This is another simple card (my favourite type) showcasing some of the stamps from the Touched my Heart stamp set. I needed a sympathy card; I’ve never liked cats mostly because they are standoffish and also because I’m allergic to them. But my sister had two cats – one was the usual supercilious type, but Sage seemed to take it as a challenge to make me lose my heart to him. I think he thought he was a dog – he was affectionate and fun loving. Sadly his dog like tendencies led to him playing on a busy road and he didn’t survive. Which is why I needed the sympathy card and the Touched my Heart set seemed perfect.

So this is silver embossing on blackberry bliss with a silver foil mat. Simple, but it gets the point across.

Here’s card number 2 using this week’s featured set, the host set, Touched my Heart. As I mentioned earlier, a host set can only be bought with host rewards that are awarded when your order (individual or as a host) is over $150.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Touched my Heart - Stitched Rectangle Dies

This is another simple card (my favourite type) showcasing some of the stamps from the Touched my Heart stamp set. I used mossy meadow, pear pizzazz, mango melody and rococo rose. I glued the layer to a mango melody card base and used the same ink to stamp the sentiment – also from the Touched my heart stamp set. The sentiment was die cut using the Rectangle Stitched dies and popped up with dimensionals.  This is an easy to card to make a lot of multiples in all sorts of color ways.

Here’s my first card of the week using this week’s featured set, the host set, Touched my Heart. What’s a host set? You can only buy it with host rewards that are awarded when your order (individual or as a host) is over $150.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Touched my Heart - Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies

This is a simple card showcasing some of the stamps from the Touched my Heart stamp set. I stamped the heart in mossy meadow and then colored it in using a pear pizzazz blend. The butterfly was stamped in mango melody and coloured with a light mango melody blend. This layer was matted on mossy meadow and then glued to a thick whisper white base. The sentiment comes from my oft reached for sentiment set, Peaceful Moments. It was die cut using (also often reached for) the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies and popped up with dimensionals. To add a bit of sparkle, I applied some clear wink of Stella to the colored in parts. It doesn’t show in the photo but it’s very obvious in real life.

Gnome for the Holidays

Leave a reply

Here’s card three using Gnome for the Holidays. It’s an adorable set and very relaxing to sit down and color. This time I included all the gnomes.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Gnome for the Holidays

I stamped all of the gnomes in memento black and then colored them using blends  – poppy parade, shaded spruce, crumb cake and mango melody. Next I added a touch of clear Wink of Stella on the decorations. The gnomes were then layered on top of  a piece of poppy parade which had been dry embossed with the Winter Snow embossing folder. This layer was adhered to a thick whisper white card base and adorned with a sentiment. It also comes from the Gnome for the Holidays set and was die cut using the Rectangular Stitched Framelits Dies. The final touch was a bow from the All the Trimmings combo ribbon pack.

This was demonstrated on my Facebook live earlier today along with 2 others cards.

Here’s card two with this week’s fun set, Gnome for the Holidays. It’s so much fun.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Gnome for the Holidays

I stamped the little house with memento black and then colored the image using blends  – poppy parade, shaded spruce, crumb cake and mango melody. Next it was placed onto a card base of  Poppy Parade. After that I stamped one of the sentiments from the Gnome for the Holidays set in Poppy Parade and popped it up using dimensionals.  It would be easy to stamp out a number of these and then colour in whilst at the doctors, dentists or even watching television. Before you’d know where you are, you’d have a load of half finished Christmas cards!

Stop back on Sunday to see another card using Gnome for the Holidays which I will then demo on my regular Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST along with the other two from this week.
