Two For Tuesday: Lovely Friends cards

Both cards feature the new Lovely Friends Photopolymer Bundle [145319] (save 10%)!

Create cards with an interactive flair! The die in this bundle makes a pop up wreath when the recipient opens the card. The stamp images compliment the dies with lots of phrases and greetings for the outside of your card. You'll find yourself reaching for the set often!

Lovely Friends Quick & Easy Card

Stamp leaves image (Lovely Friends stamp set) with Old Olive ink (one is full strength and one is stamped-off) on 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack. Stamp hearts with Fresh Fig ink. Then adhere to folded 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" Very Vanilla card base.
Stamp greeting & brackets with Fresh Fig ink on Very Vanilla "label" die cut image from Lovely Laurel Thinlits Dies.

Buy these two coordinating products and save 10%.

145318 Bundle & Save 10% with Lovely Friends Stamp Set

At first glance - I completely fell in love with the stamp set, Lovely Friends. and knew I'd be reaching for it a lot when I'm looking for ways to express myself. But I have to admit, I didn't think I needed a pop-up interactive wreath from the Lovely Laurel Thinlits Dies. However, I gave it another look and found that most of the dies I do NEED in my collection. The wreath doesn't have to be a pop up - it makes for great foliage (as shown in the step-up card). Plus the label shape is a must-have! Be sure to add it to your shopping cart today so you can start creating lovely cards right away!

In Color Week: Lemon Lime Twist with Happy Birthday Gorgeous!

June 06, 2017

For today's 2017-2019 In Color feature, I'm sharing a Two For Tuesday project using Lemon Lime Twist. I'm seeing this becoming a very popular color. It pairs nicely with a lot of colors.

With the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set, you'll get balloons and flowers, and messages, oh my! Create the perfect card or gift packaging for any birthday you care to celebrate.

Happy Birthday Gorgeous - quick & cute card

Stamp greeting repeatedly on 1/2" x 5-1/4" strip of Lemon Lime Twist with Wisteria Wonder ink. Adhere to 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock.
Die cut 1-7/8" circle (Layering Circle Framelits) from scrap paper/cardstock to use as a template. Place circle on white panel and lightly trace with pencil. Remove circle.
Stamp images (Happy Birthday Gorgeous) stamp set as follows:
- Happy Birthday = Wisteria Wonder ink (inside circle)
- Stamp flowers so they slightly cross over the edge of the "penciled" circle
  - 5-Petal Flowers = Coral Calypso ink (stamp outline image first, then stamp off for solid image)
  - Roses = Wisteria Wonder ink (stamp outline image first, then stamp off for solid image)
  - Leaves = Lemon Lime Twist
- Erase pencil marks when dry
Adhere completed panel to folded 11" x 4-1/4" Wisteria Wonder card base

Happy Birthday Gorgeous - stepped up card

Die cut 1-7/8" circle (Layering Circle Framelits) from scrap paper/cardstock to use as a template. Place circle on 4" x 5-1/4"panel and lightly trace with pencil. Remove circle.
Stamp images (Happy Birthday Gorgeous) stamp set as follows:
- Stamp flowers so they slightly cross over the edge of the "penciled" circle
  - 5-Petal Flowers = Coral Calypso ink (stamp outline image first, then stamp off for solid image)
  - Roses = Wisteria Wonder ink (stamp outline image first, then stamp off for solid image)
  - Leaves = Lemon Lime Twist
  - NOTE: you may find, like I did...that you get some little "dots" from your stamping. To make them look like they should be there, use matching Stampin' Write Markers to add more dots here & there.
- Erase pencil marks when dry
Adhere completed panel to folded 11" x 4-1/4" Wisteria Wonder card base. Adhere additional 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock to inside of card.
Die cut 1-7/8" circle window from card front, and trace lightly with a pencil the window through to the inside of card.
On the inside of the card...stamp "Happy Birthday" with Wisteria Wonder ink (inside circle). Stamp flower and leaves just outside the circle area. Erase circle.
Wrap Lemon Lime Twist 1/4" Ombre Ribbon around right side of window and tie in a bow.
Stamp label image with Basic Gray ink and greeting with Coral Calypso ink. Cut with Classic Label Punch and adhere with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
Place Subtles Enamel Shapes in a visual triangle.

The Lemon Lime Twist 1/4" Ombre ribbon is the perfect accent for this card!

Aren't they both beautiful? Whether you have a little or a lot of time to create a card, either of these Happy Birthday Gorgeous cards would do the trick! This stamp set is also available in a bundle with the Happy Birthday Thinlit. Stop by tomorrow for fun example using the Thinlit! In the meantime, add the bundle to your shopping list, as I know you're gonna want it!

Dads & Grads: One Wild Ride (QC & Step-Up!)

May 10, 2017

Before I get started, here's a little housekeeping...

I've been hearing from several of my readers that you haven't been receiving my Subscription Emails in awhile. While looking into it, we discovered that they have been removed from the subscription list, but don't recall doing that. I've contacted my subscription service, Feedblitz and we don't have a clear answer.

At this point, I recommend doing the following:

Re-subscribe here: http://www.feedblitz.com/f/?Sub=949853
Add [email protected] to your approved sender list (email contact list)

I hope these two suggestions help. If you continue to have problems, please contact me directly at [email protected]. I'd be happy to contact Feedblitz to resolve your situation.

Thanks~Dawn O

Today I'm sharing a couple of cards using the adventurous stamp set, One Wild Ride. One is quick & easy and the other is a "step-up" version.

Choosing gifts for motorcyclist enthusiasts is easy: riding pants, goggles, bandanas—done! But motorcycle-related cards are so much harder to find...not any longer! The One Wild Ride stamp set is perfect for the hog-riders in your life (or the wanna be hog-rider). You’ll never have to search for the right card again because now you can make it!

One Wild Ride - Quick & Easy card

Stamp "background" image (One Wild Ride stamp set) with Basic Gray image on 4" x 5-1/2" piece of Smoky Slate. Adhere to folded 11" x 4-1/2" Whisper White card base.
Adhere 3/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Brights Designer Series Paper Pack - Pumpkin Pie to card front (as this is already sold out, you could substitute the Pumpkin Pie pattern from the Fiesta Birthday DSP)
Stamp "badge" twice on scraps of Whisper White. Once with Basic Gray and cut with Best Badge punch. Again with Pumpkin Pie. Use scissors to trim out "journey" and cut banner shape on both ends. Adhere onto gray badge. Then adhere to card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

One Wild Ride - Step up card

Stamp "badge" image several times with Basic Gray image on 4" x 5-1/2" piece of Smoky Slate. Adhere to folded 11" x 4-1/2" Whisper White card base.
Stamp "background" image with Smokey Slate on 2-3/8" Designer Series Paper Stitched Shape Circle. Adhere to card.
Stamp "badge" image with Versamark Ink on scrap of Basic Gray cardstock. Cover with White Stampin' Emboss Powder and melt with Heat Tool. cut with Best Badge punch.
Stamp badge image again with Pumpkin Pie on scrap of Whisper White cardstock.. Use scissors to trim out "journey" and cut banner shape on both ends. Adhere onto gray badge.
Wrap Black Metallic Thread around 4 fingers, 4 times, and pull off and attach to back of badge with Stampin' Dimensionals. Then attach to card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Adhere Metallics Sequins with Glue Dots. Attach Brights Enamel Shape.

I think Dad will like either card, don't you think? As I'm looking at these cards, they could even be for someone who's graduating too.

Enjoy~Dawn O
