Love this layered card from Debi Pippin. The Basic Black, Strawberry Slush and Whisper White make such a gorgeous colour combination. A wonderful thing about the Chalk Talk set, it has matching framelits and two of the images work with punches. So easy to get beautiful layers, quick and easy.
Need to add a little pizzazz to your card, try a technique. Most techniques are super easy and the results are so rewarding. This technique is called Stained Glass. Choose your image and stamp it with Versamark onto a piece of Vellum. Cover with Black Embossing powder and heat to melt the powder ( don't overheat as you will warp your vellum). Now colour your image on the back with your Stampin' Write markers. Layer onto a piece of cardstock either Whisper White or Very Vanilla to make your image pop.
Again I used Regarding Dalhias (can you tell it was in the box with my last order!) and I used my Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Markers to colour it in. I also used our Circle Framelits to cut the frame and the sentiment is from Sweet Essentials.
Our Stampin' Write markers have two ends, one brush tip, perfect for colouring or inking up your stamps and a fine end for writing or getting into small areas. A few markers are available singley while most are available in our Colour Family sets.
don't have to be hard to make! I find it funny, lots of layers, easy, single layer-say what! But with a little masking, sponging and layering of stamps, it really can be easy.
See, doesn't really look like a one layer card does it? First I masked the top and bottom of the card and stamped the large butterfly from Papillion Potpourri in Versamark and clear embossed them. Using my sponges, I added some Daffodil Delight ink and stamped on a few more butterflies with the Daffodil Delight ink. Then using En Francais and Pumpkin Pie ink added a bit of words, not really worrying about placement or how much of the stamped image really showed up and then I added some Pumpkin Pie sponging. Now rub the panel with a paper towel to remove any ink off the embossed images and then remove the masking. I then added the sentiment from Happy Day using my Stamp a ma jig to ensure perfect placement. Now I could have just stamped the Pumpkin Pie butterfly on the card, but I wanted it to have a bit of dimension so I stamped it on some scrap Whisper White, punched it out with my Elegant Butterfly punch and attached it with a glue dot. Hmmm, maybe this isn't a one layer card after all!
is one of my favorite Stampin' Up colours. And this year at convention, guess what my Prize Patrol colour was? Yes, Tempting Turquoise! Today I have mixed it with Basic Black and Whisper White creating a very crisp looking card.
This card is very simple, I used images from Regarding Dahlia, and heat embossed them with our White embossing powder. The sentiment is cut out using our Chalk Talk framelits. Now the set does not have layering dies but I simply cut two out of Basic Black and cut one in the middle. I attached the full sidzed piece first allowing 1/8" border at the front tip and then attached the two pieces, one on the top, one on the bottom. Two retired black brads give some added texture.
Not a colour I use much but sometimes getting a new Designer Series Paper pack kinda makes you start to use a colour! And this pack I am Me has some beautiful sheets that you just gotta use with Basic Grey.
130138 You get 2 sheets of each of the 6 double sided designs for $13.50
And the card
Basic Grey absolutely perfect don't you think?
I used the You're My Hero set again and then the Circle Framelits to cut out the circles. Blender Pens and my Smokey Slate and Basic Grey ink pads are used to colour in the card and then Daffodil Delight marker adds just a bit of colour.
into a WOW paper bag with your cardstock and paper trimmer! Ok, maybe a couple stamps and punches too!

I think, make very elegant cards. Just like this card I got in a swap from Brenda Cash. She used the stamp sets, Everything Eleanor for the flourishes and then Beautiful Wings embosslits for the butterflies.But what really makes this card this card pop is the way she highlighted the sentiment from Petite Pairs by using her Big Shot and the Designer Frames embossing folder.
to your packages this Christmas will be a cinch, thanks to a wonderful new die, Gift Box Bigz L Die
129977 $40.95
The die cuts the pieces and with a little sticky strip or some mini glue dots, you make the bow. Now you can make a single bow just like in the above picture or make a single bow with a little added pizzazz
I added a Basic Black scalloped circle under the bow and made a flower using Basic Black and our 7/8" scallop punch and attached them together with one of our Basic Black Glimmer brads.
and what about making a double bow, all you have to do is crank the die through the Big Shot one more time!
This time I used a Faceted button in the center and a large rhinestone in the center. So quick, so easy!
