A pretty wedding card made using the Arrange a Wreath stamp set and Wreath dies by Stampin' Up!

Wedding Card

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a sweet wedding card made for my daughter and her new husband following their marriage yesterday. Like many other couples this year their wedding was postponed due to coronavirus – then at the beginning of July the Church of England announced that simple socially distanced weddings could take place if the church had already been booked – so we were on again….. so exciting.

Camilla and Dom had 10 guest at the wedding instead of the 100 originally planned, no choir or singing, no bridesmaids, best man and no reception as large get togethers are still forbidden. Basically they could have the legal part of the marriage performed. Camilla chose not to wear her wedding dress, she is going to wear it when the have a church blessing followed by the reception in 2 years time.

The colour scheme for the card was inspired by Camilla’s white wedding dress with a little silver beading and the dresses for her 2 bridesmaids which are in a deep purple.

To recreate the wedding card you will need:

Gorgeous Grape card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded upper left corner x 2
Gorgeous Grape 4” by 4”
Silver Foil – 4” by 4”
Highland Heather – 4” by 4”
Scrap Whisper White and Gorgeous Grape

I stamped the sentiment from the Arrange a Wreath stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink onto one of the Whisper White panels . The panel was then embossed using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder and adhered to the Gorgeous Grape card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the more detailed of the Wreath Dies I cut a wreath form the Gorgeous Grape square and the Silver Foil square. These were adhered together with the same liquid glue.

Split Image Blossom card

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a couple of split image blossom cards made using the fabulous Blossoms in Bloom stamp set and Many Layered Blossom dies. Over the past couple of moths I have seen a number of demonstrators making split image cards and thought I would try it myself.

To recreate the Split Image Blossom card you will need:

Merry Merlot card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Calypso Coral – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside
Calypso Coral – 5½” by 5½” – to die cut for both cards

2nd card

Calypso Coral – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Merry Merlot – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside

I laid 2 of the Whisper White panels side by side, inked up the large floral image from the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set with Merry Merlot ink and stamped the image across the join of both panels.

The most detailed large floral image was die cut using the Many Layered Blooms dies.

I squeezed some Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive onto the corner of my Silicon Mat and dabbed it all over the back of the die cut piece and placed it over the stamped area which were still side by side.

When the adhesive was dry I used my Paper Trimmer to cut the 2 layers apart.

The stamped and die cut panels were added to either a Calypso Coral or a Merry Merlot layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then to the opposite colour card base.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped on both card fronts in Merry Merlot ink and the cards were completed with a trio of Holiday Rhinestones.

A pretty, lipstick and flowers card made using the Dressed to Impress stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Lipstick and Flowers

Posted on by

This is a sweet lipstick and flowers birthday card made using the Dressed to Impress Stamp set and All Dressed Up dies.

To recreate the lipstick and flowers card you will need:

Flirty Flamingo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Early Espresso – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner – for the inside
Early Espresso – 3” by 3”
Whisper White – 3” by 3”
Scrap Whisper White

Using Flirty Flamingo ink I stamped the single and double flowers randomly over the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Whisper White. The panel was then glued to the Early Espresso layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped a strip of Whisper White Crinkle Ribbon around the panel and secured it to the back of the panel with Sellotape. The panel was then added to the Flirty Flamingo card base with the same liquid glue.

The lipstick was stamped on scrap Whisper White card in Early Espresso ink and cut out using the All Dressed Up dies. The image was then coloured using Flirty Flamingo combo and Gray Granite combo Blends Markers.

From the square of Whisper White card I die cut a stitched circle using the Stitched Shapes dies. The Early Espresso scalloped circle was cut using the Layering Circle dies. The two circles were glued together with the liquid adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set onto the Whisper White circle in Flirty Flamingo ink. I added a sprinkling of dots in 2nd generation Early Espresso ink before the Lipstick was added with liquid glue.

I trimmed off a little from the left side of the circle and added it to the card front on Dimensionals. I used the dark Flirty Flamingo Blends Marker to colour in a trio of Basic Pearls before adding them to the card front.

I hope you like the card,
