March Stamp Club Projects

These are the projects my monthly Stamp Club put together this month.  We used several Sale-a-bration items and the Petal Palette, Rose Wonder and Playful Backgrounds stamp sets.

For the layout, I chose to add a couple different designs from the Springtime Foils specialty designer series paper collection (SAB 2018) and the images are from the Playful Backgrounds stamp set.

Our sympathy card uses Petal Palette and Rose Wonder for the stamp sets along with some Petal Passion designer series paper and ribbon from the Shimmer ribbon pack (SAB 2018).

The final card showcases the Basket weave impressions folder (SAB 2018) and Layering Squares framelits.  We added a strip of burlap ribbon and colored the flower images with Sweet Sugarplum and Pear Pizzazz markers.

Rose Wonder Sympathy

I am still working on sharing the projects I made during a recent retreat - fortunately I was able to complete quite a few different things!  This is another of the sympathy cards I put together, this time using the Rose Wonder stamp set and different layers of stamping.

First, I stamped Old Olive ink on Old Olive card stock and then on the top layer I used Crumb Cake ink for the flower and Early Espresso for the sentiments.  I added a strip of burlap ribbon to break things up a little bit.

Supplies:

Rose Wonder

Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Old Olive ink

Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Old Olive card stock

burlap ribbon

In My Thoughts

I have two different takes on the same sentiment for you today.  Each card uses the same two stamp sets - Rose Wonder and Kinda Eclectic. 

For the first one, I added a piece of Serene Scenery designer series paper to the middle of my card base and added Early Espresso on either side of it that is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. 

Then I added a strip of Delightful Dijon card stock, burlap ribbon and my sentiment layer.

The second card showcases some By the Shore designer series paper and some randomly stamped leaves in the background.

I chose some Tip Top Taupe mini striped ribbon.

Supplies:

Rose Wonder, Kinda Eclectic

Early Espresso, wild Wasabi ink

Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Night of Navy, Delightful Dijon card stock

burlap ribbon

Tip Top Taupe 5/8" mini striped ribbon

Rose Sympathy

I was playing around with my Rose Garden thinlits using different colors of card stock and decided to make a sympathy card using the Cherry Cobbler rose and Garden Green leaf.  Behind the flower I have some Fancy Frost specialty designer series paper that is textured with some branches and leaves.

To make the white pop, I added some Dapper Denim card stock behind the specialty paper and used the same ink color for my sentiment.

Supplies:

Rose Wonder

Dapper Denim ink

Dapper Denim, Garden Green Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White card stock

Fancy Frost specialty paper

Rose Garden thinlits

Embossed Wishes

There is really a lot of different things you can do with the Fancy Frost specialty designer series paper in the Holiday catalog.  The embossed designs on white paper are in six different patterns and I have used pieces for scrapbook pages, card bases (as in the card below) and card layers as well as on 3d projects.  The paper is thicker than designer series paper and holds up well as a card base or scrap book page base.

For this card, I chose to ink part of the front of the card with Soft Suede ink and then added some flowers and leaves using images from the Rose Wonder stamp set.  Next I stamped the sentiment on a separate piece of the same specialty paper and sponged some ink on that as well before popping it up on the card.  The final elements I added were the enamel shapes.

Supplies:

Rose Wonder

Perfect Plum, Wild Wasabi, Soft Suede ink

Fancy Frost specialty designer series paper

subtles enamel dots

sponges

Birthday Window

Today is my sister's birthday and I wanted to do something a little different for her card.  I admit, sometimes I pull a birthday card out of the stash for family birthdays, but it usually depends on how busy life is at the moment.  This time I was able to take the time and make the card I wanted for her.

I decided to make a window using the ovals framelits and added some Fabulous Foil designer series paper behind it.  Then, I used some Stampin' dimensionals all the way around the oval and added some sequins from the June Paper Pumpkin kit inside.

Before I attached that piece to the card, I took a piece of Whisper White card stock and embossed it with the Brick Wall folder.  Then I stamped the flower image from the Butterfly Basics stamp set, colored it in and used a sponge to highlight the bricks.  Then I added it to the Peekaboo Peach window layer.

