Perfectly Pears 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’s challenge is “Online Exclusives.” I’m enamoured with the new, Perfectly Pears Bundle, and Painterly Pears Designer Paper, and couldn’t wait to share it with you!

 

I began today’s card with one of the ten, Perfectly Pears Dies, to cut a branch from Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used Old Olive and Medium Deep (#159461) Stampin’ Blends for coloring. The three blossoms were also cut with Perfectly Pears Dies.

Perfectly Pears

 

Next, I used a Perfectly Pears Die to cut the pears from Painterly Pears Designer Paper. This paper is sensational, and I love that some of the dies cut images from it. 

 

The pears and branch were attached, with Dimensionals, to Basic White Cardstock, cut with the third largest Textured Notes Die. And, I stamped “A good friend is a gift,” from the Perfectly Pears Stamp Set, in Mossy Meadow Ink. This layer was attached, with Dimensionals, to Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest Textured Notes Die.

 

Prior to gluing the layers to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, I embossed the larger layer with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder. This card gives you just a taste of the Painterly Pears Suite; I think you’ll want ALL of it!

Heat Embossed Birds

 

I began with Thoughtful Journey Designer Paper, 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″, and trimmed the top and bottom with two, different, Fancy Borders Dies. FYI: I just saw that Thoughtful Journey Designer Paper is on the “low inventory” list.

 

Next, I stamped the birds in Versamark in the center of the pattern, sprinkled them with White Embossing Powder, and set them with the Heat Tool. This layer was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

The sentiment, “You’re wonderful. You’re loved, You matter,” is from the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set. I stamped it in Mossy Meadow Ink on the designer paper (cut from the bottom), and used a Wonderful Thoughts Die for cutting. After cutting, I layered it for thickness, and glued it to the card front.

 

To complete the design, I added three, white, Neutral Matte Dots.

Spring Corners for Global Design Project

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

For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE the talented, Mikaela Titheridge. I’m using Mikaela’s pastel colors for a “clean & simple” birthday card.

 

I began by creating a stencil with a Stylish Shapes Die (second, largest circle) and Vellum Cardstock. Holding the stencil in place with my hand, I applied the colors (Balmy Blue, Lemon Lolly, and Pretty In Pink) to Basic White Cardstock.

Pastel Circles Birthday

 

Next, I used the same Textured Notes Die, as Mikaela, to cut the stenciled cardstock.

 

Before attaching my circles to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, I stamped balloons and “happy birthday” in Memento Black Ink.  These stamps are in the Spring Corners Stamp Set. To complete my “clean & simple” birthday card, I added three, pretty, Rainbow Dots in matching pastel colors.

Just A Note with Floral Impressions

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

I’ve always loved notebook paper, so the Just A Note Bundle was a “must have!” Isn’t the notebook paper adorable? I created it with a Just A Note Die, Basic White Cardstock, and Pool Party Ink for the lines. The sentiment, “Just a note to let you know you’re on my mind,” is from the Mixed Labels Stamp Set, stamped in Early Espresso Ink.

Just a note

 

Next, I fussy cut flowers and leaves from Floral Impressions Designer Paper. They were attached to the notebook paper with Dimensionals and paperclips. The paperclips were cut with a Just A Note Die from Textured Metallic Specialty Paper. Aren’t they realistic?

 

The background is Floral Impressions Designer Paper, cut with the largest Textured Notes Die. This was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. I’m loving this Just A Note Bundle!

Painterly Pears You Are Lovely

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

For today’s card, I couldn’t help but continue to show you the gorgeous, Painterly Pears Designer Paper, 4″ X 5 1/4″. This was glued to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I added a large sentiment, “lovely,” with Sweet Blooms Dies. I cut the word from Basic Beige Cardstock, backed with Early Espresso Cardstock, to match the stems in the DSP, and attached it with tiny pieces of Dimensionals. This takes some patience, but you could glue it flat.

“You are lovely”

 

To complete the sentiment, I stamped “you are” in Early Espresso Ink on Basic Beige Cardstock, used a Perfectly Pears Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals. “You are” is from the More Than Autumn Stamp Set, and I was thrilled that it fit perfectly within this die. 

 

As a final touch, I adhered three, Low-Profile Sparkle Dots.

Coneflower Celebration Bundle

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

You have to love the 3D petals of this large, coneflower! The Coneflower Celebration Bundle is a favorite in the new 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. Today’s card is just one of many possibilities. I began with Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, given texture with the Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder.

Coneflower Celebration Bundle

 

Prior to embossing, I used a Coneflowers Die to cut two flowers from the Basic White Cardstock layer. Next, I glued the layer to a Blackberry Bliss card base, 81/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Then, I used the same die to cut two flowers from Beautiful Bokeh Designer Paper, and glued them in the “holes.” I left the ends of the petals free, for dimension, and a “peek-a-boo” of the Blackberry Bliss beneath them.

 

The flower centers were cut from Thoughtful Journey Designer Paper, using another Coneflowers Die, and glued in place. The colors in this designer paper are wonderful!

 

“You made my day” is from the Coneflower Celebrations Stamp Set, stamped in Blackberry Ink. The last detail was adding three, Rainbow Dots in coordinating colors.
