Embrace the Essence of Easter with the Enchanting Easter Lilies Bundle

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, HOLIDAYS by

Happy Sunday Stampin’ Friends,

As we approach the sacred season of Easter, it’s a time for reflection, renewal, and reverence. One of the most beautiful ways to capture the spirit of this holy occasion is through heartfelt crafting. And what better way to do so than with the captivating Easter Lilies bundle?

With this bundle, I embarked on a creative journey, selecting the Glorious Grape shade, a color imbued with symbolism that echoes the essence of Lent – penance, humility, and a profound sorrow for the suffering of Jesus. It’s a hue that speaks volumes, reminding us of the sacrifices made and the journey of faith we undertake during this solemn period.

Complementing this regal color, I opted for Crumb Cake cardstock and embellishments, elements that gracefully symbolize the enduring symbol of Christianity – the cross. As I worked with these materials, I felt a sense of connection to the profound narrative of Easter, each choice and embellishment placed carrying the weight of centuries of tradition and faith.

Stamping palms with Garden Green ink onto Garden Green cardstock, I couldn’t help but marvel at the versatility of this bundle. While Easter may be its focal point, its potential extends far beyond the confines of a single holiday. It’s a tool for expressing devotion, gratitude, and joy throughout the year, infusing every creation with a touch of spiritual significance.

This bundle isn’t just about crafting; it’s about crafting with intention. It’s about infusing each project with meaning and purpose, allowing creativity to intertwine with faith in a truly profound way. Whether you’re creating cards, decorations, or keepsakes, the Easter Lilies bundle serves as a conduit for both artistic expression and spiritual reflection.

As we prepare to celebrate Easter, let us embrace the beauty of this season and all it represents. Let us take a moment to pause, to create, and to connect with the deeper significance of the holiday. And what better way to do so than with the enchanting Easter Lilies bundle, a treasure trove of inspiration and symbolism waiting to be explored.

I thank you and appreciate you taking time out of your Sunday to stop by my blog today. God Bless.

My apologies, I did not realize that the embellishments I used had been discontinued. May I suggest the Brushed Metallic Dots as they could represent the nails in the cross.

Crafting Marvels: Perennial Postage Dies & Perennial Lavender Designer Paper

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

In the vibrant world of card making, there are two elements that can truly elevate a creation: innovative dies and captivating designer paper. Today, we’re diving into a crafting adventure where we marry the magic of Perennial Postage Dies with the charm of designer paper. It’s a fusion of texture, movement, and elegance, resulting in cards that are not just pieces of paper, but intricate works of art.

Enter the Perennial Postage Dies…. these versatile die are more than just decorative accents; they help create our focal point, drawing attention to the heart of our design. By framing our chosen elements with these dies, we create a sense of cohesion and elegance that ties the whole card together, as we align the front panel to the die cut panel inside. You’ll note the unique cut that exposes (gives you a peek) inside the card.

Now, let’s talk about technique. We’re going to take those patchwork pieces dies and work some magic. By popping every other piece up, we create a sense of movement and dimension that immediately catches the eye. It’s like watching a quilt come to life right before your very eyes. The juxtaposition of raised and flat elements adds an element of surprise and delight to our cards. As I put the finishing touches on the card, you can’t help but marvel at the transformation that has taken place… especially if you attended my Perennial Postage Class, as this is a “mash up” of two of the cards we did in class. The possibilities are endless.

So, whether you’re a seasoned crafter or just starting out on your creative journey, take a moment to explore the world of Perennial Postage Dies and Perennial Lavender designer paper. Let your imagination run wild, and don’t be afraid to experiment. After all, the greatest masterpieces are often born from the boldest ideas.

Thanks for joining me today! Have a great weekend.

Stargazing, In the Moment Card

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Wow … I am loving the way this card mash up turned out! I took the Stargazing Designer Paper and teamed it up with the In the Moment stamp set. I had mentioned in one of my YouTube videos that I thought these two would pair nicely …. What do you think?

I knew I’d be using the image of the lady that is looking out towards (whatever you choose) and today it’s the Stargazing paper. I picked the pattern that include the blues and pinks … I really wanted her image to pop off the page.

I felt that she actually makes the best sense and easiest to “fussy cut” … although, with a steady hand and an exacto knife, you probably could use the lady looking out the window as well.

I actually picked out which of the Stargazing patterns I wanted to use first, I wanted to make sure there was plenty of stars and a little bit of color. Then I cut it down to 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ so I could mat it with Basic White that measured 4 x 5-1/8″. I chose white so that the greeting, her shirt and the stars would coordinate nicely. The card base is Night of Navy 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″.

I used the Stampin’ Blends to color her … I used the Light and Dark Pecan Pie for her hair, and the Light and Dark Berry Burst for her hat and her skirt. Her shirt has a touch of Light Smoky Slate (only by the lines) and then I smoothed it out with the “Color Lifter”. Her arms are the #800 from the Natural Tones. The wine is also Berry Burst … sounds yummy too!

The wood deck was colored with #100, #300 and #500 from the Natural Tones … You will find these Stampin’ Blends on page 136 in the Annual Catalog.

I glued the bottom of her skirt and the deck directly to the cardfront and then popped up the head, arms and shirt to give it some dimension and texture. The greeting was stamped with Memento Ink and die cut from the “Sending” die … and then I used the small round black brad from the Round and Square Brads. I love using brad because I never have to worry if they will fall off my card!

