Ornate Garden Suite-Mother's Day Card

Hello and thank you for stopping by my blog! I have made a swap for a group I am part of in Facebook and it was for a Mother's Day Card!

I have decided to use Ornate Garden Suite, paired with sentiments from Strong & Beautiful! I love this Ornate Garden Suite! I partially cased this card from another demonstrator, Jessica Brigden but I didn't add any of the die cut pieces as I was on a deadline and needed to produce 11 cards!

My measurements are as follows:

1. Blushing Bride Card Base- 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".
2. Terracotta Tile cut at 4" x 5 1/4".
3. Whisper White cut at 3 3/4" x 5". Inside piece is 4" x 5 1/4".
4. Ornate Garden Specialty DSP cut at 3 3/4" x 3 3/4".
5. Terracotta Tile Ribbon from suite at about 4 1/4".


I stamped all images in Terracotta Tile ink, and then added Champagne Rhinestones for some bling!

Enjoy! If you need any of these supplies to make this card, visit my shop now button on the main page of my blog!!

Happy Stampin' Everyone!

Saturday Night Spotlight- Using up Scraps of Designer Series Paper!!!

Tonight I did my Saturday Night Spotlight Facebook live and I featured using up scraps of DSP to make simple cards! I was inspired by a fellow demo Connie Stewart, and she is simply amazing at what she does! I used her ideas for a few cards changing colors but then made a few of my own as well! Sharing what we love, and loving what we do, it is okay to use others as your inspiration, simply give them credit.

All 4 of my cards featured Whisper White Thick for my card bases, cut at either 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" or they were 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2".  I featured the Brights 6x6 DSP, which is now sold out, but you can use whatever DSP you have laying around that you have scraps of!! It does not matter!

Two of my cards had layers, which were 4" x 5 1/4", and then one had a layer of whisper white that was 3 3/4" x 5".

All of my scraps of DSP were 1" x 6" to start and then cut to fit each individual card!

I hope you enjoy! I used different sentiments from stamp sets in the annual or mini catalogs that are current, and some scraps and punches!!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today! I hope you enjoyed these cards and if you need any supplies and don't have a demo, simply click my Shop Now button on my blog and happy shopping and stamping!!!

Paper Crafting Blog Hop April 2020- Thinking of You

Thank you so much for joining our April Blog hop this month, featuring a theme of Thinking of you Girls!  We have talented Independent Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrators from around the world taking part in this special monthly blog hop.  You will see great projects from either the annual or mini current catalogs featured this month.  You may have arrived from Annette's  blog and her project was stunning and amazing!

I am featuring a stamp set from the Annual Catalog for you this month called Modern Heart! It is a stamp set designed by a Million Dollar Achiever Steffi Helmschrott. I knew I wanted this stamp set as soon as I saw it in the Annual Catalog as I love the geometric design and it has such beautiful sentiments in it as well.

I am also choosing to pair with with the soon to be retiring In-Color collection from 2018-2020 that will be retiring this June.  Those colors include Lovely Lipstick, Pineapple Punch, Call Me Clover, Blueberry Bushel and Grapefruit Grove! I am really going to miss these colors as they are so vibrant and beautiful. I am featuring Lovely Lipstick and Pineapple Punch, two of my favorites out of the 5.

My card base is in Lovely Lipstick, cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".  For my first layer I am using Pineapple Punch that is cut at 4" x 5 1/4".  My basic black layer is cut at 3 1/8" x 4 5/8" and my shimmery whisper white layer is cut at 3" x 4 1/2".

For the Pineapple Punch layer I took the small heart from the stamp set and stamped it with Pineapple Punch ink along the bottom edge for a tone on tone look. I used Vellum and Versamark ink to stamp my large heart and heat embossed it with the shimmer black embossing powder and used my heat tool to emboss it. I then fussy cut that heart out which is very easy to do.  I used the big watercolor image for the background of the heart and stamped it off first for a lighter effect using Lovely Lipstick ink.

For my sentiment I chose to use the one from this set and place it in the lower right side of my whisper white.  To finish off the front of the card I used my the In-color enamel dots to bling it out a bit. I used dimensionals to adhere the black layer to the Pineapple Punch layer, and tombow glue for all other layers.

For the inside of the card I simply stamped that small heart again along the bottom alternating with Pineapple Punch and Lovely Lipstick inks.  I wanted plenty of space to write a message to a friend during this time. I used a piece of Shimmery Whisper White Cardstock inside that measures 4" x 5 1/4".
