Evergreen Elegance

Leave a reply

This week I made a start on my Christmas cards with the Evergreen Elegance bundle (155579, $40.50) which consists of  the  Evergreen Elegance stamp set and the Evergreen Border punch. Today I’m just using the stamp set.

I started with the sentiment in Evening Evergreen (what else?!) which I trimmed down to the right size and then added a mat. Positioning that where I wanted it on the Whisper White layer, I was able to stamp the greenery peeking out from underneath. This layer was also matted with Evening Evergreen and the glued to a Whisper White card base.

The sentiment was popped up with dimensionals and a few rhinestone basic jewels were colored with a red blends and added to the card.

I’ll be showing this card at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am along with a couple of others. If you’re not on Facebook, you can also see the video on YouTube. I’d be really grateful if you shared my live or subscribed to my YouTube channel.

Poinsettia Petals Bundle

Leave a reply

Here’s the third card using the Poinsettia Petals bundle that I’ll be showcasing this week on my Facebook Live at 11am EST today. For this card, I pulled out the dies. I still haven’t even touched the matching DSP – I may have to make the DSP a product of the week!

It’s possible to emboss and cut out each petal in one go which is really exciting. First a little folding to get the leaves to look really 3D and then build the flower with glue dots. Once that is done, the sentiment can be placed and finally pop up the poinsettia with dimensionals. This is then placed onto a poppy parade card base and the beautiful beaded pearls add the finishing touch.

Poinsettia Petals

Leave a reply

Here’s my second card with this week’s product, the Poinsettia Petals bundle, although this card only uses the stamp set.

This is another simple – and hopefully elegant – card.  The plants are stamped in Old Olive and then filled in using the second stamp in Poppy Parade. To give them sparkle, clear Wink of Stella was added to the berries. This layer was added to a Poppy Parade card base. The sentiment, which comes from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set, was stamped in Poppy Parade, die cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies and popped up with dimensionals. A bow from the All the Trimmings combo ribbon set finished it off.

I’ll be demoing this card and a couple of others using the Poinsettia Petals bundle on my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. Come and join me.

Poinsettia Petals Bundle

This week I pulled out the Poinsettia Petals bundle and what a beauty it is. There are 18 photopolymer stamps and 18 dies included in this bundle.

Here we have the usual issue of photographing silver embossing. It’s a simple card – two stamps heat embossed in silver on a whisper white layer then adhered to a thick whisper white card base. The beaded pearls coordinate beautifully.

I’ll be demoing this card and a couple of others on my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. Come and join me.

Collection of trees from Most Wonderful Time Product Medley

Leave a reply

As you know, this week I’m focusing on the marvellous Most Wonderful Time Product Medley (150705, $70) which gives you loads of things to play with. See the list of the contents on Wednesday’s post below. After I made the cute little tree I showed you on Friday, I got a little carried away and made a quartet of DSP trees.

Demonstrator - Most Wonderful Time Product Medley - Stitched Triangles Dies - Tree AngleLiz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Most Wonderful Time Product Medley - Stitched Triangles Dies - Tree Angle

This used a larger stitched triangle die to cut out the trees. Again the tree trunk is from the Tree Angle stamp set, stamped in soft suede. For the coloured card bases, I stamped it on whisper white and cut it out. The sentiments were all from the medley and embossed in gold. Finally I added the gold faceted stars which were included in the kit and ribbon.

Similarly to Friday’s card, you can make these quite rapidly.

I’ll be demonstrating some cards made with this product medley on my Facebook live on Sunday at 11am EST.
