Timeless Charm Bundle & Unbounded Love

I do not think I am alone when I say it is confusing to keep up with current and retired products from Stampin' Up!  Some are on-line only, some are in the catalog only, and some products are in the catalog and on-line. So, I truly did not realize that the Timeless Charm Bundle was retired when I made this card. 

The good news, any stamp set with a flower would work great for this technique. 

So much fun, so little time.

Recipe:

• The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Pecan Pie cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
• The 5 1/4 x 4 layer of Peach Pie is embossed with the Dashing Design folder.
• The flower from Timeless Charm is stamped on a 4 1/2 x 3 Basic White layer and colored with Peach Pie and Old Olive Blends.
• I sponged a 4 1/8 x 2 1/2 piece of Basic White with Calypso Coral ink and glued it to a 4 1/4 x 2 5/8 piece of Calypso Coral.  
• I used the flower die from the Timeless Charm dies to cut out the flower aligning the die over the stamped image.
• I stamped the words from Unbounded Love with Tuxedo Memento Black ink and added a Brushed Brass Butterfly.
• I added Dimensionals to this combination and adhered it to the 4 1/2 x 3 Basic White piece lining the cutout with the stamped flower.
• All done and remember to decorate your envelope.

 So Sincere Stamp Set & Layered Florals Embossing Folder

My main focus for this card is the Layered Florals embossing folder.  So easy and works with many color combinations.

Recipe:

• The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Shy Shamrock cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
• The layer of Shaded Spruce is 5 1/4 x 4.
• The 5 x 3 3/4 Soft Seafoam layer is embossed with the Layered Florals 3D folder.  Then I used a Sponge Dauber & Shaded Spruce ink to "color" the debossed side of the Soft Seafoam cardstock.
• I adhered this layer to the Shaded Spruce, and this combination to the Shy Shamrock base.
• I cut out a 2 3/4 Night of Navy circle with a Spotlight on Nature die.
• I stamped words from So Sincere in Night of Navy on Basic White and punched it out a 2 3/8" circle punch.  I added this to the Night of Navy circle with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and added all to the card front with dimensionals.
• To finish off my card, I added three Ombre Matte Decorative Dots
• All done and remember to decorate your envelope.

 A blast from the past for my July 2024 classes-
Peaceful Boughs Bundle

I offer Creative Card-Making classes in my home each month and starting with July I add a Christmas card as part of the array of five cards.

I used the retired Peaceful Boughs Bundle, Soft Suede and Shaded Spruce cardstock and ink for this card.

I saw Karen Ksenzakovic's card on her blog, Creative Stamping Designs, post of August 31, 2020, and I changed it a little, you know to make it my own. 

Recipe:

• The 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 base of Soft Suede cardstock is scored at 4 1/4.  
• The layers of Shaded Spruce are: 5 3/8 x 4 1/8; 3 1/4 x 3 1/4; and 3 3/4 x 2.
• The layers of Very Vanilla are: 5 1/4 x 3 7/8; 3 1/8 x 3 1/8; and 3 5/8 x 1 7/8.
• Two sprigs are cut with the Beautiful Boughs dies and Soft Suede cardstock.
• All done and remember to decorate your envelope.

I am offering this card at my July 9th and 13th, 2024.
