Softly Sketched

This week I’m using the distinktive set Softly Sketched.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Softly Sketched

 

I used Mossy Meadow and Moody Mauve markers and coloured the stamp. After huffing on it to moisten the ink, I stamped onto a piece of white. 

Next I stamped the sentiment, from Softly Sketched, in Mossy Meadow. Next I matted with Moody Mauve and layered it onto a white cardbase. I used clear Wink of Stella to add some sparkle and to make the grapes look fresh and dewy.

Finally I added a few of the Tinsel Gems from the four pack.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this paper at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.

When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut cardstock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle for a free embellishment plus a card.

Bright and Beautiful DSP

Here is the third card featuring the Bright and Beautiful DSP. This 6 by 6 inch pack of paper is full of great patterns; there are 4 of 12 double sided sheets.

The piece of the Bright and Beautiful DSP was cut to 5 1/2 by 3 3/4 inches. It was matted with Lemon Lime Twist (a returning colour) cut to 5 1/2 by 3 7/8 inches with the excess on the left hand side. This layer was then added to a white card base. As I’ve mentioned before, if you have a Stamparatus, it’s really helpful for lining up two dimensions at the same time.

Next the sentiment from Charming Sentiments was stamped in Lemon Lime Twist and cut using the Stylish Shapes dies. The sentiment was added to the card using dimensionals. Finally I added some Tinsel Gems (four pack) to the card.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this paper at my Facebook Live today at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.

Bright and Beautiful DSP

Here is the second card featuring the Bright and Beautiful DSP.

 

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Bright and Beautiful DSP - Charming Sentiments - Stylish Shapes dies

The piece of the Bright and Beautiful DSP was cut to 5 by 3 3/4 inches. It was matted with Blueberry Bushel (a returning colour) cut to 5 1/8 by 3 7/8 inches. This layer was then added to a white card base.

Next a sentiment from Charming Sentiments was stamped in Blueberry Bushel  and cut using the Stylish Shapes dies. I think that these dies are going to be my new favourite.  The sentiment was added to the card using dimensionals. Finally I added some Tinsel Gems (four pack) to the card.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this paper at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.

Bright and Beautiful DSP

It turns out that I am anaemic despite having really high iron. And that, on top of my thyroid meds being off, along with an antibiotic meant that I was extremely fatigued. Today I had a blood transfusion which should make me feel more normal in a day or so. This is why I haven’t been posting – it took me over a week to make this simple card due to needing rest. But here we go with the first card featuring the Bright and Beautiful DSP.

A 2 by 3 inch piece of the Bright and Beautiful DSP was matted with Bubble Bath – one of the new core colors. Next a sentiment from Charming Sentiments was stamped in versamark and then heat embossed using silver embossing powder onto a Bubble Bath card base. The matted layer was then attached to the card.

Finally some basic rhinestones were added.

Fresh as a Daisy DSP

Here’s another card using the Fresh as a Daisy DSP.

Here’s a simple, clean card using the Fresh as a Daisy DSP here cut into 2 by 3 inches. It was then matted with Wild Wheat cut an 1/8 inch larger rectangle. Holding this in place on the white card base for positioning purposes, the sentiment was stamped in Moody Mauve. The matted piece of DSP was then added to the card.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this paper at my Facebook Live later on at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.
