Product of the Week: Caring Coneflower and Sunflower Season

 This week's Stamp Simply Product of the Week includes their Caring Coneflower stamp and die sets. This set are my absolute floral favorites at Stamp Simply, with the Sunflower Season stamps and dies following close behind. Both are so lovely!

I made a simple card with a pieced background this week. Two shades of pink stripes along with white accents.

The coneflower was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then colored with Copic Sketch markers before die cutting with the Caring Coneflower die. The coneflower sentiment was stamped with some Tim Holtz Distress Ink, then die cut with the die from the Caring Coneflower die set. Fun!

Be sure to check out these fab sets as the sale runs through June 27.

Have a great weekend!

A Godly Man

I'm back after a trip away to relatives; so glad to be home and able to create again! I wanted to make a Father's Day card for my dear dad who is such a spiritual example to all of us.

This is my favorite masculine stamp set and die from Stamp Simply: A Godly Man stamp set and matching A Godly Man's Buck steel die.  Both can be purchased as a bundle, or individually.

This card was quick to put together. I began with a background of lush green decorator paper: Craft Consortium's Ink Drop Organic. It's layered over a black cardstock base.

The buck was stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink, then die cut with the matching die. The Proverbs Bible verse from A Godly Man stamp set was also stamped with the Versafine Clair Nocturne ink, then die cut with Spellbinder Classic Oval dies.

Quick and easy to mail, if needed.

Proverbs 31 Woman

Hello! With thoughts of Mother's Day this weekend, I've made up a card that features Stamp Simply's Mini Scripty Backgrounds Set One clear stamp set that includes a portion of Proverbs 31. 

As mentioned on the Stamp Simply catalog site: "These stamps were designed as small background stamps to add a vintage flair to your projects and as such some have irregular edges, some words only partially printed, a tattered look in areas, etc, to give the appearance of old, torn papers or pages."

I stamped the verses directly onto the designer paper with Versamark ink, then heat embossed it with white embossing powder.

The background paper is Craft Consortium's Bloom and Wild decorator paper. The florals in the pad are so beautiful. 

The butterfly die is Sizzix Tim Holtz Butterfly Brushtrokes die. I die cut the butterfly from watercolor cardstock, then colored it with Kuretake Zig Brush Markers. 

The border trim is May Art's  3/8" Mini Scroll Trim, also available at Stamp Simply.

And...Stamp Simply is having a Mother's Day sale for a couple more days! Be certain to use the code when ordering.

Vintage Car

Our challenge for this month's stamping group was to make a masculine card. I've had this Spellbinder Classic Car Etched die set and had not made it up yet, so it was fun to put together. There are quite a few tiny pieces, but I was able to get there in the end.

The background is layered cardstock, with the top most layer being die cut with Stampin' Up's retired Dots and Spots die...so fun to use!

The sentiment is from Stamp Simply's All Occasions Sentiments Set Two, stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and die cut with Spellbinder circle dies.

 

Perfect for the fellow or gal who love a vintage ride!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Mother Goose

 

Welcome! I'm part of a fun Instagram hop today...My Favorite Hop...and the challenge is to take inspiration from a nursery rhyme.

I recently purchased this sweet The Greetery Silly Goose die set and was happy to use it for this shaped card. 

I began by die cutting the goose and floral pieces, then colored them with Copic Sketch markers. They are mounted on a Echo Park Dots and Stripes Gingham decorator paper panel, die cut with a retired Spellbinder oval die.

The gingham panel was mounted on a card base, cut with a larger Spellbinder Oval die to make a shaped card.

A May Art's Bakers Twine bow finishes the design. Fun!

Jesus

 

Back again today: this time with a card that I've made up for the Friends in Faith Instagram hop. This week's inspiration is Jesus, Light of the World. 

My card is quite simple...I die cut a Simon Says Stamp Radiant Burst Wafer Die from a piece of pure white cardstock. I blended three different Ranger Distress Ink colors on the white base card. The die cut is simply glued to the top allowing the colors to peek through.

The JESUS sentiment is from Stamp Simply's Jesus clear stamp set, stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

If you have a chance, check out the Friends in Faith IG hop to gain tons of inspiration! It posts 5 PM on Friday afternoons.

Have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for stopping by!

America the Beautiful

Hello! Here with a patriotic card today using two Stamp Simply stamp sets, along with a matching flag die: Stamp Simply Patriotic Sentiments (on sale now!!!) along with Stamp Simply's Red White and Blue clear stamp and die sets.

I began by stamping the flag from the Red White and Blue stamp set and coloring it with Copic sketch markers before die cutting it with the Red White and Blue Flag die. I then mounted it on a black cardbase.

Next up--cutting a window in a piece of Craft Consortium Beach Hut decorator paper using a Spellbinder Square die. I stamped a sentiment from the Patriotic Sentiments below the window directly onto the decorator paper, embossing it with black embossing powder.

I then stamped an additional sentiment from the Patriotic Sentiments set onto vellum, also heat embossing it with black emboss powder.

The vellum was mounted between the top panel window and the flag die cut.

A couple of black brads finish the design.

As mentioned before, the Patriotic Sentiments set is one of two sets featured as Product of the Week over at Stamp Simply. Be sure to go and check them out!
