More images and sentiments from September’s PP.  Again I used the Happy Haunting DSP, page 47 of the HC and candy dots, page 161 from the AC.  In addition I used the tea lace doilies, page 148 AC and sponged it with Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Watermelon Wonder and Old Olive ink refills on a baby wipe.  That is also what I used to stamp the images.  I used some left over raffia from the kit.

These Edgelits will knock the top of your head off!  They are so awesome!  There is a stamp set that SU has paired with them but I didn’t use any stamp other than Six Sayings, the Hostess set, on page 51 of the HC.  I punched out the star from Silver Glimmer paper with our Itty Bitty Accents punch, page 166 of the AC.  I use white ink to splatter the sky and I added the silver sequins to hide a blunder. LOL

29. September 2015 · Comments Off on Into the Woods · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , ,

The image cut out from this DSP, page 43 HC, is from the Leaflets Framelits, page 172, AC.  I used the maple leaf die.  The fall scene, and the sentiment is from the stamp set, Happy Scenes, page 11 of the HC.  I colored it with our stampinWrite markers.  I love it when a stamp set comes with both images and sentiments.  AND, of course this set can be used for just about any season.  Don’t you just love these little wooden elements, page 43?  The ribbon is our 1/2″ seam binding found on page 159 of the AC.  OOPS! I just looked up the page and noticed that they discontinued the Daffodil Delight Seam binding.  Oh well, Stuff happens.

This is one of the cards we will be making today for camp.  The stamp set Howl-o-ween Treat can be found on page 49 of the HC.  I used the Boo to you framelits (same page) to cut out the hat.  The spider web doilies are on page 47 and the “Spooky” Thinlits can be found on page 40.  The Pumpkin is stamped with the set Sparkly Seasons, pg 40, and I used the 2″circle punch to cut it out.   The sequins are from the Brights Assortment, page 160 of the AC.

I love this set from the HC, page 20 and I used watercolor paper with our classic ink pads and a aqua brush, page 163 of the AC.  I used the Mosaic Embossing Folder, page 174 AC on our gold foil paper.   I used the framelits, Lots of Labels, page 173, AC and layered them on dimenionals.  Colors I used are Island Indigo, Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Crushed curry and Soft Suede.

The only stamp I used on this card is from the set Over the Rainbow, page 21 of the AC.  That would be the Moon.  The background is Night Of Navy card stock and I used the Trees edgelit, page 12 from the HC.  The base card is our new heavy Whisper White.  OOPS! Sorry, I was wrong, the sentiment is from the Hostess set, Six Sayings, page 51 of the HC.

17. September 2015 · Comments Off on Red Foil Beauty · Categories: 3D Items · Tags: , ,

I used the Festive Flower punch, page 31 HC, to punch out the petals on the red foil paper, page 26 HC, the green leaves were stamped with Reason for the Season set on page 31 of the HC.  I used the stylus to score the petals and gold foil paper for the center of the poinsettia.  The sentiment is from Seasonal Fame Thinlits, page 40, HC.  I really like this against the Mint Macaron card stock, don’t you?

16. September 2015 · Comments Off on Leaflets Framelits · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , ,

ON this card I used the framelits, page 172 of the AC, without the stamp set and I am really happy with the way they turned out.  I scored each leaf with the stylus tool.  The colors I sponged with are Old Olive, Watermelon Wonder and Tangelo Twist, on Dafodil Delight Card Stock.  The sentiment is from the set Among the branches, page 39 of the HC.  I am sure getting a lot of use from that set.  I embellished with the wooden elements, into the woods, page 43 of the HC.

I love the cat in this stamp set, Festive Fireplace, page 10 in the HC.  I also used the branch from the set Among the branches, page 39.  I used the  Sleigh Ride Edgelits with the houses on this card.  Used the white gel pen to highlight.

04. September 2015 · Comments Off on Peaceful Pines · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , , ,

On page 17 in the HC you will find this beautiful set of trees. Perfect Pines Framelits dies were used to cut out the trees.  This is a bundle also so if you want both you save 15%.
In addition there are also lovely sentiments and embellishments that you can decorate your trees with.  I left these plain in the background but I love the tree with the sentiment in front.  You will again be surprised to find that these little bambi’s were not stamped but cut out from the DSP, Home for Christmas, page 9.  I used whisper white card stock to stamp the trees and place the images on and the back ground DSP is also from the same DSP set.  I used Dazzling Diamonds to highlight the snow in front.  Aren’t these little guys so stinkin’ cute?

02. September 2015 · Comments Off on Another Happy Scene · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , ,

Again this bundle can be found on page 11 of the HC.  I used the Hearth & Home Thinlits dies to cut out the window.   The spider and web is from Happy Scenes and the background paper is from Go Wild DSP paper Stack, page 144 of the AC.  I blended Rich Razzleberry and Elegant Eggplant for outside of the window and used Daffodil Delight for the Moon.

I love some of the embellishments that SU is showcasing in this new Holiday Catalog. I used the samp set Howl-0-Ween, page 49 along with the Spider web Doilie, page 47 of the HC.  This time I used the skull and Bones from the stamp set.  I used it with our heavy white card stock, page 149 in the AC.

