TEXTURED NOTES:COLOUR INKSPIRATION #181

I am so overdue for a Colour INKspiration challenge! My life has been really full since the holidays, but when I saw this Colour combo I told myself I HAD to make time for it.

  • Stamps: Textured Notes
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Azure Afternoon, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Summer Splash
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Textured Notes dies, Stampin’ Write markers, Party Dots, Pack Your Bags Twine, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I’ve tried a lot of methods to get those tiny flecks. The one that works consistently for me is to use a Stampin’ Write marker and flick the brush tip against the cap. That gives me uniformly small, evenly dispersed flecks and that’s what I want.

The Textured Notes dies are an absolute must for your crafty stash!! They will be available on Wednesday March 5th as part of the new Online Exclusive release. Don’t miss it! You NEED these dies. Best way to find them is to long into the Online Store and click on What’s New.

CORNER IN BLOOM IN WILD WHEAT

This image is one of the single, not-a-corner images from Corner in Bloom, and the more I looked at it, the more I saw something wheat-like. I’m not a farmer, and I’m pretty sure I’m close but not quite on the mark with this, but it was close enough in my book. It had to be done in Wild Wheat.

  • Stamps: Corner in Bloom (SAB 2025), Translucent Florals
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Textured Notes dies, Natural Tones Linen Thread, 23-25 In Color Opaque Sparkle Dots, 23-25 In Color DSP Pack, Stampin’ Dimensionals

We’re getting close to the end of the story for Wild Wheat and the other 23-25 In Colors. I confess I did not love Wild Wheat when I first saw it, and in fact compared it to something kind of yucky having to do with new babies. (Use your imagination if necessary.) But it’s worked its magic on me, and I’ll be sad to see it go.

The new Textured Notes dies will be available March 5th and they are AWESOME!! Put them on your list.

In the meantime, this is your final boarding announcement for Corner in Bloom. Doors will be closing SOON. Shop now.

FRIENDLY SEAGULLS: THANKS

I grew up in Santa Barbara, California, and seagulls were the bird-soundtrack of our beach days. Their noisy calls and antics are a big part of my memory, and I still love to watch the rascals when I visit home. Needless to say, Friendly Seagulls (SAB 2025) was a must.

  • Stamps: Friendly Seagulls (SAB 25)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Wild Wheat, Poppy Parade, Gray Granite
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Perennial Postage dies, Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder, Mini Alphabet dies, Wild Wheat Jute Twine, Toadstool Garden DSP (SAB 25), Stampin’ Dimensionals

The Mini Alphabet dies are the BEST!!! One crank of the Stamp Cut Emboss Machine and you have all the letters PLUS extras of the ones you use the most. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

If you live anywhere near seagull habitat, you need these stamps. If you vacation near seagull habitat, you also need these stamps. If you just like a lot of sass and attitude, well, you can guess what I’m gonna say. See them in the Online Store. But don’t wait too long – Sale-a-bration is winding down! You’ve got until February 28th.

CORNER IN BLOOM: BEAUTIFUL BEGINNINGS

Posted on by

Today’s Corner in Bloom is a square card, a format I don’t often use because it requires a special envelope and extra postage. But this card just begged to be a square, and I couldn’t say no. (Please don’t judge me for talking to my projects.)

  • Stamps: Corner in Bloom (SAB 25), Something Fancy
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lolly, Granny Apple Green
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Stylish Shapes dies, Fern 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Blends, Low-profile dots, Gold Open Weave trim, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Corner Rounder (retired)

As much as these flowers needed Daffodil Delight, that color was too much as the mat behind the colored image. I chose Lemon Lolly instead, and it’s surprising how much difference a small adjustment like that makes.

This layout is super simple – really just a bunch of stacked squares – but it makes great use of these beautiful corner stamps. Shop the Online Store for your own Corner In Bloom.

SENDING LOVE WITH PERENNIAL POSTAGE

I’m crossing my fingers that the Perennial Postage dies stick around for a while. I especially like the look I get when I mask off the edges. They were perfect for this special Galentine:

  • Stamps: Sending Love
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Coastal Cabana
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Perennial Postage dies, Petal Pink Trim, Masking Paper, Blending Brushes, Low Profile Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I masked the edges of the large die cut to create that “postage stamp” look. I also masked off the mailbox and the circle in the middle of the “postmark”. I’ll tell you a secret: masking the mailbox was to make it easier. 😉 I used the Blending Brushes to create the backgrounds, and let me tell you, they are SO forgiving!

