works, hints and some chat with friends by watching the video for how I made this card on Periscope till 6pm Wednesday 27th April
