Daffodil Daydream

It’s spring and the sweet little daffodils are shinning their little faces up to the sun, that is when it isn’t raining. Daffodils always make me think of my childhood since my mother always had them on the table for Easter. Always one of the first pops of color in the garden that my mom loved to tend. So today I thought I’d share with you some cards that use the Daffodil Daydream (157786) stamp set and their coordinating Daffodil Dies (157794).

This first card teams up the images that have been colored with our Calypso Coral and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends

and highlighted with the beautifully versatile Scalloped Contour Dies (155560) done in our In colors Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen. And this next card uses that same Evening Evergreen to create this lovely Easter card.

The 2021-2023 IN Color Designer Series Paper (159254) adds a bit of interest with it’s pattern and some Clear Wink of Stella (141897) adds a bit of shimmer and sun kissed look to the flowers.

And for my final card this final fun fold card

The sweet little Brass Butterflies (158136) and lovely stitched edge adds some nice details too.

If you love daffodils as much as I do why not stop by my Online Store and check this lovely stamp set and dies out today?

Today’s card has been made with the Adorable Owls (Sale-a-bration 160269) and has been done in our In Colors.

And since our In Colors come in fun to use assortments you can create quickly and easily. This little guy has been colored with our Stampin’ Blends and is so much fun to color. It’s amazing how quickly you can change the feel of this little guy simply by changing up his eye color. I was going to a more masculine feel to this card so I stuck with the greens this go around.

Pretty Polished Pink

Today’s cards have one thing in common the In Color, Polished Pink. They are also monochromatic, which is a fun way to stamp as you can focus on the images.

So let’s start with this first card using the Color & Contour stamp Bundle (158356).

You’ll love this bundle with it’s great images and wonderful dies that are so versatile. I’m actually holding a class using this stamp set in August. You can CLICK HERE to see that class and my others for more details and to sign up.

This next card uses the In Symmetry (155140) stamp set.

And these final two cards use the Brilliant Wings Dies (155523). The dies can be teamed up with any sentiment set of your choice, like this one using Colors & Contours (154994).

And this set of dies has a detailed set like this first card in addition to a bold set that can be used independently or together to create layers of color giving you lots of options and color combinations too.

I love the fact that our In Colors have coordinating accessories like the Designer Series Paper (155641) and ribbon (155714) used for these projects. The In Color Jewels (155571) have been so popular they are currently on back order. But no worries, while you can’t order them currently they will be back soon.

Did you know if there is something that you can’t order due to backorders and want to be notified when they arrive back in stock you can contact me and I’ll be happy to let you know when they are available again.

Sweet Soft Succulent

If you love greens with a vintage feel then Soft Succulent is right up your alley. This years In Colors are fantastic together or as a stand alone color. Check out these monochromatic cards using this great new In Color, Soft Succulent. This first card uses the Hand Penned Petals Bundle (155070).

The image was stamped with Soft Succulent and then cut out with the coordinating Penned Flower Dies (155557). It was then layered onto the same shape cut out of Soft Succulent Card stock to create a shadow effect. And if you don’t recognize the scalloped rectangle, you’ll want to make sure to check out this wonderful set of dies. The very popular Scalloped Contour Dies (155560) are a great staple to have in your collection since the shapes are so versatile. And if you love paper you’ll want to take a look at this next card.

The In Color Shimmer Vellum (155616) and In Color Designer Series Paper (155641) has been cut into strips and layered onto this card to create a lovely back drop for the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (151595). A bit of texture was added to the card using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder (152718).

And how about this card using the Dragonfly Garden Bundle(156224)?

I really love this sentiment found in the set. And this next card uses the Queen Anne’s Lace stamp set (158309) and Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (154317) along with a simple shadow technique in which the image is first stamped in Soft Succulent and then stamped again using VersaMark (102283) and heat embossed with our White Embossing Powder (155554).

It’s simple and striking. The Very Versailles stamp set (149275) stamp set was used to create this lovely card.

And if you don’t recognize the butterflies, they are from the Nature’s Thoughts Dies (153586) found on page 164 of the Annual Catalog. Last but not least here is a beautiful card stamped with the Host set, Better Places (155858) that you can earn for free with a private party or qualifying order.

It uses once again those popular Scallop Contour Dies that I mentioned earlier along with the Bark 3D Embossing Folder (155431) for lots of texture. The Genial Gems (155500) add a bit of shimmer to the project.

So what do you think of the new Soft Succulent? I find it a wonderfully calming color that is perfect for almost everything as you can see. lol. Why not leave me a comment and let me know what you think of the NEW Soft Succulent?
