Thinking of You - Floral Phrases

Hello,

I'm just about to go on holidays, but sadly had the need to make a sympathy card today.

I wanted something a little different, so decided to use the Floral Phrases stamp set and co-ordinating Detailed Floral Thinlits, which is very popular at the moment.  There are lots of ideas shown in the current Stampin' Up! catalogue and on pinterest using this set and Night of Navy cardstock, but I decided to try Emerald Envy.

I love this card.  I'm sure the person I'm sending the card to will think so too.


I added a couple of rhinestones and stamped the flower at the top of the inside to finish it off.  I like the 'thinking of you' sentiment from the Sheltering Tree stampset and thought it was appropriate for this card.

You'll need these items if you'd like to make this card yourself




While the Big Shot Die Brush and Precision Base Plate are not mandatory, they do make the task of using the Detailed Floral Thinlit Die much easier.

If you are interested in purchasing these or any other items, head over to my shop or email me.  I'll be glad to help you.


Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you come back again.

Male Birthday - Washi Tape

Wow this is my 3rd post this morning.

This time I have a card I made using an embossing folder and Washi Tape. Thank you Sarah Rayner - craftingandstamping.com for adding your card to pinterest.

Sadly the Stylish Stripes embossing folder, the Happy Birthday Everyone (originally a hostess set), the black ribbon and the Beach House Washi tape have retired.

The embossing folder was the perfect way to get the washi tape straight.  I have heaps of Washi tape that I've hardly used but now I have, I think I'll be making more.

Male Birthday - No Bones About It

Hello again.

Here's another male birthday card using a stamp set I think is great for men and boys - No Bones about. The sentiment is from the retired Age Awareness set, but this sentiment is so handy for those who don't like birthdays.

I must thank Mary Fish - www.stampinpretty.com for her card.  I just had to CaSE it. :-)

Male Birthday - By the Tide

Hello, welcome to my latest post.

I have lots of retired Stampin' Up! stamps that I just can't part with because they are great for male cards.  Here's one I made recently using the retired By the Tide stamp set.

I started by stamping the wording from the By the Tide stamp set several times without re-inking, then used a dauber to add the So Saffron.  I then added the dots from the No Bones About It stamp set. The shell was stamped in Cherry Cobbler, then coloured in using the aqua painter.  Lastly, I added the sentiment and anchor using Early Espresso and stamped off Memento Black.

It doesn't show well in the photo but I "flicked" the gold Wink of Stella over the card for that something extra to finish it off.

I can't take the credit for this idea though.  I saw it on Pinterest.  Thanks Sylvia Nelson - sylviastamps.typepad.com/sylvias_stamping_corner for sharing.
