Project Landon Part 2 ~ Brag Books

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

Following on from Monday's post, when I shared the birth announcement cards I created for the arrival of my great-nephew Landon Ryan, today I'm sharing the first part of the project to have been created; brag books.

Although only one is shown here, in a VERY image heavy post, there are indeed 13 that were created... One for each of Landon's 4 sisters, Brianna, Makayla, Chloe and Charissa; parents Tosha and Josh; his cousin Tristan; Uncles John and Daniel; Aunt Alicia; grandparents Beth and Wayne and also one for ME too...

Cover to cover...

Last but not least, the box lid detail...

The books were created over several months, just like the little man who's arrival they celebrate :)

Altered Journal

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The project I'm sharing with you today is in fact one of 3 journals that I've stamped with a couple of my all-time favorite stamps from Stampin' Up!, Blended Bloom and Gorgeous Grunge. I did them months ago, long before the Labels Collection die and Skinny Mini Alphabet stamps retired, so I'm sorry it's taken me so long to share them with you!

Gorgeous Grungy Painted Petals Remix

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The card I'm sharing with you today is a remix of the one I shared with you this time last week, Gorgeous Grungy Painted Petals. What? I created that card for the challenge over at TGIF and their next challenge asks us to mashup two of their May challenges and remix them. I had only entered one, so I've chosen their sketch challenge, TGIFC02, as the base for my remixed card.

Here's the sketch that I used...

And a reminder of the inspiration from TGIFC04...

Card: Pistachio Pudding, Crisp Cantaloupe (both now retired) and Whisper White
Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Melon Mambo and Old Olive
Stamp sets: Painted Petals (retired) and Gorgeous Grunge
Tools: Labels Collection Framelits (retired)
Adhesive: Stampin' Dimensionals

Happy Easter

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The card I'm sharing with you today is my latest DT offering for 613 Avenue Create, where this week's optional twist is, perhaps unsurprisingly, Easter. I've teamed the sponsor image from Aurora Wings with a couple of my favorite stamp sets from Stampin' Up!, Gorgeous Grunge and Indescribable Gift. I've used a favorite style too...

Yep, it's a twisted easel :)

Card: Pear Pizzazz (10" x 5" for the base and 5" square) and Whisper White (two 4 7/8" squares and extra for printing and stamping)
Inks: Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive
Markers: Wild Wasabi and Daffodil Delight Blendabilities (now sadly retired)
Sponsor Image: Easter Lily from Aurora Wings
Stamp sets: Gorgeous Grunge and Indescribable Gift (sentiments)
Tools: Labels Collection Framelits, Stamping Sponges and Stampin' Dimensionals

Create a twisted easel card base from Pear Pizzazz card by following the instructions in this post.
Stamp the spatter image from Gorgeous Grunge onto both Whisper White squares in Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive inks and attach one to the inside of the easel.
Stamp the "Sharing in the joy..." sentiment from the stamp set in Old Olive ink onto a snippet of Whisper White. Die cut with the smallest Labels Collection die.
On the other, stamp the "Happy Easter" sentiment from Indescribable Gift in the lower left corner and add the panel to the easel topper.
Print the image twice and color one and a few flowers from the other with Blendabilities. Fussy cut the flowers from the second image.
Cut the complete image with the largest Labels Collection die and sponge Pear Pizzazz ink around the edges of that and the sentiment.
Attach the printed panel to the topper and pop the cut flowers onto the image with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Complete the card by adding the sentiment stopper inside with a couple dimensionals.

Watercolor Moon Lake

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

I've always loved to watercolor, and the Aqua Painters from Stampin' Up make it something that even a complete beginner can do. The gorgeous Moon Lake stamp set is perfect for painting and that's what I've done for the focal point of today's quick and easy card...

