Dear Doily with Flowers


The Dear Doily stamp set in the 2019 Occasions catalog is a favorite of mine, but I hadn't tried using the flowers yet, so decided I would make a card using them today.

Here are my instructions:

1.     Base of the card is Gorgeous Grape cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Pear Pizzazz cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and inserted into the Layered Leaves TIEF and run through the Big Shot.  Adhere to the front of the card Multipurpose Glue.

3.    Cut Whisper White cardstock at 2-3/4” x 4-1/4”.  Die cut a large doily with the Doily Builder Thinlet Dies from scrap cardstock and layer over Whisper White cardstock.  Holding doily in place as a mask and sponge Gorgeous Grape ink over the doily.  Remove doily.  Layer onto a 3” x 4-1/2” of Gorgeous Grape cardstock.

4.    Using the Stampin’ Markers on the flower stamp (Pear Pizzazz for the leaves and stem; Gorgeous Grape for the flowers).  Huff on them and stamp scrap of Whisper White cardstock.  Die cut three of them out with the Doily Builder Thinlets Dies.

5.    Using Mini Dimensionals adhere over the sponged doily.

6.    Ink up the sentiment with Gorgeous Grape ink and stamp on Whisper White cardstock.  Punch out with the 1-1/4” Circle Punch.  Punch a scallop circle punch from Gorgeous Grape cardstock with the 1-3/8” Scallop Circle Punch.  Layer together with Multipurpose Glue.  Add Dimensionals to the back and adhere to the front of the card.

Heartfelt Blooms with Watercolor Pencils

This card was made with the Sale-a-Bration set "Heartfelt Blooms" which  I earned with a $50 order.  When I first saw this set, I wasn't thrilled with it but the more I played with it, the more I liked it. It is on page 4 of the SAB catalog and it comes in wood or clear mount.  This set when stamped gives a photographic finish, and it also has a patent pending.  I stamped it in Basic Gray and then colored it in with Watercolor Pencils.  Then I used my Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, but a Blender Pen will also work.

Beautiful Day Butterfly

This is another card I made using the Brusho Crystals.  Although, the colors are not as vibrant as the cards I've made so far.  It's a different technique.  First I embossed the butterfly with Gold Embossing Powder and this time used Whisper White cardstock.  I used a palette to paint with the Aqua Painter, so my crystals were watered down but yet I didn't spritz the card with water.  I wanted to keep the colors inside the lines of the butterfly.  So here my instructions on how I made this card:





1.     The base of the card is Marina Mist cardstock cut 4-1/4” x 11 and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is Pear Pizzazz cut at 4-1/4” x 5-1/4” and the third layer is Whisper White cut at 3-3/4” x 5”.
3.    Ink up the butterfly stamp with Versamark ink and stamp onto the Whisper White cardstock towards the top.  Sprinkle with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set with Heat Tool.
4.    Sprinkle Brusho Crystal in each section of the paint palette.  Add water from the Aqua Painter to each section.  Paint the butterfly sections as you wish with the Aqua Painter, cleaning it off between colors.  I used the Moss Green and Prussia Blue for my butterfly.
5.    For the sentiment, ink it up with Archival Basic Black and stamp onto scrap of Pear Pizzazz cardstock.  Use the Paper Snips to create a banner and attach to the bottom of the Whisper White cardstock.
