mmm...Stampin' Time

Today I have two stepped up versions of my Saturday #simplestamping cards to share with you. This week I’m focusing all my projects on the Abigail Rose Suite Collection.

Watch this product video so you can see the whole suite in all its glory.

For the first card, I cut a layer of Smoky Slate cardstock. Then I cut a piece of Abigail Rose 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

The smaller flowers and leaves were coloured using Mint Macaron and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends.

After this coloured layer was adhered to the Smoky Slate, I took a length of Petal Pink ribbon from the Cotton Ribbon Combo Pack and wrapped it diagonally around these layers, securing it with Tear & Tape. Then it was adhered to a Basic White Note Card & Envelope.

Using a different DSP design, I was able to use the largest of the dies from the Cottage Flowers dies to cut the three flowers that were coloured and popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The birthday greeting was stamped and cut using one if the Sending Dies.

I used the leaves image to finish the inside of the card and envelope.

Three Polished Dots (retired) were added to the card front.

I love this close up of the DSP because it shows the subtle flecks of Early Espresso.

The second card includes some fun ribbon tricks.

The 7/8″ Natural Finish Ribbon has such a soft texture. The first way I used the ribbon was to cut a length in half and pulled away some of the threads to leave a great frayed effect. Then the two lengths were adhered to the DSP layed with the frayed edges facing out.

I pulled a couple of the inner threads and drew them up to gather the ribbon into a circle.

The flowers and leaves were stamped and cut before I coloured them. Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, I layered them up from the front of the card.

the greeting was stamped twice and die cut to separate the words. A few Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals were enough to pop them up.

The card was finished with some Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.

Check out the texture of the ribbon!

Tomorrow is Memories on Monday. So I will have a scrapbook layout for you then.

Until then, happy stamping.

This week I am featuring the Abigail Rose Suite.

The first card is stamped and coloured using Stampin’ Write Markers™.

The space around each of the images is still ‘off’. I will try to find a work around.

The second card has a second flower stamped, coloured and fussy cut. The greeting was stamped, cut and had Stampin’ Dimensionals added.

The secon flower was stamped twice, coloured and fussy cut to create two different sizes for this layered look.

For the last #simplestamping card I added a piece of the Abigail Rose 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

The large floral image was stamped and then cut using the coordinating die from the Cottage Flowers Dies set.

Before placing the flower on the card, I added a length of Naturals Finish Ribbon under it.

The greeting was stamped and I used one of the dies from the Sending Dies set.

Tomorrow I will have some stepped up cards to share.

Until then, happy stamping.

Today’s Fun Fold Card is a Corner Fold Card.

For this card, just fold down the corner and add some square layers.

I measured 3-1/2″ across the top and down the side so that I could score the diagonal for the corner fold.

Some of the Designer Series Paper was cut for the card front.

The two square panels measure 3″x 3″ and 2-7/8″x 2-7/8″.

The sentiment was stamped in Cajun Craze on some Sahara Sand cardstock before being cut with the scalloped circle die from the All That Dies.

The card was finished with some Rustic Metallic Dots.

That’s the last project using the He’s The Man Suite for this week. I will definitely be using this collection again soon.

Tomorrow I will introduce you to a collection of new products.

Until then, happy stamping.
