Mother's Day Cards

 Mother's Day Cards

Mother's Day is fast approaching. Here are a few cards I made that not only celebrate Mom but also showcase some new products that Stampin' Up! will be releasing on May 4th, 2021 in their new Annual Catalogue!

For this card I used a New 2021-2022 In-Color called Fresh Freesia. I didn't have any matching ribbon so I used a Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blend and coloured some White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon to match. I stamped the flower first using Fresh Freesia Ink, then I embossed the Basic White panel using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder. I added a small detailed butterfly from Brilliant Wings Dies, some Rhinestones and a tiny bit of Silver Glimmer Paper on the sentiment. The stamp sets are Flowering Blooms and Timeless Tulips for the sentiment.

For this card I added a silver bow from the new Simply Elegant Trim, a Silver Glimmer strip on the sentiment and a Vellum butterfly. 

This card uses Soft Succulents Card Stock and Ink, a bow from Forever Greenery Trim Combo, sentiment from Quite Curvy and a Silver Foil detailed butterfly.

I hope you like todays card!

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Pretty Peacock Floral

 

Pretty Peacock Floral Card

It is almost time to say goodbye to one of my favorite colours, Pretty Peacock. It is such a beautiful colour, and I will miss it!  Soon we will have 5 new In-Colours to fall in love with!!

If any of the 2019-2021 In-Colours are your favourites, remember that they and all products associated with them will be retiring! Order now to avoid disappointment. 

Here are the directions for todays card.

The card base is Pretty Peacock cut to 4 1/4" x 11" and scored at 5 1/2".

The Basic White layer is 3" x 4 1/4". The Pretty Peacock layer is 4" x 2 3/4". Emboss this layer using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder. Attach the Pretty Peacock layer to the Basic White layer, then attach them to the card front using Dimensionals.

Die cut a large oval from the Stitched Shapes Dies using Basic White Card Stock.

Stamp the flower from "Flowering Blooms" using Memento Black Ink onto the oval.

I used the Light Pool Party Stampin' Blends and outlined the image. I really like the look this creates. 

Attach the oval to the card front using Dimensionals.

Tie a small double bow using the Pool Party Sheer ribbon, attach to the card using a Glue Dot.

Add a few Rhinestones to finish it off.

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Butterfly Thank you!

 Butterfly Thank You!

A simple card today.

I started with a Basic White card base of 4 1/4" x 11" and scored at 5 1/2".

Using the Blending Brushes and Balmy Blue Classic Ink, add some colour to the right hand side of the card base.

Cut two 1/2" x 4" or 3" pieces of Basic Black Card Stock. I angle cut the ends. One strip is slightly longer than the other. Attach both strips to the card base with a small gap between them.

Sprinkle some Wink Of Stella onto the card base.

Using a Basic Black and a Pool Party or Balmy Blue Stampin' Write Marker, splatter some of the marker ink onto the card base over the sponged area.

Loop some Pool Party Sheer Ribbon back and forth over the Basic Black strips. Attach down using Glue Dots or Tear And Tape where it will be hidden behind the butterfly.

Die cut one of the larger butterflies from the Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper using the Brilliant Wings Dies.

Attach the butterfly to the card front using Dimensionals.

Add a few Rhinestones. 

Stamp a sentiment onto the bottom using Memento Black Ink.

It took me longer to write this blog post then it did to make the card!! LOL

Thanks for visiting my blog today!! 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