Yes, I know, it is not even Halloween yet.  But you know I just have to start showing you sneak peeks from the HC, right?   You are going to be surprised to know that the chimney I made with the embossing folder, Brick Wall, page 174 in the AC.  I used our dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper, page 149 AC, for the snow.  However, the BIG surprise is that the Cute little Santa is not stamped but is cut out (fussy cut) from our gorgeous DSP, Home for Christmas, page 9 of the HC.  By now you have probably seen all the really cute cards made with this DSP, by cutting out some of the images.  Our SU artists that designed this paper really out did themselves.  Every page is just beautiful.  If you have not rec’d your Holiday catalog by the end of the month, just let me know.  Background DSP is from Pretty Petals Paper Stack, page 144.

29. August 2015 · Comments Off on Among the Branches · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , ,

The embossing folder, Woodland Textured Impressions, page 39, really sets off this card.  The set that is paired with it, Among the Branches can be found on same page.  It is pretty versatile considering you can use it for Fall /Thanksgiving, and Christmas also.  I have seen some pretty cool samples on the internet where Demonstrators have used all different colors as the background for the trees.  You will be seeing this quite a bit in my postings through out the seasons.  The second card is also from the same bundle, I just switched it up a bit.

28. August 2015 · Comments Off on Sneak Peek BOO! · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , , ,

I can honestly say that this set, Howl-0-ween Treat, page 49, is one of my favorite sets in the entire Holiday catalog.  What I love about it are the matching framelits dies that you can buy with it.  Of course it can be bundled so you can save 15% on both items.  How much fun making cards with these and we do not have to fussy cut.  THe embossing folder is to die for and you can find that on page 39.  That is also part of a bundle too where you can save on both the stamp set that is paired with it.  You will see that set in tomorrows post.  Everything in this new catalog is sooooo awesome, I had trouble trying to select which ones I had to have.  Hard decision!

Another sneak peek at our Holiday catalog featuring Halloween.  This stamp set is Witches Night and can be found on page 7 of the HC.  I originally bought it to go with the Witching Decor Project Kit but I have made several cards with it too.  This card I used Rich Razzelberry for the Raven and the date and then covered them with Crystal Effects.

Here is another sneak peek at the new SQUARE pillow box thinlits dies found in our new Holiday catalog.  What is special about this pillow box is that it is large enough to hold both candies and a gift card.   Perfect for giving this Holiday season.
I used Mint Macaron card stock for the box.  The window was cut out with dies included with the pillow box die.   You will soon be receiving your new HC, and when you do, you can find this die on page 41.  It has lots of really cool dies that can be used with the pillow die, as well as on cards, scrapbooks, and gift items, etc.

02. August 2015 · Comments Off on Vintage Leaves · Categories: Cards · Tags: , , , , ,

This set Vintage Leaves has framelits to go with it.  You can find it on page 88 of the AC.  On this card I used watercolor paper for the leaves.  I found it works the best with this stamp set although you could use regular paper.  I just like the texture of the water color paper.  The colors I used were Old Olive, Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Tangelo Twist and Real Red.  The sentiment is from Trust God, page 24.  In addition, I used the corrugated paper for the background.
Best buy is the bundle where you get 15% off regular price if you buy both framelits and the stamp set.

If you are a camper up have got to love this amazing set.  The stamp is from the set, You’re Sublime, found on page 45.  This is such a versatile stamp set, something for everyone.   I used the new in-color Mint Macaron and the new DSP, Schoolhouse, page 143.  I also used our very new Lots of Labels Framelits, page 173.

I love this new set of fruits and vegetables.  It has been a long time since we had images like these and these are great because they already contain a sentiment.  I embossed the background with our new Brick wall EF, page 174 and then highlighted the grout with the white gel pen found on page 163.  I sponged it with Soft Suede.  Colors I used on the image were Cucumber Crush and Watermelon Wonder.  I used the oval collection framelits, page 173, to cut out the brick wall.

This stamp set can be found on page 86.  I am so happy that SU decided to change around our Nature animals because I just love this set.  I was getting a little tired of the noble Moose that they carried for so long.  I especially love this Pointer.  The next card I make with this beautiful animal I think I will incorporate the duck with it.  I didn’t use watercolor paper on this, just our regular whisper white.  I used pool party as the background with Crumb Cake and Sahara Sand for the pooch.  The papers I used are Mossy Meadow, Mint Macaroon, Soft Suede and the DSP is English Garden, page 142.  I also used our new Lots of Labels, page 173.  They are so awesome!

This is going to be one of those hostess stamp sets that are going to be so popular.  I know everyone will want to host a $150 book party or workshop just to be able to get this set.  So easy to color.  Here I used watercolor paper and fussy cut it out.  I used our white gel pen to highlight.  The colors I used are Blackberry Bliss and Mossy Meadow.  The ribbon is so beautiful and makes the prettiest bow.  It is also Blackberry Bliss and can be found on page 159 in the AC.
