Stampin' Up! Rich Razzleberry Flowering Flourishes

Morning All,

A quick post today to show you another way of using the Stampin' Up! Flowering Flourishes stamp. Here I used a backing paper (non SU) and inked the edges in my favourite Rich Razzleberry ink. I then stamped the flourishes in Basic Black and Rich Razzleberry around the edges.


I finished by adding lettering and the Sassy Salutations Happy Birthday greeting and black gemstone details.

Thanks for looking,
Sarah.

Stampin' Up! Stylish Flowering Flourishes and Christmas Ornament Punch Card.


Hi All!
Here is a Raspberry Ripple, Old Olive and Baked Brown Sugar Christmas card made from the Christmas Ornament Punch from 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter Catalogue! And Flowering Flourishes Stamp from the Main Catalogue.
The Christmas Ornament Punch has a matching stamp set. (Available as a bundle where you can save 15%!!!)

These are the leftovers (as promised) that I punched out from a previous ornament card. I stamped the Flowering Flourish over the card blank and then in the different colours stamped the Flowering Flourishes onto the baubles. I also edged these with the finger sponge daubers to make them "pop". 
A simple Petite Pairs greeting and Old Builder punch heart in the glimmer paper finished the card.

Sarah.

Thanks Mum! with Stampin' Up! Stippled Blossoms

Good Morning All!
Here is a thank you card for my Mum. She does so much for my siblings and I, as mums' do, always putting her "children" first. If she sees something she thinks we will like she will pick it up for us. My sister and I love cooking (as does Mum) and Mum is always picking up recipes from supermarkets. It's the little things that really do mean so much and are so, so appreciated. So I put this card in the post and it was "a lovely surprise"! 
Thanks MUM xx 


So this card is made from the lovely set from the Main Catalogue using the stamp set Stippled Blossoms and the fab Stamp-a-ma-jig tool from Stampin' Up!
My colour choices are from the In Colours : Crisp Cantaloupe, Strawberry Slush, Pistachio Pudding and from the Brights Old Olive. I also used my trusty Script Stamp - En Fracais, the Window Frames and the Typeset Alphabet Bigz die with the Bigshot.

Faux stitching in an Old Olive write marker finish the card .

Rev Up the Fun! in Real Red and Whisper White Wedding Cake - Stampin Up!

Hello Everyone!

Today I bring you the second card I was commissioned to make for Rachel & Paul's Wedding. After a chat about motorbikes I came up with the idea of making a 3 tier cake with a motorbike as the cake decoration.



I embossed some pearlised card for the cake base and used the En Francais stamp for the background in real red, and matted this onto the same coloured cardstock. I cut out the motorbike from the stamp set Rev Up the Fun and punched little hearts which I covered in the dazzling details glue for extra sparkle. ❤ 

Congrats again Rachel and Paul, you both looked beautiful in the photos :)

Thanks for looking,
Sarah.

Stampin' Up! Christmas Ornament Punch Card

  Hi All!
 
Here is a Raspberry Ripple and Basic Grey Christmas card made from the Christmas Ornament Punch  from 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter Catalogue! I have also used the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack.  
 
The Christmas Ornament Punch has a matching stamp set. (Available as a bundle where you can save 15%!!!)
 
I punched the ornament shape out of a card blank and stamped the greeting (from the sassy salutations set)  I put the DSP on the inside of the card blank and added stamped and punched flowers with gems. I hand drew bows for the end ornaments and tied a basic grey ribbon bow for the centre one.

Check back next week to see what I made using the punched leftovers!!!

Thanks for looking,
Sarah.

Baby Naming Day Card

Morning All, My latest commission was to make a card for a Baby Naming Day. Doing some research into cards for a naming day I found there was no set style or design.
First I embossed the bottom edge of my pink cardstock with the Bigshot and the Delicate Designs embossing folder. As I was asked to feature the baby's name so I decided to cut the name using the Bigshot and Typeset Alphabet Bigz dies. I stamped the background with the Swallowtail Stampin' Up stamp onto whisper white cardstock with the congratulations greeting from the Sassy Salutations stamp set. 



I matted and layered the cardstock and added finishing touched with dazzling details glitter adhesive and a punched out butterfly from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set. ❤

Sarah.
