Silhouetted Meadow for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where our theme is Annual Catalogue pre-order. I have chosen to use the gorgeous Meadow Dies to make a pretty silhouetted meadow birthday card.

Colours used to make this project are:

To recreate the Silhouetted Meadow card, you will need:

Polished Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4 – Rounded upper left corner
Basic Black – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – Rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – Rounded upper left corner x 2 – one for the inside
Scrap Basic Black

 I took one of the Basic White panels and added ink using a Blending Brushes. I began in the centre with Pale Papaya ink. I start by inking up the brush, then tapping off the excess before adding the ink to the panel in circular movements.

These were randomly adhered with repositionable glue to the strip of Basic White card. I scribbled Purple Posy ink onto a D Block and used a Blending Brush to pick up the ink and blend the ink onto the panel over the butterflies. The butterflies were then removed. I love the soft effect this gives.

I die cut the scalloped border from the Be Mine Dies, cut from the 2 strips of Highland Heather card. These were then adhered to the inked panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I used some of the Snail Mail Twine to wrap around the panel and tied a bow. The panel was added to the Pool Party card base using Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the Pool Party card base.

A masculine seaside themed card featuring a lighthouse and a blended background.

Masculine Lighthouse themed card

Today I am sharing a masculine lighthouse themed birthday card made for my son’s birthday.

He has recently bought a house in a small fishing village on the northeast coast of Scotland, where incidentally a branch of my Mothers and a branch of my Fathers families lived from the at least the 1690’s. In fact, the house he has bought was owned by my 3 great aunts the last of whom died there in the mid 1990’s. Yes, family history is one of my passions……. My son loves the sea and as the house is about 50 feet from the harbour, he is a s happy as the proverbial pig. So….. his card had to be seaside themed. I got the idea for this card from a fellow demonstrator Priscilla – I adapted her design and made it my own.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the masculine Lighthouse card, you will need:

Balmy Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Misty Moonlight – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Pacific Point – 5½” by 3¾”
So Saffron – 5½” by 3¾”
Balmy Blue – 5½” by 3¾”
Misty Moonlight – 5½” by 3¾”
Misty Moonlight – 3¾” by 2⅝”
Basic White – 3¾” by 2⅝”

I took the four panels of card stock measuring 5½” by 3¾” and cut them into thin strips, wider at one end than the other. Taking the strips, I added them to one of the larger Basic White panels using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive leaving a small strip of white visible between the strips. I trimmed off any excess when the whole panel was covered.

The striped panel was then added to the Misty Moonlight layer with the same liquid glue and then to the Balmy Blue card base.

Using the lovely new Blending Brushes, I added Balmy Blue ink to the top and bottom of the small Basic White panel. I added So Saffron ink to the middle of the panel.  I stamped the ‘sea’ image in Balmy Blue ink at the bottom of the panel and birds in Basic Gray at the top of the panel. Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and my Mini Cut & Emboss Machine I cut a scalloped rectangle from the inked panel. This was glued to the small panel of Misty Moonlight and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the image of the lighthouse onto scrap Basic White card. I wanted the image to be quite dark and the Stamparatus gave me the ability to stamp multiple times to get the depth of colour I wanted.

I cut the lighthouse out using the Smooth Sailing Dies. I added light to the windows using So Saffron Blends Marker and used a Blender Pen to soften the colour of the lighthouse.
