Stampin' Up! Very Versailles & More!

Day 12 of live videos, and I'm so very inspired by your kind comments!  Today, I used the Very Versailles & Colourful Seasons stamp sets. Plus, on the second card some brand new products!!

I began by stamping  the script image from Very Versailles in Merry Merlot onto Whisper White, then inked up the leaves/branches in Mossy Meadow.   For the sentiment, from Colourful Seasons, I used Merry Merlot, then cut it with one of the Ornate Layers dies.  I wrapped linen thread around the sentiment 3 times, adhering it with Glue Dots, then made a double linen thread bow which is also adhered with Glue Dots.

I stamped the script image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Whisper White which I had already cut using one of the Stitched Rectangle dies.  The daisy is from the brand new Ornate Style stamp set. It was heat embossed onto vellum, and coloured using Stampin' Blends: Dark Lovely Lipstick, and Light Daffodil Delight & Old Olive.  I cut the vellum using one of the Stitched Rectangle dies.  The sentiment, from Very Versailles, is stamped in Tuxedo Black onto Melon Mambo cardstock & cut using one of the Stitched Nested Labels dies.

Do you love the embossed layer??!!  It's the NEW Ornate Floral 3D folder! It's definitely a must-have for your craft room!! Before adhering this layer to the base, I wrapped the Old Olive ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo!  You'll want this ribbon combo also!

A viewer of my videos requested I do the inside of my cards so she could get some ideas, and I did do the inside of both cards today, which you can view on my video below.

Colour Theory & Colourful Seasons

I have a treat for you today!  As mentioned in a previous post, I did a workshop where the ladies all made four cards, and I'll be showing you one of those cards today, plus a similar card I made for an anniversary.  Two cards today!

I kind of had my doubts about the Colour Theory DSP, but I'm sooooo over it! The ombre paper I used for the layer is fabulous, and in that same DSP pack was the paper I die cut for the flowers. It has a crackle look it it, adding another dimension to the flowers - love!!

 I used the dies from the Colourful Seasons bundle for the flowers.  The sentiment & branch, also from the Colourful Seasons bundle are both stamped in Crumb Cake ink. I used my Pretty Label punch for the sentiment, then added a few Glitter Enamel Dots for a wee sparkle.

Some of the flowers were adhered with my Fine Tip Glue Pen, and the balance of the flowers, plus the sentiment are popped up with dimensionals.  I finally got to use my mini dimensionals - they are the perfect size for small cutouts!  

Here are a couple of pic from the workshop

Now for my second card - a lovely 60th Anniversary card.  Once again I used paper from the Colour Theory DSP., for the layer and flowers.  I'm always happy to bring out the Glimmer Paper, and especially for such a momentous occasion! Sixty years is extraordinary!!

 I used my Happy Birthday Thinlit, and easily cut 'Birthday' from it, then die cut the 6 & 0 from my Large Numbers Framelits.  The 'th' and word Anniversary stamped on the inside of the card are both from the Number of Years stamp set.

The picture doesn't do this card justice - the glimmer is spectacular!

Here's the inside of the card.  I used Smoky Slate ink for the sentiment.  I hope you can see the Whisper White die cut flowers.  They add a simple, yet elegant touch.

A Spring Wedding

I attended my nephew's wedding yesterday and my heart is full of joy!  When the bride started walking down the isle I almost burst into tears. Stephanie was so beautiful and glowing with love, smiling at her groom.  Andrew is a lucky man!

Naturally, I made a special card for this joyous occasion.

If you haven't guessed already, I'm a huge fan of white on white cards, and embossing.  For this card I used my Softly Falling TIEF on the Whisper White layer, then die cut the heart in Blushing Bride and the 'congrats' sentiment in Silver Glimmer Paper both from Sunshine Wishes Thinlits.

This sentiment is perfect for a wedding card. 

Both the sentiment and flower images are from Colourful Seasons.

Oh boy, I am one determined gal. I wanted the 'congrats' sentiment raised so I cut a dimensional into slivers and used tweezers to place them on the back of the sentiment.  So happy it worked!

A simple, yet elegant card, made with love for Stephanie and Andrew.

The happy couple.

Below are some of the supplies I used.
