OnStage Card Swap…Day 2

Yesterday I shared with you the first batch of beautiful cards I received at the Stampin’ Up! OnStage event I attended in Hartford, Conn.  If you missed that post you can view it HERE. Today, I have more inspiration to get your creative juices flowing.

I was so excited to get Linda’s Double Triangle Fun Fold Card!  I have been wanting to make one of these fun folds and hers is just over the top gorgeous! I love everything about it from the Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper to the organza ribbon she dyed to match.  Here’s how it looks opened.

Card Created by Ramsey Alexander

This card is just beautiful in person! Ramsey used the Brusho Crystal Colour ink crystals to watercolor over the heat embossed butterfly from the Beautiful Day stamp set.  I need to pull out my Crystal Colours and play.  Ramsey has done several of these cards and they come out beautiful and different every time.  This is a fun watercolor technique!

Stampin Up Beautiful Bouquet friend card idea - For inspiration, ordering and more visit www.juststampin.com Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Card Created by Deb Echelmeyer

Deb is so creative! I love how she used the flower stems from the Bouquet Bunch Dies to make a lilac bush!  (Which just happen to be my favorite flower scent!)  Deb added texture and layers to this beautiful card using the Brick Wall Embossing Folder and Layering Dies. Such a pretty spring card!

Card Created by Rosanne Mulhern

Rosanne’s card is another example of adding layers to create a beautiful card! Like Deb, she used the Beautiful Bunch Framelits to cut out the flowers and leaves. Even though this card has many flowers and layers, it has a clean & simple feel with the black & white background. I love the sentiment (and font) she used from the Birthday Blooms stamp set. It is retiring in May but it’s definitely one I will keep and continue to use. I love all the sentiments and beautiful flowers in this set.  Check it out below and be sure to get it before it’s gone!

I so appreciate the stamping community and my stamping friends! Everyone so willingly shares their ideas and talent.  Together we really can make a difference as we share our handmade kindness one card at a time! Make someone smile today!!

Today’s the Day for Thoughtful Branches

img_3055

I made this card using the new Thoughtful Branches Bundle that is available starting today until August 31st (or while supplies last). The inspiration for my card came from my own backyard.  I love hydrangeas…they remind me of summers on Cape Cod. While we were on vacation our hydrangeas bloomed. It was a nice welcome home surprise.

For my background I used Blushing Bride card stock and the Brick Wall embossing folder.  I sponged the brick using Sahara Sand ink and a sponge dauber.  It was quick and easy to do.

I wanted to add depth to my flowers so I cut 3 of the flower thinlits using whisper white card stock and attached them with glue dots.  The glue dots raise them just enough.  I cut the leaves in Wild Wasabi card stock, attached them to a scrap piece using the fine-tip glue pen, and cut them out with my paper snips.

I assembled the card on Blushing Bride card stock and added some tiny pearls to the flowers.

This card has so many possibilities…birthday, sympathy, get well, or thinking of you (which is what I stamped inside my card and on the envelope). I love this font!
