GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

Hello to each of you who have popped in to see my latest project. I appreciate you taking the time.

For this card I wanted to use another of the stamps from the CIRCLE CELEBRATION STAMP SET.

CIRCLE CELEBRATION PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET
I USED THE STAMP IN THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER

I hoped that if I stamped this in Versamark and then used HEAT & EMBOSS POWDER, I could achieve an interested gilded effect with the GILDED LEAFING.

I made and cut five of the gilded circles. Two were added to the embossed mat. Then I cut many flowers, using the FLORAL HEARTS DIES, from the remaining circles.

The SCRIPTY 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER was used to add texture to the card mat.

I tried to use the GILDED LEAFING for the sentiment is from the ALWAYS IN MY HEART STAMP SET. However, after several attempts I did not get a result that I was happy with. Instead I used some GOLD STAMPIN’ EMBOSS POWDER.

The banner, from the FLORAL HEART DIES, coordinates perfectly with the sentiment.

This card is very different to what I would normally make. Black and gold!

What do you think of the gilding?

Happy stamping and gilding.

ONE MORE CIRCLE CELEBRATION CARD

Hello! Thank you for popping by.

This is the third card I have made using the CIRCLE CELEBRATION STAMP SET. This is a rainbow inspired card.

I started by cutting 1/2″ strips of card stock in Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Mango Melody, Pacific Point and Poppy Parade. These were then adhered onto a piece of Basic White card stock. Then I cut some 1/2″ and 1″ strips of the rainbow.

Seeing these rainbow strips against the Basic Black card base was great – they totally pop on the black.

Then I stamped the large circle stamp, that has the three concentric images, three times in three colours. Then I used the LAYERING CIRCLES DIES to cut all three, as you can see. I popped each layer up with dimensionals.

Finally, I coloured the sentiment stamp with STAMPIN’ WRITE MARKERS™ to individually colour each of the letters. The rod, holding the letters, was coloured using Basic Gray.

This is a very colourful card – it’s certainly bright. Who would send a rainbow thank you card to?

Happy stamping!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Hello! I enjoy sharing my projects with each of you. Thanks for popping by.

I have made a few cards using the CIRCLE CELEBRATIONS STAMP SET and I shared one yesterday. Today I have another for you.

I used three of the stamps to create the patterns for this card. Two of them were stamped dirrectly onto a Basic White mat. I used the third one to stamp and then cut out the circles before gluing them onto coloured circle bases.

The rainbow of colours are Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Gree, Highland Heather, Pacific Point and Poppy Parade.

Once the colour circles were glued onto the mat piece, I used the OLD WORLD PAPER 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER to create the texture.

I used STAMPIN’ WRITE MARKERS™ to colour each word separately. The stamp was on my Stamparatus and I used a post it note to cover the other word. Once the word was inked up, I removed the post it note and stamped the word. Then I cleaned the stamp and repeated this, colouring the other word.

I used STAMPIN’ BLENDS to colour some RHINESTONE BASIC JEWELS to coordinate.

I love the explosion of colour on this card. Who would you send this birthday card to?

Happy stamping.
