Boughs & Blossoms Bundle

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing on the Boughs & Blossoms bundle. The bundle consists of a stamp set and a punch (157712, $34). This card focused mostly on the punch.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Boughs & Blossoms bundle - Stitched Rectangle Dies

First I punched out the shapes in Polished Pink and Evening Evergreen. Next I drew around the sentiment strip with pencil. In the almost copy of this card that I did on Sunday, I used the Stitched Rectangle dies and drew around the inside of the die.

With the pencil lines showing where the end of the sprigs had to be, the sprigs were attached using multipurpose glue. The advantage of drawing around the inside of the die was that the line didn’t need to be erased unlike on the card above.

The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink and was attached with dimensionals. A few basic rhinestones were scattered around after being coloured using a dark Polished Blend pen.

I made this card, along with 2 others using this bundle, yesterday at 11am EST on Facebook. It was also be copied to YouTube. When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the card precut for you to make the 3 cards.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Boughs & Blossoms bundle - Pattern Party DSP

The DSP is from the Pattern Party DSP; you can buy this massive 48 piece of 12 by 12 inch paper with $18 of host rewards. One side of the DSP is in many colours and the reverse sides are all black and white. I do like to have black and white with a pop of colour, don’t you?

A piece of the DSP was matted in Polished Pink and then attached to a Whisper White card base. The flower was stamped in Polished Pink with the sentiment in tuxedo black. This was matted in Basic Black and attached to the card with dimensionals.

I’ll be making this card, along with 2 others using this bundle, on Sunday at 11am EST on Facebook. It will also be copied to YouTube. When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the card precut for you to make the 3 cards.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Boughs & Blossoms bundle - Stitched Rectangle Dies

Ink pads used on this card are Polished Pink, Pacific Point and Evening Evergreen. I stamped starting at the bottom of the Whisper White layer and changed colors as I went upwards. This ensured that I was leaving enough space for the next stamp rather than ending up with overlapped images.

Once I had finished stamped the background it was added to a Polished Oink card base. Next the sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink and then cut out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies. The sentiment was added with dimensionals. The final touch was some iridescent rhinestones basic jewels.

I’ll be making this card, along with 2 others using this bundle, on Sunday at 11am EST on Facebook. It will also be copied to YouTube. When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the card precut for you to make the 3 cards.

Driving By

Leave a reply

This stamp set, Driving By, is another freebie from Sale-a-bration with a $50 order. I’m also using the Simply Marbleous DSP after a challenge in my live to use the grey pattern since they know that I don’t like grey. Too many years of grey school uniforms even though it was quite a long time ago!

The grey Simply Marbleous DSP was matted with Basic Grey and mounted on a Poppy Parade card base. The car was stamped in Smoky Slate on whisper white and colored using watercolor pencils. They are all from the first set of watercolor pencils; basic black, basic grey, real red and daffodil delight. I also added some clear Wink of Stella to the balloons and the red part of the car.

The sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade, matted in Poppy Parade and popped up with dimensionals.

I’ll be demonstrating this card, along with 2 others, at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST.

Expressions in ink DSP

Leave a reply

This week’s product of the week is the stunning Expressions in ink DSP. The only use of the matching stamp set Artistically Inked on this week’s cards is for the sentiments. I wanted to really focus on the DSP this week and will create with the rest of the suite later on.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Expressions in ink DSP - Artistically Inked

This is another very clean and simple card. A piece of the Expressions in ink DSP was cut to the length of the card and then matted with gold foil on each side. The sentiment from the coordinating Artistically Ink set was stamped in Polished Pink onto a Whisper White card base.  All that was left then was to attach the matted DSP to the card base. Finally a few of the in color jewels were added.

Join me on Sunday at 11am EDT at my Facebook Live to watch how I made this and two other cards. Share my live and get added to a raffle for a small prize.
