Beautiful Bunch and Chevrons

I'm loving this new Beautiful Bunch set and the coordinating Fun Flower punch!  To have a punch that can cut out my flower in seconds is such a time-saver (plus it looks better than my hand-cutting, lol!).


Today I did the Embossing Folder Stamping technique (see here) on watercolor paper using Real Red, Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy.  This made a pretty bold background so I kept the card simple.  The flower was stamped in Night of Navy onto Real Red cardstock; a second flower was stamped on Coastal Cabana cardstock and the center punched out with the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch (again, gotta love those punches!).  I shaped the petals with a bone folder then assembled the flower with Dimensionals and centered with a Large Rhinestone (retired).  Loops of Coastal Cabana Baker's Twine were adhered to the card with Mono Multi Glue then the flower was adhered  with more glue.



Three Rhinestones were colored with the Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities (love that we can do that now!) and added to the top right side.  A length of 1/4" Night of Navy ribbon (recently retired) was attached around the top two layers and over the top of the greeting.

Stamps:  Beautiful Bunch, Remembering Your Birthday
Inks:  Real Red, Night of Navy; Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities Marker
Paper:  watercolor paper; Real Red, Night of Navy, Whisper White
Accessories:  Chevron Embossing Folder, Fun Flower Punch, 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch, Corner Rounder Punch, Coastal Cabana Baker's Twine, Mono Multi Liquid Glue Basic Rhinestones, Lg. Rhinestone (retired), Navy 1/4" Stitched Ribbon (retired)

That's it for today!  Always love to hear from you!  Happy Stamping!

Beautiful Bunch and Punch! CCMC310

Hi there!  Welcome!  Today being Thursday, it's time for the Create with Connie and Mary Challenge!  This week we have a great color challenge to use Real Red, Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy!


I love this new Fun Flower Punch and the coordinating Beautiful Bunch flower set from the new catalog!  Add these colors, some Petite Petals and other fun products and this is what I came up with.  The card base is Coastal Cabana layered with Night of Navy.  Next is watercolor paper on which I have used my current favorite technique:  Embossing Folder Stamping.  I used the Lovely Lace Embossing Folder and Coastal Cabana ink to make this delicate-looking background.



Next I added half a paper doily to the left side and made the large flower by stamping two flowers and an additional flower center using Night of Navy ink on Coastal Cabana cardstock.  The flower is highlighted with a White Signo Gel Pen.  I made several smaller flowers using the Petite Petals stamp inked with Real Red then punched and arranged them around the main image and verse.


The sentiment was inked with Red and Navy Stampin' Write Markers then stamped onto Whisper White cardstock, punched out and attached with Glue Dots.  After adding Pearls to the flowers and verse, Coastal Cabana Bakers Twine was wrapped around the card and tied in a bow.

Stamps:  Beautiful Bunch, Petite Petals, Chalk Talk
Inks:  Real Red, Coastal Cabana, Night of Navy
Paper:  Coastal Cabana, Night of Navy, Whisper White cardstocks;  Watercolor Paper.
Accessories:  Fun Flower, Petite Petals, 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch and Extra-Large Oval Punches; Basic Pearls, Tea Lace Paper Doily, Coastal Cabana Baker's Twine,  Lovely Lace TIEF, Signo White Gel Pen, Sponge Dauber,

Here again is the Color Challenge from Create with Connie and Mary this week:

Bloom & Lace

Today's card showcases several new products from the new 2014-15 Stampin' Up! annual catalog:  Blended Bloom stamp, Blendabilities, the Lovely Lace Embossing Folder and the 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon in Hello Honey, a new In Color this year.


I just love this Blended Bloom colored with the Blendabilities alcohol markers!  On this flower I used both the Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight sets of Blendabilities (Blendies for short) plus a touch of Olive Green Blendies in the center. The leaves were diecut with a leaf from the Flower Fair Framelits set.


A layer of vellum cardstock embossed with the Lovely Lace embossing folder overlays the Rich Razzleberry card;  I just love the effect of dry embossing vellum because it turns opaque in the places where it is stretched!  A length of Hello Honey ribbon wraps around the card 'neath the flower and is tied with just a bit of white Baker's Twine.


The birthday greeting was punched out with the Artisan Label Punch then layered on Old Olive.  A few scattered Pearls and a light dusting of Dazzling Diamonds glitter in the flower center are the finishing touches.  It's ready to send to a special friend!

Stamps:  Blended Bloom, Label Love
Ink:  Rich Razzleberry pad.  Blendabilities Markers:  Rich Razzleberry, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.
Paper:  Cardstock Vellum;, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Whisper White cardstocks.
Accessories:  Hello Honey 3/8" Stitched Ribbon, Basic Pearls, White Baker's Twine, Lovely Lace TIEF, Big Shot, Artisan Label Punch, Two-Way Glue Pen, Flower Fair Framelit set, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Glue Dots, Snail.

 Thanks for visiting!  Happy Wednesday everyone!