Card: Watercolor paper and Very Vanilla
Ink: Jet Black StazOn, Tempting Turquoise, Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz and Early Espresso (sentiment)
Stamp Set: Moon Lake
Tools: Aqua Painters, Labels Collection Framelits

Stamp the image with Jet Black StazOn onto Watercolor Paper and die cut with one of the Labels Collection Framelits dies.
Using the stamp pad lids as palettes for the ink (or reinker), paint the image with Aqua Painters, varying the amount of water used for the lighter areas. Allow to dry for a few minutes
While the image is drying, cut and fold your card base from Very Vanilla card. Stamp sentiment in Early Espresso ink on the bottom of the card
Pop image onto the card with Stampin' Dimensionals

The card really is quick to create. It took me just less than 10 minutes, although the wetter the image the longer it will take to dry

Embossed Vellum Blended Bloom

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

As I write this post, the sun is finally shining and I've got the window open. It's not that warm and there's still not many signs of spring around, but it's a start!

Following on from yesterday's watercolor card using the beautiful Blended Bloom stamp set from Stampin' Up! today I've used the stamp on our Vellum and heat embossed it...

Look closely and you'll see there IS a sentiment on the smaller die cut. It's one of my favorites from the Painted Petals stamp set, "friends become our chosen family". I photographed the card a few times and this was the best I could get.

Card: Whisper White (base and panel), Very Vanilla and Vellum
Ink: Versamark
Stamp sets: Blended Bloom and Painted Petals
Tools and embellishments: White Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat tool, Decorative Dots EF, Labels Collection framelits dies, Basics Pearls, Stampin' Dimensionals and Mini Glue Dots

Stamp the Blended Bloom in Versamark ink onto Vellum, cover with White embossing powder and heat. When cool fussy cut
Stamp the sentiment from Painted Petals onto Very Vanilla, cover with embossing powder and heat. Once cool cut with the smallest Labels Collection framelit die.
Cut the third die from the set and emboss with the Decorative Dots EF.
Attach the Whisper White panel and the two die cuts to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Attach the bloom to the card with a single Mini Glue dot in the center and cover with Basics Pearls. Add a few more pearls to the corners to complete the design

Oh, Baby

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

I've loved sharing the cute new baby cards with you this week and now they've received the card that I shared on Monday, I can tell you that the birth of a friend's granddaughter, Elowen Freya, was the inspiration for all the cards this week. That and wishing that the season of new arrivals, spring, would finally appear, but so far no luck on THAT one, here at least!

To close out "baby week", today's card is another for a baby boy, created with another of the sentiments from the adorable Baby We've Grown stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Card: Whisper White
Ink: Pool Party and Tempting Turquoise
Stamp set: Baby We've Grown
Tools and embellishments: Labels Collection Framelits, Dazzling Details, Stamping Sponges and Stampin' Dimensionals

Stamp the bunny image from the Baby We've Grown stamp set randomly in Pool Party ink over a panel of Whisper White card cut slightly smaller than the base (I cut mine ¼" smaller). Sponge the same ink onto the edges and attach to base card.
Stamp the Oh Baby sentiment from the set in the same ink onto a snippet of Whisper White. Cut using the second smallest Labels Collection Die. Sponge Tempting Turquoise ink onto the edges and pop up onto the base with Stampin' Dimensionals
To add a bit of sparkle, add Dazzling Details onto the bunnies bow ties and the binky.

Now it's that time of the week when I ask if you have a favorite from the week's creations. Click on the images to be taken to the post in another tab...

Once again, I'm not sure if I can choose a favorite. Can you?

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

So far this week I've shared a sweet girl, cute boy and sweet baby cards, but I think it's always a great idea to have a few different designs in your stash, so today I'm bringing you another baby girl card using the adorable shoes image from the Baby We've Grown stamp set from Stampin' Up! and teaming it with a sentiment from another stamp set in the annual catalog, Celebrate Baby...

