Sweet Citrus bundle

As you know, I was focused on the Sweet Citrus bundle last week and here’s the third card which I didn’t get a chance to post yesterday.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Sweet Citrus bundle - Sweet Citrus - Sweet Citrus Hybrid Embossing Folder

 

I used five colours: Granny Apple Green, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody and Rich Razzleberry. Using my stamparatus I stamped the outline of the fruits full strength and then added the interior after stamping off once.  Next I added the die to the Sweet Citrus Hybrid Embossing Folder and cut out four different pieces of fruit in each colour in one go. So these were actually “leftovers” from the previous card (and I still have others)

This time I chose the whole fruit and arranged them in a row, popping up a couple with dimensionals. The white layer was then added to a Flirty Flamingo card base. The sentiment from the Sweet Citrus set was stamped onto a piece of scrap in Flirty Flamingo and then trimmed as much as possible. This meant that more of the fruit was showing and not hidden behind the sentiment.

I made this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live yesterday at 11am. You can 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.

Regency Park DSP

Here’s the third card using the Regency Park DSP and adding to my collection of birthday cards.

The Regency Park DSP was cut to 4 by 4 1/4 with the Night of Navy mat cut to 4 1/2 by 4 1/4. Next they were layered together using the Stamparatus to help to line them up. This layer was then added to a Balmy Blue card base.

The sentiment is again from Happiness Abounds was stamped in Night of Navy. After cutting it out with the Stitched Rectangle Dies it was added directly to the card. A few embellishments were added to the card. I used Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels but they aren’t available now – use them if you have them. Otherwise a Night of Navy blend on a Rhinestone Basic Jewel would work perfectly.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live later on today at 11am eastern. 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.

Regency Park DSP

Here’s the second card using the Regency Park DSP and adding to my stash of birthday cards.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Regency Park DSP - Happiness Abounds

 

The Regency Park DSP was cut to 5 1/2 by 3 1/4 with the Sweet Sorbet mat cut to 5 1/2 by 3 1/2. They were layered together leaving a 1/4 inch showing of the Sweet Sorbet  using the Stamparatus for ease of lining them up. This layer was then added to a white card base – again using the Stamparatus to ensure the open side of the card was lined up. If your DSP needs to be a certain way up, make sure that when you add it to the white card base that you’re attaching it upside down.

The sentiment from Happiness Abounds was stamped in Sweet Sorbet and die cut using the Stitched Rectangle Dies and added directly to the card. A few of the 2022-2024 in color Matte Decorative Dots were added to the card.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. 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.

Regency Park DSP

I was going to use the carrots, but the Regency Park DSP calls out to me. It’s a 6 by 6 pack and there are a lot of great patterns.

This is a simple card as usual. The DSP is cut into 2 by3 inches with the Balmy Blue cut to 1/8 ” large to create the mat. Next the sentiment from Happiness Abounds was stamped onto a white card base in Balmy Blue.

The matted DSP was then added to the card and as a finishing touch, a few of the Solid Faceted gems were added.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. 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.
