Sentimental Swirls

Leave a reply

Last week I focused on the Sentimental Swirls stamp set. This is a set in the January to June catalog and isn’t in the upcoming annual so you need to get it soon. Somehow I forgot to post the third card in the trio and have only just realised it. So here we go!

The adorable bird really needs to have its own card so here it is.

The bird was stamped in Real Red on a piece of white and trimmed until it looked “right”. It was then matted in a piece of Real Red 1/8 inch larger. Using the matted piece, I decided where to position the sentiment and stamped in Real Red. Finally the matted piece was attached to a white card base using dimensionals.

I made this card along with two others using this set on Sunday at my Facebook Live at 11am Eastern. Check out the video on Facebook or YouTube showing the 3 card mini class. When you place an order with me for $25 product or more, I’ll send you the card pieces that you need to make the cards. Also when you share my live, I’ll add you to the following week’s raffle.

Heart & Home Memories & More

Here’s my third card using the Heart & Home Memories & More card pack. It’s another quick and easy card.

This was one of the large 6 inch wide card from the Heart & Home Memories & More card pack. I cropped it to a pleasing size and then matted it in Garden Green and then put it on a Whisper White card base. Finally one of the stickers was added for the sentiment.

I made this quick and easy card along with two others on my Facebook Live earlier today at 11am EST. It was probably my shortest video ever since these cards make card construction really simple.

Heart & Home Memories & More

Here’s my second card using the Heart & Home Memories & More card pack. It’s another quick and easy card.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Heart & Home Memories & More card pack - Flowing Flowers - Layering Circles Framelits dies

I cut the  DSP in half even though there was a small sized piece of almost the same pattern. The reason for this was the small piece had the same pattern but reduced in size and I wanted it to be bolder. It also means that there’s a piece of DSP just begging to be made into another thank you card.

The DSP was matted with Night of Navy and added to a Whisper White card base. Finally the sentiment from Flowing Flowers was stamped in Night of Navy. Sometimes it’s handy to be slow putting things away – the Flowing Flowers set was still on my desk. It was die cut using the Layering Circles Framelits dies and matted with a night of navy scalloped circle.

I’ll be making this quick and easy card along with two others on my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST.

Driving By

This stamp set, Driving By, is another freebie from Sale-a-bration with a $50 order.  This should have been published almost a week ago but I got sick and had zero energy. So here’s what I missed posting.

I stamped the van stamp all over the whisper white layer using Smoky Slate. This was then added to a Rich Razzleberry card base.

Next I used the Rich Razzleberry water color pencil (from the first pack of pencils) to color in one of the vans. The pencil lines were smoothed out using a Wink of Stella. Basic Black was used for the tyres and smoothed with a blender pen.

Finally the sentiment, also from Driving By was stamped in Rich Razzleberry and matted in a piece of the same. I cut this to size using my trimmer since I couldn’t find a die that would work.

I demonstrated this card, along with 2 others, at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. I also copied it to YouTube.

This stamp set, Driving By, is another freebie from Sale-a-bration with a $50 order. It’s also featuring another $50 Sale-a-bration freebie, the Simply Marbleous DSP. This should have been published almost a week ago but I got sick and had zero energy. So here’s what I missed posting.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Driving By - Simply Marbleous DSP

I used the Highland Heather Simply Marbleous DSP to put a background onto the Highland Heather card base. Next the car stamp was colored using Stampin’ Write markers – Basic Black, Mint Macaron and Highland Heather. I breathed heavily on the stamp and the pressed it down onto a piece of Whisper White and voila a multicolored impression.

Finally the sentiment, also from Driving By was stamped in Memento Black and the 2021-2023 in color jewels were sprinkled around.

I demonstrated this card, along with 2 others, at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EST. I also copied it to YouTube.
