A gorgeous card for a little girl made usng the Fairy Celebration stamp set

Fairy Celebration and CAS(E) This Sketch #307 challenge

Posted on by

I was making a card today for a friends little daughter, Alys loves dressing up as a princess or a fairy so the Fairy Celebration stamp set was the obvious choice. I used the sketch from the CAS(E) This Sketch #307 challenge for this card.

Making the card

I stamped the gorgeous winged fairy in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap panel of Whisper White cardstock and die cut the image using a Stitched Oval from the Stitched Shapes Die set. I die cut a scalloped oval from the Layering Ovals dies from Highland Heather cardstock and adhered the two layers together with liquid glue.

I coloured the fairy image in using the following Blends pens – Highland Heather Combo, Soft Sea Foam Combo, light Daffodil Delight, light Smoky Slate and Ivory.

Using my Paper Trimmer I cut a piece of Botanical Butterfly dsp to 3⅝” by 2½” and adhered it, with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, to the bottom of a panel of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝”. This panel was added to a panel of Highland Heather measuring 5½” by 3¾” and the whole piece was added with the same adhesive to the front of a Soft Sea Foam card base.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto a strip of Soft Sea Foam cardstock ⅜” wide and trimmed it to size. This was added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the ‘magic sprinkles’ in Soft Sea Foam ink onto the stamped oval and near the top of the Whisper White panel. The stamped fairy was then added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added some Clear Wink of Stella to the fairy’s wings and magic sparkles and added a scattering of Iridescent Sequins for a bit of sparkle.

I added a layer of Whisper White inside the card and stamped the sprinkles on this and on the front of a Whisper White Envelope.

I think this card is gorgeous. I hope Alys likes it.

Butterfly January Classes

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the trio of cards made by the ladies who came to the Butterfly January classes this week. The class was designed around the Butterfly Gala Stamp set and co-ordinating Butterfly Duet Punch and was inspired by a card I made for the Inspire Create #032 challenge on the 4th December 2018. I also wanted to give each lady a 6” by 6” sample pack of the gorgeous Botanical Butterfly dsp to use in class and to take the remainder home to add to their stash.

The first card we made was the card I designed for the Inspire, Create Challenge involving embossing and adding ink using sponge brayers, such a fun technique. As I have already blogged about this card please follow this link for all the details –

A Little Note card

We started with a Lemon Lime Twist card base, each lady then chose a piece of dsp from their sample pack, cutting it to 5⅝” by 3⅞”. The upper right corner of both the card base and the dsp were rounded using the Detailed trio Punch and the dsp added to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

We stamped a sentiment in Lemon Lime twist ink onto a panel of Whisper White measuring 4⅛” by 2¾”, rounded the upper right corner before adding the panel to a layer of Highland Heather 4⅜” by 3”. This panel was then added to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Lastly the ladies selected a large and a small butterfly from the dsp and punched them out using the Butterfly Bouquet Punch. The butterflies were added using Mini Glue Dots and the card was finished with a scattering of Basic Rhinestones.

Butterfly Birthday card

We started the final card by choosing a piece of dsp and laying it, offset onto the front of a Thick Whisper White card base. I then lifted the corner and applied Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive underneath before trimming away the excess dsp and adhering the rest of the panel. Some of the ladies found it easier to draw around the dsp making it easier to trim off the excess.

We stamped a sentiment in Highland Heather ink. Next we punched out 1 large and 3 small butterflies adding them to the card front using Mini Glue Dots and finishing with a scattering of Basic Rhinestones.

I hope you like these cards.
