ThrowBack Thursday: Blooming Birthday

Posted in Birthday, New Product Intro / Video, Quick -n- Easy by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I would like to share a post from August of 2014 … It’s still as relevant as it was two years ago. This is a sweet and simple birthday card that will bring a smile to anyone who receives it.  I used the new “Flower Patch” stamp set!  This is one of our Photopolymer sets, and makes the two-step stamping super simple because of the clear images.

I have a video for you to view that highlights the “Flower Patch” stamp set …

My card base color is the new In-Color Mossy Meadow along with the Whisper White which truly highlights to ink colors we will be using on our card.

The flower was created by stamping our largest image first, in the lightest color: Crisp Cantaloupe.  I then layers the Calypso Coral next, and completed the flower with the Cajun Craze… and topped it off with a pearl.

STAMPIN’ TIP:  The leaves were added behind the flower by creating a mask.  Stamp the largest flower image on a piece of scrap paper and cut it out.  I always cut inside the line.  Then place it over the flower and stamp your leaves … it gives the appearance they are behind the flower!

It’s been a while since I’ve used a two-step stamping set and forgot how fast you can create a beautifully layered, colorful card.  I added the Daffodil Delight flowers in the background to create another pop of color.

There is no longer a bundle available as this was an earlier post.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card and video!

Happy Birthday ~

April Showers …bring me flowers!

Posted in Thinking of You / Hello Friend by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Hope you had a wonderful weekend … it was great to see the sun again! Today we have rain in the forecast, but you know what they say … April showers bring May flowers.

Well … you don’t have to wait that long because I have flowers for you today! I choose the “Flower Patch” stamp set and “Flower Fair” Framelit dies to create my card. Did you know that if you bundle these two items you can save 15% … that’s awesome!

My color scheme consists of … So Saffron, Bermuda Bay, Old Olive, and Calypso Coral.  You can get the two tone stamping by inking up your image, stamping off, then stamp your cardstock for the lighter color. Others are stamped fully inked to get the rich deep tone.

I love having framelits or punches that coordinate with our stamp sets, it makes life so much easier than “fussy cutting” the flowers out! I popped  up the flowers with the use of our Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting comes from the stamp set; Banner Blessings.

This uplifting set will surely bring a smile to many faces. A crowd favorite, this stamp set will be sure to shine. Recommended clear block size is D (not included in the set).

I stamped the image directly onto the card, and then onto a small piece of Whisper White and then cut out the banner to add some additional texture & dimension to the top of the card. It really helped even out the card since the flowers were all layered and popped up.

Thanks for stopping by today … I hope you enjoyed the spring bouquet of flowers.

Have a fabulous day ~

Beautiful Day …

Posted in ON SALE!, Stampin' Up! card ideas, Thinking of You / Hello Friend by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

So … Did you guess which one of the new Weekly Deals was my favorite?  If you guessed the Elegant Butterfly – YOU were correct!  The Square framelit dies come in a close second.

I thought I would share with you a card I created using my 2 favorites from this weeks, Weekly Deals … the Elegant Butterfly and the Square Framelits!

000_1362

The “Mossy Meadow” cardstock you see, is simply folded in half.  Make sure your framelit sits above the fold so you do not cut the cardstock into 2 pieces.

I used the beautiful “Flowering Flourishes” stamp set, and teamed it up with the “Gorgeous Grunge” to create some depth to the card.

000_1364

As you can see … I layered the Petite Petals (in Black Raspberry) with the Boho Blossom (in Razzleberry) punches to create my flower.  The Elegant Butterfly and Bitty Butterflies also used the above color combination.

000_1366

I topped them off with the Rhinestones to create a bit of contrast and add some sparkle.  A beautiful friend always “shines”.

And finally, the greeting comes from the stamp set; Flower Patch.  I just used that stamp set on Sunday, so you can add this to your collection of samples for the Flower Patch set … so versatile.

000_1365

I hope I’ve inspired you to add the Square Framelits and Elegant Butterfly to your stampin’ collection … and while they are on Sale.  Just click on any links below for details – although the sale items do not reflect the sale price below, they will come up in your shopping card as the sale price.

I would be more than happy to place an order for you, if you do not shop on-line.  You can e-mail me at lindaluvs2stamp@aol.com

Thanks for stopping by ~

Have a “BE*YOU*TIFUL Day!

Blooming Fast to Blooming Beautiful

Posted in Birthday, Quick -n- Easy by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

My card share today reflects my “Fast Friday” theme.  This beautiful birthday card is so easy to make, you could pump out a dozen in less than 1/2 hour!!  It’s a great way to create a stash of birthday cards and then get back to the fun in the sun!

I began with the beautiful “Park Lane” Designer Series paper.  This package has many unique designs and will work great for the ladies, the guys and even the kids!

000_1174

I chose the floral pattern in Whisper White and Old Olive, and cut the paper to use the large flower as the focal point of my card.

The greeting comes from the new “Flower Patch” stamp set … fitting, don’t you think!  The “Flower Patch” stamp set is in the new Photopolymer material.  I love it, it’s perfectly clear and sticks to the blocks fabulously!!

000_1175

I then cut my greeting and Old Olive mat from the “Apothecary Accents” framelits.  I did not want the greeting to overpower the card, but just added a bit of bling to draw your eye to it.

I hope you enjoyed today’s quick card.  Stop back tomorrow … I’ll be sharing another beautiful card using the “Park Lane” Designer paper.

Thanks much & have an awesome day!  It’s Friday 🙂