Stamp the small heart from Best Day Ever randomly in Blushing Bride ink over the front of a folded Whisper White card
Stamp the shoe image from Baby We've Grown onto a snippet of Whisper White and the sentiment from Celebrate Baby in the same ink onto more Whisper White

Sweet Girl

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

For the last several weeks I've featured creations made with items from either Sale-A-Bration or the Occasions catalog, but for today's card and indeed for this week, I've gone back into the annual catalog and have used the adorable Baby We've Grown stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Card: Whisper White (folded base and snippets for stamping) and Crisp Cantaloupe
Inks: Crisp Cantaloupe and Strawberry Slush
Markers: Crisp Cantaloupe Stampin' Write (from the soon to retire 2013-2015 In Color set)
Stamp Sets: Baby We've Grown and Petite Petals
Tools and embellishments: Decorative Dots EF, Labels Collection Framelits, Petite Petals Punch, Basic Pearls and Stampin' Dimensionals

Cut and fold a piece of Whisper White card to form the base card.
Cut a piece of Crisp Cantaloupe card slightly smaller for a mat (I cut mine ¼" smaller). Using the second smallest Labels Collection die, cut an aperture in the Crisp Cantaloupe, saving the cut piece for another project. Emboss the card with the Decorative Dots EF.
Place the mat onto the card base as a guide (don't adhere yet). Stamp the sweet girl image from Baby We've Grown in Strawberry Slush ink onto the card base through the aperture and also onto a snippet of Whisper White. Adhere the Crisp Cantaloupe layer to the base.
Fussy cut the second pair of shoes and color the bows with the Crisp Cantaloupe Stampin' Write marker. Pop up onto those on the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
Stamp three flowers from the Petite Petals stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe and punch with the coordinating punch. Add to the corner of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
To complete the card and add a touch of bling, add tiny Basic Pearls to the buckle and bows of the shoes and the flower centers.

Show Stopper With Love Is Kindness

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

It's been a really special week around here, not only has it been Love Is Kindness week, it's also been fancy fold week too and it's ending with a real SHOW STOPPER... A double twisted easel card.

Sound complicated? Maybe, but it's easy. The difficulty lies in trying to photograph it, so this is an image heavy and indeed long post to rightly do it justice.

The closed card might look a bit strange with the elements like this...

But all becomes clear when the first side is opened...

It's all in the twist...

View from above...

Such a special card deserves coordinating a box...

Card: Pistachio Pudding (8" x 8", two 4" squares, 9 3/4" x 5" 3/4"), Whisper White (for stamping) Best Year Ever DSP (9 13/16" x 5 13/16") and Very Vanilla (snippet)
Ink: Memento Black, Pistachio Pudding and Blushing Bride
Markers: Pink Pirouette and Wild Wasabi Blendies
Stamp Sets: Love Is Kindness, Trust God, Butterfly Basics (happy birthday) and Gorgeous Grunge
Tools and embellishments: Stampin' Trimmer, Labels Collection Franelits, Stamping Sponges, Basics Pearls, Stampin' Dimensionals and punch of choice (for notches in box lid)

Score the 8" square piece of Pistachio Pudding at 4". Turn the card on the Stampin' Trimmer and cut at 4" down to the score line (alternately mark the 4" point and cut using scissors). Score each of the new 4" squares diagonally from the center cut out to the corner and fold.
Stamp the tulip image from the Love Is Kindness stamp set in Memento Black ink onto Whisper White and the snippet of Very Vanilla (only the newspaper wrap is needed). Color the complete image with Pink Pirouette and Wild Wasabi Blendies
Stamp the sentiment from Trust God and the birthday from Butterfly Basics in Memento Black onto Whisper White.
Cut the sentiments, the colored image and an additional one for the box lid using the third Labels Collection framelit (from the smallest). Sponge Blushing Bride ink onto all four panels. Cut the Very Vanilla newspaper wrap and attach to image.
Stamp the splatter from Gorgeous Grunge in Pistachio Pudding ink onto the two 4" squares of Pistachio Pudding card and the inside of the base.
Using Stampin' Dimensionals attach the die cuts to the squares.
To check positioning of the stamped panels, pick the card base up, hold the stamped square onto it and action the fold.
Apply adhesive to the inner triangles, and attach the image and sentiment panels ROTATED 90° as shown
Open both sides of the easel and attach the sentiment stopper with more Stampin' Dimensionals. Complete the card with Basics Pearls in each corner
To create the box, score both card and DSP pieces on all sides at 3/4", fold. Using punch of choice cut notches into the sides of the DSP. Cut the tabs and adhere

