Simply INKredible Stamping

Sending Prayers card

Good Morning Stampers,  I have made another lovely card that could be used for any occasion.  The designer papers in the Occasion catalog are absolutely beautiful as always but this catalog has gone way beyond beautiful. I used the leaves dsp  cut to 4 X 5 1/4". This card uses the Whisper White thick cardstock cut at 8 1/2 X 4 1/4"  The stamp set is Wonderful Romance (148632) and I used the matching Floral Framelits (148529) to cut the leaves.  I stamped the card with Old Olive on a piece of white measuring 2 1/4 X 3 1/2".  I am in love with that color. The leaves are stamped on a scrap and cut out with the framelits.  I layered the Old Olive  3 X 4' and embossed with the Layered Leaves embossing folder.  The Floral romance dsp was used - the vellum Petal Pink is cut to a tag  2 X 5" and punched with the Banner Triple punch.  I wrapped linen thread around the card and put a flat gold button for decoration.  The small twig is cut with the framelits in Mellow Moss. Sentiment is stamped on a Petal Pink scrap and stamped in black.  I hope you like my card. I am trying to do better about posting to this blog.  Sometimes life gets in the way.  Have a great day.

Lovely Day Card

For today's card, I used a beautiful set and fabulous designer paper from the Occasions catalog.  It could be a Valentine card or a special day card.   The stamp set is Forever Lovely.  I used Lovely Lipstick as the card base 8 1/2 X 4 1/4", Whisper White 3 X 4 for the framelit cut and a scrap for the oval sentiment. The Designer paper is All My Love on page 5 of the Occasions Catalog cut to 2 1/2 X 4".   The ribbon is Powder Pink ruffled 4 1/2".  Pearls were added to each end of the ribbon I attached the ribbon with Tear & Tape.The ink is Lovely Lipstick.  I hope you love my card today.  This card will be in my class on January 22 in my stamp studio. Sign up for the class.  I would love to see you.  Have a lovely day.

Botanical Butterflies

Sale-a-bration has begun at Stampin' up!.  This is the best sale of the year.  Sorry I have not posted in a while.  Please forgive me.  I am so inspired with the new stamps in the Occasions catalog and the Sale-a-bration catalog, that I have been in my stamp studio for days making cards.  This card is using the Botanical Butterfly DSP in the sale-a-bration catalog.  It's free with a $50 order.  The paper has colorful butterflies on one side and black and white on the other side.  On the black and white side, you can color the butterflies in any color(s) you like.  The paper is gorgeous.   To make this card, you will need a few simple items.  Here they are:

Whisper White card 1/2 sheet, Botanical Butterflies dsp cut to 3 1/4 X 5 1/2", Botanical Butterflies black polka dot 5 1/2 X1"  Black Twine wrapped around the card and tied in a bow.The sentiment is stamped in Memento Black on a scrap ow Whisper White.  It is in the Humming Along stamp set in the Occasions catalog (pg 36).    Now that was very easy and what a beautiful card it is.   Have a beautiful day.

Sea of Textures Card

I love anything that has to do with the sea.   I will be making this card in my clubs.  I used Sea of Textures stamp set and Under the Sea framelits (Bundle 148357W or 148358CM).

I used the following to make the card:

Cardstock: Tranquil Tide 11 X 4 1/4, Soft Sea Foam 1 X 5 1/2, and another scrap, Crumb Cake 3 X 3, Very Vanilla 1/4 sheet and a scrap of Calypso Coral.

DSP is Tranquil Textures ( 146331)

Stitched Label Thinlits, Natures Twine in Mint Macaron

Fold card in half and stamp with Fishnet stamp in Tranquil Tide. Layer  DSP and strip of Soft Sea Foam to the card.  Using the thinlits, cut out the fishnet in Crumb Cake, the Star fish in 2 sizes in Vanilla, sea grasses in Soft Sea Foam and Calypso Coral.  Layer per card.

Stamp the Octopus in Blackberry Bliss or any color of your choice and cut out with the thinlits.  On a scrap of Vanilla, stamp the fishnet in Tranquil Tide and the words of your choice.  I cut the cat out using the Stitched Label Thinlits.  Tie the twine around the card.  Wasn't that easy?  Such a great card.  I cased this idea somewhere and don't remember where. Have a blessed day.

Beautiful Card

I cased this card and changed it a little bit.  I used the Abstract Impressions bundle (148348) on page 129 of the new Catalog & Idea Book that is available as of today at 5 PM EDT. The card is So Saffron.  The designer paper is from the new paper stack "Garden Impressions (146289).  I used the new Soft Sea Foam and the Spruce Green card stock and punched the leaves.  The Springtime Thinlit is just beautiful. You can even cut the flowers apart if you like.  I hope you like the card.  Thanks for stopping by.  

Lovely card using Petal Palette by Stampin' Up!

I just love the Petal Palette stamp set.  Everything about the set I like.  I cased this card.  It features the spotlight technique.  The base card is Cherry Cobbler.  Gives it a sort of vintage feel. I hope you love it. 

Petal Palette Card

I don't normally make gray cards.  I cased this one and do not know who it belongs to.  I love the Petal Palette set.  I am so happy it will be in the new Catalog & Idea Book. I also used the Petal Pair embossing folder.  This is another quick and easy card for you.  I hope you enjoy it.
