#simplestamping

Hi everyone, sharing another #simplestamping card.  I actually enjoying the challenge to do #simplestamping, I am a girl that likes lots of layers and embellishments so this challenges me to get back to the basics.  These cards are very quick to stamp which is also a bonus, and when you use the Stampin' Up! Notecards and Envelopes it is even quicker, no cutting cardstock up for a card base.

The #simplestamping challenge for February is 

• Theme: Birthday
• Supplies: Stamps, ink and paper
• Bonus Material/Tool: You may add a layer of Designer Series Paper

I have used the Beautiful You stamp set and ink colours Balmy Blue and Memento Black.  I add a strip of Designer Series Paper on the edge of my card front as my layer of Designer Series Paper.

Lady in Blue

Hi everyone, sharing another of my swaps that I made for OnStage that was held yesterday. I did CASE this design from Sarah Gough, different stamp sets but the design is entirely Sarah's.  When I first saw her card I immediately thought of the 'Beautiful You' stamp set.

I have used a colour scheme of Dapper Denim, Whisper White and a touch of So Saffron on the hat.  The image was stamped with Black StazOn  on Whisper White cardstock and lightly water coloured using an Aqua Painter.  As you are only adding a small amount of colour the water colouring on the Whisper White cardstock works okay.

The Dapper Denim Ruched Ribbon was added to the top of the card and three Dapper Denim Enamel Shapes added to the bottom.  Note the score lines just above and just below the image.

You can get all the supplies you need

 for this project from me.

Lady in Blue

The Card Concept #65

Hi everyone, do you like a challenge?  I certainly found one when I decided to play along with the Fresh and Bold challenge this week at The Card Concept.  I will admit that I sat and pondered over this challenge for a couple of days.

I used the colour scheme of Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie and the black and white photos of vintage ladies on the wall as my inspiration.

 

The stamp set is Beautiful You which has these gorgeous ladies and some terrific sentiments. 

For the inside of my card I did a "W" fold to create this pop out section.  I also did a little paper piecing on this card, using patterned paper from the Pop of Pink Speciality Designer Series Paper Pack and Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper Pack.

Thank you for visiting.