The greeting was popped up too. Then to finish off my card, I added 5 of the Iridescent Rhinestone around the stars. This card was one of the ideas I shared in my video so I thought I would bring it to life … and I really love the way it turned out.

I may have to order more of this paper … and the sale ends at midnight tonight!

Thank you for joining me today, and a happy Friday to you!!

Enjoy your weekend ~

Birthday Buzz: A Bee-Themed Celebration!

Posted in Birthday, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today, we’re buzzing with excitement as I showcase a delightful card featuring the Bee My Valentine Bundle, but with a twist – it’s all about birthdays! Who said these bees were only for Valentine’s Day? I’m flipping the script and infusing some birthday cheer into our crafting with this fun and vibrant card design.

The front of the card is the vibrant floral pattern from the Bee Mine Designer Series Paper. This paper not only adds a burst of color but also sets the perfect backdrop for our birthday celebration.

At the center stage, our adorable bee friends are highlighted courtesy of the Perennial Postage dies. These fussy cut bees create a charming focal point, bringing the theme to life. But what’s a bee without its shimmer? A touch of Wink of Stella on the bee wings adds a magical sparkle, elevating the whimsical vibe of the card.

While the card may be buzzing with bees, it’s all about sending heartfelt birthday wishes. To emphasize this, I’ve cut the card front short to prominently display the birthday greeting from the So Sincere stamp set. It’s all about making sure my recipient knows they’re being celebrated on their special day!

No birthday card is complete without a bit of sparkle! Besides the Wink of Stella on the wings, I’ve adorned my card with iridescent rhinestones, strategically placed to highlight the stamped birthday greeting. These little gems not only add a touch of elegance but also make the card truly shine.

As card makers, we have the wonderful ability to create moments of joy and celebration through our handmade creations. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or just a day to spread some love, there’s nothing quite like receiving a handmade card filled with thoughtfulness and care.

With the Bee My Valentine Bundle, I’ve shown that you can take a theme traditionally associated with one occasion and adapt it to suit any celebration. Birthdays are just the beginning – imagine the possibilities for weddings, graduations, or simply sending a “thinking of you” message!

Thanks for hanging out with me to discover what all the “buzz” was about!

Enjoy your Friday!

Crafting Magic with Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper, Heartfelt Hello’s Stamp Set, and Everyday Detail Dies

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today, we’re diving into the realm of creativity and exploring the delightful synergy that occurs when we combine versatile crafting materials. In this blog post, we’ll shine a spotlight on three amazing products: the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper, the Heartfelt Hello’s Stamp Set, and the Everyday Detail Dies. While not a bundle per se, these items harmonize effortlessly to unlock a world of artistic possibilities. Best part? The Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper and the Heartfelt Hello’s Stamp Set are available in the Sale-a-bration catalog, making them even more irresistible with qualifying purchases, because they are exclusive and FREE!

Let’s start with the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper. True to its name, this paper collection exudes a sense of lightness and elegance. With its dreamy patterns featuring delicate florals, beautiful birds, and soft color palette, it’s perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to any project. Whether you’re creating cards, scrapbook layouts, or home decor pieces, this paper serves as a versatile backdrop that sets the stage for creativity to take flight.

Next up, let’s talk about the Heartfelt Hello’s Stamp Set. This stamp set is all about spreading love and positivity with its heartfelt sentiments and charming imagery. From sweet greetings to thoughtful messages, each stamp is designed to convey warmth and sincerity. Paired with the Flight & Airy DSP, it adds a personal touch to your creations that’s sure to make hearts flutter.

Last but not least, let’s explore the Everyday Detail Dies. These versatile dies are the perfect finishing touch for your crafting projects, adding intricate detail and dimension with ease. Whether you’re die-cutting delicate embellishments or creating striking borders, these dies elevate your creations to new heights of beauty and sophistication.

Now let me show you how these 3 items work together like a beautifully choreographed dance. For both of my cards I am using the Largest of the rectangle dies (upper left-hand corner of picture above), this die cuts two ways. I started with a piece of Basic White cardstock cut to 5″ x 3 3/4″, as it cuts, it leaves you with two pieces … a frame and a second rectangle I’ll use on the “second” card. Let’s look at our framed design:

The designer paper in the back was cut to 5 1/4″ x 4″ so it would peek out from behind our frame. The beautiful bird was “fussy” cut from the designer paper and our greeting was Heat Embossed in white and embellished with the Iridescent Rhinestones … just a little bling for mama.

Here you will get a good feel on all the dimension this adds to your card …

Time to shift our creativity to the center piece of the large rectangle die cut. Let’s begin with some Misty Moonlight and our blending brushed for just a hint of color to highlight our birds. Our backdrop piece of designer paper also comes from Flight & Airy and was cut 3/4″ larger than the rectangle piece.

Our greeting, from the Heartfelt Hello stamp set was stamped with Misty Moonlight Ink and die cut from the smallest rectangle in our featured die set today: the Everyday Details Dies.

In the world of crafting, the possibilities are truly endless, and the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper, Heartfelt Hello’s Stamp Set, and Everyday Detail Dies are here to help you unlock your creativity and bring your artistic visions to life. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or just starting out, these products offer a winning combination of beauty, versatility, and fun. So why wait? Dive in, unleash your imagination, and let the magic begin!

Thank you for joining me today. Have a Happy Wednesday!