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

For the last couple weeks I've kept my thank you card for Friday, but this week I thought I'd change it up a bit and post that card yesterday. The post title is a BIT of a giveaway of today's theme LOL. Yep, Congrats. What for? For making it to Friday for one thing and if you're celebrating anything else, well, congrats for that too!

Hmmm, maybe I don't really have a single favorite! I have great friends who ARE the best. I spent some time with one of those friends on Monday, who made my day. Wednesday's card was created to mark a  very special day and milestone. I love the colors and simplicity of Thursday's and I'm so thankful for all of you. Today's could be to congratulate me on the milestone from Wednesday. Can YOU choose a favorite?

Word Art Week ~ To A Great Friend

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

I love creating cards or a project where the sentiment is the star and for the last few weeks I've had Word Art Wednesday posts. When I looked at the stamp sets that I'd not used, I thought that two of them, both FREE from Sale-A-Bration if you spend over ­£45, would combine really well to take it up a level and so this week I bring you Word Art Week!

For today's card I've used two of the sentiments from the Simply Wonderful stamp set from Stampin' Up and combined it with one of my favorite techniques and a new favorite die set too...

Card: Whisper White
Ink: Blushing Bride and Versamark
Stamp set: Simply Wonderful
Tools: Labels Collection Framelits, White Stampin Emboss Powder, Corner Rounder, Stamping Sponges

Stamp the "to a great friend" sentiment from Simply Wondeful in Versamark onto Whisper White card and heat emboss with White EP. Leave to cool.
Cut and score the base card and round the corners. Cut the next layer ¼" smaller than the base, round the corners and ink the edges with Blushing Bride ink. Stamp the flower from the set in the corners. Attach panel to base card.
Cut the embossed piece with one of the Labels Collection framelits and sponge with Blushing Bride ink. Stamp the "you're the best" in Blushing Bride ink. Pop panel onto the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Website Revamp & Blendies On Vellum With Indescribable Gift

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

Before we get to today's card, I want to ask what you think of my website revamp? It took a lot of work yesterday and there may still be one or two tweaks needed, but I'm really happy with the look and hope you like it too! If you subscribe to my posts by email, please click on the title to see the post on the site.

Now on to today's card...

I absolutely LOVE the Indescribable Gift stamp set from Stampin' Up! and there are so many different ways it can be used. Today I'm sharing another, on the last day of Indescribable Gift week...

Card: Whisper White (folded card base and snippet for stamping) and Vellum (cut panel 1/4 inch smaller than card front)
Ink; Jet Black Stazon and Pool Party
Markers: Crumb Cake blendies, Bermuda Bay blendies and Wild Wasabi blendies
Stamp set: Indescribable Gift
Tools: Labels Collection Framelits, Stamping Sponges, Mini Glue Dots and Stampin' Dimensionals

Stamp the image onto Vellum with Jet Black Stazon and leave to dry
Cut a window in the card front with one of the Labels Collection Framelits. Keep the cut out for another project.
Flip the Vellum over and color the image with the blendies. The colors will be lighter because of the vellum, so use the darker shades if desired.
Open the card and place the image over the window to check positioning, trim vellum if necessary. Attach to inside of card using Mini Glue Dots.
Stamp sentiment in Pool Party onto Whisper White and cut with smallest die. Pop up onto card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I REALLY struggling to choose a favorite from this week's cards. Here's a recap (click the pic to go to the post for details)...
