Love of Leaves bundle

I’m continuing to use the Stitched Leaves dies part of the Love of Leaves bundle along with Evening Evergreen, one of the new in colors.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Love of Leaves - Stitched Leaves dies

I am really excited about Evening Evergreen; it’s such a rich green. It’s helping me get over the retirement of Pretty Peacock.

First I die cut one of the leaves in Evening Evergreen using the Stitched Leaves dies which, as suggested by the name, provides a stitched border. This was matted on Very Vanilla and then the sentiment from Love of Leaves was stamped in Evening Evergreen. Normally I would do the sentiment stamping before constructing the card, but here I needed to be sure about placement. Finally, this was adhered to an Evening Evergreen card base.

Join me on Facebook at 11am EDT today when I’ll be holding a mini class to show how to make this week’s cards.

Love of Leaves bundle

I’ve used the Love of Leaves stamp set before, but I didn’t really explore the dies – this week I intend to remedy that.

I used the embossing die on a piece of the new incolor Pale Papaya and then cut it out using the Stitched Leaves dies. Then I sponged some So Saffron and Mango Melody onto the leaf followed by Wink of Stella. This was layered onto a piece of Very Vanilla which was matted with Pale Papaya

The sentiment, from Love of Leaves, is stamped on Very Vanilla and cut out with the Stitched so sweetly dies. It was popped up with dimensionals and a Pale Papaya bow was added. The finishing touch were some in-color jewels again in Pale Papaya.

Vine Design Bundle

This week I’m using the Vine Design bundle (156266, $55.75) from the January to June mini catalog and I chose to share 4 of the 5 incolors with you as well. They are gorgeous!

Here the vine is stamped in Evening Evergreen on Very Vanilla. It’s a very deep luscious color. Then I stamped out the little flowers, stamped in Polished Pink, Fresh Freesia and Pale Papaya and die cut them using the Flowering Vine dies.

These dies are amazing – there are three identical dies to cut out these flowers which made it very easy. I popped them up with mini dimensionals. Next the very vanilla layer was matted in Evening Evergreen. The sentiment from the Vine Design set was stamped in Evening Evergreen and then the matted layer was added to the Very Vanilla card base. The finishing touch was the addition of the pearls basic jewels in the middle of the flowers.

Today’s Tiles

This week I’m featuring the Today’s Tiles photopolymer 8 piece stamp set (152528, $21). It makes truly beautiful cards.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Today's Tiles - Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies

It’s a 2 step stamp and the easiest way to do this one is to use the  stamparatus since I’d already had it lined up for the earlier cards.  The image was stamped in Gorgeous Grape and Misty Moonlight and then the squares were cut out. I arranged them on a Whisper White layer and then adhered that to a Gorgeous Grape card base. The greeting comes from the Today’s Tiles set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape and die cut using the Stitched Stamps Framelits dies. Next it was popped up with Stampin’ dimensionals and adorned with a bow in the Snowflake Splendor ribbon.

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