Rose garden card

The Stampin' Up! Rose Garden thinlets make card making so easy.

 
 
To create this card, I layered some Stampin' Up! Melon Mambo card stock onto a thick Whisper White card base.  I die cut the rose using the Rose Garden thinlets from another smaller piece of standard Whisper White card stock.  I glued down both the diecut and the offcut piece of Whisper White together onto the card to provide the contrast between the pink and white.  Some 1/8" Silver ribbon, sentiment from Circle of Spring stamp set and a couple of Rhinestones completes the card.  You could easily change the sentiment to turn this card into a birthday or other occasion card. Quick & easy, but so effective.

Wonderful Washi with a Cherry on Top

I often receive questions about how to use washi tape.  Stampin' Up! have brought out some very versatile washi tapes in the current catalogue and I thought I'd put together some projects featuring the Cherry on Top washi tape range.

 
 
All the items in the picture above were made using washi tape as a key feature on each project. 
  • Washi tape can be used instead of designer series/patterned paper - just run a strip(s) of tape straight or at angles across some cardstock.
  • Layer strips of washi tape on cardstock and use your dies and BigShot to cut out shapes.  I've done this for the balloon, bow on the gift bag and flag/banner ends on both the gift bag and 'happy birthday' card.
  • Washi tape can be used on more than just paper - I've covered the metal lid of the bottle holding the product sign with washi tape too.
 
Here are some detailed photos:
 
Angled or straight - washi tape adds interest to your projects.
 
 
Die cut layered washi tape for decorative embellishments like the balloons on these cards.

Run straight strips of washi tape at the top and bottom of a card to add a splash of colour.
 
I hope this encourages you to have some fun with washi tape.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Wishes

The new Stampin' Up! Occasions catalogue is full of inspiration and fantastic products.  For my first card in 2015, I couldn't wait to try out the new Spring Flowers embossing folder, Butterflies Thinlits Dies and the Butterfly Basics stamp set.


To create this card I made an Island Indigo cardstock card base.  Using the BigShot, I embossed an extra piece of Island Indigo cardstock with the new Spring Flowers Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and layered this onto the card base.  I also diecut a Top Note piece in Whisper White.  The Butterfly diecut was stamped using the I Love Lace background stamp.  The sentiment and border are both from the Butterfly Basic stamp set.  Some silver ribbon and rhinestones added the finishing touches to this card.

The key products used on this card have been listed below - just click on the picture and it will take you to my online store where the product can be purchased.  From now until 31 March 2015 is also a terrific time to order as you can receive a free Sale-A-Bration item for every $90 order (excluding shipping).  Click here to learn how to receive free items during Sale-A-Bration:
