RainyDay Stamper

And it's Friday

and it's a Long weekend and the end of the month,how great it that.  Last day of showcasing the Bird Ballad DSP and Free as a Bird stamp set.  Today I have cased the catalogue, 

See the tin on the lower right this is what I cased to make a card

Same DSP, Same image, same layout and sentiment I did change the button for a punched flower.  Don't you love the Stitched Nested Label, they are so perfect complete or cut down. Well have a wonderful weekend,  have a wonderful Canada Day and stamp a little.

Happy Stamping,

And another DSP heavy card

Again just one single stamp, this time from the Hugs from Shelli Paper Pumpkin kit and the DSP and we have a beautiful card.

This time I fussy cut the bird out of one of the sheets along with the flowers and they really are  easy to cut out.  The branch is from the Seasonal Layers framelits and is perfect for the bird set.  

Happy Stamping,

Bird Ballad DSP

I said that it was beautiful and just look how the DSP can make your card making so easy.  Just stamp a sentiment  and let the DSP do all the work

Those beautiful birds are one of the sheets, I simply used my 2 1/2" circle punch to punch the DSP then my Layering Circles to frame the birds.  Super easy card but I hope you will agree, a very nice one.

Happy Stamping,

 

Day Two, more Balmy Blue.  Remember when we had Bashful Blue as a colour, I loved it and was sad when it retired, well Balmy Blue has certainly filled that hole for me.

Check out that gorgeous background, I told you this paper pack had gorgeous paper.  The bird is the other main image from the set, then there are flowers and leaves and six sentiments. Again I chose my simple Hello and used a little bit of our Whisper White Flax ribbon for some texture.  Easy card 

Happy Stamping,

Free as a bird

Happy Monday!  This week is all about Birds- Free as a Bird stamp set and the coordinating Designer Series Paper.

First off there is a whole suite of products for this set or you can bundle or you can just get bits and pieces, it is all up to you.  Now the stamp set you can get by itself or as a bundle with those incredible Stitched Nested Dies.  I got the bundle as I really wanted both things and hey, saving 10% as a bundle let's me buy more stuff!  So here is the bundle

151123 Free as a bird Bundle $70

Then there is the paper, Bird Ballad DSP  149592 $15.75, 24 pieces of 12 x 12 double sided.

The paper is gorgeous and I am using it every card this week and the funny thing is, the paper I am using today, is something that I really wasn't drawn to but I used it on three different cards this week.   So here is the first card

This set stamp is a perfect colouring set, the images are super quick to colour.  I used the Balmy Blue , Soft Suede, Old Olive and Pineapple Punch duos, so darks and lights for all then the Pool Party light to go around the entire image adding a bit of background colour.  With the DSP, it's all keys but it works.  The sentiment I think is perfect, a simple hello, I wake up every morning to the birds chirping saying hello!

Happy Stamping,

It's Friday

So the last day of my New Wonder cards.   Today I have used the same layout as Monday, the same Fancy fold only different colours and my favourite fairy.  Lovely Lipstick and Pineapple Punch are perfect for a birthday card.

See what I mean about thinking before your attach your fairy, if I had just used our Whisper White you would see all the colours bleeding through, not that lovely!

And inside lots of room for writing!

Well, I hope that you love New Wonders set as much as I do, and I get to use it till next June so you will be seeing these little fairies pop up regularly on my blog.  Next week, I think I will be focusing on the Free as a Bird set, shall we do an entire week of it too?  Ok you twisted my arm! Have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to save a little time for you, and stamp a little!  I know I will

Happy Friday and see you Monday!

Love this sentiment

To me, it means hope and enjoy your life.  Just like a book, each day we are presented with new experiences to capture and enjoy.  

No fussy cutting here, just a simple stamp and colour.  I do love to colour and our blends really make colouring easy.  Lovely Lipstick for the dress, Granny Apple Green leaves, and Crumb Cake pages.   And did you notice,  Light Pool Party around the entire image to make it really pop off the page.

 

I used Crumb Cake as my base and then an additional layer of Crumb Cake and then my Whisper White image panel.

Happy Stamping,

Happy Stamping,

And the third Fairy

Is very different than the other two, it is just her head in a circle but I again cut it out.Doesn't it look like she is peering out from inside the card?

This time I used Night of Navy as my main colour and the sentiment from Rotted in Nature.  Like that background?  That is a sheet of long retired DSP that is white with embossing on it and you just brayer on whatever colour you want, quite a striking background I think!  Again I used our lovely Notecards, these are such good value, you get 20 Whisper White Thick or Very Vanilla with envelopes for only $9.50.  A pack of those and you have the start of a quick card, add a couple of ink pads, a stamp set maybe some DSP and you are off.

Happy Stamping,

My favourite fairy

from the New Wonder set is this one.  The set comes with lots of sentiments each in a font that looks like  someone could lave written them, not me of course, as my penmanship isn't really the best but this little fairy's certainly is!

The DSP is from the Magnolia Lane pack and then I ran some Whisper White through my Big Shot and the Nested Labels die to use as the focal point attaching it to one side rather than the center and chopping it flush with the side of the Whisper White Notecard. I used our new Rococo Rose Blends for her dress., I think I am going to love this new In Colour, it is certainly pretty.  The pen is Mossy Meadow, Hair Daffodil Delight, Petal Pink for the face, hands and feet and then a little Wink of Stella for the wings.  A few Epoxy dots finish off the card.

Happy Stamping,

Happy Monday

Hope you had a wonderful weekend.  I did, but didn't sleep well so had to have a nap on Saturday afterwork and then Sunday morning as well.  Too much going on in the head this weekend for sleep.!  And yes, I got my order so playing in my stamp room was on my mind.  This week I am only going to show you cards made with the fabulous New Wonders hostess set.  I am in love with this set.  First up a fancy fold-just check out the new products on this card.  DSP, Framelits and two stamp sets!

For this card I used the Bird Ballad DSP pulling my colours from it, Petal Pink and Pool Party.  I used a branch stamp from the Free as a Bird set stamping with Versamark for a subtle tone on tone.  The little fairy is fussy cut but it is an easy one to cut out with our super sharp snips.  I used the new Stitched Nested Label dies, I will say these are a set that you are going to need, they really are nice, they are the new style, I think a little thicker metal , so easy to remove from the paper.  Now when you open the card

You get to see the beautiful paper from the Bird Ballad pack, this pack is stunning but you also get to see the back of the fairy!  If you have Blends you know that the ink bleeds right through our regular Whisper White so you need to use the Thick or use the think and stick another pice of Whisper White underneath and cut out both layers at one time. Now flip open again and 

Yes, that is Incredible Like you stamp set but I was making this card for a dear friend who I am so glad that we are friends.    Isn't this a pretty card?  Tomorrow, I'll show you a different fairy.

Happy Stamping,
