Black And Gold

Hi! Today I have the card I demonstrated on last night’s Tuesday with Teresa Facebook Live Demonstration!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how this turned out! The leaves are stamped in Versamark on Basic Black card stock and heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder. Watercolor Pencils are used to color the leaves – they are so vibrant on the Black cardstock.

Here’s the video:

The sentiment is heat embossed with Gold Embossing powder as well on a piece of Basic Black scrap cardstock and then die cut with the stitched frame from the Stitched Seasons coordinating die set. I love the stitched look around the sentiment. There are 3 different sizes of this shape in the set.

Lastly, I die cut the little swirls from Gold Foil paper to attach to the back of he sentiment frame.

The Basic Black stamped panel measures 4 x 5 1/4″ and is mounted on a piece of Gold Foil paper that measures 4 1/8 x 5 3/8″. The base is Basic Black card stock measuring 5 1/2 x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ and folded in half.

A Lemon For Teacher?

Hi! Today I am playing along in Kylie’s International Blog Highlights! Our theme this month is Teachers! If you like my card, I’d love your vote! You can vote here and then click on the heart in the upper right corner of my card.

Ok – so here’s my card:

Teachers, Apples, Lemon Zest, Stampin' Up!, SU!

School starts at the end of this month for my kids, so now is a good time be thinking of back-to-school cards and gifts.

I didn’t really have an apple set or anything else teacher related – so I turned my lemons into apples! That’s right – I stamped the lemon from the Lemon Zest stamp set in Real Red ink, punched with the Lemon Builder Punch and then trimmed top and bottom to make an apple. I added a stem using a scrap of Early Espresso card stock. The leaves are stamped in Old Olive. What do you think? Pretty clever?

I added a Welcome sentiment using the Banners For You stamp set and the Duo Banner punch.

The apples are attached to a piece of Designer Series Paper from the Tropical Escape Paper Stack that measures 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″. This is mounted on Early Espresso Card Stock measuring 4″ x 5 1/4″. The base is Old Olive Card stock measuring 5 1/2 x 8 1/2″ – scored and folded at 4 1/4″.

Make sure you check out all the other demonstrators for more fun Teacher themed projects!

You’ll find all the supplies to make this card in my on-line store.

Don’t forget it is Bonus Days time and each $50 (US, prior to S/H and tax) you spend this month, earns you a $5 coupon to use in September.

Mountain View

Hi! How are you today? Sorry I didn’t get to post the other day – I’ve been trying to get better about posting 3-4 times a week – and that didn’t happen. But, I am back today with a card featuring the Waterfront stamp set.

Hello, Just Because, Waterfront, Stampin' Up!, SU! This is the card I featured at the Catalog Kick-off back in June to showcase the Stamparatus tool. This tool makes it so easy to create scenes such as this one – and to mass produce them as well. The mountains are stamped in Soft Suede, the water in Balmy Blue, the trees in Old Olive and the sun in So Saffron. The Sentiment is from the Varied Vases stamp set and is stamped in Soft Suede ink.

The mountain scene is stamped on a piece of Whisper White Card stock that measures 3 3/4 x 5″. This is mounted on a piece of Soft Suede card stock that measures 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″. The base of the card is thick Whisper White measuring 4 1/4″ x 11″ – scored at 5 1/2″ and folded on the score line.

These products can be found in my on-line store here.

Hostess Code until August 15 is W6P6Y3C6

This card does have some sentimental value to me as well as growing up my family would spend a week at a lake in the summer and sometimes I’d get to see a view similar to this.

This coming week I’ll be showcasing a few cards featuring the new Blended Seasons bundle that is available for purchase for August only. Stay tuned!

Thanks for stopping by!
