Wildlife Wonder

The Wildlife Wonder stamp set (157923) is one of those sets that draws your eye and is wonderful for creating cards for those men in our lives.

It’s filled will some wonderful all occasion sentiments in addition to some lovely sketched images that have shading built right into them making them great for simple stamping. Check out today’s card highlighting the set.

It really is a wow card, even though it uses simple stamping. I just love the use of the Stargazing Designer Series Paper (161175) and 2022-2024 In color Textured Specialty Paper (161747) which give it a special feel with it’s imagery and shimmer. And for a bit of texture the torn edge technique was used on the the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (160766) layer, along with the Stylish Shapes Dies (159183), and Neutrals Adhesive Backed Sequins (161627) were used.

Makes me think of a clear, cold winter night up here in the mountains when the stars are so bright, how about you?

Let it snow with Sparkling Snowflakes

Today’s monochromatic card tutorial uses the lovely Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set (Retirement List 162158) that is part of our Retirement list and only available while supplies last or until January 3rd.

It contains some lovely all occasion sentiments along with holiday ones making it great for all winter long. And since it is a 2 step stamp set you’ve got lots of choices too. Snowflakes! I love them and the fact they are all different and unique like us.

You should check out the coordinating Sparkling Snowflakes Tag Topper Punch (Retiring 162164) too if you love them as much as I do. And while supplies last there is a 10% savings when you purchase the bundle.

Today’s card is monochromatic and done in one of my favorite In Colors, Orchid Oasis.

It also features a quick and simple technique, the torn edge. It’s so easy to do but gives your project lots of texture quickly.

Here is a quick video tutorial for you along with my PDF. You can print the pdf off and it has everything you need including the link for the video when you get ready to craft.

Hello Kiwi

Kiwi, do you remember the first time you had one of these funny little fruits? It’s not one that I grew up with and wasn’t very sure about it in the beginning. While I enjoyed them when I was out, they were a lot of work to cut, but now that I know how to peel them and get them out of their skins easily I enjoy them frequently. Have you tried the gold ones? Yum.

Today’s cards use the Hello Kiwi stamp set (161258) and focus on these sweet little tropical fruits. The images have been teamed up with the birthday sentiment.

This first card uses our bright cheerful In Colors Sweet Sorbet and Parakeet Party. They have been stamped and then some texture was added with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (154317). For a bit of shine the Parakeet Party 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon (159196) was added.

This next card uses the stripe and splatter patterns from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (161640). The kiwi were stamped using the Lemon Lime Twist Classic Ink this time and the Bubble Bath sentiment layer was popped up to add some depth.

A Bit of white Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack (155475) adds a bit of interest too.

So what do you think? Want to check out this fun little stamp set and add it to your collection? Why not stop by my Online store and see these products and more?
