ON TO A NEW TECHNIQUE TODAY

I have two techniques to share with you today. Using the Daffodil Daydream Bundle and Daffodil Afternoon 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper, I decided to use the Whitewash technique and Mirror Image stamping technique.

Let me take you through some photos showing the mirror image stamping technique. I used my Whisper White Craft Stampin’ Pad before heat embossing White Stampin’ Emboss™ Powder.

I used the Silicon Craft Sheet so that I could make sure that I had a well inked image.

Then I carefully placed a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock over the stamped silicon sheet and pressed the stamp down firmly to transfer the ink onto the cardstock.

This makes sure that there is an image on the side of the cardstock needed to use the die to cut the mirror image.

Voila – a mirror image of the daffodil.

Here is the end result.

I stamped the daffodils on a larger piece of cardstock and used one of the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut the Crumb Cake panel. The mirror daffodil was die cut. Then I used the fine tip Water Painter to paint some Whisper White Craft ink in the images. I used my Heat Tool to dry the ink.

After cleaning the Water Painter, it was used to colour the flowers using Daffodil Delight and Pear Pizzazz.

I wrapped some Linen Thread several times around the scalloped panel and tied a bow.

The birthday greeting, from the Celebrating You Stamp Set, was stamped and heat embossed in the same way the flowers were. I cut this piece of card down so that I could cut two scallops at each end of greeting panel.

I used two designs from the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to layer up on the front of the Daffodil Delight card base.

After I popped up the scalloped layer on the card front, using Stampin’ Dimensionals, I added the birthday greeting and mirror daffodil.

I stamped the single daffodil image on the card insert and envelope in Daffodil Delight. The last step was to add some Elegant Faceted Gems.

It is always great to find different ways to combine new and existing products. The Scalloped Contours Dies were perfect for this project and I hadn’t used them in a while.

Tomorrow I will have three different projects to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

SHARING MY MEMORIES ON MONDAYS

I know exactly the photos I plan to use on this page. They were taken in 1994, when we were living in Bargara. My sister and her husband were visiting us. Our daughter was only 3. One afternoon, she and my brother-in-law were relaxing in the backyard overlooking the rocky foreshore.

They were just lazing about, soaking in the sun, laying under the pandanus palms. I hope you can imagine the scene.

It was a great example of LAZY DAISY DAYS.

I was inspired by a Facebook Live by Patty Bennett a couple of days ago. She showed how to make tulips using the Tulip Dies. She used Designer Series Paper rather than cardstock. Just like her, I used the Simply Marbleous 6″x 6″ DSP and the New Horizons 6″x 6″ DSP.

The flowers were cut from two sheets of the Bumblebee Simply Marbelous DSP. I used one of my Blending Brushes to add Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry ink.

The stems and leaves were cut from one of the New Horizons sheets.

After I assembled the flowers, I positioned and attached the flowers on this black and white Daffodil Afternoon 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

Then I cut two Crushed Curry layers for the photos to be attached to.

I added Adhesive Sheet to the back of a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock and cut the letters for the title. The Playful Alphabet Dies are perfect for scrapbook pages.

My final step was to create two journalling tags, using the Tailor Made Tags Dies. I took some lengths of white twine from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack to create the bows.

Adding additional colour to DSP using ink and Blending Brushes is such a great technique.

Tomorrow is Technique Tuesday but I will have a different technique to share with you. So until then, happy stamping.

STEP IT UP SUNDAY

Today I take the #simplestamping cards from yesterday and step them up a bit.

For this card I added a panel of the FREE Daffodil Afternoon 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-bration brochure.

I stamped, coloured and cut the flowers using the Daffodil Daydream Stamp Set and Daffodil Dies. The flowers were then attached to the card front using Multipurpose Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The LinenThread was used to create a double bow and a Mini Glue Dot was used to secure it in place.

After stamping the greeting on a piece of Basic White cardstock it was cut using one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies. Dimensionals were used to pop the greeting up off the front of the card.

The butterfly image was stamped inside the card and on the envelope.

Finally, I added some 2021 – 2023 In Colour Jewels to the card front.

The second card has a few extra features.

I used the same panel of DSP and stamped the splotches image across it. Then a Square Vellum Doiley was attached to the DSP. I wrapped some Linen Thread several times around this panel and tied a bow.

The stamped, coloured and die cut daffodils were then attached to the card front.

I used the same greeting as I did in the previous card.

Just like the previous card, the butterfly image and In Colour Jewels were used.

For the third card I stamped a mirror image of the single daffodil image. To do this, I placed my Silicon Craft Sheet onto my Stamparatus and the stamp onto the hinged platform. I inked the image and stamped it onto the silicon mat several times. Then I placed a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock carefully over the sheet and stamped the image again. Having the stamped image on the other side of the mirror image allowed me to die cut the image.

I used three strips of the DSP to the card front and attached the cut flowers using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The same greeting was used and I die cut it the same way. I also stamped the splotches image on that piece. The Linen Thread was then used tie a triple bow.

Then I repeated the butterfly image and jewels steps.

Using the Daffodil Daydream Suite Collection this week is going to be so much fun.

Tomorrow is Memories on Monday and I have a great scrapbook page to share with you.

Until tomorrow, happy stamping.