The sentiments in Sending Love are perfect. I like to use this one on the back of the envelope, too.

Hope your Valentines’ Day is sweet!

A MAGICAL TERRIFIC TOADSTOOL

Today’s Toadstool Magic has a lot more white space. The Fern 3D Embossing Folder adds a woodsy feeling and a little texture to this simple layout.

  • Stamps: Terrific Toadstools
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Melon Mambo
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Stylish Shapes dies, Toadstool Builder Punch, DSP Color Family Packs, 24-26 In Color Shimmer Gems, Stampin’ Dimensionals

I was wasting time doing research online looking for card sketches and came across this one. Don’t know why it tickled my fancy, but it did – thank you, Tina!

Where do you stand on Terrific Toadstools? I confess I love these bright colors, but I recently spotted some talented crafters (more research, you know) working in neutrals and I’m going to give that a try, In the meantime, you can shop the Online Store for these beautiful, vivid tones. Thanks for stopping by!

TERRIFIC TOADSTOOLS: BRIGHT THANKS

Today’s card is full of pattern and color – you just might need your sunnies! 😎

  • Stamps: Terrific Toadstools, Seaside Wishes
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Soft Seafoam, Melon Mambo, Fresh Freesia, Granny Apple Green
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Stylish Shapes dies, Toadstool Gardens DSP (SAB 2025), Adhesive Shiny Backed Sequins, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Yup – did you notice? The Goldilocks “dits” from Seaside Wishes make yet another appearance. They’re my fave.

And so are these little mushies from Terrific Toadstools. There are so many shapes and sizes, and since the stems are separate from the caps you can create color combinations to your heart’s desire. I chose my colors based on the Toadstool Gardens Designer Series paper.

You can find Terrific Toadstools in the Online Store in a sweet bundle with a builder punch. Add the Stylish Shapes dies to your cart and you’ll qualify for a pack of this charming Toadstool Gardens DSP. But hurry, Sale-a-bration ends February 28th.

SEASIDE WISHES for FRIENDS

Do you keep every stamp set and bundle, or do you let go of older stamp sets? As a demonstrator, I try to work with only current products, but there are a few that go into my “forevah” box. I’ll always have Seaside Wishes.

  • Stamps: Seaside Wishes, Heartfelt Hexagon (retired)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Basic Beige, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Pool Party
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Seaside Wishes dies and Hybrid Embossing Folder, Heartfelt Hexagon punch, Stampin’ Dimensionals, a very old set of card bases with matching envelopes

I made these a month or so ago, and the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set has retired. The punch is still available, and I love this shape. It’s different enough to be interesting without being weird. It makes great interlocking designs, too. You can see one HERE.

This set of printed card bases and envelopes has been languishing in my supply cabinet for a very long time. There are current options in the Online Store.

Seaside Wishes comes in a money saving bundle and includes a Hybrid Embossing Folder. Shop for it in the Online Store.

HAPPY HIBISCUS WITH THE FOREVER PLAID EMBOSSING FOLDER

Posted on by

Happy Hibiscus looks great in shades of yellow, but don’t you think it’s gorgeous in Fresh Freesia?

  • Stamps: Happy Hibiscus, Ice Cream Swirl (sentiment)
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Petunia Pop, Highland Heather, Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut & Emboss Machine, Happy Hibiscus dies and Hybrid Embossing Folder, Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder, Changing Leaves dies, Iridescent 1/2″ trim, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Paper Snips

I did a bit of fussy cutting on the sentiment and set it on the small oval from Changing Leaves. I added Iridescent 1/2″ trim to soften the leaves – it’s a beautiful accent trim.

Happy Hibiscus is an Online Exclusive– search for it by name in the Online store and add it to your crafty toolbox!! It’s a great choice for Sale-a-bration 😉

(Between the two of us, I bought an extra bundle for myself just in case I lose anything. This one is a keeper!)
