Copper Petals & Paisleys



There are two sheets in the Petals & Paisleys Designer Series Paper pack that are designed with copper foil and I used one of them for today's card.  So, I thought I would also emboss my sentiment with Copper Embossing Powder to give my Thanksgiving Card a simple, but elegant look.

I also placed some Copper Metallic Thread under my sentiment for a bit more embellishment, and used a Banner Framelit to cut it out.

What I Love



"What I Love" is the name of the stamp set I used for today's card.  It is one of the sets you can still choose for FREE if you spend $50 on any Stampin' Up! products.  But, don't wait too long, Sale-a-bration ends March 31, 2016.

My card base of Whisper White Card Stock was layered with another cut layer of Whisper White that was stamped using Versa Mark Ink and then heat embossed with White Embossing Powder.  When this was finished, to make the flowers stand out I sponged Bermuda Bay Ink onto that layer.  I stamped a few additional flowers and my sentiment in Bermuda Bay Ink as well, and added some Bermuda Bay 1/8" Stitched Ribbon to finish the card.

Holiday Vellum Christmas Card



The Holidays Fancy Foil Designer Vellum has three designs, all perfect for your holiday cards and projects.  I just added a layer of the snowflake vellum to a Smoky Slate Card Stock base to create my background.  

For my sentiment, I embossed the  Merry Christmas with Silver Embossing Powder, and then tied a bow made with White 3/8" Glitter Ribbon.  I used dimensionals on the back of my sentiment, and glue dots on the back of my ribbon.

If you don't want to emboss your sentiment, you could stamp it with  Cherry Cobbler or Real Red ink to make it stand out and add more holiday color.

Christmas in July


The ladies who come to my monthly classes like to get an early start on their Christmas cards so I start preparing a few each month starting in July.  Here is one of the samples I prepared.
 
In the picture below you can really see the shine and sparkle. 
 

 
To get my shimmery card, I first stamped my images and then covered the whole layer with Versa Mark Ink.  I then sprinkled Iridescent Ice over that and set it with my Heat Tool.  This is a really easy technique and really adds some sparkle to your card. 


The following were used:

Something Lacy


 
The "Something Lacy" large background stamp is so pretty, and after you stamp it onto your card stock it almost looks like Designer Series Paper.  Such pretty images that you can just stamp using your favorite ink that I did in the card above, or to really add some texture and shine try heat embossing the images like I did in the card below. 
 
 
For this card I stamped my image using Versa Mark ink onto a piece of Vellum, then heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder.  I took my Pink Pirouette marker and just colored in a few of the flower , added some coordinating ribbon and my sentiment to finish my wedding card. 
 
Tip:  When I stamp using a large background stamp I always put my Stampin' Pierce Mat underneath my paper to be stamped to get even coverage. 


The following products were used to make both cards:
