Using the 2 largest images from the Hand-Penned stamp set I randomly stamped all over the large piece of Basic White using Evening Evergreen ink. I kept the images as close together as possible, turning them to get a good fit.

I cut one of these pieces in half again and mounted both strips onto one of the larger Basic White panels with the liquid glue. I wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adhering it to the Daffodil Delight card base.  Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies I cut 2 labels, one from the small piece of Basic White and the other from the larger piece of Soft Succulent. The sentiment was stamped on the smaller label in Soft Succulent ink, the panels were the glued together and mounted on the card front on Dimensionals. I added a bow on a Mini Glue Dot.

Using one of the large images I stamped in Soft Succulent ink onto the Soft Succulent card base. The Basic White panel was added to the centre of the card front. The remaining stamped panel was added to the Evening Evergreen layer with liquid glue, then to the Basic White panel on the Soft Succulent card base. Using Polished Pink ink, I stamped the sentiment onto scrap Basic White card and trimmed it out with scissors. I added a scrap piece of Soft Succulent to the back of the sentiment and glued it to the card base.

I used the light Mint Macaron, light Purple Posy, light Flirty Flamingo and light So Saffron Blends to draw lines from side to side all the way up the 2” strip of Basic White card. I choose to leave a thin white line between each colour to give some definition to each colour.

Pretty get well themed cards made using the Under My Umbrella Bundle from Stampin' Up!

Under My Umbrella for February Classes

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the cards made at this months classes featuring the Under My Umbrella stamp set and Umbrella Builder Punch.

We started by stamping the floral images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink randomly over a panel of Whisper White card stock measuring 3½” by 2¾”. The flowers were then coloured in using the following Blends Markers: Daffodil Delight combo, Melon Mambo combo, Bermuda Bay combo and Granny Apple Green combo.

We stamped the wellies onto the decorated panel in the right hand corner and cutting them out using sharp scissors.

We used a pre-punched template and the Stamparatus to line up the 2 umbrella images so that they would punch out easily. They were stamped on the decorated panel in Memento Tuxedo Black and punched out using the Umbrella Builder punch. These images would form the basis of the three cards.

Pretty get well themed cards made using the Under My Umbrella Bundle from Stampin' Up!

To recreate the Folded Umbrella card you will need:

Melon Mambo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Basic Black – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – x 2 one for the outside and one for the inside.
Basic Black – 3” by 1”
Scrap Smoky Slate

Using PostIt Notes were masked off 1” from the left and 1” form the bottom of a Whisper White panel. WE used the embossing Buddy to remove static before randomly stamping the grouped flowers using Versamark ink.

The panel was then covered with White Embossing Powder which was heat set using the Heat Tool. We then used a sponge to apply Melon Mambo ink to the embossed section creating an ombre effect. The PostIt notes were then removed.

The umbrella handle was punched out of the scrap Smoky Slate card stock and added to the back of the umbrella using a Mini Glue Dot and added to the card front on a Dimensional. The panel was then added to the Basic Black layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive before being added to the Melon Mambo card base with the same glue.

The sentiment from the Healing Hugs stamp set was stamped in Versmark, covered with White Embossing Powder and heat set as above. The banner end was created using the Banner Triple Punch.

To recreate the Welly Boots card you will need:

Daffodil Delight card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic Black – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Melon Mambo 3” by 3”
Whisper White 3” by 3”
Whisper White Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – x 2 one for the outside and one for the inside.

We die cut a circle from the square of Whisper White and a slightly larger scalloped circle from the square of Melon Mambo cardstock. The sentiment from the Sending You Thoughts stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and the ‘wellies’ added above using the liquid glue.  We placed the circle onto a Whisper White panel, over hanging the right side and lightly drew round it in pencil. This would act as a guide when we stamped the boots. The two circles were then adhered them together with liquid glue and the right hand side trimmed off.

The welly image was stamped around the pencil circle using alternating Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo ink. The panel was then glued to the Basic Black layer and then to the Daffodil Delight card base. The decorated circle was added with Dimensionals.

Basic Black – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – x 2 one for the outside and one for the inside.
Scrap Smoky Slate

We used a piece of Whisper White card stock and die cut a circle from the centre. We used the negative space as a mask to mask off an area of  one of the Whisper White panels. Using Sponges we blended Bermuda Bay ink lightly onto the circle before stamping the raindrops randomly in the same ink. The sentiment form the Well Said stamp set was stamped in Black in the lower right corner of the inked panel.

The handle was punched out from scrap Smoky Slate card stock using the Umbrella Builder Punch and added to the open umbrella with a Mini Glue dot. The umbrella was added to the card front on Dimensionals. The stamped layer was glued to the Basic Black panel and added to the Bermuda Bay card base.

I love the vibrant colour palette of these cards, they are sure to brighten up somebodies day.

Leaving the stencil in position I placed the panel into the Stamparatus and positioned the detailed metal die face down on top, I added a second foam piece to raise up the panel. I added some temporary adhesive to the back of the die and closed the hinged panel picking up the die. I inked the die with Poppy Parade ink and stamped it down.

I stamped the outine rose in Terracotta Tile ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock, I added the detailed layer in Rococo Rose ink and the solid layer in 2nd generation Rococo Rose ink. These colours go so well together. The rose was then die cut using the Wild Rose dies.

The outline leaves were stamped in Garden Green ink with the inner layer added in Soft Sea Foam ink. They were die cut using the same set of dies.

A lovely card made using the Humming Along stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Humming Along

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a card using the sweet Humming Along stamp set. This is not a set I have but luckily I was over at one of my oldest friend and downline Jo’s house today and she wanted some tips on using Blends pens and this was the perfect set to demonstrate with.

To recreate the Humming Along card you will need;

Crumb Cake card base 8¼” by 5⅞”
Crumb Cake cardstock 5¼” by 3½”
Poppy Parade cardstock 3¾” by 3” – rounded upper right and lower left corners
Thick Very Vanilla cardstock 3⅝” by 2⅞” – rounded upper right and lower left corners
Very Vanilla cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside

The lovely flower was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the small panel of Thick Very Vanilla cardstock, personally I find the blends markers blend more smoothly on the Thick cardstock, my first tip. I used the the Dark Real Red and Dark Poppy Parade Blends for the flower. I usually start with the dark colour then blend it out with the lighter colour, going back when it is dry and adding more dark shading as necessary. The leaves were coloured with Dark Granny Apple Green and Light Old Olive. The stamen was coloured with the Dark Pumpkin Pie and Dark Pineapple Punch.

A pretty floral card made using the Lasting Lily Stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Lasting Lily

Posted on by

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.
