Here’s the third card this week using the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set. I’ll be doing a Facebook Live today, Sunday at 11am EST as usual to demonstrate the three cards.

Here I used Pacific Point for my cardstock and heat embossed the stamps in silver, including the sentiment. I added a silver foil mat and left a large border of the pacific point. To create the banner, I used the triple banner punch and then popped it up with dimensionals.

If you place an retail order with me of over $25, using the host code, I’ll send you 5 handmade cards, possibly including one made with Queen Anne’s Lace.

Rooted in Nature

Leave a reply

The product that I’m playing with this week is the Rooted in Nature stamp set and matching dies. The Nature’s Roots Framelits Dies are on the last chance list BUT they aren’t retiring, they are being reconfigured with a new item number and name. But they are reduced in price so it is a good time to snap them up.

I’m also showcasing one of the new 2020-2022 in colors – Just Jade. I’ve used a piece of the Forever Greenery DSP which I think is my favourite new paper and also the 2020-2022 in colour enamel dots.

So I used a Just Jade card base with a piece of the upcoming DSP layered onto Soft Suede. I snipped out my tree trunk (very easy) and embossed and cut out the leaves using the Nature’s Roots Framelits dies and layered it on my banner which I cut out using the triple banner punch. I then sprinkled on a few of the new in colour enamel dots.

I can’t wait to play with the other new colours as well.

Bird Ballad Laser-cut cards

Leave a reply

I wanted to do something a little different with the Bird Ballad Laser-cut cards so I decided to add a frame using the Stitched Rectangles dies (148551) out of very vanilla card stock

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Bird Ballad Laser-cut cards - Stitched Rectangles dies -

This makes it a lot simpler to add the petal pink piece of cardstock to the inside of the card base since you have a larger margin. Next I cut a banner slightly under 1 inch wide and embossed it in gold with a sentiment from the Here’s a Card stamp set (149438). I used the triple banner punch to make the flag on the banner and added it to the card leaving space on the right hand side.

For the decoration, I used the Perennial Essence Vellum cardstock (149101) to cut out petals using the Perennial Flower punch (149522) and the Leaf punch (144667) and a gold Faceted Gem (144141). In general, I don’t use much vellum, but I love it here.

Let me know what you think – both on the card and your use of vellum.

Eastern Palace Specialty DSP again

Leave a reply

Here’s another piece of the Eastern Specialty DSP but a completely different colorway. This one is pairing Fresh Fig with the Tranquil Tide instead of Lemon Lime Twist. It’s a fairly lively print which gave me a few issues as I tried to pair it with the new Eastern Medallions Thinlits dies, but everything I tried came out too busy. So this one just has a simple banner.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Eastern Specialty DSP - Endless Birthday Wishes

The card base is very vanilla (another reason to love the Eastern Specialty DSP) with a deep border of Fresh Fig before a piece of the pretty DSP. I then took a piece of very vanilla scrap and stamped the sentiment from Endless Birthday Wishes (it’s going away, but guaranteed to be available until next Monday) in Fresh Fig. I think this may be the most used sentiment that I have in my collection! I had trimmed the scrap to be just under an inch wide so that it would easily slide into the triple banner punch. I cut a piece of fresh fig just over an inch wide and cut one end of the banner with the triple banner punch. At this point, I realised that I’d have to be really careful to accurately use the punch for the other end so I glued the two pieces together and used scissors to cut the flag in the fresh fig. It’s not as simple, but it’s safer! I popped this up with dimensionals.

Paper Pumpkin February 2017 Alternative

Leave a reply

Here’s my first Paper Pumpkin February 2017 Alternative, the Many Happy Birthdays kit. Lately my Paper Pumpkin seems to take quite a while to get to me – eight days this time. Hence the delay in the alternative cards.

Paper Pumpkin February 2017 Alternative - Many Happy Birthdays - Blossom Bunch punch - Triple Banner punch

I used various circle punches, 2, 1 1/2 and 1 inches,  to punch out circles from one of the cards (I’ve still got enough to make 2 more cards like this one from the one card) and also a scrap of flirty flamingo. Next I created my banner, using the triple banner punch and a scrap of whisper white. I used the included stamp set in the Paper Pumpkin for the sentiment, leaving a space on the left hand side. I somehow managed to add a smudge of ink on the left hand side of the banner, but seeing as the space was designed for the blossom bunch punch flower, it didn’t matter a bit! I pushed the back of my paper piercer into the centre of the flowers to make the flower more 3D and then glued the 2 pieces together with glue dots.

I also added a scrap circle to the back of my largest circle so that it would be level since I was putting one side of it over another. The smallest circle is popped up with dimensionals. A scattering of three rhinestones finishes off the card.
