Merriest Moments Monday #12-14

Adding more detail to my Merriest Moments cards... as the dies set has a large "mat die" which I have used with the gold Metallic Speciality paper...

Mounting up my embossed, die cut and stamped main feature panel with gold mat three ways...

So we have A5 card blanks in Evening Evergreen and then Very Vanilla... and finishing off with a large A5 Very Vanilla blank 

And a tip (and/or a bit of a laugh for you!) You can of course die cut flowers, leaves and even a gold matting panel from the large gold mat before you adhere it to the main feature panel....

But please think about the die placement! I cut lots out where I didn' t mean to!! Though luckily it didn't really show from the front...  In fact it made the gold mat a bit lighter....

Thursday Three Ways - Plentiful Plants

 

Three different creations using a few of the same base supplies including the lovely Plentiful Plants stamp set and dies.

In addition to the stamp set, these three cards all used Basic White, Petal Pink, So Saffron, and Soft Sea Foam Cardstock; Calypso Coral, Mango Melody, and Shaded Spruce Classic Stampin’ Pads; and a bit of Linen Thread.

On the Merci bien card, we stamped on the Basic White Cardstock before cutting the piece at a diagonal. Then we layered the So Saffron and Soft Sea Foam pieces behind and stamped the sentiment on the Petal Pink Cardstock (which we repeated on the other two cards as well).

For the Veel geluk samen card, we die cut the macramé plant holder from So Saffron Cardstock and stamped the plant image on Soft Sea Foam Cardstock. Next, we stamped the plant image on Soft Sea Foam with Shaded Spruce ink and die cut before assembling.

And finally, the Du hast mir sehr geholfen card has the Basic White Cardstock piece cut into three strips. We stamped different pots on So Saffron Cardstock in Calypso Coral and Mango Melody ink and die cut them. Then we stamped the plant image in Shaded Spruce ink on Soft Sea Foam Cardstock and die cut that as well.

There are so many wonderful creations you can make using just these supplies. Why not give it a try? Want to see more of Plentiful Plants? Then CLICK HERE for details on the whole Bloom Where You're Planted suite...

Thursday 3 ways...

 

2021 brings plenty of new reasons to stamp lovely cards for friends, neighbours, co‑workers, and anyone you know who could use a little cheer and encouragement. And I think we all know that we all need lots of that at the moment...  And if you keep your stamping simple... you will have tons of cards to give away in no time!

In fact, if you CASE the cards you see here, you’ll be halfway there! Interest has been added to these easy‑to‑make cards in three ways... Adhered Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper strips at different angles for the You Did It card  Stamped directly onto the Oh So Ombre  Designer Series Paper for the Cue the Confetti and Whale Done cards.  And just check out social media boards or thumb through the catalogue for many more ideas to CASE (Copy & Share Everything or Everywhere!) And even better... Oh So Ombre paper can be yours for free during the Sale A Bration promotion...
