The trees were stamped at the base of the mountains in Garden Green ink. I inked the same tree image in Smoky Slate ink, stamped it off onto grid paper and stamped it upside down below the trees. I stamped it repeatedly until no ink remained.

Using the retired ¾” circle punch, I punch a circle from a Post It Note and added it above the mountains. I used a Blending Brush to add Smoky Slate ink to the sky and also around all four edges. The mask was then removed. The panel was then glued to the Basic Black layer with liquid glue and then mounted the panel onto the Garden Green card front using  Dimensionals.

A framed occasions card made for the Ink. Stamp. Share colour challenge Blog Hop using the Framed Occasions stamp set and Beautiful Shapes Dies by Stampin' Up!

Occasion Framed card for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we have a colour challenge. We were asked to create something using 3 of the following 5 colours:

 

I couldn’t pick just 3, I mean which 3 would you choose?……..so….. I used them all + Basic White to create an occasion framed card.

To recreate the occasion framed card, you will need:

Thick Basic White care base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Design A Daydream dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Polished Pink card – Smidgeon under 5” by smidgeon under 3¼”
Basic White card – 4⅞ by 3⅛”
Scrap Basic White card

 

The layer of Design A Daydream designer series paper (dsp) was glued to the Thick Basic White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

 

I stamped the hexagonal frame in Blackberry Bliss ink onto the scrap Basic White card an added the sentiment in Tahitian Tide ink. This was then die cut using the Beautiful Shapes dies.

The die was then placed on the panel of Basic White card and using a pencil, I drew lightly around the inside. This helps when positioning the stamped images.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using some on the gorgeous stand-alone dies. I have chosen to use the pretty Dots & Spots Die in an unusual way.

 

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the dots & spots card, you will need:

Parakeet Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Highland Heather card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Highland Heather strip of card – ⅜”
Scrap Vellum

 

I ran one of the panels of Basic White card through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Dots & Spots Die.

Using the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder, I ran the die cut panel back through the embossing machine to add texture. This panel was then added to the Highland Heather layer on Mini Dimensionals.

Using StaZon Black ink I stamped 2 large dragonflies from scrap Vellum and punched them out using the Dragonfly Punch. I added colour to the back of each dragonfly with Highland Heather and Parakeet Party Blends Pens.

I used the same alcohol markers to colour in some scraps of Vellum and punched out a trio of small dragonflies. These were all added to the card front with a dab of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment comes from the Sit. Stay. Relax. Stamp set. I masked off the words I didn’t want and inked up the remainder with Gorgeous Grape ink, removed the mask and stamped it onto the strip of Highland Heather. I flagged the end and added it to the card front.

Wonderful World card for the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we have a sketch challenge to work with. I love a sketch as it really pushes you out of your comfort zone and makes you look your supplies in a totally different way. I have chosen to use the Wonderful World dsp which we only have for another 2 days.

 

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the wonderful world card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Wonderful World dsp – 5” by 1” x 4
Wonderful World dsp – 4⅛” by ⅜”
Scrap Basic White

 

I chose 4 patterns of the Wonderful World dsp and cut them into 5” by 1” strips. These were added to the Thick Basic White card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
