Stampin' Up Just For You Card

Hi Everybody,

I am loving the large stamps and dies lately like I'm sure you are too.  I ran across a Stampin' Up set called Botanicals For You and just had to use the huge stamp, Just For You. This would be great on a tag as well.

The recipient of the card likes blues and greens but as I was putting the card together, I saw that coral piece of patterned paper on my desk and thought it would look good with a little pop of that color,  I sponged with Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass and Hero Arts Mint Julep.  I embossed the Just For You stamp with Stampendous Fine Detail Gold Embossing Powder.  I used Gina K Designs Turquoise Sea Cardstock and a Gina Marie Designs Banner Stitched Die on the inside.  The inside sentiment also is a part of the Stampin' Up Botanicals For You stamp set.  The rectangle stitched die on the front of the card is from Lawn Fawn and I am in love with these clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Hello Card - Two Altenew Stamp Sets Used

Hi Everybody,

I just wanted to share a quick card that I made for someone going through a rough spell.  I hope this made her smile.  I forget about coloring my stamps with Memento Markers and stamping so that's what I did here.  You can also color your stamp with the markers and then spritz with water and stamp if you want more of a watercolor look.  

I used a hello die and sponged part of it with the same color Memento Ink as the marker I used.  Next I stamped Versamark over the hello and sprinkled sparkly embossing powder on it and heat set.  I cut out on top of fun foam and using Stick It.  

Supplies Used:

• Gina K Designs White 120# Cardstock, the purple is hers as well and I'm so sorry but she doesn't sell it currently.  It was a limited edition color a couple years ago I believe. 
• Altenew Stamps on front, Botanical Garden
• Altenew Stamps for inside, Wishing You 
• Memento Markers, Lilac Posies and Bambo Leaves
• Memento Lilac Posies Ink
• Hello Die, Lawn Fawn
• Envelope Liner Die, Papertrey Ink
• Judikins Sparkly Embossing Powder
• Versamark Ink
• Fun Foam
• Clear Sequins, Pretty Pink Posh
• Scor-Tape

If you need a quick card, pull out those Memento Markers and color your stamps.  I hope I inspired you today.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Altenew Layered Lily

Hi Everybody!

I've been making cards but not blogging them in the last few days, oops.  I've had some kind of sinus crud stuff going on and yesterday I got my first sinus cocktail shot!  I feel so much better today.  This must be a Southern thing because when I lived in St. Louis and asked for one, they looked at me like I was cray cray lol.

I made this card for a friend to tell her how awesome and talented she is and I know she loves Altenew Stamps so I used the Layered Lily set.  I love this set because it is so quick but so impressive like you spent a lot of time on it.  I did actually spend a lot of time in the beginning going through my inks and figuring out color combos.  If anyone is interested in what I came up with I'll be glad to share.

I meant to stamp a lily inside the card.  My hands were faster than my brain and I adhered the layer before I realized it.  I wanted it stamped off the side.  

I will list the colors I used below.  If you haven't already tried layered stamps, I highly recommend them and this set was fairly inexpensive at $15.00.  Here is a link to Altenew Layered Lily Stamp Set


Supplies Used:

• Gina K Designs Cardstocks, white 120# for base, Passionate Pink, Bubblegum Pink, and Dusty Rose
• Altenew Layered Lily Stamp Set on front of card
• Stampin' Up sentiment on inside from a set called, Botanicals for You
• From Light to Dark Inks Used:  Memento Angel Pink, Gina K Designs Bubblegum Pink, Memento Rose Bud, and Tim Holtz Picked Raspberry
• Clear Sequins, Pretty Pink Posh
• Tombo Mono Adhesive
• Ranger Multi Media Matte 

I hope you liked this card and will try some layered stamps soon! 

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
