In the Moment

Here are a couple of card ideas using the In the Moments stamp set and lots of die cuts and Stampin' Blends.

They each use some retired designer series paper and I love to use scraps of old paper and card stock on cards like these in the background. You will also see there are some retired doilies for a little added touch as well.

I used the Layering Squares, Stitched So Sweetly and Scalloped Contours dies to create some layers and the Classic Label punch for the sentiments.

There are lots of different Stampin' Blends used on the two cards, with the images, the possibilities are endless!

Craft a homemade card that encourages loved ones to take time for themselves with the In the Moment Stamp Set. The stamp set imagery includes three women relaxing by looking at the landscape with a lovely glass of wine or indulging in a hobby like reading with their furry friend. The set includes three self-care themed greetings to mix and match with the imagery. The line-art images can be colored using your favorite coloring techniques. Also available in French.

Hand Penned

This card was actually made a few months ago before life got crazy with shipping potatoes, baseball, graduation and late spring planting. Somehow, I am finding myself behind again and not getting a lot of time to create new projects, so I am happy to have some spares to share with you!

The card base is Fresh Freesia and I have some retired Purple Posy ink and card stock added in the mix as well. The flower image was stamped with Memento Black ink and the flowers and leaves were stamped with Pale Papaya, Balmy Blue, Purple Posy and Old Olive. I added some You're a Peach designer series paper and a paper doily along with some Iridescent Rhinestones.

Everything Wonderful

I wanted to play around with the decorative half oval die from the Splendid Stems die set and this is one of the cards I put together doing that. Each one is die cut from the Splendid Day specialty paper and I placed one in the middle of the card edge before adding the ones on the ends and cutting them down to fit the card base.

In the background I stamped some stems before adding the die cut stem, Open Leaf Trinkets, seam binding ribbon and the Stitched Rectangle die cut with the sentiment. The sentiment comes from the Charming Sentiments stamp set and while there are coordinating dies for this set, I chose to use a different die cut to stamp on.

Supplies:

Splendid Thoughts, Charming Sentiments

Soft Sea Foam, Flirty Flamingo ink

Basic White, Soft Succulent card stock

Soft Sea Foam seam binding ribbon

Stitched Rectangles dies

Splendid Stems dies

Open Leaf Trinkets

Daisy Birthday

The Daisy Garden background stamp has lots of detail in the flowers and I decided to use it for one of my Stamp A Stack cards pairing it with the Peaceful Moments stamp set.

I stamped the image in Basic Gray ink and this time did not color in the flowers and stems, matting the stamped layer on Balmy Blue card stock. There is a little bit of Crumb Cake ribbon behind the sentiment.
