PEACEFUL GREENERY IS NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS!

Posted on by

I took a very good look at the Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder and said to myself, “SELF, that is not just for Christmas!” I grabbed the Peace on Earth dies and a few odd floral die cuts languishing on my craft desk and set to work.

  • Stamps: With You In Mind
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock, Lemon Lolly
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Peace on Earth dies, Delightful Wishes dies, Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder, 1/4″ White Ribbon, Dauber, Party Dots (retired), Stampin’ Dimensionals

Those flowers are Lemon Lolly, cut from the Delightful Wishes dies. They have a little Daffodil Delight ink daubered on them for dimension, and there are some flecks amongst the Peaceful Greenery as well.

I added a few white die cuts on top of the Embossing Folder, and tucked in a Lost Lagoon one as well. The text from With You In Mind was cut out with my trusty Snips (oh, I hope we have a substitute soon!)

I had a moment of complete inspiration and ran the back flap of the envelope through the Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine with the embossing folder and let me tell you, it is GORGEOUS. Run, don’t walk to the Online Store for the Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder. Your SELF will thank you!

LONG TIME NO LLAMA!

Posted on by

The only reason there isn’t a llama on my September DIY Calendar is that even without a neck it’s too tall. But there’s plenty of room on a card, especially a portrait-oriented card: check out my llamas from Long Time No See!

  • Stamps: Long Time No See, With You In Mind
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Poppy Parade, Pool Party
  • Accessories: Stampin’ Blends, White Bakers Twine, Party Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Take Your Pick tool, Paper Snips (no longer available)

I took my time with this one, and it was really fun. I shaded each of the llamas a little differently, but kept their llama-neck-sweaters the same colors. (Please tell me you get the joke.)

I used the Pool Party Stampin’ Blend to color some White Bakers Twine, then poked holes to wrap it around the tallest neck. For some reason, I’ve been obsessed with deconstructing the twine lately – no idea why, I just do it.

I also indulged a whim and fussy cut the word BIRTHDAY from With You In Mind. I tried a number of sentiments on labels and banners, but this is what the card told me it needed. (Yes, I talk to the cards. And they answer me.)

Long Time No See is an Online Exclusive from earlier this year, so who knows how long it will be around. I’m happy to have it as I love these dorky faces with their dorky noses! Add a little whimsy to your crafting. It’s good for your soul.

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS: MEMORIES AND MORE

Have you used our Memories and More card packs? They’re super versatile – use them for memory keeping, of course, but they’re also full of fun images ready to use and patterns that coordinate, much like our Designer Series Paper. Today’s card uses up some remnants I had languishing on my craft desk.

  • Stamps: Charming Day
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Daffodil Delight, Timid Tiger, Balmy Blue, Berry Burst, Granny Apple Green
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Stylish Shapes dies, Party Dots, Memories and More Celebration Expressions card pack, Stampin’ Dimensionals

The designs do all the work on this card. It’s just mix, match and SEAL! Gotta love it.

I’m loving the Happy Birthday from the Charming Day Online Exclusive release. I think I ink it 50/50 to split it (as I’ve done here) more than use it in a straight line. All products are available in the Online Store.

DELIGHTFUL WISHES ON GINGHAM VELLUM

You have to see this coordinating Specialty Vellum DSP in real life to truly appreciate it. The colors are luminous, and it’s a perfect compliment to the Floral Delight Suite. It’s on my “replenish asap” list!

  • Stamps: Delightful Wishes, Elements of Text, Ice Cream Swirl
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pecan Pie
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Greetings of the Season dies, Floral and Gingham Vellum Specialty DSP, Stampin’ Write marker, Party Dots, 3 Color Bakers Twine Pack, Masking Paper, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I masked the flower spray before I stamped the script text from Elements of Text (love love love!!!). It took me a little bit of experimenting to align the flowers and the stem, and since I designed this card as a club group project, I made a “cheat sheet”. Putting numbered dots on the block helped to sequence the images and find the top each time!

The Floral Delight Suite is a beauty, but it’s low inventory right now, so don’t wait to order it. You’ll earn credits towards your favorite Sale-a-bration choices when you add it to your cart – what’s not to love?
