Stamping with the STARS #415 Christmas in July: Darling Details

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts415.  This week we're happy to share Christmas In July with you.

415
When I saw today's theme, I knew I'd have to get creative with pattern paper.  So after looking over the choices, I settled on the Let's Go Fishing Designer Series Paper.  I know...you don't think of Christmas when you look at it.  But, there is a check pattern that I thought I could alter to work for Christmas.  I LOVE the way it turned out.

I also selected a Bundle that doesn't scream Christmas either.  But when I got my first look at the new Darling Details Bundle, in my mind I saw pine needles (though, they may be leaf veins, but I'm going with a pine bough) - which made me thing of Christmas.  See details and tips below...

 

How'd She DO That? Darling Details Christmas Card card

  • Stamps:  Darling Details Bundle (includes dies), Very Best Occasions.
  • Paper:
    • Cherry Cobbler (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base score & fold at 4-1/4”)
    • Very Vanilla (4" x 5-1/4", scraps for stamping/die cutting flowers/leaves)
    • Let's Go Fishing Designer Series Paper (1-1/2" x 5-1/4")
  • Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow
  • Stampin' Write Markers: Cherry Cobbler (Regals), Mossy Meadow (Neutrals)

DOstamping Tip - alter pattern paper using Stampin’ Write Markers from Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #stampinup

DOstamping Tips:

  • On Very Vanilla panel,
    • stamp sentiment first.  Let dry. 
    • add Wink of Stella Glitter to leaves and pine bough. 
    • Use Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Write Marker (fine point end) to add color to berries and "draw" three berries below pine bough.
  • To alter the Let's Go Fishing Designer Series Paper:
    • use a ruler and marker to draw lines to create a plaid look.
    • be sure to clean your ruler between colors.
    • adhere altered paper to stamped panel.
  • On Very Vanilla scrap(s):
    • with Cherry Cobbler ink, stamp two flower outlines & solid images (stamp-off for one solid image).
    • with Mossy Meadow ink, stamp two pine boughs & solid leaf images (stamp-off solid image for both), and two sprigs
    • die cut all images.
    • use Cherry Cobbler marker to draw berries onto the ends of the sprigs.
    • arrange and adhere die cuts to card using Mini Glue Dots and Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • Tie a bow into gold trim and adhere with a Mini Glue Dot.
  • Attach gold pearls where desired.

Didn't this turn out great?!  I'm quite pleased with the result.  I may have to make a few of these for the special people in my life.

 

I will be demonstrating the Darling Details Bundle at the Stamp Share For Leaders Creative Connection Event tomorrow.  We were selected for one of Stampin' Up!'s 35 in 35 events celebrating their 35th Anniversary.  We're fortunate to have Sara Douglas (CEO) and Logan Sutherland (VP People & Culture) attend.  I have 12 team members attending, plus more watching it virtually.  It should be lots of fun!

 

Be sure to watch my blog in the coming days, as I'll be sharing all of the lovely projects I created for this event.   Be sure to add the Darling Details Bundle to your shopping cart today.  Cuz, you're gonna fall in love with this bundle!

Thank you for choosing to shop with me!

Enjoy~Dawn O

It's been a sparse blogging month for me, and here's why.  My family is dealing with aging parents, whom we finally got moved into an Assistant Living place.  Along with moving them...lots of time was spent packing, cleaning, paperwork, etc.  The heavy lifting is now behind us, just some follow up paperwork and new routines for everyone.  I hope to be back to "normal" posting next month.  

Onto my cute This Birthday Piggy Bundle card.

Stampin’ Up! Hello Harvest Bundle watercolor card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping  #howdSheDOthat #birthday #WatercolorStampinUp p

How'd She DO That? Hello Harvest Watercolor Floral Spray card

  • Stamps/Bundles: Hello Harvest Bundle (includes Rustic Pumpkin Dies)
  • Paper:
    • Basic White Thick (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
    • Basic White (3-3/4" x 5") 
    • Basic Black (3-7/8" x 5-1/8")
  • Ink:  Tuxedo Black Memento
  • Other:  Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Watercolor Pencils, Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2, Blender Pens, Stampin' Seal & Stampin' Dimensionals

 

Stampin’ Up! Hello Harvest Bundle watercolor card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping  #howdSheDOthat #birthday #WatercolorStampinUp c

DOstamping Tips:

  • Stamp the floral spray image twice (be sure to stamp the second one upside down).  Leave a little space between them.
  • Color with Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen.
    • daisy = Crushed Curry and Early Espresso
    • 3-petal flower = Cajun Craze
    • other flower = Cherry Cobbler
    • greenery = Old Olive
  • Don't over blend or the paper will "pill"
  • Take a closer look at the sentiment.  By die cutting an extra Basic Black banner, you'll get a lovely matted look to your sentiment.

I love the way this card turned out.  The images were small enough for me to have a successful watercolor experience.  Watercoloring is not normally  in my wheelhouse.  But with practice I have gotten better and I do love the look.

If you like to watercolor and you like autumn styled bundles, then you'll want to add the Hello Harvest Bundle to your shopping cart. 

