Cutest Crew Baby Card for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design Project is a theme: baby. It was especially fun to make this card today, because we just found out Lily is going to be a big sister! We’d love to see your baby cards. Please share with social media, and use the tag #gdp535.

 

I began by cutting the adorable, Cutest Crew birds in four colors of Subtle Cardstock: Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath, Soft Sea Foam, and Pool Party. Then, I glued them to Thick Basic White Cardstock, cut with the 1″ square, Stylish Shapes die.

Cutest Crew Square for Baby

 

Thinking, small and square, I cut a square card base from Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 4 1/4″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I cut Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 4″, and decorated the corners with Basic White Cardstock, cut with a Beautifully Celebrated Die, and glued it to the card base. Don’t you love this die-cut?  

 

Next, I stamped “Welcome little one,” in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used a Perennial Postage Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. The sentiment is from Storybook Friends, a retired Stamp Set. To complete the card, I attached the birds with Dimensionals, and added three Rainbow Dots in matching colors.

Sneak Peek Paradise Garden

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

Look at this fun sketch, from Freshly Made Sketches, that inspired today’s card. 

 

To create the center oval, I used the largest Everyday Arches Die to cut an arch from cardstock. Then, I placed the cut-out on Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/2″, and used Blending Brushes to apply two colors of ink: Pool Party on top, and Granny Apple Green on the bottom. This layer was glued to a Soft Sea Foam card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Paradise Garden Thank You

 

Next. I stamped “thank you,” in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. This large sentiment is from the Paradise Garden Bundle, and cut with its large banner die. Don’t you love it?

 

After attaching the banner with Dimensionals, I stamped the leaves and flowers, and cut them with dies, both from the Paradise Garden Bundle. Four colors of ink were used; Pretty In Pink, Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Granny Apple Green.

 

The leaves were glued flat, except for a few leaves placed on top of the banner, and the flowers were attached with Dimensionals. As a final touch I added thee, Rainbow Dots.

Lovely Arrangements for Stampin’ Fancy Friday

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

The Stampin’ Fancy Friday Design Team is a group of past and continuing Artisans, bringing our followers a fancy monthly challenge for inspiration. This month it’s a color challenge, “Shades of Purple.”

 

I was excited to begin the challenge with a new bundle, Lovely Arrangements. First, I stamped two flowers in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used their dies for cutting. Then, I colored them with Stampin’ Blends in Highland Heather and Petunia Pop. The leaves were cut from Garden Green Cardstock.

Lovely in Purple

 

Next, I cut Basic White Cardstock, 2 3/4″ X 3 1/4″, and used a Lovely Arrangements Die to make “peek-a-boo” holes in it. Then, I layered it on Gorgeous Grape Cardstock, 1/8″ larger, giving it a 1/16″ border.

 

The background is Fresh Freesia Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/2″, given texture with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder. This layer was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

 

After attaching the flowers and leaves to the top layer, I created the sentiment from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle. I stamped “you are so lovely” in Gorgeous Grape Ink,  used its die for cutting, and glued it to the top flower. To complete my design, I added three Purple Fine Shimmer Gems.

Endless Love Fun Fold with Sneak Peeks

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This month, we’re speaking the Language of Love! If you’re craving inspiration and a good excuse to break out your favorite craft supplies, you’re in the right place. This hop is all about sharing the love through handmade cards and paper crafts, and the Pals can’t wait to inspire you with beautiful creations made using Stampin’ Up! products.

For this month’s blog hop, I’m giving you some sneak peeks, plus Endless Love, on a “fun fold” design. The Endless Love Bundle is current, and the new products will be available March 3.

By Su Mohr for Pals Blog Hop; Click aromasandart.com to go to my website for details! Featuring: Endless Love, Paradise Garden, Garden Poetry DSP, Help Me Grow Dies; #endlesslove #helpmegrow #gardenpoetry #valentine #hearts #funfold #cardmaking #handmadecards #handcrafted #stampinup

Fun Fold Heart

 

I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I cut two inches off the front, and embossed the 2 1/4″ front flap with the new, Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder.

 

Next, I used an Endless Love Die to cut three hearts. Two were cut from the new, Garden Poetry Designer Paper, and one from Basic White Cardstock. I love the watercolor patterns in the Garden Poetry Designer Paper.

 

I glued half of a DSP heart to the front flap, and backed it with a second heart, lining up the holes. After gluing Garden Party DSP (4″ X 5 1/4″) to the inside, I lined up the white heart, and glued it in place. Then, I used Endless Love dies to cut “XOXO” from DSP, and glued them in place.

 

To complete the front, I chose the sentiment, “today and always,” from the Endless Love Stamp Set. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink and used an Endless Love Die for cutting. Then, I used a new, Help Me Grow Die to cut a branch from Basic White Cardstock, and glued it as if it’s growing through the hole in the sentiment label. As a final touch, I  attached three, Iridescent Pearls.

 

Keep the inspiration going! Follow the lineup below to hop from blog to blog and soak up every lovely, heart-filled idea along the way. And don’t stop there! Next month we’re celebrating all things Birthday Celebrations, and it’s going to be a party you won’t want to miss. Be sure to mark your calendar and hop along with us!

Easter Basket Bunny for Global Design Project

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

This week’s Global Design Project challenge is a sketch, perfect for the Easter Basket bunny’s background. I began with the bunny and his carrot, stamping them in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used their Easter Basket Dies for cutting, and added a bit of color with Stampin’ Blends in three colors: Petal Pink, Pumpkin Pie, and Granny Apple Green.

Easter Bunny in an Arch

 

The background was created with the second largest Everyday Arches Die and Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper. After cutting, it was glued to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. I added vines to the arch by using a Beautiful Pumpkin Die to cut Old Olive Cardstock.

 

“Happy Easter” is from the Easter Basket Stamp Set. I stamped it in Crumb Cake Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Fragrant Layers Die for cutting. I used the same die to make a cut from Basic Beige Cardstock for the frame, and glued them in place. The last step was attaching the Easter bunny and carrot with Dimensionals.

 

Here is the sketch. Now it’s your turn to have fun using it as inspiration. Don’t forget to share your creation on social media, and tag it #gdp534.

A Rainbow Of Thanks Sneak Peek

To see photos correctly, please click “read on blog.”

Continuing to play with Online Exclusives, I couldn’t wait to show you A Rainbow Of Thanks Stamp Set. It’s perfect for a single layer card, “just stamps, ink, and paper!” Our new Positioning Tool made it easy to configure the stamps on Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″. First, I stamped the brushes, roller and sentiment, “A rainbow of thanks,” in Secret Sea Ink.

Just stamps, ink and paper

 

Next, I stamped the paint strips in three colors of ink: Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, and Coastal Cabana. The stamp set has stamps to color the paint brushes, roller, splash dots, and swirl around the sentiment. After gluing my art piece to a Secret Sea card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, my clean & simple card was complete.

 

I thought you’d like to see the stamp set.

 

I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
