I have had my first play with the gorgeous new Lasting Lily stamp set. This is one of the Sale-a-Bration choices that you can get for free with a £90 order.

Making the card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅛” by 3⅜”. I inked up the large lily with the Grapefruit Grove ink and stamped it onto the panel. The smaller lily was stamped in the same way. Next I inked up the stems with Garden Green ink which I stamped off once before stamping it onto the Whisper White panel.

I wrapped a piece of Braided Linen Trim around the bottom of the panel and adhered it to the back with Sellotape. The stamped panel was then glued to a piece of Wood Textures dsp measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝”.

I chose a Grapefruit Grove card base and added a 4⅛” by ½” strip od Gingham Gala dsp towards the bottom of the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The stamped panel was added to the card front with Dimensionals. I added a trio of Faceted Dots to complete the card.

The sentiment was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. I die cut the sentiment using my Big Shot and the Rectangle Stitched dies and added it to the Braided Linen Trim with Mini Glue Dots

Such a pretty stamp set. I hope you like the card.

Today I am sharing a sweet card I made for a friends special birthday using the Abstract Impressions stamp set. I really love this stamp set, it Is so pretty and extremely versatile.

Making the Abstract Impressions card

I started with 2 pieces of Thick Whisper White cardstock, one measuring 11” by 5½”, the other 9¼” by 4¼”. I scored both of these panels on the long sides at 2¾” by 5½”. I rounded some of the corners of the smaller Thick Whisper White panel with the Detailed Trio Punch. I chose 2 patterns from the gorgeous Garden Impressions 6” x 6” dsp, one piece was cut at 5¼” by 5¼” and 2 pieces at 5¼” by 2½” and glued them to the larger piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock.

I cut 3 pieces of Mint Macaron cardstock, one at 4⅛” by 3½” and two more at 4⅛” by 2⅝”, rounded the same corners and adhered these to the smaller Thick Whisper White cardstock with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I cut 3 panels of Whisper White cardstock, one at 4” by 4” and the other two at 4” by 2½” and stamped them with images from the Abstract Impressions.

I used Mint Macaron ink and Shaded Spruce ink for the leaves and 1^st & 2^nd generation Powder Pink ink, Calypso Coral ink and Melon Mambo ink for the flowers. I love the depth the multiple layer stamping gives to the flowers.

I die cut the numbers 6 & 0, three times each from Mint Macaron cardstock using the sadly retired Large Numbers dies and glued them one on top of the other using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive making each number thicker. These were added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink onto a ¼” strip of Whisper White cardstock and cut the ends into flags. I added the sentiment over the numbers with glue. To finish the card I scattered some Faceted Dots.
