Best Wishes For 2021

 

Happy Last Day Of 2020!

Happy New Year's Eve!

I did a little casing of Angela Meiritz-Reid

over at stampingbeauty.blogspot.com 

this week. She used different colors on her flowers and 

a different emboss folder for the background.

I grabbed my Painted Textured emboss folder for the 

white background and added it to the white base after running 

some white seam binding trim around plus a bow.

I then stamped the flowers from the new set Art Gallery 

in several purples- Gorgeous Grape, Blackberry Bliss, 

Highland Heather, and Purple Posy. 

I stamped the leaves in Just Jade and cut all with the 

matching Floral Gallery dies.

I stamped the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink and cut with the

scalloped die from the same set. 

I hope you have a safe holiday and here is to 2021!

Stop back tomorrow for a project with a new mini 2021 calendar!

Thanks for stopping by today!

GDP272 Dragonfly Inspiration

 

I cased the layout and the blending for the 

challenge over at global-design-project.com

I first cut a piece of Whisper White card stock and 

pulled out my blending brushes to do an 

ombre color in Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather and 

Purple Posy inks. 

I layered it on apiece of Purple Posy card stock and then

a Gorgeous Grape base.

I seem not be able to stop using the curvy dies.

I cut a piece of white with the dotted curvy die and added on top.

I then stamped the dragonfly from Dragonfly Garden set

in Gorgeous Grape ink and colored its wings with the 

Purple Posy Stampin Blends marker.

I also cut a small dragonfly in Grape card stock

using the Dragonflies punch.

I then stamped the sentiment in Grape ink 

on the oval white die and added to the scallop oval 

in Grape card stock. 

I finished it off wit a Grape rhinestone on the small dragonfly.

Hope you have a wonderful and inspirational day!

FabFri204 Curvy Thinking Of You

 

The Quite Curvy bundle is fun to play with and can be so colorful

like today with this 5 color challenge from 

fabfridaystampinchallenge.blogspot.com 

I stamped the ivy swag in Memento Tuxedo Black along

 with the birds and the two floral swags on Whisper White card stock. 

I colored the ivy swag with Shaded Spruce Stampin Blends markers 

and the birds in Poppy Parade and Seaside Spray. 

I colored the floral swags with regular Stampin Write markers

in Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz. 

I cut them with the matching dies called Curvy dies as well as 

the Whisper white card stock at the bottom of the card.

I stamped the sentiment in Poppy Parade ink

and layered it all on a Blushing Bride base.

I finished it off with the three blushing rhinestones.

Hope you have a blessed Tuesday and 

thanks for stopping by!

FMS466 Just For You With Quite Curvy

 

I have wanted to case the card on 23 page in the SU! spring mini catalog.

I thought it went perfect with the sketch challenge over at 

freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com 

I grabbed a Sahara Sand base and added a piece of 

Highland Heather on top.

I cut a piece of Granny Apple Green and ran a bit of 

ribbon around.

I stamped the leave swags twice from Quite Curvy set 

on Granny Apple on the same color paper.

I cut them out with the Curvy dies.

I stamped the floral swags on white in Memento Tuxedo Black

twice and colored with my Stampin Blends markers.

I cut them out and layered them on top and bottom 

of the white stitched oval stamped with the sentiment in Highland Heather ink.

A bow on the side finishes it off. 

Hope you have a lovely Monday and 

a lovely Christmas week!

I will be back after Christmas here on my blog with

GDP271 Christmas Blessings

 

I was done with my Christmas cards and then my daughter needed

one for a friend to add in her gift and at same time I saw this 

challenge from global-design-project.com so it was meant to be.

I had this sleigh and the reindeer in my "For Later" bucket. 

I stamped them last month but did not end up using them. 

The same with white snow hill at the bottom cut from the Curvy dies.

The sleigh and reindeer are from the Wishes & Wonder set and

North Pole Wonder dies. 

I stamped the sleigh in Smoky Slate and colored with a Cherry Cobbler

water color pencil. 

I stamped one reindeer in Soft Suede and the other in Crumb Cake.

I stamped the sentiment from Wrapped in Christmas in Real Red

and yes, it is a little crooked on there!

I also wanted another chance to play with my blending brush

so I ran a piece of Whisper White through the Winter Snow embossing

folder and blended some Pool Party ink on. 

I finished it off with the snowflake sequin and a Real Red base.

Hope you have a weekend full of blessings!

I am so happy to get this Game On set from one of my uplines,

Lisa Pretto, as a gift and enjoyed playing around with it.

I stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black the gaming squares on the white panel.

I then added a silver foil strip down the side.

I stamped on a white circle the chess pieces in silver ink.

I then stamped the sentiment which is part of a larger sentiment

before layering on the kraft background house using the 

Jolly Gingerbread stamp set. 

I stamped the sentiment from the same set in Mint on the 

strip to add across the house.

I added them to a white Stitched Nested Label die.

I stamped the sentiment from the same set in Black. 

I added it to a piece of In Good Taste DSP after I wrapped a piece of retired

 Terracotta ribbon around and added a bow. 

All added to the white base to finish it off.

Best Wishes With Art Gallery

 

I used some new products from the spring mini catalog

which starts on January 5th, 2021.

I ran a piece of Pool Party card stock thru the new 

Painted Texture embossing folder and then I took my blending brush 

with Pool party ink and ran across it to show more depth.

I stamped the image on white card stock by adding ink to my 

stamp from Art Gallery with my Pool Party and Old Olive markers.

I added the Night Of Navy two step to the flowers. 

After cutting with the Floral Gallery dies, I added it to the white circle die.

I then stamped the sentiment from the same set in Night of Navy

on the label die from the same die set. 

All was place on a white base.

A few blue gems finish it off.

I wanted to use my blending brush again so I decided 

to blend the background for my nativity scene and 

thepaperplayers.blogspot.com and Joanne's theme challenge this week.

Blending Brushes will be in the new mini catalog in January 20121.

I cut a piece of white card stock and blended 

some Misty Moonlight, Pacific Point and Seaside Spray inks. 

I stamped the sentiment from For Unto Us set in Misty Moonlight.

I layered it on a piece of Moonlight card stock and a white base.

I then stamped the stable and the holy family on white cardstock 

with Memento Tuxedo Black ink from the Peaceful Nativity set 

and colored them with the Stampin Blends markers. 

I used Old Olive, Soft Suede and Crumb Cake on Joseph.

I used Seaside Spray and Crumb Cake on Mary.

Soft Suede and Crumb Cake for the stable and bedding and 

Ivory for the flesh. I cut them out with the matching Nativity dies.

I also cut the palm trees in Old Olive and Soft Suede card stocks.

Finally a Crushed Curry Christmas star on top.

A Purple Frost Poinsettia

 

I had to do a purple poinsettia card and why not frosted it?

I cut the Gorgeous Grape poinsettia petals

from the Poinsettia dies and then sponged on Frost White 

shimmer paint. I did the same for the middle piece and the 

filler stems in Highland Heather card stock 

and the Granny Apple Green card stock leaves. 

I added all on a piece of Poinsettia Plush vellum paper 

layered on a piece of Highland Heather

 and the Gorgeous Grape base.

I wrapped some Snowflake Splendor iridescent ribbon

around and added a bow. 

No stamping on the front of this card;

 however, I did stamp sentiment inside before mailing.

Hope you have a beautiful weekend and 

thanks for stopping by!
