Zany Zebras

Here’s my second card using Zany Zebras (152536; $19) this week. Such a fun stamp set.

The background is the non snowflake side of the Snowflake Splendor DSP. I love using Christmas packs of DSP for other purposes! The stamping was done in Highland Heather and I added a bow in the Snowflake Splendor ribbon. It’s really more sparkly than it looks here and it has hints of highland heather in it. Finally it was mounted onto an Highland Heather card base.

I’ll be demonstrating this card, along with 2 others using Zany Zebras, at my Facebook Live at 11am EST on Sunday. Join me then.

Zany Zebras

This week I’m playing with the adorable Zany Zebras stamp set (152536; $19), an 11 piece cling stamp set.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Zany Zebras - Rectangle Stitched Dies

It’s a delightful set to use to whip up a few birthday cards which I appear to be short of. The zebras are stamped in Misty Moonlight on whisper white and then two sentiments were used to make the popped up greeting. The rectangle stitched dies were used to cut out the greeting. Finally, the whisper white layer was adhered to a Misty Moonlight card base. 

I’ll be demonstrating this card, along with 2 others using Zany Zebras, at my Facebook Live at 11am EST on Sunday. Join me then.

Touched my Heart

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.

Feels Like Frost

Here’s another two cards using the Feels Like Frost DSP and neither of them are for Christmas.  

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Feels Like Frost DSP - Peaceful Moments - Blossoms in Bloom - Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies

This is a very unusual card for me since I really don’t like grey, but here I have to admit that it works really well. I’ll tell myself that the card base is silver rather than Smoky Slate and we’ll be okay. Right? I matted the DSP with whisper white and added that to the silver coloured card base leaving a wide border of the card base showing. I like the balance. The sentiment comes from Peaceful Moments which was cut out with the Stitched Shapes framelits dies and then popped up with dimensionals.

This is the same layout as above but it has a different feel due to the colors. The previous card felt warm, this one is a bit cool. I layered the piece of DSP onto a Night of Navy mat and then onto a thick whisper white card base. Next I stamped the sentiment from Blossoms in Bloom in Night of Navy, cut it out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies and popped it up with dimensionals.

I’ll be doing my usual Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST and will demonstrate a number of cards using the Feels Like Frost DSP. I’m hoping to show you that it’s not just for Winter and Christmas.

Feels Like Frost

I’m continuing with Christmas cards because I accidentally made another one. The Feels Like Frost DSP is so beautiful, it almost make Christmas cards for you! 

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Feels Like Frost DSP - Stitched so Sweetly dies - Joyful Holly

I matted the DSP with night of navy and then mounted it on a thick whisper white card base. The sentiment comes from Joyful Holly and is stamped in night of navy. Finally it was cut out with the Stitched so Sweetly dies and popped up with dimensionals.

Next I decided to show that the Feels Like Frost DSP can also make non-Christmas cards.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Feels Like Frost DSP - Stitched so Sweetly dies - Joyful Holly - Peaceful Moments - Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies

I layered the piece of DSP onto a Highland Heather card base. Next I stamped the sentiment from Peaceful Moments in Gorgeous Grape and cut it out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies. 

I did think about adding embellishments but I don’t think this paper needs it.

I’ll be doing my usual Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST and will demonstrate a number of cards using this DSP.
