Timeless Tulips

I am hoping Spring gets here soon.  I see lots of robins in my yard.  I keep looking for the buds on the trees but have not seen any yet.  My daffodils are coming up.  I love Spring.  it is my favorite time of the year.  I don't have any tulips planted so I decided to give Spring a head start and make a card using Timeless Tulips stamp set. I demonstrated this stamp bundle on stage at our Stampin' Up On Stage conference.  I bought the beautiful Flowering Vine Dies and cut out the Gray Granite cardstock with it to make the background for the tulip.  Here are the products I used:

Vine Design stamp set

Blushing Bride 8 1/2 X 5 1/2"

Basic Black 4 X 5 1/4"

Peony Garden DSP 3 3/4 X 5"

Gray Granite 3 1/4 X 4 1/4"   for the die

Pear Pizzazz card stock (small strip for the stem)

Hey Chicks

Today I had friends stamping with me and I made this card.  The Hey Chicks bundle and the Birthday Chicks bundle were used.  I used Cajun Craze for the card base and layered a piece of the Gilded Autumn DSP (5 1/4 X 4).  It is the one with the speckles on it.  I thought it looked like someone had sprinkled chicken feed around.  I used Basic Gray for the chicken coop, Garden Green and Daffodil Delight for the corn stalk and daffodil for the chicks,  I stamped the chickens on Whisper White and colored one with Crumb Cake marker, Real  Red and Pumpkin Pie.  The overlay is a Window Sheet stamped with All Wired Up and Stazon ink.  There is a Cajun Craze frame (5 1/2 X 4 1/4") on top.  A scrap of Whisper White is used for the tag.   The light from my camera reflected on the window sheet in a couple of places so please disregard the two white areas.  Did you notice that two of the little chicks escaped the fence.  They are headed for trouble.  Lol. A sack of chicken feed is leaning on the frame.  I used Crumb Cake for that.

Paper Blooms

Sale-a-bration is going strong.  Paper Blooms is one of the freebies with a $50 order.  You can make so many cards or decorate boxes and bags.  During COVID, I have tried to send lots of Thinking of You cards to my friends who are shut in.  We have a group of ladies called the "Hungry Sisters" that meet once a month at a restaurant.  Most are widows and they say eating is a lonely time for them.  We were going to meet twice a month, but this pandemic hit and it has caused us to shut down for a while.  So I try to make a happy day for them by sending cards.  This card is very simple.  I used the designer paper for the flowers.  I had to fussy cut them out.  I did use a leaf punch (retired) for the greenery and a gold hoop to accent. 

The card base is: 

Whisper White 8 1/2 X 5 1/2" and a scrap for words

Paper Blooms DSP is 5 1/4 X 4

Gold hoop and dimensionals.  That's all you need.  Thanks for visiting my blog.  

 

Guy Card

Do guys wear suspenders any more.  My Dad never had them.  I made this card using the Plaid Tidings DSP in the Holiday Mini catalog.  I believe the DSP is retired now but it is perfect for guy shirts.  I used the following to make the card:

Whisper White card base 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4"

Glad Tidings DSP 4 X 5  1/4"

Brass Foil scrap

Merry Merlot for suspenders and buttons.  The buttons are so cute.  They could be used on any card.  I cut the collar of the shirt out and adhered it with dimensionals so that it looked like a shirt collar.  Before I adhered it to the card I cut  a v out at the neck.  The dies emboss as well as cut.  It's a cute card that any guy would be proud to receive.

I don't usually put hearts on my cards but I know I should.  This is a lovely card I made for my card club.  Here is what I used to make the card:

Stamps:  Always in My Heart

Floral Heart Dies

Seaside Spray card back is 5 1/2" X $ 1/4", 1/4 of a sheet was used to cut the heart.  The heart was embossed with the Dainty Diamonds Embossing Folder after the cutting.  Always emboss after cutting with the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine.  If you emboss first your embossing will be smooshed (is that a word) during the cutting.

Whisper White is 11" X 4" scored at 5 1/2", a scrap for the clowers

Silver Foil scrap for the leaves.

Silver Embossing powder  with Versamark for the words.

I hope you like my card.  Thanks for stopping by.  

Always meets Fine Art Floral

I am so in love with the Fine Art Floral suite in the Jan-June Stampin' Up! Mini Catalog  on pages 32 -34.  Everything about this set is drop dead gorgeous. The Golden Garden Designer Specialty paper over lays on one piece of the Fine Art Floral designer paper.  I have done that on this card to give it some gold.  My card details follow:

Stamps:  Peaceful Moments stamped in Flirty Flamingo on Whisper White and punched with the Timeless Label Punch

Poppy Parade cardstock is 11” X 4 ¼” scored at 5 ½”

The Designer paper and the overlay is 5 ¼” X 4” and adhered to the card. 

Always Dies were used in Flirty Flamingo on Whisper White.

I wrapped Gold twine around the card and tied in a bow.  I love this card and I hope you do also.
