An Embossed Brick Wall with Birthday Blossoms Pansy Punch CASE Card Stampin' Up! UK

Only Five Days left before the new Catalogue Launch
Can you believe it? A Year has flown by!

Today I have a super simple and quick card to make using the Big Shot for some Dry Embossing with the Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)
There is a little stamping with the assistance of the Birthday Blossoms Embossing Folder. The Flowers were created by stamping onto Delightful Dijon  Cardstock using the Crushed Curry Classic Ink Pad.
The project has been co-ordinated with some Crushed Curry Bakers Twine and a few Basic Rhinestones.

If you haven't done any Dry Embossing before, trust me, it is super easy using the Die Cutting Machine (Big Shot).

Rubber Stamped Pool Party Balloon Celebration CASE Card Stampin' UP! UK

Today I am sharing with you a card I have CASED from the many creative ideas contained within the New Stampin' Up! Catalogue that launchest 1st June. But the good news, is that with the exception of the Peekaboo Peach Stampin Write Marker and Classic Ink Pad, you can reproduce this card now as the Balloon Celebration Stamp Set and co-ordinating Balloon Punch are rolling over into the new catalogue. So all you need to do is replace the Peekaboo Peach marker and ink pad with another Orange/yellow based marker such as Delighful Dijon, Crushed curry. Pumpkin Pie, Calypso Coral, or Daffodil Delight.

The Designer Series Paper, comes from the Regals Colour Collection 12" x 12" Stack, and picked the Night of Navy Dotty pattern, and used the Peekaboo Peach Marker with the brush tip, to colour in the dots.
The card base was made using Soft Sky and randomly stamped the smaller stamps in the set using Pool Party ink.
The sentiment was stamped using Night of Navy Ink and highlighted the Champagne wording using the Peekaboo Peach Marker.
I used just the dots stamp from the this Multi-Step Stamp Set, using Peekaboo Peach ink onto Whisper White Cardstock and punched out the balloon, popped it up using a Stampin Dimensional and popped at the top of the balloon string

My 9 year old grandson made one of these for his Sisters Birthday, and had great fun doing it, whilst I made our granddaughters card.
We have 3 grandchildren, and they all love crafting time with me, and they never cease to amaze me with their creativity!
