Butterfly Gala with Lace 3D Embossing Folder

Sometimes, a white card is the way to go, when you

need something elegant. The butterflies from Butterfly Gala

(page 70) offer several different patterns and lovely

sentiments.   I sponged the whisper white layer with

Flirty Flamingo and Coastal Cabana and then ran it through

the Lace 3D Embossing folder (page 184).   Finally,

I added some Wink of Stella to the butterfly wings, to

make things sparkle.

Way to Goat with Umbrella Builder

When looking at Way to Goat (page 105), I usually

want to put something in that goat hoof.  In my head,

it's either dancing, or using some sort of prop.

In this example, I used the Umbrella Builder punch

(page 167) to create a prop. In hindsight, I could have

added some rain!  I used the sentiment from the 

coordinating Under My Umbrella set on page 20!

 

Forever Fern with Garden Gateway Die

This card is a combination of the Forever Fern stamp set

(page 110), Forever Flourishing Dies (page 175) and the

sprig from Garden Gateway on page 181.  I really enjoy

using glimmer paper, including this Balmy Blue on page 37

of the August-Dec 2020.

I added a bit of the In Good Taste Designer Series paper

on page 148.  The background layer was run through the

Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder

 

Stamp Off Sparkle and Shine Moose

Welcome to another Stamp Off Challenge,

with Susan, Buffy and myself.

This week, we are creating cards that 

Sparkle and Shine.

I will always love this moose punch (Aug-Dec 2020

catalog, page 27).  It can be used to create a formal

card, or a silly card.  It pairs well with so many products

and papers for the Christmas Holidays.

For this card, I used the Plaid Tidings Designer Series

paper (Aug-Dec 2020 page 57), adding a strip of 

Brushed Metallic 12x12 Cardstock (page 45).

Finally, the sentiment comes from the Word Wishes

Dies on page 183.  These words work for so many

different occasions!

Now please pop on over to see what Buffy and Susan

have created for our Sparkle and Shine Challenge.

Gnome for the Holidays with Word Wishes Dies

I'm kind of jumping ahead to Christmas, but the Gnome 

for the Holidays set (page 23 of the Aug-Dec 2020 catalog)

deserves a preview.  The little gnomes are a happy bunch and

work with so many other products.  

In this example, the sentiment comes from the Word Wishes

dies on page 183.  I really like set of dies, because they represent

most of the major holidays.  They work especially well with the

gnomes, because the font is sort of scribbled.  

The snowflakes come from the Christmas Layers dies on

page 180.  The sentiment and snowflakes were made out of

Brushed Metallic Cardstock (page 45, Aug-Dec 2020).

The backdrop behind the gnome is Plaid Tidings DSP

(page 57, Aug-Dec2020).  The base was run through the

Winter Snow Embossing Folder (page 37).

 

Wreath Builder with Hippo Happiness

 

This card is a combination of products.  I used the heart from

Wreath Builder on page 173.   I love that the heart has the

lettering.   I combined the heart with the ewe from

Hippo Happiness (page 49) and the Hippo and Friends Dies

(page 176).  This bundle is discounted 10% when purchased together.

Of course I had to layer them on some great DSP.   The

In Good Taste pack is perfect for rustic images.
