WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DIFFERENCE

February 5, 2020

All Occasion, Birthday, Sympathy, Uncategorized

Today’s card features a beautiful greeting from the Timeless Tulips stamp set and some soft and lovely flowers.

I love that greeting, it is perfect for an upcoming birthday! I had previously stamped the flower spray and pulled it out of my UFP tray (unfinished projects) for this card.

It works perfectly with the new CAS(E) this sketch layout.

I chose the softness of So Saffron for the flowers with a little touch of Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. They make a good contrast to the background designer paper from the Perennial Essence pack!

Here’s the full list of products used.

Honey is the key for today’s card. And bees, a busy hive of honey bees!

The Honey Bee bundle(153792) is so sweet(pun intended) and so much fun to create with! Especially when you add the Golden Honey specialty designer paper! You can see it peeking through the honeycombs and it is a Free choice from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue – a win-win for the bees!

Where did I get the idea for this card? From The Paper Players sketch of course.

Here’s the list of products used. And if you would like, purchase the Honey Bee bundle and then choose the Golden Honey designer paper to complete your bee hive.

TULIPS MAKE ME HAPPY

Tulips, in my opinion, are one of the happiest flowers because they announce spring! Spring is a couple of months away for us so I started my own happy arrival of spring with this card!

This was created with the Timeless Tulips Bundle(153793) and the “coming to you soon” Pleased As Punch designer paper! Each strip was cut to 1/4″ wide and glued down with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Once they were all in place, I used Paper Snips to trim the ends.

This card also uses the new CAS(E) this sketch layout(you might remember yesterday’s card here).

Here’s the short list of products used.

Timeless Tulips Bundle (English) [153793] $42.25	Whisper White 8-1/2″ X 11″ Thick Cardstock [140272] $11.25	Whisper White 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock [100730] $13.25	Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper [153558] $15.75

Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals [144108] $5.50	Mini Glue Dots [103683] $7.25	Stamparatus [146276] $67.00	Take Your Pick [144107] $14.00

So cute – I just couldn’t resist playing along with The Paper Players Fashion Fun challenge this week.

Hi, I’m back with the Honey Bee bundle again! Because a little bee-enfused sunshine and happiness seems like a good way to end this week!

There are so many beautiful designs in the Golden Honey Specialty designer paper and they just have to be shown off! I matched up the honeycomb design with a little piece done in Pineapple Punch behind the hive. Just drag the ink pad across a piece of whisper white cardstock and the die does the rest! The flowers were coloured “direct to stamp” with Call Me Clover and Pineapple Punch Stampin’ Write Markers.

Hello and welcome to you! I just can’t stop using the Forever Blossoms bundle – it’s so very beautiful especially with the matching designer paper!

Just look at those beautiful flowers on that piece of designer paper! So I pulled the Pool Party from the background and stamped several blooms with the Pool Party ink and added the leaves stamped with the Silvery Shimmer Delicata ink(it’s retiring as of tomorrow). The dies that match the Forever Blossoms stamp set make it so easy to cut out those pretty blooms.

Along the left edge, in the background it a piece of braided border made using the new Braided Border Punch that’s in the 2020 Occasions Mini Catalogue. Make sure to check it out on page 29!

CHERISH EVERY MOMENT

On this first day of 2020 I encourage you to cherish every moment of every day! We’re starting a new decade – do you have goals that you want to achieve? My goals are to cherish every moment and learn and grow from them!

So I made this card that will sit prominently to remind me of those goals!

I used a piece of the beautiful Parisian Blossoms Specialty designer paper for the background and the matching Parisian Flourish 3D embossing folder for the vellum cardstock! All that was needed to finish it off was that beautiful sentiment and a tiny flower bud.

Following along with the layout from Freshly Made Sketches was perfect for showcasing that lovely paper!

I enjoy attending Cynthia’s card and scrapbook classes. Her studio is comfortable and bright. I really like the colour combinations she uses. She is very organized and does the prep work allowing you to concentrate on the techniques. She is very flexible, even if you want to make some changes to make the project “your own”. I highly recommend Cynthia as a demonstrator!
