Absolutely Amazing

For this card, I paired a couple differently colored patterns of designer series paper from the Expressions in Ink collection with the Color and Contour stamp set. 

In the background, I used Polished Pink, Pale Papaya and Bumblebee ink to add some random images and then added the Evening Evergreen and designer series paper layer over the top. The glimmer paper is from last year's Sale-a-bration and the sentiment is punched out using the Label me Lovely punch.

This card contains lots of layers of stamped images, but not very many layers of card stock. I chose to decorate the card base with several different two step images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that was a Sale-a-bration item in 2021.

On top of the stamped images, I added some 5/8" White Frayed ribbon and a sentiment layer using Stampin' Dimensionals that was die cut using the Stitched Nested Labels.

Supplies:

Delicate Dahlias

Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Mango Medley, Pale Papaya, 

Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz, Soft Suede ink

Basic White card stock

5/8" frayed ribbon

For You

I seem to lean toward shades of purple and blue when I pull out the Elegantly Said stamp set these days. For this card, I chose Gorgeous Grape and the retired Purple Posy for the ink colors and Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather for the card stock shades.

I stamped the larger images on a piece of Very Vanilla card stock in two corners and then cut the piece into three panels that I placed on the Highland Heather card stock layer. I also added some stamped images behind that layer on the card base.

There are a few Iridescent Rhinestones as accents on the sentiment layer as well.

Supplies:

Elegantly Said

Gorgeous Grape, Purple Posy ink

Very Vanilla, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather card stock

Iridescent rhinestones

Watercolor Birthday

A while ago when I was creating this card, my daughter looked at it and told me that is really different from most of the cards I put together and she is probably correct. The layout may be similar to things I have done in the past, but the stamping with shapes is not so common...she thought it was fun 😊

I used the Watercolor Shapes stamp set and Highland Heather, Pool Party and Polished Pink ink to create the pattern on the card and the sentiment layer. There is a small piece of 6" x 6" glimmer paper to add a little bling as well.

Supplies:

Watercolor Shapes

Polished Pink, Highland Heather, Pool Party ink

Very Vanilla, Highland Heather, Polished Pink card stock

6" x 6" Glimmer paper

Stitched So Sweetly dies

The Watercolor Shapes Stamp Set is the perfect companion to your favorite sentiment and image stamps! The watercolor design allows for soft backgrounds, and the sharp edges give a masked off look. Get creative with how you choose to color these stamps! Go for traditional stamping techniques or try out some ombre effects with Sponge Daubers.
