Thoughts & Prayers sympathy card

You never know when a sympathy card may be need for a family member or friend. I unfortunately had to make this card for a friend recently but it could be used as a general 'thinking of you' card too just to let someone know you care.



I sponged the centre focal point with a combination of Stampin' Up!'s Island Indigo, Lost Lagoon and Mint Macaron inks.  To get the sponging straight, I masked off the sides with post-it-notes.  I then used the Thoughts and Prayers stamp set and stamped the tree and sentiment in Early Espresso.  I used the now retired Scallop Trim punch to create the delicate Early Espresso scallop border and added a candy dot in each corner.  The centrepiece was then layered on top of Bohemian Designer Series Paper and an Early Espresso card base.

Celebrating 17

My niece turned 17 recently and I made this card featuring one of her favourite colours, purple (aka Stampin' Up!'s Elegant Eggplant).


I stamped the Stampin' Up! Perfect Peacock stamp in Elegant Eggplant onto Whisper White card stock.  I then coloured the peacock using a Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Wisteria Wonder and Perfect Plum colour scheme. I used the retired Blendabilities to colour this card, but the same effect can be obtained using the Stampin' Write Markers or even water colouring using the inkpads.  The 'Celebrate' sentiment was also stamped using Bermuda Bay ink.  I die cut the sentiment banner and number 17 from the Little Numbers thinlets using Elegant Eggplant card stock.  A splash of Bermuda Bay sequins attached using Dazzling Details glitter adhesive glue added a bit of sparkle to the card.  The Perfect Peacock was then layered onto one of the patterns from the Bohemian Designer Series Paper and attached to an Elegant Eggplant card base.

Bohemian Scrapbook Layout

I originally started papercrafting as a scrapbooker and still love making scrapbook layouts.  As soon as I saw the Stampin' Up! Bohemian Designer Series Paper I knew exactly what I wanted to use it for and this simple layout is the result.  I've had to digitally cover the two photos of family members for privacy reasons, but you can still see the design of the page.



I started with a 12x12 Basic Black cardstock base.  I then added the Bohemian DSP to the base.  The main colour scheme is Blackberry Bliss, Rich Razzleberry, Rose Red and Whisper White. I added texture to the layout by using only part of the Striped Scallop thinlet diecut and clustering Petite Petals flowers on some Venetian crochet trim.
