HAPPILY EVER AFTER

Hello to my wonderful friends who love card making and paper crafting as much a sI do – thanks for popping by again.

Yesterday, I mentioned that I needed to make more wedding cards to top up my supply of them for the next market in February.

I thought, for this card, I would use some of the products from the new LOVE YOU ALWAYS SUITE and team them up with the SO SENTIMENTAL BUNDLE from the 2020-2021 ANNUAL CATALOGUE.

The LOVE YOU ALWAYS DESIGNER SERIES PAPER, LOVE YOU ALWAYS FOIL SHEETS and FLORAL HEARTDIES added subtle and elegant bling to the card.

I used my STAMPARATUS to stamp the sentiment onto a piece of Blushing Bride card stock in the same colour. After I cleaned the stamp, I restamped the sentiment using Versamark and then heat embossed some clear embossing powder. This gives the sentiment a shine similar to the foil.

The tiny hearts come from the long edge die – I glued this along the bottom edge of the card insert. I added some of the hearts to the card front and envelope. The two banner ends were cut from each end of the pop up banner in the FLORAL HEART DIES.

When DSP is this gorgeous, there isn’t really anything else that needs to be added.

I’m very happy with card.

Happy stamping.

DOWN THE AISLE AGAIN

Hello, thank you for popping by again. I hope that you like the projects I share each day.

A quick update – I am now offering monthly card making bundles that you can use at home. The first one will have the Stampin’ Up! ® SWEET STRAWBERRY & BERRY DELIGHTFUL PRODUCTS and all the precut materials you need to make 6 cards and a bonus 3D project. The full details, and a sneak peek, can be found under the CLASSES& EVENTS drop down menu and SENDING STAMPIN’ TIME.

Today, I have another wedding card to share.

This time I paired products from the LOVE YOU ALWAYS SUITE, from the JANUARY – JUNE 2021 MINI CATALOGUE, with the LAST A LIFETIME STAMP SET from the 2020 – 2021 ANNUAL CATALOGUE.

I used the Rococo Rose sheet of LOVE YOU ALWAYS SPECIALTY DSP. It appears that I am beginning to ‘enjoy’ fussy cutting – I cut out several of the flowers from the DSP to position them on the card front, card insert and envelope front.

The three larger flowers has a dimensional popped on the back and then placed in a matching position. They look great with the added height.

The stitched, scallop rectangle die from the STITCHED SO SWEETLY DIES set frames the sentiment beautifully.

Another wedding card to add to the market collection.

Another card that I’m very happy with.

Happy stamping.

MAKE IT SHIMMER

Hello and welcome. I hope you have been visiting me, here, and enjoy the projects that I share. If you are new, welcome – I hope you like what you see.

Today’s wedding card is timed perfectly for a blog hop I’m participating in. The theme for this week is MAKE IT SHIMMER.

I did two things to ensure the card shimmers. The first was to use the new PEARLESCENT SPECIALTY PAPER.

For the second, I used my STAMPARATUS to stamp the greeting in Blushing Bride. After cleaning the stamp, I stamped again Versamark so that I could sprinkle clear embossing powder and heat it.This gives the sentiment a similar sheen.

This new specialty paper is stunning. After running the paper through the STAMPIN’ CUT & EMBOSS MACHINE ans OLD WORLD PAPER 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER, I think the background paper looks like ivory crushed silk taffeta – a perfect look for a wedding card.

A touch of lace and a bouquet finish the card.

Make sure you hop along to the other Freshly Brewed Projects participants for other great ways to make your cards shimmer.
