Sunday Suite - Dragonfly Garden Suite

Introducing the lovely - and large -  Dandy Garden Suite... lots for your money with this one...

 

Live in the UK? Love dandelions and/or dragonflies like I do! If so...without further ado - I have a co-ordinating PAPER KIT IN THE MAIL for you... which you could even get for free with certain Product Set purchases! Summary in the  imagebelow but more details here and /or Click here to email me for further details... Close date Tues 22 March.

So back to the Suite... Comprising of... Dragonfly Garden bundle.... stamps plus co-ordinating Dragonflies punch....

2 sizes of Dragonflies... how perfect!

The Garden Wishes bundle...comprising of stamps plus Dandy Wishes dies...

The stunning Dandy Laser Cut papers... I really can't wait to create some beautiful but simple cards from these...

The Dandy Garden papers - 6x6 size - 24 different designs... 4 each of the 12 double sided sheets... Check out each of the designs by clicking here...

The gorgeous and cute Ladybug Trinkets... get your red and black Stampin Blends on these for maximum realistic Ladybird effect! And yes they are called Ladybirds in the UK but Ladybugs in the US...so both words apply...

Mossy Meadow Braided Linen Trim... very nice!

Making Memories cards.... for simple cards or memory keeping...

Making Memories Cards & Envelopes...to make sure those cards are as simple as can be! Very pretty!

And finally lots of projects to share... such a creative suite... Enjoy!

Paper Blooms Angled Corner Layer Cards duo...

I was inspired by the nifty use of one 6"x6" piece of paper by Rachel Tessman at Stamp Your Art Out. blog to make four of these Angled Corner Cards...

Really quick and easy method with papers... but making a stunning feature... and 4 cards made in a flash! Definitely a method for "pinning" and to use when bulk making...

Sharing just the 2 today... as I tried out a few things as I went along... come back Tuesday for the other Paper Blooms pair... and (hopefully) a few extra tips...

Floral and leaf elements fussy cut from the Paper Blooms papers... which I just love...  

Along with a sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamps... of which the sentiments are just amazing for today's times... 

I particularly like the "can't... fix your problems... but you won't face them alone"... (2nd one down)... I can send a lot with that sentiment out nowadays.. and hopefully brighten someone else's day slightly in the doing so...

Remember that you can get both of these for free during the Sale A Bration promotion  - one for every £45 ordered  - but beware this promotion finishes in just over a weeks time - 28 Feb...

Need more flowers... just check out the co-ordinating All Blooms bundle featured earlier this week... along with those fantastic pierced blooms....

Apart from using different cut out flowers and sentiments... there's only two slight difference between these 2 cards...

Just the Night of Navy mat... and a white embossed sentiment down the right hand slope on this one... and note that the large daisy-type flower is just a partial one (cut from the edge of the paper) which was popped under the bottom slope and covered by more flowers...

And a Night of Navy stamped sentiment on an extra Seaside Spray mat on this one...

Wednesday Wideo - In Bloom bundle

Showcasing the lovely In Bloom bundle for you today... and sharing something you may have not spotted! 

Starting with a video that comes with a public health warning!! 

Stampin' Up! have tried out out fast motion editing for this one... and it is... cough... fast! So you can't actually see the bundle being presented at the beginning... but the featured projects are rather nice... and you are shown how to make them... so some of you may like the need for speed! Once you have got past the first few screens....

So we have the In Bloom stamps...

And the co-ordinating Pierced Blooms dies... love love love all these stitched flowers and leaves! Which I have to admit that I hadn't spotted at all... as I saw the second image below  - not the first - but did you?

And as a Brucey bonus.... this bundle also co-ordinates with the gorgeous Paper Blooms papers... which can be yours for free with the bundle purchase... as you get a freebie for every £45 ordered during Sale A Bration...

And spot that "spotty" piece of paper ( bottom, 2nd from right),... so perfect for die-cutting flowers and leaves from...

But don't delay if you want the papers too... as Sale A Bration only runs for 2 months this time.... ending 28 February...which is less than 2 weeks away...

Welcoming Window #14 - the last one...

Thought it was high time I brought the Welcoming Window series to an end... though I warn you that I still have a very long list of alternative ideas to test and make... so I should be back with more... but for now... a change is as good as a rest!

But before I start on todays card... click here to go to Saturdays post for the Crumb Cake one... for which I messed up the title and link when I posted so not many people saw it... 

So as I was making the double die cut cards.... I made some other alternatives along the way...

This one is the final Double Die Cut Card....

With the double die cut... and the shutters attached so they close over the window on the inside.... much like they would be in real life!

Note that I reveal "the how" in the Tutorials suite.... 

The chicks are back... and they have multiplied!

Just realised I forgot to tell you about the current Stampin' Up! promotion...

Remember this Hey Chick stamp set? From a Sale A Bration promotion a few years back (2017 - so 4 years back to be precise...wow...cant believe it is that long ago).. so you may have these - or if not - you can now just buy them!

And now they have the Chick Dies to go with them now...

Oy you can buy them as the Hey Chick bundle with the 10% off...

But wait there's even more... as we also have the Hey Birthday Chick bundle ... 

So you can go clucking mad!

Hey Birthday stamps with Birthday Chick dies to match...

Ooh... love the little Happy Birthday die that I have just spotted! (top centre)

All available from now until 30 June 2021... and  so very cute...
