Corner Bouquet

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing on the Sale-a-bration set, Corner Bouquet. This is a free with a $50 order set. 

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Corner Bouquet - Sweet Ice Cream

As the background I decided to use the fourth – and so far unused – color from the Oh So Ombre DSP, Granny Apple Green. I simply stamped the image from Corner Bouquet in Granny Apple Green and then the sentiment from Sweet Ice Cream. This was then placed on a Granny Apple Green card base. Super simple and uses minimal product.

Let me know what you think.

A Touch of ink

Leave a reply

This week I’m giving you a sneak peek of a product that you’ll be able to earn for free starting next Monday – A Touch of ink. It’s a 17 piece photopolymer 2 step stamp set and an order of $100 is enough for you to earn it.

The stem and outline were stamped in Mossy Meadow and then the watercolor look fill in stamp was stamped in Merry Merlot. It doesn’t match the outline perfectly, it’s a more arty kind of impression. The image was then matted with Merry Merlot card stock.

Although the photo looks to be a different color layer to the card base, they are actually both Very Vanilla. Before glueing the layer onto the card base, the sentiment, also from A Touch of Ink, was stamped just in case!

Celebrate Sunflowers bundle

Leave a reply

This week I’m completely confused about what day it is and forgot to post this on Sunday as I had planned. I can’t really understand that because I remembered to do my Facebook Live on the right day! I used both parts of the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle for this card.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Celebrate Sunflowers - Sunflowers Dies - Stitched Rectangle Dies

The dies that were used for this card may have been overlooked since they don’t cut out any stamped images. So I decided to make them the focus of my card. The colors used for the greenery were Just Jade and Shaded Spruce and they were layered onto a very vanilla layer which was then matted with Shaded Spruce. 

After wrapping the Just Jade ribbon around the layer, it was adhered to a Just Jade card base. The sentiment, also from Celebrate Sunflowers, was stamped in Just Jade and then cut out with the Stitched Rectangle dies. The final touch were the little ladybug embellishments which are a sneak peek from the upcoming catalog that will be live on January 4th.

I demonstrated this card and 2 others on Sunday at 11am on my regular Facebook Live. You can catch a replay or check it out on YouTube. Links below.

Field Journal – the drake

Leave a reply

Here’s another example of a card using the cling stamp set Field Journal (152609, $22).

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Field Journal - Rectangle Stitched Dies

The line drawing was stamped in Smoky Slate stamped off once first. Next the image was coloured using watercolor pencils with a blender pen to smooth out the pencil lines. The colours that were used were daffodil delight, pumpkin pie, pacific point, garden green, basic black and early espresso. Can’t see the garden green? That’s because his head was colored using both pacific point and garden green to get the right shade. The image was cut out using the Rectangle Stitched dies and popped up with dimensionals. The sentiment is from the Field Journal stamp set and is stamped in early espresso.

I demonstrated the three cards that I made with this stamp set this morning on my Facebook live. If you missed it, you can see the replay or check it out on YouTube – links are below.

Field Journal

Here are a few more examples using the cling stamp set Field Journal (152609, $22).

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Field Journal - Stitched Shapes Framelits dies

The line drawing was stamped in Smoky Slate stamped off once first. The image was coloured using watercolor pencils with a blender pen to smooth out the pencil lines. Colours used were rich razzleberry, old olive and early espresso. The image was cut out down and then an old olive mat was added which was glued to a very vanilla card base. The first card had the sentiment from the Field Journal set stamped in old olive. Then I had a need for a sympathy card.  I made an almost copy and used a sentiment from Peaceful Moments (such a great set) which was die cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits die and then popped up with dimensionals.

I’ll be demonstrating these cards along with 2 others at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST.
