Stampin’ Up! Texture Chic Designer Series Paper

I needed a birthday card for my uncle so I made today’s card for him and mailed it off. I have a hard time making cards for males. I always ask my husband, is this card too girly and usually it is! I used Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper and the stamp sets, Peaceful Moments and Artistically Inked. You can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List. 

 

 

 

I started with a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock and scored it in two places and then folded on the score lines to create my card base. I cut two pieces of Texture Chic Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front panels. I stamped the sentiment in Evening Evergreen ink (you could also use Soft Succulent ink) using the stamp set, Peaceful Moments, and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I used these same dies to cut a larger circle out of Gold Foil, and adhered the sentiment to it. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals, just at the top and adhered it to the top panel. 

 

 

 

I cut a piece of Basic White cardstock for the inside of the card. I added a strip of Texture Chic Designer Series Paper to the top and bottom and stamped the sentiment using Soft Succulent ink and the stamp set, Artistically Inked. Then I adhered it to the inside of the card.

Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper

Happy Wednesday! 

Today’s cards were made using Stampin’ Up! Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper and the Peaceful Moments stamp set.This paper is a different size than we’ve carried before (4″ x 6″) and one side of this double-sided paper has gold accents so I used our Gold Foil Sheets on both cards.

 

Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper

 

 

I started with a piece of Polished Pink cardstock and then added a layer of Gold Foil and another piece of Polished Pink that I embossed using the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder.

 

Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper

 

Then I layered a piece of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper with a piece of Basic White cardstock. I wrapped a piece of white ribbon (from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack) around the two layers and tied a knot.  I placed Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back and adhered it to the front of the card.  The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink and cut out with the Layering Circles Dies.  I cut a larger scalloped circle out of Gold Foil, adhered the two together, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the top and bottom (I didn’t put any in the middle so they weren’t sitting on the ribbon) and placed it on the card.  To complete the card, I added three Brushed Brass Butterflies. 

 

Flowers for Every Season

 

I created this next card first and afterwards decided I wanted a piece of Gold Foil for the second layer. I used Blushing Bride and Balmy Blue cardstock and the sentiment was stamped in Balmy Blue. The Blushing Bride cardstock was embossed using the Painted Texture Embossing Folder and I placed five Polished Dots on the front of the card.  You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.
