Detailed floral Thinlits Dies with a Sponged & Copper Embossed Handmade Gate Fold Card Using Stampin' Up! Products UK

Well do I have a super Handmade  Card for you  today
I made a version of this card for for a field of mine as our Wedding Acceptance
I made a matching tag, that I put out acceptance on.


I used a combination of Crushed Curry, Rose Red & Peekaboo Peach Ink Pads for the sponging onto Thick Whisper White Cardstock, and was then Heat Embossed using Copper Embossing Powder (so on trend this year).
After the heat embossing, I then die cut the front panels of the card base using the Detailed Floral Thinlits Dies, and ran that through my Big Shot using the Precision Plate.

A Moroccan Timeless Love Floral Phases Anniversary Card for my Hubby using Stampin' Up! Products

Today is a super quick tutorial as it is my Wedding Anniversary
We have been together 23 years, Marries for 16 Years
He is my Soulmate and Best Friend

And so this is his card for this year.

I began by using using a sponge brayer to add some subtle colour to the background with Dapper Denim Ink, to tie in the two halves of the card.

I used a combination of the Floral Phrases Stamp Set  and the Timeless Love Stamp Set to get the sentiment I wanted on the card front.
I also stamped  a sentiment inside the card

The designer Series Paper is called Moroccan & is why I chose to use Gold Ribbon to tie the two halves of the card together, and finally, used lots of teeny Basic Pearls to get more texture into the Card.

Suite Seasons Quick & Simple Dry Embossed Handmade Halloween Card in Emerald Envy and a touch of Ghoulish Grunge

Today I have a sneak Peak from the Autumn/Winter Seasonal Catalogue that launches next week
Any of you that are Stampin' Up! Guru's will recognise the Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF) as an item that is now retired, But I just HAD to get this Embossing Folder out of storage and dust off the cobwebs, as everyone begins their Halloween Preparations
Kids would LOVE to make their own Halloween Party Invites, and something simple like this is quick & easy, and a little supervision from an adult.

I decided to go with Emerald Envy Cardstock for the Card Base and dry embossed the card front.
I used a scrap of Very Vanilla Cardstock, and grunge'd it up using the netting stamp from the Ghoulish Grunge Stamp Set in Basic Grey Ink, and over-Stamped this with the Sentiment from the Suite Seasons Stamp Set in  Basic Black Black Ink

The sentiment was Die Cut using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies, and a Scallop Circle, Die Cut from Smokey Slate Cardstock. There were popped up but mounting each layer with Stampin dimensionals between, an then mounting onto the Card Base.
Finally, I added a Whisper White Panel to the inside of the card base for the you (or the Children) to write on,.

In This World Masculine Birthday Card using Stampin' Up! Products

Oh Boy, Is it hot or what?
Well, us Brits are not acclimatised for the hotter weather normally found in most of Europe
On top of that we are doing a Summer Clean of the house and grounds! 
Thank goodness we only do this twice a year he he

Anyway, it has meant I haven't posted as frequently as usual .... my apologies for that, 
But to compensate, I do have a super vintage style card for you 
Using the super dooper

IN THIS WORLD
Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!

I made this card for my Father in Law's Birthday
They live in rural Eire (southern Ireland) and although they built a new bungalow on their family's property, they kept the original Cottage that was home to the very many children that were born there over the generations
It is full of character. My Father In Law uses half of that cottage as his workshop
And this stamp set, so reminded me of that old cottage, with it's Boreen & a castle in the field behind their home.

The Birthday Sentiment comes from the 

BUILD A BIRTHDAY
 Stamp Set (also from Stampin' Up!)

I used a colour combination of 
Mint Macaron; Tip Top Taupe & Very Vanilla. 
The card was embellished with some of the new lush Burlap Ribbon - I LOVE it! and I am sure it will be used a great deal over the festive season.

I am now including the product item numbers on the Product List below this photo, to make ordering even easier for you, and my website link is there too
I have also included the dimensions of the cardstock that I used.
