My Friend

It has been quite awhile since I pulled out the Painted Poppies stamp set and made a card with it. I love how easy the images are to color in with either Stampin' Write markers or Stampin' Blends and for this image, I used Stampin' Write markers.

In the background, I have some Glimmer paper along with Balmy Blue and Magenta Madness card stock that were embossed with retired embossing folders. The flower layer was die cut using the Scalloped Contours dies and the sentiment was die cut with the Messages Die.

Painted Poppies, Many Messages

Memento Black, Smoky Slate ink

Stampin' Write Markers

Very Vanilla, Magenta Madness, Balmy Blue card stock

Glimmer Paper

Needles and Stitches

Recently I taught a class at a retreat and we put together the cards and box in the first picture using some retired items and some current ones.  My theme was needles and thread since the retreat was a combined scrapbooking/card making and quilting retreat.  

We used the Love of Leaves and Needles and Thread stamp sets, Hydrangea Hill designer series paper, Needlepoint elements framelits, Lace 3d folder, Tin Tile folder, and Gingham designer series paper.

The two cards in the other pictures are made using the same concepts, but different sentiments and slightly different layouts.  

I added some Rococo Rose card stock and used the Stitched Rectangle framelits along with the Many Messages stamp set and Messages die for these...

The background on the last card was made using the Rectangle Postage punch on some Hydrangea Hill designer series paper and then adhering it to Highland Heather card stock. Next, I used the Tin Tile embossing folder on the piece to make it look quilted.

Fine Art Messages

Today I have several cards to share with you all using the Many Messages Bundle and Fine Art Floral designer series paper.

For the first one, I chose Old Olive, Night of Navy and Rococo Rose card stock colors and used a die cut made with the Stitched Nested Labels dies.

The next card also uses the Golden Garden Designer Specialty Acetate which matches the pattern of the designer series paper and is used as an overlay.

The strip behind the sentiment is just another pattern of the designer series paper and for this card I used Old Olive and Balmy Blue card stock colors.

On the last card, I chose to use Merry Merlot, Mossy Meadow and So Saffron card stock colors and added dry embossing using the Brick and Mortar embossing folder.

I could use the combination of this designer series paper pack with the Many Messages bundle all day long especially with so many different sentiments and patterns to choose from!

Argyle Birthday

Usually when I put together cards like this one, I like to make extra die cuts so that I can put a few together instead of just one.  When I do that, I like to mix up the colors and patterns (for example on this one I would mix up the pattern of the shirt and maybe the color of the tie).

The shirt is made with the Well Suited designer series paper and the shirt, tie and suit are die cut with the Suit and Tie Dies.  The sentiment is stamped and die cut with the Many Messages bundle.

I colored the tie in with a Balmy Blue Stampin' Blend and the suit is embossed with the Absolutely Argyle folder.

It’s easy to make a great impression! Just place flat cardstock in this embossing folder, run it through a die-cutting and embossing machine, and out comes cardstock with a bold textured design. 3D embossing folders take embossing to the next level, with deeper, more detailed impressions than standard embossing folders—great for card fronts and accents.
