Punches - Day 4

Hello. Today really is a very easy straightforward card.

I used the Tailored Tag Punch and Butterfly Wishes stamp set.

I used a piece of DSP from the See A Silhouette range of Papers.

I cut a piece the size of the front mat of the card base. 

Then punched the whole sheet using the Tag punch.

 It was just a case of sticking each and every piece back together but this time with a small white border between each piece.

I finished off by standing each side of the inside mat onto Pacific Point, this gives definition 

to the edges of the mat.

I then stamped the message and a few butterflies to complete it.

Punches - Day 3

This card today is for some friends who are celebrating their anniversary.

I used Itty Bitty Greetings for the stamping and a few different punches. 

The first of which is the Christmas Bulb punch. 

It's not just for Christmas after all!

Using the smaller 1,1/8th" scallop circle punch, I punch out of Silver foil.

Then used the larger one, 1,3/8" scallop Circle Punch, I punched around the previous hole.

I made several of these and used 1 of the shapes for the Happy Anniversary message.

I started with a Smoky Slate card base, added a Silver Foiled Card mat and then a 

                                                     Whisper White mat on top of those.

I added the circle edges and them punched a few bulbs out of foiled card too.

They were suspended with White Baker's Twine and Dimensionals.

I finished off with another simple message inside too.

Punches - Day 2 

Welcome back. Today's project is a very simple card.

I inked the flowers and leaves using Stampin' Write Marker Pens to give the individual colours.

I used Calypso Coral pens. The butterflies were stamped in Pool Party.

Using Whisper White card for the base, Balmy Blue for the mats and 

Calypso Coral for the base of the message. 

The stamp set used is Butterrfly Wishes and it goes perfectly well with the Butterfly Punch

used for the butterflies. The message was punched out using the Timeless Label Punch.

I stamped a few more butterflies inside too.

Weekly Inspiration - Punches

Punches - Day 1

Hello. Thankyou for stopping by this week. 

I, making projects this week using some of the many, many punches that Stampin' Up! have.

This first one I have used the Medium Daisy Punch along with the lovely Daisy Lane Stamp set.

For more information on the Stamps and Punch, please click HERE

I have used Whisper White and Coastal Cabana cardstock for the card base and mats.

Brights Designer Series Paper for the insert on the front.+

 

I stamped 3 of the daisies and the Friend message onto Whisper White card then punched them out using the Medium Daisy Punch and the Timeless Label Punch.

 

 

I mounted the daisies and placed them onto the centre of the card points.

I added a message and flower inside and a Clear Facetted dot to the front to complete the card.

                                

#Simplestamping - Day 5 

For my last card this week, I've used the new Daisy Lane stamp set. I love it as it coordinates with the other set called Daisy Delight. So if you have the older set, you really need to get the new one to go with it. 

This one I stamped 9 daisies in Mango Melody Ink onto White card, I then stamped 3 of the lovely leaves onto white and cut them with scissors. No I didn't cut out the daisies as I bought the punch to go with it. However, they are easy to cut but it's so much quicker to punch them out. Besides, I do LOVE a bundle of products. It's only £32.00 too. BARGAIN!

 For more information on the bundle, please click HERE

I mounted 3 daisies together 3 time and added them onto the Whisper White mat along with the leaves. Notice that the daisies are curled? I love adding a little dimension on my cards. 

I added the white mats onto Mango Melody card to make them POP!

A simple Smile message on the front... and another on the inside to finish off this card.

I had so much fun, I made another card today too.

Using the Medium Daisy Punch and the Daisy Lane stamp set, I punched out the daisies from plain White card stock. I stamped a simple message onto another piece and mounted bothe the daisies and the message using Dimensionals.

                                                                               

 I added several rhinestones to the centre of the flower and aroung the edges of the card.

Inside I used the 2nd image from the leaves to complete this one.

Well. That's it from me for this week. I hope I've managed to give you some simple ideas for making your own cards.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you next week.

#Simplestamping - Day 4  

Hello. Today I've made a mythical card ideal for birthday or just to cheer someone up. 

I used another NEW stamp set called Leave A Little Sparkle. For more information, pleasse click HERE 

Using Whisper White and Real Red card stock this time, I stamped the Unicorn onto a White mat.

Then using a little flourish stamp in the set and using different colours

 I think it looks like it's climbing on a rainbow.

The other colours I used were Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green,          Grapefruit Grove, Gorgeous Grape and Pacific Point. 

A lovely array of beautifully bright colours. 

         I added some wet glue over the images and poured Dazzling Details 

  glitter over the glue and waited for it to dry,

Mounting the White mat onto a Real Red mat and the same with a message too.

I did the same inside and added a few flourishes or rainbow clouds to complete this one.

It really is very sparkly!

#Simplestamping - Day 3 

Hello again. Today is following on from yesterday's theme.

This time it's either a new baby or baby's 1st birthday card.

                       Using Whisper White and a small piece of Pineapple Punch card, I stamped the              2nd image onto the card base. I stamped another one onto a small piece of White and mounted that onto a small piece of the Yellow card. This time I used the gorgeous set called Wildly Happy.

For more information, please click HERE

                                                                                 

A very simple little card which I finished off with a message and another image of the Pandas inside.

I got so carried away, I made another card.

This time I used a Whisper White card base and a mat of Balmy Blue card.

Again using the same stamp set I stamped 1 image and mounted that and the message onto some scraps of blue card. 

I love this little fox and fox cub as I hear them every night climbing

 over the gate and playing in the garden.

 

I finished off with a simple message inside and by the looks of it, 

I forgot to stamp another of the fox and her cub on the inside!

That's it for today, please come and see what else I have made for this week.
