I was proud of this idea of a rainbow bridge made using the cloud punch. The highlights on the clouds are made using a white gel pen. The little kitty sitting under the bridge waiting for his owner is coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers.

It is always difficult making cards such as these but I hope this would bring comfort.

The rainbow bridge is a pastel rainbow and my colours are:

  • Petal Pink
  • Calypso Coral
  • Lemon Lolly
  • Soft Sea Foam
  • Balmy Blue
  • Highland Heather

measurements

  • Balmy Blue Cardstock – A6 Card Base – this is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm X 2 pieces

This is a simple design. I have just layered die cuts in complimentary colours finishing with a layer of pretty paper. The die set is Countryside Corners. The colours here are Moody Mauve and Bubble Bath. I do love the names Stampin’ Up! comes up with, don’t you?

I made this card in two colour ways. Which do you like best? Let me know in the comments below.

Most of the time we tend to use embossing folders with plain cardstock. I’ve used it here with the Distressed Gold speciality paper. It gives a great effect so different to using it with plain cardstock. I’ve used the Metal Plate embossing folder and it really gives this look with the Distressed Gold paper.

Making a Simple Sympathy Card – Hand Penned

Making a Simple Sympathy Card – Hand Penned – Independent Stampin’ Up Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This is a pretty card for a very sad occasion. My mother unfortunately had the need to send a sympathy card recently and this is what I came up with for her to send.

It uses the pretty Hand-Penned designer series paper (DSP) that is in the new catalogue. It has this lovely and light feel to it. Of course, there are matching stamps and dies in the suite. I love the sketchy watercolour feel. The sentiment is from an old favourite of mine “Peaceful Moments”. I am so glad it didn’t retire in May as I use it all the time. If you want to request a new catalogue just click here.

Simple “Thinking of You” Card Tutorial

Simple “Thinking of You” Card Tutorial – Rooted in Nature – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’m really happy with how this card turned out. It’s so simple but effective. The sentiment comes from the set “Rooted in Nature”. This is set that replaced our much loved but now retired “Lovely as a Tree” The little flowers in the corner are using the Small Bloom punch. To give it texture I used my stylus and piercing foam mat.

This card was also part of a colour challenge. The colours to be used were Pretty Peacock, Coastal Cabana & Terracotta Tile. I think they work well, don’t you?

measurements

  • Pretty Peacock A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Coastal Cabana – 14.35cm X 10cm

I love these layered flower sets. This one is called Art Gallery. I’m writing this blog a couple of days before Christmas. A friend of my mothers has gone into hospital for a knee replacement operation. I made this card to send to her and I thought I would share it with you. The epoxy clear gems in the centre of the flowers make the card pop and give it dimension.

  • Thick Whisper White A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Garden Green cardstock – 15.3cm X 8.5cm
  • Granny Apple Green Designer Series Paper – 15.3cm 7.5cm

Tearing Effect – Field of Flowers – Stampin’ Up!

I have a fun technique to share with you in this card. This using the tearing effect to create these ruffled edges that frame the focal image.

Tearing Effect - Field of Flowers - Stampin' Up!
Tearing Effect – Field of Flowers – Stampin’ Up!

This image is all one stamp. I’ve stamped in it Mossy Meadow, the same colour as the cardstock. I tore the cardstock and then cut everything down to the size I wanted. The ruffled edge of the Mossy Meadow looks like the rough edges of the grass. I think it works well.

The card seemed a little dull to me until I had the bright idea to add the red rhinestones. I think they bring the whole card together and give a lovely pop of colour. In my mind they are little red poppies in the grass verge.

  • A6 Mossy Meadow Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • In Good Taste Designer Series Paper – 14.35cm x 10cm

Thinking of Your Card

Hello again,

Today I have a gorgeous card using the Rooted in Nature stamp set. I love this set and it has matching framelits!!! This card can be a sympathy card or just a card to say I’m thinking of you.

This is a very simple card with a standard A6 card base and one additional piece of whisper white cardstock measuring 10cm x 14.35cm.

I love the blending of the yellows and oranges in this card. It’s one of my favourite parts of crafting; playing with colours

I hope you enjoy the card and video

Enjoy Being Creative