  • When your order totals $50 or more, during Sale-a-Bration you'll get to select a free product!  NOTE:  choose Sale-a-Bration free items during the check out process. 
  • By adding an additional $15 to your order - total $65 or more, you'll qualify for my monthly Host Code Gift (scroll down for more information)

Stamping with the Stars #DOswts390 Sketch Inspiration #dostamperSTARS #dostampinup #stampinup

 

This week I was creating a card for my DOstamping@Home Club using the Sale-a-Bration Wonderful World Designer Series Paper (FREE with $100 order).  I had some scraps left, which was perfect for this month's sketch.

All I needed to do was to select a stamp set.  I picked the Sale-a-Bration Stylish Sketches stamp set (free with $50 order).  I like the styling of this set.  One of the images seemed to be some sort of fruit tree.  After a little digging around on the internet, I discovered it's a fig tree.  Perfect match for the paper I chose.

My card features the following Sale-a-Bration products:

Sale-a-Bration Special Moments card by Dawn Olchefske Stamping with the STARS challenge #DOswts379 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #stampinup p

As you can probably tell, I just love all of the "daffodil" products...including the Daffodil Daydreams Bundle.  These products make me happy!

Sale-a-Bration Special Moments card by Dawn Olchefske Stamping with the STARS challenge #DOswts379 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #stampinup c

DOstamping Tips:

  • For the Very Vanilla main panel, stamp the floral spray first - near the left edge (from Daffodil Daydreams stamp set).  Then stamp the sentiment from the must-have Special Moments FREE Sale-a-Bration stamp set.
  • Stamp the floral spray again on Very Vanilla scrap and die cut.  Then fussy cut out the two larger daffodils - I left them together.
  • Color the floral spray and extra daffodils using the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush with Flirty Flamingo, Pale Papaya, Pear Pizzazz inks, by swiping ink onto clear blocks.  I added Flirty Flamingo first, then filled in with Pale Papaya.  (Note: in the photo you can't see just how gorgeous the shine is on the floral spray - but trust me, it is!  Your recipient will be wowed!)
  • Adhere the extra daffodils onto the main panel, lining them up with the stamped image, using Stampin' Dimensionals. 
  • Adhere stamped panel to card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • Don't you think the Brushed Brass Butterfly is the perfect little touch?

If you like daffodils, floral spray and such, then you'll want to love the Daffodil Daydreams Bundle (save 10% with Daffodil Dies).  When your shopping cart reaches,$50, $100 or $150, you can select the FREE and Beautiful...Sale-a-Bration Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper &/or the must-have Special Moments stamp set

NOTE:  when choosing Sale-a-Bration items, you'll need to click on "check out" to select your free items.

Thank you for choosing to shop with me!

Enjoy~Dawn O

Your Creative Connection #YCC114: Strong & Beautiful

Welcome to another Your Creative Connection tour, #YCC114.  Our theme today is: Shades of Black & White

Your Creative Connection - a bi-monthly tour showcasing Stampin' Up! product

For today's challenge, I reached for the NEW Magic in This Night Designer Series Paper.  The pattern paper was designed for Halloween, but there are several patterns that could be used all-year long!  Take a look...

Stampin' Up! Strong & Beautiful with Magic in the Night Designer Series Paper card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade #stamping #papercrafting  #YCC114 #YourCreativeConnection

How'd She DO That? Strong & Beautiful card

  • StampsStrong & Beautiful
  • Paper
    • Basic Gray (4-1/4" x 11" card base)
    • Blackberry Bliss (4" x 5-1/4" and scrap for banner shape die from Tasteful Labels)
    • Smoky Slate (scrap for Stitched So Sweetly Die for the sentiment)
    • Magic in this Night Designer Series Paper (two of 2" x 3")
  • Ink:  Blackberry Bliss, Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
  • Other:  Tasteful Labels Dies, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Stampin' Seal, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals

Stampin' Up! Strong & Beautiful with Magic in the Night Designer Series Paper card by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade #stamping #papercrafting  #YCC114 #YourCreativeConnection

If you have seen this paper, you might be wondering where the coloring on the flowers came from.  I took some liberties with the challenge of black and white, and added Blackberry Bliss (ha...it has black in it's name, right?!)  See my tips for more information.


DOstamping Tips:

  • For coloring the Magic in This Night Designer Series Paper , I used a Blackberry Bliss ink pad and the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.  
    • While the pad is closed - squeeze the lid into the pad and then open to find a "pool" of ink in the lid.
    • Pick up some ink with the Glitter Brush to add color and glitter to the flowers at the same time.
    • This card looks amazing in real life!
  • The Blackberry Bliss banner ends come from a single banner die from the Tasteful Labels Dies - just cut in half.

I have to admit, without this challenge I would have never made a card like this.  And I'm SO happy with the results.  Give this challenge a try for yourself.

If you like Black & White cards, then you'll definitely want to add the Magic in This Night Designer Series Paper to your collection

Thanks for stopping by.  Be sure to check out more creativity at our next stop on Your Creative Connection tour, Barbara Meyer.
