Simply Fabulous

This week I’m using Simply Fabulous, a 24 piece photopolymer set (159133, $18). Plenty of variety here!

I grabbed all of the plant looking stamps and stamped them along the base of a piece of Evening Evergreen. After stamping in versamark, I sprinkled silver embossing powder and then heated. Next I did the same with the sentiment, also from Simply Fabulous.

The Evening Evergreen layer was matted with silver foil and then put on an Evening Evergreen card base. Finally some Basic Rhinestone jewels were added.

I’ll be making this card and two others this morning at my Facebook Live at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to the weekly raffle.

Simply Fabulous

This week I’m using Simply Fabulous, a 24 piece photopolymer set (159133, $18). It really is fabulous – I’ve been really enjoying creating with this set. There’s so much to use. I kept the color palette as the last card but added Orchid Oasis and used another 4 stamps.

I love stamping up the side of a card so as to leave plenty of white space to keep it clean and simple. 

Here I used Parakeet Party for the two plant stamps, Sweet Sorbet for the flowers and Orchid Oasis for the little blossoms. Wink of Stella was applied to the little Orchid Oasis blossoms.

The sentiment was stamped in Orchid Oasis and then cut out using the Stitched Rectangle dies. The sentiment fits perfectly in the smallest rectangle die. It was then added to the card using dimensionals.

As a final touch, an iridescent basic rhinestone jewel was added to the centre of the flowers.

I’ll be making this card and two others also using Simply Fabulous on Sunday at my Facebook Live at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to the weekly raffle.

Simply Fabulous

This week I’m using Simply Fabulous, a 24 piece photopolymer set (159133, $18). Today I managed to use 4 of the 24 stamps – a flower, leaves and two sentiments.

The leaf stamp was stamped in Parakeet Party and then the flower was added in Sweet Sorbet. This was matted in Sweet Sorbet.

The sentiment was stamped in Sweet Sorbet and then the image was added using dimensionals.

Finally the flower was brushed with Wink of Stella and an iridescent basic rhinestone jewel was added to the centre of the flower.

I’ll be making this card and two others on Sunday at my Facebook Live at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to the weekly raffle.

Texture Chic Specialty DSP

The week I’m focusing on the Texture Chic Specialty DSP with a bit of help from the new set Charming Sentiments. This is a specialty DSP which means  that there is gold foil on one side of all the sheets. But here I’m using one of the sheets without gold foil.

This is a 2 inch wide strip of the Texture Chic specialty DSP matted onto a strip of Mango Melody. The matted DSP was attached to a white card base.

Next the sentiment was stamped in Mango Melody and die cut with the Layering Circles dies. A mat of Mango Melody was cut using the same die set and attached to the sentiment circle. This was then added to the card with dimensionals.

Finally some basic rhinestones were colored using the dark Mango Melody blend and added to the card.

I made this card plus 2 more using this DSP at my Facebook Live this morning at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to my raffle. I also upload the video to YouTube in case you prefer that medium.

Texture Chic Specialty DSP

The week I’m focusing on the Texture Chic Specialty DSP with a bit of help from the new set Charming Sentiments. This is a specialty DSP which means  that there is gold foil on one side of all the sheets.

This card is also using a Pool Party card base which is not a color that I use often. I think I should use it more after the last couple of cards that I’ve made.

This is a layout that I’ve used before, although as a horizontal card which means you need a vertical greeting. Alternatively I suppose you could have a die cut over the DSP but I’m trying not to hide any of it!

The DSP is layered onto gold foil that is 1/4 inch longer than the DSP for a wider than usual border. Finally the greeting from Charming Sentiments was stamped in Pool Party.

I’ll be showing this card plus 2 more using this DSP at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to my raffle. I also upload the video to YouTube in case you prefer that medium.
