A pretty Easter card made using the Sunshine & Tulips stamp set and the Reason To Celebrate stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Easter Tulips Card – Stamping Dreams Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stampin Dreams Blog Hop where we are creating with an Easter theme. I have made my Easter tulips card using the Sunshine & Tulips stamp set.

 

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the Easter tulips card using the following supplies:

Bubble Bath card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Granny Apple Green – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White – 5¼” by 3½”
Mixed Up patterns – 5¼” by ⅜”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾”

 

I mounted the tulip leaves on the small Stamp Positioner platform, lined it up with the left edge of the smaller panel of Basic White card. I inked the leaves with Granny Apple Green ink. The plate was then moved along and re-inked until a row of tulips leaves appeared.

I repeated this step with the image of the outer tulip petals in alternating Daffodil Delight or Strawberry Slush inks. The Tulip buds were then added with either Lemon Lolly or Bubble Bath ink.

A daisy patchwork themed thank you card made using the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper used with the Lovely Arrangements stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Daisy Patchwork Card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are creating using embossing folders. I have used the pretty Lovely Blossoms dsp and the new Lazy Daisy Embossing Folder to make my card which was inspired by a Youtube video from Alisa Tilsner

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the daisy patchwork card using the following supplies:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Basic White – 4¾” by 3⅝” – finished dimensions
Secret Sea – 1” by 1” x 12
Lovely Blossom dsp – 1” by 1” x 12

 

I glued each of the 1” squares of designer series paper to the 1” squares of Secret Sea card, with a small border showing at the bottom and right side.

I hadn’t managed to get them straight or the borders even so started to trim down the top, bottom and both sides in an effort to make the layer even and straight. Inevitably, I kept cutting until there was no border left…………

A pretty dsp pinwheel card made using the Mixed Patterns designer Series paper from Stampin' Up!

Designer Series Pinwheel Card

Today I am sharing a pretty, dsp pinwheel card inspired by fellow demonstrator Patti Dolan.  I have used the pretty Mixed Patterns designer series paper (dsp) to make my card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the dsp pinwheel card using the following supplies:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Night of Navy card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Mixed Up Patterns dsp – 12” by 1”
Night of Navy card – 1” by 1” x 2

 

I lightly drew two pencil lines on one of the 5½” by 3¾” pieces of Basic White card. One 1¼” from the bottom and the other 1¼” from the left edge. This helps to line up the dsp.

 

A pretty dsp pinwheel card made using the Mixed Patterns designer Series paper from Stampin' Up!

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Mixed Patterns designer Series paper used to make a pretty dsp pinwheel card

The piece of dsp was lined up on the bottom line where the two lines cross and glued into position. I cut off the excess and moved the strip to the left and rotated 45°. Again, I lined it up in where the lines crossed, glued it in position and trimmed off the excess.

I cut the 1” squares of Night of Navy card, diagonally in half giving me four triangles. I added a triangle to each piece of dsp to form the pinwheel shape. At this point Patti ran the whole panel through an embossing folder……I forgot!

Using Misty Moonlight ink, I stamped the largest seashell onto the die cut square. I added the sentiment, from the Terrific Toadstools stamp set, using the same ink. The square was then glued to the Calypso Coral square before being mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped two further seashells, one in Daffodil Delight and the other with Calypso Coral ink. These were fussy cut using sharp scissors. These were glued to the stitched square.
