I wanted to back the stamped image with a Starry Sky scalloped circle but we in Europe haven’t been able to order this colour cardstock yet. So, I die cut the scalloped circle from scrap Basic White card and dabbed the Starry Sky ink pad all around the edge to add colour, then set it to one side to dry. When it was dry I adhered to two circles together with the Liquid Glue and added them to the card front on Dimensionals.

A quirky anniversary card made using the Counting Sheep stamp set, a Sale-a-Bration item from Stampin' Up!

Counting Sheep card for the Stamper’s Showcase Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on and I have chosen to share a cute Counting Sheep card made for my daughter and son in laws 1st wedding anniversary yesterday. This gorgeous stamp set is one of the offerings in the up-coming Sale-a-Bration brochure which goes live on the 3rd January along with the July – December Mini Catalogue.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the counting sheep card, you will need:

Pear Pizzazz card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Pacific Point card – 5⅛” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3½” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner – for the inside
Real Red card – 5⅞” by ⅓” x 2
Basic White card – 2 ½” by ⅜”
Scrap Basic White

I glued the 2 strips of Real Red card stock to the Pear Pizzazz card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the Stamparatus I stamped the sweet little sheep in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. T he stamped panel was then removed and replace with the Silicon Mat. I inked the image again with the same ink and stamped it again on to the mat, carefully added the stamped panel – face down onto the inked Silicon Mat and rubbed firmly with my fingers to encourage to ink to transfer. On lifting up the panel the reverse image was seen. Such a great idea.

Using a Blending Brush I inked the ground with Pear Pizzazz ink. I added the tufts of grass in Pear Pizzazz to ground the happy sheep.

I stamped the sheep image again, twice, onto Post It Notes – one on the front and the 2nd on the reverse of the Post It Note. These were cut out using scissors. They were then placed over the 2 stamped images and the sky was added with a Blending Brush, Balmy Blue ink and a torn piece of copy paper.

This card was CASE’d from my lovely upline Mikaela Titheridge – check out her original here  – with a few tweaks of my own.

We embossed the Gray Granite layer using the Brick and Mortar embossing folder and glued it to the Gray Granite card base.

I had die cut ahead of time the stitched rectangle using the Stitched So Sweetly dies. The ladies stamped the medium and small house onto the rectangle in Gray Granite ink and added the panel to the card front.

The larger house and the small tree were stamped in the same ink and die cut using the Home Together dies. The following Blends were used to colour in the die cut house and tree – Gray Granite, Just Jade, Poppy Parade, So Saffron, Misty Moonlight and Balmy Blue. The house was them added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I had die cut the heart for the ladies and the words ‘hooray and welcome’ from the Well Written dies. The ladies trimmed off the HO of hooray and the OME of welcome and glued the o’s one on top of the other to create the word HOME. The word New came from the Well Said stamp set  – -time for a NEW adventure and was stamped on scrap Whisper White and trimmed out with scissors. To complete the card we added a White Baker’s Twine bow.

To recreate the row of cars card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – scored on the long side at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight – 5¾” by 4” – rounded upper left corner

I made this card for the son of a friend who has just passed his driving test.

We embossed the Misty Moonlight panel using the brick and Mortar embossing folder and added it to the Thick Whisper White card front.

The car were stamped across the thin strip of Whisper White card in Gray Granite ink leaving space to add the final card after it had been stamped, die cut and coloured.

The Poppy Parade border was cut using the Ornate Borders dies and added to the back of the stamped layer. The whole strip was then added to the card front.

We stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set on a scrap strip of Whisper White in Misty Moonlight ink. The negative scallop from the Poppy Parade border was added as a little pop of colour. To finish we wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the sentiment and tied it in a bow.

To recreate the Snowy House card you will need:

Just Jade card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – scored on the long side at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner

The final card is a Christmas card – yay…… We used a blending brush (you could use a wedge of sponge or a dauber) to add Balmy Blue ink to one of the Whisper White panel. The panel was then added to the Misty Moonlight layer.

We stamped the house and large tree in Gray Granite ink onto scrap Whisper White card and die cut them. They were coloured in using the same Blends Markers.

The houses were positioned on the card front and snowflakes were stamped around the roof before the house and tree were stuck down with Dimensionals. The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set was stamped in Misty Moonlight ink.

A piece of Poppy Parade ribbon was wrapped around the layer and tied in a bow. The whole panel was then added to the Just Jade card front.

I began by die cutting the second largest star from the old Olive panel using the Stitched Stars dies. I adhered the Window Sheet to the back of the Old Olive panel to cover the star shaped hole. Using the same stitched star die and the next size down I die cut the star shaped frame from Silver Foil and inlaid it onto the Window Sheet covered aperture using a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I used the dimensional strips on the back of the die cut panel to edge the star shape and also on the corners of the panel.  I rubbed the embossing buddy around the inside of the star on the back of the panel to remove any static.

A pretty card made using the Above the Clouds stamp set and Hot Air Balloon punch by Stampin' Up!

Above the Clouds

Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the Above the Clouds stamp set and the co-ordinating Hot Air Punch.

To recreate the Above the Clouds card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded lower right corner
Night of Navy – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded lower right corner
2019 – 2021 In Color dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower right corner
Scrap Whisper White and Night of Navy

I die cut a circle from the layer of Whisper White cardstock using the Layering Circle Dies making sure to allow the circle to overhang the edge. I added this layer to the layer of dsp with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole piece was then glued to the Night of Navy panel.
