Super Quick Note Cards Two Ways with Bella & Friends from Stampin' Up! UK

I hope you are having a Happy Monday?

We have two of our Grandchildren staying with us (my son lives in the flat above our home) 

And with so many Kiddies having Birthday Cards, it is essential that you have a range of unisex quick cards that you can either have pre-prepared without the (Sentiment) or just whip them up in a flash.

Well that is exactly what I have for you today. I have used the Bella & Friends Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! as it's images are perfect for Children of  any age and gender.

Note Cards make the process even faster and cost effective, since there is no wastage

In the ecample aboove, I Stamped straight onto a piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock using Archival Black Ink Pad. This was then mat (layered) onto the Crumb Cake Note Card

In the card below, I have used the same stamp, different sentiment, but stamped straight onto the front of the note card.

The Sentiments in this stamp set, are perfectly scaled for note Cards. Some are large enough to die cut.
You could also add another stamped image to the inside of the card, & on the envelope, to tie everything in.

Stamp Set Showcase 2015 World Map meets For Your Country

Happy Fathers Day to all the Fathers out there!

I hope you are surrounding by your families, whether that is from a distance

or with you in person

Fathers are amazing people and I am delighted that we have a special day dedicated to fathers young and old, throughout the world!!!!

And with our fathers in mind, I am also aware that there will be many servicemen out there who are separated from their families today

I hope they know how ,much their families love and miss them,  hoping you return home safe and sound following your Tour of Duty

An d that goes for all fathers out there that are missing their families today.

And with that in mind, today's card is rather poignant 

The combination of the Dictionary background stamp (now retired) along with the

 WORLD MAP, 

GORGEOUS GRUNGE & 

FOR YOUR COUNTRY 

stamp sets

 this card just shouts out to those fathers out there around the world.

I used a combintation of Subtles Collection Classic Ink Pads

& Cardstock

Plus

Neutrals Classic Ink Pads and cardstock.

The card is heavily layered intentionally, as generally, Fathers Day cards are given in person, rather than posted, so no worries about postal rates.

Stamp Set Showcase 2015 From My Heart meets Dotty Angles & Petal Potpourri

Today I have a really Quick Sentimental Card for you with a mash up of retiring stamps, Spring/Summer Catalogue Stamps, and a stamp set that is rolling over to the forthcoming 2015-2016 Catalogue

For me it has a touch of vintage spring

If you don't already own the FROM MY HEART Stamp Set, you should! It is truly beautiful and one of my sentimental favourites.

BUT

Time is running out, as the retiring stamps (this being one of them) are only available whilst stocks last. To check it out, simply click on the Retiring banner below and it will take you straight to my store where you can view this stamp set and all the other retiring items, and purchase them too.

If you don't see something ... then it is already sold out ... so with up to 50% off on retiring products, you need to get over there with a hop skip and skedaddle! 

This was another fun card to make,

I began by trimming my Whisper White cardstock to size (the card shown is an A6, mat onto a slightly larger Whisper White panel, and then mounted on a White Card Blank.

You are only working with the smallest of the layers.

Begin by stamping the stamp of your choice from the From My Heart Stamp Set using Chocolate Chip Classic Ink Pad.

Next, stamp your background using the circle stamp from Dotty Angles first using Daffodil Delight, clean your stamp, and then stamp again using Old Olive Classic Ink Pad, ensuring you overlap the stamps.

Now you need to stamp a couple of flowers from the Petal Potpourri Stamp Set (in the Spring/Summer Catalogue & also comes as a bundle with the co-ordinating punch).

Stamp them onto Whisper White cardstock using Daffodil Delight Classic Ink Pad and then sponge the edges of the flowers using the same colour ink. Punch out the flowers.

Now to make the flowers dimensional. 

Snip between two of the petals to the centre of the flower. Apply a tiny piece of adhesive to the edge of one side and then overlap the petals (so you end up with one less petal). Use your bone folder to gently curl the petals. Thread a naturals button with linen thread and tie a bow. Use a few glue dots to adhere the button to the centre of the flower. Repeat with the second flower.

Stamp a couple of the small flowers, using Crumb Cake Classic Ink Pad and punch them out using 7/8" scallop circle punch. Attach a piece of Tea Lace Doily to the bottom of the card front, then attach the flowers to the card front using Stampin Dimensionals as shown.
