Detailed Floral Gate Fold Card

 

Peekaboo Peach is such a pretty color so decided to keep this simple with just the Whisper White under it to show the details of the lovely Detailed Floral thinlits.

 

To make this card you will need a piece of cardstock 4-1/4" x 11".

 

Place the largest piece of the floral die at one end and run through the Big Shot then position the edge piece die and run through again.

After you have the one side cut, score so that you have a border about the same as the top and bottom of where you cut out the die.  After making that score line measure 5-1/2" away and score again.

Position the smaller die on the opposite end so it has even borders between the top, bottom and score line.

Cut out in the Big Shot and then position edge die and cut out.

 



 

Fold on score lines.

 

For the inside use a piece of cardstock 4"x10-1/2" scored in the middle at 5-1/4".

Adhere down in the center of the card base and stamp your greeting.

For the inside greeting I used the flower image from Floral Phrases and the "happy anniversary" is from the Best Birds stamp set.

Detailed Floral Thinlits

 

My first card using the Detailed Floral Thinlits. 

Keepin' it simple.

I just cut out both images on Whisper White cardstock and adhered them onto a Real Red cardstock base.  The one on the front I added little pieces of dimensionals, that was a pain but I thought it looked better than just flat down on the paper.

The greeting is a new stamp called Stylized Birthday.

I embossed it in white.

Below is the front of the card...sorry about the picture...it really is Real Red.



 

 

Love these new thinlits and they are so easy to use with the new Big Shot Platform & Thin Die Adapter and the Precision Base Plate.

You definitely also want the Die Brush with foam pad to loosen up all the little pieces.

Floral Phrases Note Cards

 

The minute I saw the Floral Boutique Suite in the new Stampin' Up! catalog on pages 76-77, I knew I had to have it all!

Love the classic combination of Navy and White.

 

Here I used the Floral Phrases stamp set and the coordinating Floral Boutique designer series paper along with the Whisper White Note Cards and Envelopes to create some quick and elegant thank you cards.

 

Just started playing with the coordinating Detailed Floral Thinlits and I will have some cards to share with those so check back.

Swirly Bird Climbing Rose

Okay, this is my last Swirly Bird stamp set card for now. 

I am sure there will be more in the future.

 

I got this idea from a card I saw somewhere...probably Pinterest.

Using the Swirly Scribbles thinlits die I cut out the "vines" with Soft Suede card stock.

The flowers and leaves are all from the Swirly Bird stamp set and have coordinating dies in the Swirly Scribbles thinlits set so you don't have to cut them out!

I stamped the flowers with Sweet Sugarplum and the leaves in Emerald Envy.

 

For the background I used the Brick Wall embossing folder and applied Soft Suede ink to the raised outline of the bricks.

 

The "Thank You" is from the Rose Wonder stamp set.

 

I attached the roses and leaves with glue dots, just gives them a little dimension.

More Swirly Bird

This Swirly Bird stamp set has so many options.

Here is a little boat at sea, with the "sea" being a die from the Swirly Scribbles thinlits set.

I used the new In-Color of Dapper Denim, Real Red and Whisper White.

The "oh, happy day" comes from the Thoughtful Banners set and I used the coordinating Duet Banner punch.

 

 

Love the little kites you can make with this stamp set!

At first I wasn't sure what the strange triangle shapes in the set were for until I saw a sample.

 

Again, I used Dapper Denim, Real Read and Whisper White on this card.

I glued on some silver sequins but wanted a little more sparkle so added some splatters with the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.  I think this works better with the gold like I did on the card with the bird nest that I shared in the last post.

Swirly Bird Nest

Loving the new In-Color Peekaboo Peach.

On this card I used the new 3/8" Ruched Ribbon in Peekaboo Peach.

 

 

The wreath on this card is made using the Swirly Scribbles thinlits dies with Emerald Envy and Soft Suede cardstock.

For the bird I colored the bird stamp from the Swirly Bird stamp set with markers in Soft Suede, Crumb Cake and Peekaboo Peach. The eggs are Soft sky and the nest is Soft Suede.  These three images have to be hand cut out.

For the background I used the Woodgrain embossing folder with Very Vanilla cardstock.

I used the Gold Wink of Stella Glitter brush and splattered it on the card.

2016 - 2017 Stampin' Up! Catalog

 

It's that time again...a NEW Stampin' Up! Catalog and lots of fun new items!!!

 

 

I have been playing with the new In-Colors and new stamp set Swirly Bird and coordinating Swirly Scribbles thinlits dies.

 

Wasn't sure about them but loved the dies so might as well get the stamp set in a bundle and save a little money...anyway, I love this stamp set now! 

 

 

I used the new In-Colors Emerald Envy, Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach and Sweet Sugarplum.

 

The cute banner on this card is made using the new Duet Banner punch and the Thoughtful Banners stamp set.  The background of the largest flower has a piece of designer series paper from the Playful Palette paper stack behind it.

 

The words on this last card are from the Thoughtful Banners stamp set.

 

There is more to it than just the flower images so check back because I will be sharing more cards that I have made with this set.
