High Tide

Leave a reply

I’ve had the High Tide set for a while now and it just hasn’t made it to the top of the stack. I can’t explain that – it’s a great set and has some awesome sayings. I decided to use the same layout again and this saying was just the right shape for the card! Do you do that? Sometimes select a sentiment because it fits in the space correctly? It always makes me laugh when I do that.

This uses a large piece of paper from the Delightful Daisy DSP – 5 /14 by 4 inches on a night of navy base. I then made the top pieces – a piece of whisper white which “looked right” – 1 3/4 inches to be precise and stamped the awesome sentiment in more night of navy on one side so that the beautiful crushed curry mini chevron ribbon bow would fit. I also used crushed curry as the matting for the piece of whisper white; despite the yellow in the DSP actually being daffodil delight, it’s been watered down to get the watercolor effect and the actual card stock is just a touch too much in my opinion. Crushed curry works nicely – and of course goes well with the lovely ribbon.

Naturally Eclectic DSP

The Naturally Eclectic DSP is a wondrous mixture of colors that I’d never think to put together, but which I adore. Here we have emerald envy, lemon lime twist and soft sky with whisper white. What a fabulous combination.

I was really pleased with a card that I CASEd from the catalog (page 33) so I decided to use the layout again. Here’s my earlier card. I changed it up a bit but still used DSP as the background and added that to an emerald envy card base.

The top layer was a piece of whisper white which looked “right”. I held a piece of the new half inch lemon lime twist ribbon along with my happy birthday over a scrap of whisper white to figure out the width!  The length was the same as the piece of Naturally Eclectic DSP – 4 inches. The sentiment is from Vertical Greetings, stamped in emerald envy. I added a mat 1/8 inch wider to pull it all together.

Delightful Daisy DSP

Leave a reply

I just used a teeny piece of the Delightful Daisy DSP for this card and it’s a piece that looks like leaves. I really think that this paper pack is one of my most favourites ever.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Delightful Daisy DSP - Daisy Delight - Soft Sayings Card Kit

I added the stamping from the Daisy Delight stamping in old olive on both very vanilla and old olive and punched them out with the Daisy Punch (back in stock currently!). I glued the two together for a two tone flower and finished it with a gold faceted gem. Love these! I added a mat of very vanilla around my piece of Delightful Daisy DSP to match the flower. And then I tried to make the gold embossing really sparkle in the photo.

The sentiment. Do you recognise it? It’s from the Soft Sayings Card kit which is a great kit – I’ve made all 20 of my cards already. I’ll share them soon. I embossed it with gold embossing powder to match the gem. A simple card but fun. And if you wanted to make a load, you could since it uses very little DSP.

Daisy Punch

Leave a reply

Good news!! I think I mentioned that the Daisy Punch was incredibly popular and on backorder and then not orderable after more than 10,000 punches were ordered. Normally Stampin’ Up! sells about 7000 of a punch in a year and just demonstrators in their pre-order period in April bought that in just over 2 weeks so more were ordered right away. Of course it takes time to get more made and shipped so they had to turn them off. BUT the daisy punch is back in stock today. If you’ve been waiting to buy the bundle of the stamp set with the punch, I’d grab it quickly before this small order is depleted. The bundle is $31.50 and the code is 145361.

Here are some little 3 by 3 inch cards that I made using the punch and some of the Fresh Florals DSP stack. The clear faceted gems are also available again so throw those into your order along with the gold ones. At only $5 each colour, it’s a no brainer!

These are of course three of the new in colors – berry burst, tranquil tide and fresh fig. I love that I can’t decide on my favourite color!

Daisy Delight

Here’s a quick and simple card showcasing the Delightful Daisy DSP and the coordinating Daisy Delight stamp set.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Daisy Delight - Delightful Daisy DSP

The DSP is 4 1/4 by 3 1/2 inches and on a night of navy card base. I used the triple banner punch for my banner which is just a hair under an inch deep and the sentiment is from the matching set, Daisy Delight. I popped it up on dimensionals to add interest.
