by Tracy | Jul 2, 2020 | Designer Series Paper, Quick & Easy Card
Today’s cards were made using Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Gorgeous Posies. Both cards are very quick and easy to create!
Both cards have a Thick Whisper White card base and this first card has a layer of Magenta Madness cardstock (you can find all the measurements below the Supply List). Next is the Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper. This is 6″ x 6″ paper and includes 4 each of 12 double-sided designs! So many choices!
Using the stamp set, Gorgeous Posies, the sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using a Just Jade stamp pad.
This next card also has a Thick Whisper White card base with a layer of Poppy Parade cardstock and the sentiment was stamped in Poppy Parade ink. Both the Designer Series Paper/cardstock layer and the sentiment have Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back. Stampin’ Dimensionals are a staple in my craft room!
As I mentioned, I used the stamp set, Gorgeous Posies, and this set coordinates with the Gorgeous Posies Project Kit. I shared this beautiful kit several weeks ago (it comes with a gorgeous box). If you missed that post, you can see it here (the Card Sampler I mention at the beginning of the post is no longer available).
Tomorrow I’ll share several more cards using this same layout and more of the patterns in Flowers For Every Season Designer Series Paper.
Enjoy your day!

Today’s card features Meadow Moments Embossing Folders, the Banner Triple Punch and Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper. The base of my card is Misty Moonlight, one of our new In Colors. The Purple Posy cardstock was embossed using one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders (two smaller sized embossing folders are included in this set).
The banner was made using Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper and the ends were cut using the Banner Triple Punch. With this punch you can make a banner in three different widths: 1″, 1-1/2″, and 2″.
The sentiment was stamped using Misty Moonlight ink onto Whisper White paper using the stamp set, So Sentimental and was cut out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back for a little bit of dimension.
To complete the card, I added three of our Elegant Faceted Gems. I think these are my favorite embellishments in the catalog.

by Tracy | Jun 26, 2020 | Masking
To create today’s card, I used a technique called masking and it features the stamp set, Framed For You.
The base of my card is Thick Whisper White cardstock with a layer of Magenta Madness cardstock.The top layer is our regular Whisper White cardstock. I took a piece of Blue Painter’s Tape (you can find this at the grocery store, Target or probably even a drug store) and made it a little bit longer than my Whisper White cardstock, so about 6-1/2″. Before taping it to my cardstock, I taped it to my arm (sounds silly, I know). I did this several times to get some of the stickiness off the tape. If you’re wearing long pants. that will work too. You’ll want to do this step because if the tape is too sticky, it will rip your paper when you remove it. After doing that process several times, I placed the tape in the middle of my cardstock because that’s where I wanted the sentiment to be.
Next, I stamped the flowers and leaves in Magenta Madness, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive ink using the stamp set, Framed For You. Because I wanted the flowers and leaves to look as though they were behind the sentiment, I stamped so that some of each image was on the Whisper White cardstock and some on the blue tape. Once I finished, I carefully pulled the blue tape off the paper. Voila! A masterpiece! Just a word of warning, the ink will be sitting right on top of the tape, so be careful where you put it once you remove it (ask me how I know).
Next, I stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Celebrate Sunflowers. If you wanted, you could always stamp your sentiment first and then place the blue tape over it.
To complete the card, I added three Artistry Blooms Sequins. These are so easy to use because they have adhesive on the back!
I hope you’ll give this technique a try! I had to practice several times because I didn’t like where I placed the flowers and leaves. You might want to practice on a piece of computer paper cut to the size of the cardstock you’ll be using. I did that and once I was happy with my results, I just looked at my practice piece and replicated it. Have fun!!
