Poinsettia Christmas

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I created using the new Sunny Studio Stamps Layered Poinsettia die set and new large sentiment.

I started by creating my background using a stencil from Altenew and 3 of their mini ink cubes.

I adhered the stencil to my cardstock panel and began applying the colours from the bottom first with my lightest ink and then the next darker ink, then the darkest and then repeating the inks again from dark to light to the top of my card. Used my new Taylored Expressions ink blending brushes. Love, love, love these.

Once I was happy with the stripes I applied a Simon Says Stamp stencil over top of the panel and added Glitter Snow embossing paste.

I stamped the large sentiment also new from Sunny Studio Stamps with Versamark ink and then heat embossed with white powder over top.

The poinsettia was created using 4 different shades of pinks and also a dark green. The leaves were stamped with Versamark and clear embossed. Stamped the berries and heat embossed them in white.

I added my panel to my top folding card base and then added the poinsettia with foam pieces.

Well that's it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.

Hi everyone,

I haven't posted lately as I have been away for a few days in New Hampshire doing some hiking and shopping and picking up some new stamp products from Mama Elephant and Hero Arts. Yeah!!!

I do have a card to share that I actually made before I left but didn't get time to post it.

I used a new stamp and die set from Sunny Studio Stamps called Berry Bliss. I stamped the cherries using 3 different colours of Altenew ink and the stem was stamped using 2 different Simon Says Stamp inks.

Once the cherries were die cut I used some Distress ink to blend a little background colour for the cherries.

I cut 2 strips using Lawn Fawn patterned paper to go on either side of my panel and die cut each using a Pretty Pink Posh die. I used the same die to cut my main panel with. I added the strips directly to the base and foam mounted the white panel over top. I added some water splats and a few accents of Nuvo Jewel drops around the cherries and a bit on each cherry.

The sentiment is also from Sunny Studio Stamps using the Pretty Popsicles stamp set.

Well that's it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.

Hi everyone,

Happy Spring! Yeah!!!
It's finally here but we still have a lot of snow to get rid of but the days are longer, the sun is shining and life is good!

Today's card is for the current Simon Says Stamp challenge which can be found here where the theme is Easter Inspired.

I am still in love with foiling so I used a Paper Smooches flower die and 2 different foil colours to create the focal point to my card. I just love green and purple together.

I cut a window in my card with a stitched scallop die and then cut another piece with some patterned paper and applied it over top.  I used a Lawn Fawn stitched border for each side of the large background piece to my card. Stamped the sentiment on vellum with clear embossing ink and white heat embossed.

I used the stitched border die again to add a border to each side of the sentiment piece.

I then adhered all the little pieces of the flower back in place and adhered it to my card. I added some Nuvo Jewel drops in 2 colours and some Lawn Fawn twine and the card is done.

Well that's it for my card today and thanks for stopping by.
