Thank You Kindly

This is the first project I put together using the So Refreshing stamp set and I paired it with one of the Basics 3D embossing folders.


The circle in the background was created with the Delightful Doily Hybrid Embossing folder, it is die cut and embossed, although it is a little difficult to see the embossing in the photos. 
I cut out the lemons and glass of lemonade with my paper snips and popped them up with Stampin' Dimensionals next to the pitcher.


Supplies:
So Refreshing
Lost Lagoon, Pool Party, Lemon Lolly, Mango Medley ink
Coastal Cabana, Basic White, Lemon Lolly card stock
Inked Botanicals dsp
Delightful Doily Hybrid Embossing Folder


Make each moment you celebrate even sweeter with the So Refreshing Stamp Set. Sip a tall, cold glass of lemonade or iced tea in the summer or prepare a floral arrangement of colorful gladiolas. The Two-Step stamps add classic details and a more realistic design for each of your paper craft projects. Add soft or vibrant colors, mix and match the images, and pair with a heartfelt sentiment to create a customized look every time. We know that no matter the occasion you’ll be reaching for this stamp set time and time again!

This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colors you want.

Celebrate You

I used some "new to me" products on this card, showcasing the Delightful Doily Hybrid embossing folder. This product comes with both dies and an embossing folder and you can actually place the dies inside the embossing folder along with your card stock or you can use the two items separately.


I used an Old Olive card base and Misty Moonlight for the large doily and the ink color. The sentiment is from the Layering Leaves stamp set and I also added some Tinsel Gems Four Pack embellishments and 1/8" Cotton ribbon from the combo pack.


Supplies:
Layering Leaves
Misty Moonlight ink
Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Basic White card stock
Delightful Doily Hybrid Embossing Folder
1/8" Cotton Ribbon Combo Pack
Tinsel Gems Four Pack

Create the doilies of your dreams with the Delightful Doily Hybrid Embossing Folder. Create dainty doily cutouts using the dies alone or combine the dies and embossing folder to add rich texture to your cutouts. Give your handmade cards a simple, elegant background texture by using the embossing folder alone. This dynamic duo is great for all crafters of all kinds: the combination of dies and embossing folder offer a whole host of creative options in a timeless, classic style you’ll love!

* 1 embossing folder
* Embossing folder size: 4-1/2" x 6-1/4" (11.4 x 15.9 cm)
* 4 dies
* Largest die: 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) diameter
* Use with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine

Our hybrid embossing folders create ornate die-cut pieces with rich texture in one simple pass through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. The dies fit inside special ridges in the embossing folder for easy, one-step cutouts with dimension. Use the dies and embossing folder together or separately for a variety of looks and styles.


The Layering Leaves Stamp Set has everything you need to send heartfelt thoughts to a friend! For all your paper crafting occasions, you can create naturescapes with a simple message to show how much you care. Winter or spring, the Two-Step stamped leaves allow you to add unique texture by layering the images. The sentiments also look great when cut with punches or dies. This set is refreshing, just like the great outdoors. Get yours today! Also available in French.

This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colors you want.

Senior

In addition to wheat harvest, our youngest started her senior year of high school in the last couple weeks (and our boys went back to college as a junior and a last semester senior). For the final first day of school picture, I decorated a wooden arrow using lots of Soft Shimmer paper and card stock.


The letters were die cut with the retired Large Alphabet Dies and the flowers and stem were die cut with the Timeless Charm dies. I added some Sheer Ribbon, Brass Butterflies, Flat Self-Adhesive Pearls and Basic Rhinestones to complete the project.

The Soft Shimmer paper is so easy to work with and dies not shed glitter at all which I love. 


Supplies:
Soft Shimmer paper
Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly, Old Olive, Moody Mauve, Basic Black card stock
Brass Butterflies
Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls
Basic Rhinestones
