We glued one of the Whisper White layers to the Bermuda Bay layer and adhered these to the Soft Sea Foam card base.

We stamped the flower in Cherry Cobbler ink onto the Poppy Parade cardstock and die cut it out using the Beautiful Layers dies. We also die cut the doily from the square of Soft Sea Foam and also die cut a leaf from scrap Granny Apple Green cardstock.

The sentiment was stamped in Bermuda Bay onto scrap Whisper White and punched out using a 1” Circle Punch. This was then added to the centre of the doily. The doily was added to the front of the card. The flower was added to the card on dimensionals and covered with Clear Wink of Stella.

We stamped the gorgeous striped floweronto the longer panel of Whisper White ink in Poppy Parade, Bermuda Bay and Granny Apple Green inks then filled in the gaps with the leaf image in 2nd generation Granny Apple Green ink.

The Poppy Parade strip was then added to the left hand side and the ribbon wrapped around and secured on the back with Sellotape.

The sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade ink and punched out with the Timeless Label Punch. A leaf was stamped over the sentiment in 2nd generation Granny Apple Green ink. We punched out another label in Poppy Parade cardstock, cut it down the middle and glued it to the back of the sentiment so that a little red showed at either end. This was added over the top of the ribbon on Dimensionals. We added a couple of die cut leaves.

The whole panel was then added to the Bermuda bay card base.

The Square Topper Card

We stamped the frame in Granny Apple Green ink onto the small square of Whisper White and added the floral piece at the top in the same ink. The same floral image was then stamped twice on the scrap Whisper White in Poppy Parade ink and the flowers were then fussy cut using scissors and glued over the green flowers. Some of us inked around the flower edges with Poppy Parade ink and a sponge dauber.

The sentiment was added to the stamped frame and the stamped panel was then glued to the Bermuda Bay square.

Using a T square ruler and a pencil we drew a line down the front of the Soft Sea Foam card base. The rhomboid image was then stamped repeatedly  down the pencil line in Bermuda Bay ink and added a line of rhomboids to the right of the original line. When the ink was dry the pencil line was erased. The square topper was then placed over the top on dimensionals.

All the cards were decorated with Red Rhinestones or Basic Rhinestones coloured in with a dark Poppy Parade Blends Marker.

I really like the colour palette of these cards. I hope you like them.

Clean and simple card using the Tropical Escape dsp and the Beautiful Promenade stamp set

Tropical Escape for the Just Add Ink #458 challenge

Today I am sharing a sweet card made for the Just Add Ink #458 challenge, the theme this time is ‘letters’. I used the retiring Tropical Escape designer series paper (dsp) and the Beautiful Promenade stamp set and co-ordinating Beautiful Layers dies to make the card..

To recreate the Tropical Escape card you will need;

Thick Whisper White cardstock 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” on the long side – rounded upper right corner
Tropical Escape dsp 4⅛” by 3¼”
Blackberry Bliss cardstock 4⅛” by ¼”
Scrap Whisper White and Mint Macaron

I glued to dsp panel to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and added the stick of Blackberry Bliss on top.

I cut out the leaves using the same die set turning them over whilst still in the die and applying a dimensional to each leaf. This keeps all the little pieces inside the leaves which were then carefully poked out of the die. The leaves were added to the back of the flower with a little glue.

The baby wipe technique used to make a floral get well card

Beautiful Promenade/Baby wipe technique reprised

Here is another card made using the gorgeous Beautiful Promenade stamp set and the same handmade ink pad that I used for the blog hop earlier this week. I couldn’t help but try out another couple of things while the ink was still fresh.

To recreate the Beautiful Promenade card

Crumb Cake card base – 8½” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Gorgeous Grape 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Very Vanilla 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2 – 1 for the inside and 1 for the outside – rounded upper left corners
Scrap Very Vanilla
Scrap Granny Apple Green

I made my own ink pad by folding a single baby wipe into a square and placing it in an empty clear mount stamp case. I took the Daffodil Delight re-inker and dropped about 12 – 15 drops randomly onto the baby wipe. I repeated this with the Poppy Parade re-inker and finally with Gorgeous Grape re-inker. The dots of ink should spread and merge together with no un-inked areas.

I stamped the outline of the flowers in Poppy Parade ink and Gorgeous Grape ink onto the scrap Very Vanilla cardstock.  I inked up the stripey inner portion of the flower on my homemade ink pad and stamped to fill in each flower. The flowers were then die cut using the Beautiful Layers dies and my Big Shot. Using the Leaf Punch I punched some leaves from the Granny Apple Green scrap cardstock.

The flowers were placed on one of the Very Vanilla panels and the leaves were tucked  behind the flowers with a dab of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The flowers were then added over the top on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the panel but messed it up and ended up stamping it on a scrap of Very Vanilla and gluing it over the top of the mess. Don’t you hate it when you do that!!!

The decorated panel was then added to the Gorgeous Grape panel with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive then glued to the Crumb Cake card base. I added a trio of the Glitter Enamel Dots to complete the card front.

I had an extra stamped and die cut flower which I cut in half and added one half to the inner Very Vanilla panel and the other half to the Very Vanilla envelope.
