Paper Sweeties September 2020 New Release Rewind!

  

 

Hello crafty friends — welcome to day #3 of the September 2020 *NEW* Release Rewind at Paper Sweeties!

This month there is a new stamp and die set called 

With Heartfelt Thoughts and it has some sweet sentiments for

cards such as thank you, condolences, sympathy and inspirational themes as well.

Here is my card using the new stamps and flower dies from this beautiful set.

For this card I stamped the back side of the flower stamp in pretty rainbow colors and then turned the stamp to the right side and stamped in black. I learned this technique a while ago and it was perfect for these floral stamps.  The sentiment is from the Love You To Pieces stamp set and the assorted sequins gave just the right shine to the flower centers.

Make sure to check out the rest of the DT to see what they have created with this new set.

Paper Sweeties May 2019 New Release Sneak Peeks!

Welcome back to my blog crafty friends!

I'm so glad you've stopped by today because Paper Sweeties has 2 new stamp sets

with matching dies that I think you are going to fall in love with!

The first one is called Basket Add-on: Thinking of You and the matching 

dies are called Basket Add-on: Thinking of You Sweet Cuts.

This stamp set has the most beautiful cluster of flowers that are just waiting

to be colored with pencils, Copic markers or watercolors.

They really would look pretty no matter how you colored them.

My card base was made from pink card stock and I embossed 

an off white panel with a flower embossing folder on top of the base.

Next, I chose to color the flowers from the new stamp set 

with some pretty pink Copic markers and placed them in a basket on a lace doily.  

The basket was cut out of wood grain patterned paper

using the Sweet Cuts Basket die.

I tied a pretty bow using some Frosting seam binding to the handle

and glued a Raspberry sequin in the middle of the bow.

I stamped the sentiment from the Basket Add-on: Thinking of You

stamp set on to off white card stock and matted it with pink paper

to match the card base.  I also added 2 Raspberry sequins to the sentiment.

I love how pretty this card came out and I am looking forward to 

watercoloring these pretty flowers for another card!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today, don't forget to 

check back tomorrow for Release Day!

Make sure you visit all of the other New Release Team members blogs to 

see what they have created for the sneak peeks!

Florals on Wood

I'm up on the Kat Scrappiness blog today with a quick post.

I wanted to share two cards that I made using pretty florals on a wood background.  The first card uses bright flowers on a dark wood background. The sentiment is from the Crafters Gonna Craft stamp set.

The second one uses pastel flowers on a lighter wood background and the sentiment is from the Everyday Brushstrokes stamp set.

I've always loved the combination of flowers and wood together!  The Stitched Scalloped Collage Frame Die  on the first card, and the Stitched Diagonal Backdrop Die  on the second one created the perfect backgrounds to achieve these 2 looks.  The 2 cards came together fairly easily.  I used some wood patterned paper for the backgrounds and some flower dies from my stash.  To give the flowers some dimension I inked the edges of the pastel ones and dry embossed them and for the bright flowers I lifted the edges off the card.

To add some bling to my cards I placed some Sparkling Clear Flower Blossom sequins on the flowers and around the edges.  I hope you enjoyed the cards today, I will be back next week with some new cards using some exciting new stamps and dies from our September release so make sure to check back then!

Papertrey Ink Create Along With Us

I am a long time admirer of all things Papertrey Ink.  I was so shocked to find out that Nichole was leaving but I'm sure it was the right decision for her and I wish her luck!  The talented designers at PTI have always inspired me to create some amazing cards and projects and today was no different.  Heather Nichols is one of the designers that I have always admired.  I love her classy style and I have a feeling that she loves kraft card stock as much as I do.  Here is the card that she made for the December release that I fell in love with and inspired my card today:

I am entering my card into the Create Along With Us challenge for the December release.  

I used one of my favorite floral stamps, Rosie Posie and Rosie Posie 2 with the Holiday die cut from the Wonderful Words: Holidays set.  I stamped the word "HUGS" with the Fresh Alphabet stamp set.  I finished it off with a bow made from rustic jute twine.  I love how the card came together in the end and I can't wait for the Farmers Market Floral stamps to be released!

Here is my card:

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

I already am!
