3. Ink up the balloon string stamp with Blueberry Bushel ink in the left-hand corner at an angle.

Fern & Flora

This was such an easy card to make because the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper really makes the card. It is so beautiful. All I had to add was the label and some embellishments. There are so many beautiful dies I want to use on future cards, but for now I need something simple yet beautiful.

Here are my instructions:

Stamp Set: Fern & Flora

Cardstock: Soft Sea Foam and Moonlit Flora DSP

Ink: Mossy Meadow

Other: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Fern & Flora Dies, Dewdrops Embellishments,

Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals.

1. The base of the card is Soft Sea Foam cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The second layer is the beautiful Moonlit Flora DSP, which doesn’t need much added to it but a few embellishments and a label. It is cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and adhered to the card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

3. Ink up the frame stamp and the sentiment “You’re an Amazing Friend” with Mossy Meadow ink. Die-cut the label out with the Fern & Flora Dies.

4. Add three of the Dewdrops Embellishments.

Scenic Coast - Shadow Stamping

This was a fun card to make. I was challenged by my friend to make a shadow stamping card using the Scenic Coast DSP. These are my instructions:

Stamp Set: Scenic Coast

Cardstock: Blueberry Bushel, Basic White, Scenic Coast DSP

Ink: Blueberry Bushel

Other: Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Stylish Shapes Dies, Scenic Coast Dies, Sunset Sparkle Sequins, Paper Trimmer, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Mini Glue Dots

1. The base of the card is Blueberry Bushel cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The second layer is Basic White cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4”.

3. Cut out 3” x 4” of DSP. Then cut it into 1” x 1” squares, leaving them in the order of the DSP.

4. Cut out 1” x 1” squares of Blueberry Bushel cardstock.

5. Add each 1” square DSP to the 1” Blueberry Bushel cardstock, but offset it.

6. Let dry! Lay them out on the Basic White card before applying with Multipurpose Glue.

7. Then start at the left top, leaving a border of the Basic White cardstock.

8. Take your next one and align it with the first one, leaving space between each one.

9. I stamped the sailboat and seagulls with Blueberry Bushel on Basic White cardstock and then die-cut Blueberry Bushel seagulls with the dies. Glue them together and attach with Mini Glue Dots or Dimensionals.

10. I stamped “Happy Birthday” sentiment on Basic White and die-cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies and attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Balloon Festoon - Arches Pop-Up Card

This is a fun Pop-Up card made with the Everyday Arches. I love these Arch Dies, and I hope they will be around for a long time. The front arch is "Let's Celebrate," and the very back arch, I put "Happy Birthday" and the balloon. I used the Balloon Festoon stamp set to make this card. The Wonderful Stars Puff Stickers were white, but I colored them with the Daffodil Delight Blends. They really make this card.

Here are my directions:

Stamp Set: Balloon Festoon

Cardstock: Secret Sea, Basic White, and Mixed-Up Patterns DSP

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Gray Granite, Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends

Other: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Everyday Arches, Wonderful Stars Puff Stickers,

Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Tear & Tape

1. Cut three Secret Sea Arches using the largest #1, the third largest #3, and the 5^th largest #5. I tried to number my arches, but I just put a black marker on the odd numbers.

2. Next, cut three arches from the Mixed-Up Patterns DSP (Daffodil Delight stripes) using the 2^nd largest #2, the fourth largest #4, and the sixth largest #6. Adhere to the Secret Sea arches with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

3. Lastly, cut a #4 for the Basic White for the front. You can also cut a #1 Basic White for the back of the largest arch to stamp another sentiment, “Happy Birthday,” etc. For the little Basic White, ink up the balloon stamp with Daffodil Delight and stamp in the center of it. Then re-ink the stamps for more partial balloons up above the first balloon. Now, take the dots stamp and ink up each one with Daffodil Delight. Also, take the stars stamp and randomly stamp around the balloons with Daffodil Delight ink. Let Dry! Apply the Mixed-Up Patterns on your card.

4. Ink up the Gray Granite ink, stamp “Let’s Celebrate” across the bottom balloon, and attach to the bottom arch. Add the strings with Gray Granite.

5. For the mechanism to attach your arches for the pop-up part, cut Secret Sea at 3-1/4” x 3-1/4” and score at ¾”, 1-1/2”, 2-1/4”, and 3”. Cut another smaller piece of Secret Sea at 3-1/4” x 2-1/2” and score the same. Adhere Tear & Tape to the smallest section, remove the backing, and adhere it to the other side to form a rectangular box for each. The largest rectangular box adheres first, with the seam is at the back (not showing on the front of the arch) by adhering Tear & Tape to it. Center it at the very bottom, lay it flat, and then adhere the middle arch to the top section using Tear & Tape (not the bottom section). Lay it flat. Now add the last arch to the top section (not the bottom section) with Tear & Tape.

6. Lastly, I colored the white Fluffy Stickers with the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. Add them to your arches. They are self-adhesive.
