The Attention Shoppers stamp set and co-ordinating Dies from Stampin' Up! and used to CASE a card from Mikaela Titheridges' Blog

Mikaela’s CASE’d card

Today I have CASEd a card designed by my lovely team leader Mikaela Titheridge. This was one of the cards Mikaela showcased in her OnStage presentation using the adorable Attention Shoppers bundle. I have changed the colour palette and modified the design to make it my own.

 

 

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the Mikaela’s CASE’d card, you will need:

Smoky Slate card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Smoky Slate card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 4⅛” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White card and 2024 – 2026 In Color dsp

 

I embossed the 5½” by 3¾” panel of Smoky Slate card using one of the online exclusive 3D Embossing Folders. I added the embossed piece to the Smoky Slate card front using Mini Glue Dots. I wanted a little height but a double layer of Dimensionals really increases the postage in the UK.

A label was die cut from the 4⅛” by 2½” piece of Basic White card. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the label and set it aside.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped a number of the house plant images, leaves only, a couple of bouquets and a bottle in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I die cut them out using the Attention Shoppers Dies. Using the following Blends I coloured in the images – Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Old Olive & Smoky Slate.

The bouquet was stamped again onto a scrap of 2024 – 2026 In Color dsp and fussy cut the wrapping using sharp Scissors and glued it onto the die cut bouquet. I also cut apart one of the bouquets stamped on the scrap Basic White card to give me extra flowers.

The leaves, flowers, bottle and bouquet were then added under and on top of the die cut label. This decorated piece was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

A White Baker’s Twine bow and a trio of 2024 – 2026 In Color Shimmer Gems finished the card.

I hope you like my version.

Using the Painted Lavender stamp set by Stampin' Up! I made a simply flowers card for the Clean & Simple Blog Hop

Simply Flowers card – Clean & Simple Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Clean & Simple Blog Hop where we are sharing simply stamped cards. I have used the pretty Painted Lavender stamp set to make my simple card.

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the simply flowers card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Granny Apple Green card – 4⅞ by 3⅛”
Azure Afternoon card – 4¾” by 3”
Basic White card – 4⅝” by 2⅞”

I stamped the solid flower spike in 2nd generation (the ink stamped off once) Azure Afternoon ink onto the panel of Basic White card. I repeated this step to give me 3 flowers. The detailed floral image was added over top in full strength Azure Afternoon ink.
