I created the meadow easel card using the following supplies:

Thick Basic White card base – 5⅞” by 5⅛ scored on the short-side at 4⅛”
Thick Basic White – 4″ by 3⅛” scored at 2″ on the long side
Basic White – 3” by 1⅞” – embossed using Lovely Stripes Folder
Basic White – 4¼” by 3”
Lovely Blossoms dsp – 5¾” by ⅞”
Lovely Blossoms dsp – 4” by 1¼” x 2
Basic White – 2¾” by ¾”
Scrap Daffodil Delight & Old Olive

 

The three pieces of Lovely Blossoms dsp were glued to the Thick Basic White card base. The long thin one along the top flap and the two shorter, squatter ones on either side.

Meadow Flowers Card – Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are showcasing something we have been working on recently. I am sharing a pretty card made using the Flowering Meadow stamp set and co-ordinating dies.

 

Colours used when making this card are:

 

I created the meadow flowers card using the following supplies:

Gorgeous Grape card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Lemon Lolly – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White – 5” by 3¼”
Mossy Meadow – 2⅛” by ⅝”

Scrap Basic White, Lemon Lolly and Mossy Meadow

 

I inked the double flower image with Highland Heather ink and added Gorgeous Grape ink around the edges with a Sponge Dauber before stamping it on scrap Basic White card. On the same scrap card, I stamped the double stem, two smaller flower stems and two of the leafy sprigs with Mossy Meadow ink. These images were all die cut using the Flowering Meadow dies.

The centres were added to the flowers with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, and the flowers were then adhered to the stems with either Mini Glue Dots or Dimensionals. I then arranged the flowers and leaves on the 5” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. When I was happy with the layout, I adhered everything down with liquid glue, Mini Glue Dots and/or Dimensionals.

Rose in a Vase Card – Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are creating projects inspired by a sketch. I have made my card using the pretty Pop-Up Petals stamp set and co-ordinating dies.

 

Colours used to create this card are:

 

I created the rose in a vase card using the following supplies:

Bubble Bath card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Lost Lagoon – 5” by 3⅜”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Velvet Meadow dsp – 2⅞” by ½”
Bubble Bath – 3⅜” by 2⅛”
Basic White – 3¼” by 2”
Bubble Bath – 1⅝” by ½”
Scrap Basic White and Artisan Sketched Garden dsp

 

I ran one of the largest panels of Basic White card through the Cut & Emboss Machine inside the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder. The embossed panel was then trimmed down to 4⅞” by 3 ¼” before it was adhered to the Lost lagoon layer. The whole piece was glued to the Bubble Bath card front.

The three pieces of Velvet Meadow dsp were added to the card front using Mini Glue Dots.

I glued the smaller piece of Basic White card to the slightly larger layer of Bubble Bath card and added it over the strips of dsp on Dimensionals.

The vase was die cut from a scrap of Artisan Sketched Garden dsp – I actually die cut the vase from several different dsp scraps before settling on this one. The rose was cut down and added to the back of the vase with a Mini Glue Dot before the vase and flower were glued to the card front.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we have a Tic-Tac-Toe board to inspire us. I have chosen the top line – Distress, Blue, Bike. This was a real challenge as distress and vintage techniques don’t come easily to me. I am more of a clean and simple girl.

From scrap pieces of Mixed Up Patterns dsp I die cut 2 onsies and 2 coat hangers. The coat hangers were tucked into the top of the onsies before they were added to the card front. The ones on the right and the left were glued in place and the remaining onsie was added with Dimensionals in the centre.

A paper pieced card made for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop using the Flowers Fair stamp set used with the Kintsugi Inspiration designer series paper from Stampin' Up!

Paper Pieced Flowers – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are showcasing the paper piecing technique. This is one of my favourite techniques which is odd as I am not a big fan of fussy cutting, but it is so effective. I have used the Flowers Fair stamp set and the Kintsugi Inspirations dsp to make my card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the Paper Pieced Flowers card using the following supplies:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Secret Sea – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White – 5¼“by 3½”
Secret Sea – 2⅜” by ⅜
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Kintsugi Inspirations dsp

 

I mounted the large Flowers Fair stamp onto the plate of the Stampin’ Positioner, inked it up with Secret Sea ink and stamped it onto the 5¼“by 3½” panel of Basic White card. I also stamped the image onto the Stampin’ Positioner gird paper.

I selected the two patterns of Kintsugi Inspirations designer series paper from my scraps. Taking one Cloud Cover pattern I cut it into smaller pieces, placed them over the relevant flowers, inked up the stamp and stamped down onto the scraps. The flowers were then fussy cut.

I repeated this step with the Petal Pink dsp and the smaller flowers and fussy cut them out.

The fussy cut flowers were then placed over the identical flowers on the stamped panel. I lifted some of the larger ones on Dimensionals, the rest were glued into position. The smaller flowers were then added with Liquid Adhesive.
