Stippled Roses

Posted on February 20, 2024 by Stamp with Jini

Need a soft lovely stamp set with classic images? Love Roses? How about the Stippled Roses Bundle (162667) found in our Mini catalog

This set has some great sentiments for the ladies and to use for special occasions and check out the soft flowing font used to convey well wishes too.

Today’s card uses a quick and easy technique with our Blending Brushes (153611) and it’s a great way to add multiple colors to an image like this one. Simply ink up your brush and “pounce” onto your image to add the color.

You’ll want to start with the lightest color first so you don’t contaminate your ink pads with a darker color. This images uses Berry Burst, blackberry Bliss, Bubble Bath and Mossy Meadow to create this soft floral look.

The background has been dry embossed with our Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (154317) and the 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack (161635) gives it a bit of silver shine that is complemented by the Basic Rhinestones Jewels (144220). A lovely card for a special day.

Perennial Lavender Mask Wraps

Posted on February 9, 2024 by Stamp with Jini

It’s winter and that always means the skin needs a bit of pampering, so when I ran across these foot masks at my local store I knew I wanted to create a fun wrap to create gifts for my team. After all who doesn’t like a little pampering any time of year?

The wrap allows you to slide the mask out easily

I’ve created this wrap up using the Painted Lavender stamp set (162594) but since I wanted to use the lovely Sale-a-bration FREE Pool Party 5/8″ Crinkle Ribbon (Sale-a-bration 162980)

I changed up the color pallet. You can see just how lovely it is and a great width for a bold pop of color. So I started with the Pool Party base and went from there. The images from the Painted Lavender Stamp set (162594)

were stamped using a quick and easy technique called the stamp off method, this technique will give you a different shades each time you stamp off making it a great way to create depth and give more flexibility when using your Classic Ink Pad.

I finally added some Purple Fine Shimmer Gems (162611) to add a bit of shimmer and texture to the project. These gems come in different colors and are quite pretty, you’ll want to be sure to check them out in my Online store.

Want to see how I made this wrap for my gift? Check out my video tutorial and printable PDF.

You can find all kinds of masks like I did at the Dollar Tree. We got our first ones as a hotel pillow gift on a trim and as my daughter and I found we enjoyed trying them out and enjoyed the bit of pampering it gave us.

Enjoy!

Quiet Reflection

Posted on January 30, 2024 by Stamp with Jini

Do you like simple stamping? Or stepping your project up with a quick and simple technique? The Quiet Reflection stamp set (162689) gives you all of these options, plus it has some great sentiments too!

This first card uses a simple technique of stamping, crumpling the paper and adding some sponging to the crinkles.

Two Classic Inks were used to ink up the image, Pean Pie and a bit of Mossy Meadow on the top image which gives it a cool effect. The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow and the Pecan Pie 1/2″ Bordered Ribbon (161634) adds a bit more texture to the project.

This next project uses the same two color ink technique for the image but this time it is Mossy Meadow and Pretty Peacock.

The card has been stepped up with our dies the Deckled Rectangle Dies (159173) which have been used to cut out the image. Texture has been added with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (156505) to the Lost Lagoon layer and a few of the Pretty Peacock sequins from the Adhesive Backed Sequins Trio Pack (161206). And this last card uses a fun technique too.

The image was stamped in our Pebbled Path, if you haven’t added this color to your ink collection you’ll want to since it is a lovely warm gray. Then some color was added to the stamped panel in Balmy Blue and Blueberry Bushel with our Blending Brushes (153611). Add a bit of Linen Thread (104199) as your horizon. Finally our Christmas Pinecones Dies (1569309) were used in a non traditional manner to emboss the Pebbled Path card stock layer. Simply turn the dies over so that it doesn’t cut your card stock and run it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss. It will emboss your card stock this way rather than cut the pinecones out. A great way to add texture and a fun technique that packs a wow factor.

Best Witches & More

Posted on September 12, 2022 by Stamp with Jini

With the days shortening and the leaves beginning to turn Halloween isn’t far behind. So today I thought I would share some cute cards with you for the upcoming holiday. Did you know that Halloween is one of the biggest chocolate holidays of the year? Yep, and my hubby knows it since he was always checking those treats before our children could eat them to make sure they were safe. lol

This first card uses the fun Best Witches stamp set (159860).

Done in bold colors this card is sure to make someone smile. And this next card uses a fun technique with our Parakeet Party In Color Designer Series Paper (159253) called the Twisted Ribbon technique.

The Bewitching Bundle (159857) has a fun little Witch Hat Builder Punch (159856) that is part of it. I don’t know about you but when I see this punch I think of the Sorting Hat. Is it just me or have I watched Harry Potter too much?

Which either set you like, you’ll enjoy treating others with fun little projects this Halloween.

Welcoming Woods

Posted on August 18, 2021 by Stamp with Jini

This time of year the outdoors are calling and hiking, camping and spending the day in our North Georgia Mountains becomes extremely popular as the highways heading north are filled with campers, leaf watchers, and those seeking the peace and quiet of a day with nature. The Welcoming Woods stamp set (156550) evokes those kinds of images in my mind and since this set has all occasions sentients and year round options I think you’ll find this set a great one to team up with sets you might already have.

Check out this first card for fall and it’s striking colors.

A Blending Brush (153611) or Sponge Daubers (133773) were used to add color to this lovely image. A easy technique that packs a wallop! And this next card uses the set as a back drop for the Nature’s Beauty (150528) wildlife.

Embossed in White Embossing Powder (155554) it uses the snowflake pattern from the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718) to set the winter scene.
