Ranunculus Romance Simple Stamping

This is my second version for this stamp set!  My first one (which you can find on this blog site) I did as a fun fold card and used some different colors.  I wanted to create a card that you could just stamp and put together and just add a label!

So here we go:  Below you will find step by step instructions, card cuts and the supply list!

Don't forget to add your email to receive my newsletter so you can be updated on my latest card designs and Stampin Up® news!

Card Cuts:

Card Base- Crumb Cake: 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4



Card Stock - Night of Navy: 4 x 5 1/4; 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and 1 1/8 x 1/2

-Very Vanilla: 3 3/4 x 5; 4 x 5 1/4 and 3/4 x 2

Instructions:

1. On the 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 Very Vanilla piece stamp the following: (Note: you will stamp each image several times and stamping off as you go so that the ink gets lighter)

- Script Stamp & Small Label: Crumb Cake ink 

- Fancy Border Stamp: Soft Suede ink

-Small Eiffel tower stamp image: Mossy Meadow

-Flower: Night of Navy ink

2.  You will also want to stamp each of these images once onto the bottom right hand corner of the 4 x 5 1/4 Very Vanilla piece. 

3. Stamp the front sentiment in Night of Navy ink onto the 3/4 x 2 Very Vanilla piece.

4. Stamp the inside sentiment (I used the Special Moment Sale A Bration stamp set) in Night of Navy ink onto the center of the 4 x 5 1/4 Very Vanilla piece.

5. To Assemble:

     -  Adhere the 3 3/4 x 5 Very Vanilla piece onto the 4 x 5 1/4 Night of Navy piece.  Then wrap the Linen Thread around both several times and tie a bow.

    - Adhere them both to the card front.

    -Using the Ranunculus Dies and the small label die cut out the front sentiment.  Then adhere it to the 1/2 x 1 1/8 Night of Navy piece.  Add both to the card front just under the Linen Thread!

    -Apply three Brushed Metallic Adhesive-backed dots to the card front as desired. 

    -For the inside of the card adhere the 4 x 5 1/4 Very Vanilla piece that you already stamped. 

There you have it your all done!  Please leave me a comment below and let  me know what you think! I'd love to hear from you!

Dahlia Day Stamping and More

This card is a combination of simple stamping and a little more!  I designed it for my April card class and it was a hit!

I think this Stamp set has been overlooked in the Mini catalog and the Dahlia image stamp is absolutely gorgeous. So I wanted to design a card that the Dahlia stamped image is the star!

I hope you enjoy this card and I'd love to hear what you think so please leave me a comment below!

Intructions:

1.  Using the Dahlia Days stamp set, stamp the following onto one of the 4 x 5 1/4 Basic White pieces. (Note: some of the images will need to be stamped of the edges also I have found it best to start with your largest images down to the smallest image when creating this kind of design)
--- Dahlia's - Fresh Freesia, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight ink.
---Leaves & Fern - Granny Apple Green ink.
---Small Flowers - Flirty Flamingo ink.

2. Wrap ribbon around middle of the piece you just stamped. (Note: I doubled the ribbon so that it would be darker)
---Adhere to card front


3.  Using Stamp N Write markers color in the flower on the Sentiment Label Stamp (Note: You will have to breath on the stamp after coloring to re-moisten the ink before stamping) Also don't forget to color in the line around the label. 
---Stamp onto the 2 x 3 1/2 piece of Basic White

4. Using the Detailed Dahlias Dies cut out the sentiment label.
---Using Dimensionals adhere to the card front straddling over the ribbon.

5.  Using the Dark Daffodil Delight stampin blend color in three Rhinestone Basic Jewels then add to the card front as desired.

6.  Inside of card:
---Using Fresh Freesia ink stamp the large Dahlia in the bottom right hand corner and the sentiment as shown.

Kite Delight & Expressions of Friendship Slim Line Card!

 

So glad you popped in today.  This is one of my first Slim Line cards and I knew exactly which sets I wanted to use to make it.

You see this card brings me memories of spending time at the park with my grandchildren.  My Granddaughter always loves to swing and my Grandson loves to fly kites.  So when I saw these two stamp sets I know I wanted to combine them to form that memory. 

The Slim Line cards are the perfect size to be able to recreate both the swinging and flying kites.
