Onstage #5 - Sneak Peek - Special Reason



No more Make & Takes to share with you, but we did win some lovely stamp sets! I did find the time to make a card using one of those sets.So this is a Sneak Peek of my own.


Now this stamp set does come in a Bundle with dies, and can be found on page 42 when you get your new 2017 Occasions Catalogue. We did not win the die set, but the stamp set is a lovely one to create with. And I have to thank Mi Ran for switching prizes with me.



'Special Reason' is the name of this set and it includes some sentiments for birthday, congrats, and friendship.


In this close up below, you can see that I did the following: masking, water spritzed stamp, used my Stampin' Write Markers, and flicked my Clear Wink of Stella. I will be showing you haw to do this in a class in the new year.


In the photo below, you can better see the wink and glimmer of my Wink of Stella flicking.


Next, you can see two layers that are popped up with dimensionals.


And for my little corner inside the card...


And the card again, from the front.


I love stamping with my Stampin' Write Markers! Let me know if you want more classes using these versatile markers and learning the technique.


Happy stamping!

Swirly Bird - Sunset Sailing



It is always nice to go back to some of the older techniques learned to create a new card. Today's card has a sun set background created with 1" wide masking tape! And, the Swirly Bird stamp set (141749) is used for the sun and sailboat.

This scene makes you think of a calm lake or sea shore, which relaxes you and makes you happy just thinking of it. For that reason I chose the sentiment from the stamp set Bunch of Blossoms (141573).


I used my clear Wink of Stella on the sun and water, which barely shows up in this photo.


The side view reveals that the sentiment oval is popped up with dimensionals over a bit of the Burlap Ribbon.


On the inside I stamped another sail boat. The wink of Stella kind of came out looking like a shadow in this photo.


That's it! A real fun card using a fun old technique. Too bad I didn't notice my crooked sentiment before taking the photos and posting it. I have corrected it and it looks better straight, lol.


Thank you for stopping by to have a peek today.


Happy Stamping!

Monochromatic with Floral Boutique & Floral Phrases



I'm pretty sure that I am having a great time in Vancouver at the Stampin' Up! Event right now...

Colour is always fun to play with, and sometimes a card all in one colour with any neutral, can be quick appealing.  In June, when this DSP came out, everyone loved it, including me. However, I haven't done much with it until a few days ago. Here is another card using this lovely DSP on a 'Z' Fold card.


A couple of photos showing the card from different angles...



Here is a close up of the stamped square.


...and here is the card open. A lot of writing space on the inside when you use both sides.


I like to use the 'celebrate you' sentiment, because it can be for birthdays or any other occasion to celebrate. I did not stamp a sentiment inside, because I want to reserve it for when I know for what occasion I am giving this card away.

Well, that's it for now. I'll be sure to tell you all about my Stampin' Up event sometime next week!


Happy Stamping & Creating!