I did a little more distressing and added some basic pearls before the card was completed.

Supplies:

Butterfly Basics, Rose Wonder

Crumb Cake ink

Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Peekaboo Peach card stock

Brick wall folder

sponge

basic pearls

ovals framelits

Fabulous Foil designer series acetate

In the Meadow

If you are in need of a sympathy card and don't have one ready to go, this is a quick one to put together.  It uses the In the Meadow stamp set for the background and the Rose Wonder set for the sentiments.   



 

It would be easy to dress it up a bit too maybe by using a lighter background and coloring in the trees and flowers...

 

Supplies:

Rose Wonder, In the Meadow

Soft Suede, Early Espresso ink

Mossy Meadow, Hello Honey and Very Vanilla card stock

 

March Stamp Club

 

It is time for stamp club projects again! 

 

I chose a wedding card using the Timeless Elegance designer series paper and Rose Wonder stamp set...

 

and a confirmation card using the All God's Grace stamp set and Simply Irresistible specialty paper.

 

The layout also uses a specialty paper - Shine on and I have added a metallic doily and some washi tape as accents.

 

 

If you think this looks like fun and would like to try out either my monthly stamp club or my Virtual stamp club, contact me here for more information.

 

 

Fear Not

 

I have been sharing creations made with the Rose Wonder stamp set quite a bit, but there is a reason for that!  The sayings in the set are very versatile and I just love that!  

 

This is one of my stamp a stack cards at the moment and the background uses the Woodland folder and a piece of the Color Me Irresistible specialty paper. 

 

Supplies:

Rose Wonder

Baked Brown Sugar, Delightful Dijon ink

Baked Brown Sugar, Very Vanilla card stock

Color me irresistible specialty paper

Blessings of Easter

 

Today's card in a pretty simple one that uses the Rose Wonder and Suite Sayings stamp sets.  I stamped the rose image on some Perfectly Artistic designer series paper (SAB 2016) and then added my sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink.

 

A little layering, some linen thread and basic pearls and there you have it.

Thoughts and Prayers

 

Since I am always in need of thinking of you and sympathy cards, I like to have a variety of them on hand at all times.  This one uses the Perfectly Artistic designer series paper (SAB 2016) and Rose Wonder stamp set.  The background of the designer series paper is slightly variegated and that is easier to see when you are looking at the card and not a picture.

 

I used the Tags and labels framelits for the sentiment and added some silver baker's twine around the card.

 

Another thing you cannot see in the picture is that I used the Wink of Stella glitter brush on the rose.

Rose Wonder

Basic Black ink

Marriage Made in Heaven

 

Happy Valentine's Day!  I am not sharing a Valentine's Day card today, but instead a wedding one.  For me, it works since it is actually my anniversary today as well - 18 years!!

 

I started with the Birthday Bouquet designer series paper and added some layers of that matted with card stock to a Soft Suede card base.

 

Then, I punched out a piece of Tip Top Taupe with the 2" circle punch and stamped my sentiment from Rose Wonder.

 

Supplies:

Rose wonder

Soft Suede ink

Soft Suede, Mossy Meadow, Watermelon Wonder, Tip Top Taupe card stock

I have shown you a few samples using this pretty bundle and thought I would share the video for more ideas.

Fear Not

 

I showed you a birthday card that I made with the Rose Garden thinlits and Rose Wonder stamp set last week and today I have a sympathy card using the same elements.  The sentiments in the stamp set make it quite versatile.

 

This time I did not use the glitter brush on the rose, I left it as is after I attached the die cut to the Pink Pirouette card stock and cut it out.

 

Supplies:

Rose Wonder

Pool Party, Early Espresso ink

Pool Party, Pink Pirouette, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla card stock

Rose Birthday

 

This is the card we gave my mother-in-law last weekend on her birthday.  I used the Rose Wonder stamp set which coordinates with the Rose Garden thinlit dies to create it.  

 

I glued the rose die to a piece of Pink Pirouette card stock and then cut around it before using my Wink of Stella glitter brush on the whole thing. 

 

I added a couple pieces of ribbon, a retired artisan embellishment and some It's my party dots to finish off the card.
