Honey Bear card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Tuesday Technique Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using partial die cutting. I have used the adorable Fluffiest Friends stamp set and Dies to make my card.

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the honey bear card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Thoughtful Journey dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Scrap Mossy Meadow card

 

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I glued the panel of Thoughtful Journey dsp to the front of the Thick Basic White card front.

The adorable bear was stamped onto the 5⅛” by 3⅜” piece of Basic White card using Early Espresso ink. I placed the die over the image holding it in place with a little washi tape from my stash to prevent it moving.

I placed the top cutting plate from my Cut & Emboss Machine at the top of the image, level and about half-way down the honey jar and ran it through the Cut & Emboss Machine. Doing it this way only cuts the top half of the image.

slid a circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies behind the die cut part of the image and die cut it.

The bear was coloured using the following Blends Pens – Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Pretty Peacock and Wild Wheat. The coloured panel was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

From scrap Mossy Meadow card I die cut some grass and leaves and added them to the card front.

The sentiment, from the Simply Said stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Mossy Meadow card, covered it with White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front and a trio of 2023 – 2025 In Color Dots completed the card.

Partial Die Cut Bird card for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects featuring partial die-cutting techniques. I have chosen to use the Aspen dies and the Perched In A Tree stamp set to make a get well card.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the partial die cut bird card, you will need:

Lemon Lime Twist card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Stargazing dsp – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾

The bird from the Perched In A Tree stamp set was stamped in Pebbled Path ink onto the 5” by 3½” panel of Basic White card. I placed the bird die in position and used a bit of washi tape to secure it in position. In the Cut and Emboss Machine I placed the top C plate in position covering only the top of the bird and stopping at the feet. I ran it through and then cut off the excess card either side of the bird with my trimmer.

I added the branch from the Sweet Songbird stamp set in 2nd generation Pecan Pie ink and added leaves in Granny Apple Green ink. At this point I decided I would cut down the image using the largest of the stitched circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I used a Blending Brush to add a little Boho Blue ink to the semicircle which helps to ground the piece.

A very bright and cheerful card. I hope you like it.

Partially Die Cut Blessings of Home for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects showcasing die-cutting. I have chosen to share a partially die cut card featuring the Blessings of Home stamp set.

 

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the blessings of home card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Abigail Rose dsp – 5⅝” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Gold Glimmer card – 5⅜” by approx. 1⅞”
Gold Glimmer card – 5⅝” by ⅜”
Basic Black strip ¼” wide

 

I began by gluing the Abigail Rose designer series paper (dsp) to the Thick Basic White card front – I had to add a strip of Gold Glimmer to the right side as I had managed to cut the dsp slightly to short.

I placed the co-ordinating die form the Flowers of Home set of dies was then placed over the stamped image and secured in place with a little washi tape. I then placed the top cutting plate half way across right-hand side of the stamped image and ran it through the Cut and Emboss Machine, die-cutting only the right side. Using Paper snips, I cut from the top and bottom of the panel until I reached the edge of the die-cut area and dropped the excess in the bin.

The whole piece was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Petal Pink Blends Pens were used to add a little colour to the largest flower. I blurred the edge of the coloured area with a Color Lifter.

A gorgeou,s soft floral card made using the Bloom & Grow stamp set and the ghost stamping technique

Bloom & Grow and the ghost stamping technique

Today I am sharing a card made using the new Bloom and Grow stamp set and co-ordinating Budding Blooms dies. I saw a video by TheStampDoc –  where she used this set with a technique called ‘ghost stamping’ and I thought I would give it a try.

To recreate the Bloom & Grow card you will need;

Melon Mambo card base
Gray Granite 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2
Scrap Whisper White for the sentiment

I stamped the floral image onto the Gray Granite cardstock panel in Versamark ink and covered it with White Embossing Powder…….and yes, I did use my embossing buddy first. I heat set the powder with my Heat Tool and set it aside to cool.

Using the Budding Blooms dies I cut only the top half of the image by careful positioning of the cutting plates of my die cutting machine.

I added a couple of drops of Whisper White reinker to an acrylic bloc and added a drop of water with my Aqua Painter. I coloured in the whole image using the White ink and set it aside to dry.

I cleaned the ink off the acrylic block and added a drop of each of the following reinkers; Gorgeous Grape, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Melon Mambo. I used my Aqua Painter to colour in the flowers and leaves.

I added the Gray Granite panel to the Whisper White layer and trimmed the excess cardstock away. The Gorgeous Grape Striped Ribbon was then wrapped around the panel and adhered with Sellotape on the back. The panel was then added to the Melon Mambo card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment in Melon Mambo ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and die cut it using the Rectangle Stitched dies. I ran it through twice to make a smaller label. This was added to the card front with Dimensionals. I added a bow in the same ribbon.

Thank you to the StampDoc for the inspiration, I really love this technique, it looks so pretty. I hope you like it.
