Hydrangea Hill DSP

I decided to do as I advised and am spending this week making cards with Hydrangea Hill DSP. It’s a beautiful pack of paper. The first one is so gorgeous that a sentiment would spoil it.

I used a couple of the colors in the Hydrangea Hill DSP for this card. Seaside Spray for the mat and Highland Heather for the card base.  And that is all that is necessary. 

My brother’s college room mate visited at the weekend and his wife loves to send cards and buys them from me every now and then. He selected 2 of this card so I think I can say that this design was a success!

I’ll be showing how to make this card in detail on Sunday at my 11am EDT Facebook Live and then uploading the video to YouTube.

Dandy Garden Memories and More

This week I’m showcasing the Dandy Garden Memories and More card pack. But this time I’m not using the matching card bases – I wanted to show how good the M&M cards look on “regular” card bases.

I cut down the card to 5 by 3 3/4 inches and added a Mossy Meadow mat. Next the Mossy Meadow braided linen trim was added and tied in a bow before adding this to the Bumblebee card base.

I decided that the card could be used for many purposes and so no sentiment was added. It’s a very clean and simple card – my favourite kind.

I hope that this week I’ve shown you that the Dandy Garden Memories and More card packs are versatile and fun to use.

I’ll be making this card and 2 others later at my Facebook Live at 11am EST. Come and join me, share my live and be put in the raffle for a prize.

Oh so ombre

This week I’m using the Sale-a-bration designer series paper, Oh so ombre. It’s 48 sheets of 6 by 6 inch paper in 2 designs and 4 colors – blackberry bliss, Bermuda bay, granny apple green and rococo rose and free with an order of $50

I also used the new Sweet Ice Cream bundle. The Rococo Rose Oh so ombre paper was matted with Early Espresso and layered on a Rococo Rose card base. The sentiment from Sweet Ice Cream was stamped in Early Espresso. 

Next there was stamping and punching. The cone is Terracotta Tile stamped off for the cone and then full strength for the hatching. Then it was a matter of making the strawberry, chocolate chocolate chip and mint chocolate chop scoops of ice cream. The colors used were Rococo Rose, Early Espresso and Mint Macaron with Early Espresso stamping the chocolate chips. These were all punched out using the Ice Cream cone builder punch and adhered to the card.

I showed this card and 2 others at my Facebook Live this morning at 11am EST. Want a chance to win a prize? Share my Facebook live – and tell me so – and I’ll put you in my weekly raffle. Or if you don’t have Facebook, it’s also uploaded to YouTube, links below.

Oh so ombre

Today I’m using both sides of the Bermuda Bay Oh so Ombre DSP. This is really fun paper – and you can earn it for free!

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Oh so Ombre - Stitched so sweetly dies - Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder

The layer was embossed with the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder – I though it rather mimicked the other side of the paper with the white circles. So a strip of paper showing the other side was placed on top of the embossed layer and then were added to a Bermuda Bay card base. To finish the card, I stamped the sentiment (from Sweet Ice Cream) in Bermuda Bay and cut it out with the Switched So Sweetly dies. It was popped up on dimensionals and finished with a trio of rhinestones.

I’ll be showing this card and 2 others using the Oh so Ombre paper at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. Want a chance to win a prize? Share my Facebook live – and tell me so – and I’ll put you in my weekly raffle.

I also used the new Sweet Ice Cream stamp set as the focal point of my card.  This lollipop was made using Terracotta Tile and Blackberry Bliss along with some wink of Stella and the new gorgeous blackberry bliss ribbon. It was matted in blackberry bliss and layered onto the Oh So Ombre DSP. The sentiment also came from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and is stamped in Blackberry Bliss and cut out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies.

I’ll be using the patterned side of the Oh So Ombre paper on Friday, this time using Bermuda Bay. I’ll be showing this card and 2 others at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. Want a chance to win a prize? Share my Facebook live – and tell me so – and I’ll put you in my weekly raffle.
