I am a total sucker for floral stamp sets. I love them. Flowers do make me happy. I have endless photos of them. Beautifully Happy is a freebie I got from Sale-a-bration (SAB) this year. During SAB you can get a freebie from the SAB catalogue for every qualifying purchase.

It is a two-step stamping set. The stamps are so easy to line up and the Stamperatus makes the whole thing super easy. You could make this card in all colours of the rainbow. It would make a lovely set to give as a special gift.

I love wisteria. We have one that curves above the living room window. It looks beautiful every Spring. There is another one in a local village that covers the whole wall of a shop. This inspired me to make this card.

I’ve kept the colour palette quite simple here, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather and Old Olive. It makes me long for Spring and beautiful fresh flowers.

This little bag folds flat for easy storage. We made this in a recent card club and I wanted to share it with you as well.

This is a very simple card to make. The paper is the gorgeous Favored Flowers designer series paper (DSP). This is a freebie from Sale-a-bration. It is full of gorgeous florals that you can either use as a full sheet or fussy cut out to create lots of die cuts.

I’ve kept the design very simple so that the DSP is the focal point of the card. I tried adding various extra embellishments but they didn’t seem to add anything to the design so I left it clean and simple.

  • Fresh Freesia Cardstock – A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Basic White Cardstock – 14.35cm X 10cm

I love pink and blue as a colour combination. It’s one I find myself returning to again and again. This is the gorgeous Framed Florets bundle. The dies cut out not just the stamped images but also these lovely frames. These tiny hearts cut like butter. So easy and so pretty.

The floral images are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. The clean and light feel of this card really appeals to me.

I like big tags such as this one as they can double as a Christmas card as well. Two for the price of one, can’t be bad. This tag is actually the size of an A6 card front. I’ve rounded the top edges for some extra interest.

I’ve used the Painted Christmas designer series paper which makes a great background. The flowers and leaves were all stamped in one go and cut out together which means making this tag is easy and simple.

I’ve just discovered this technique. Yes, I know I’m late to the party. Can’t wait to try it out more. Double or even triple heat embossing adds a lot of depth and dimension to your heat embossing.

A few tips for you. You the stamparatus to stamp with as it makes sure that your placement for repeat stamping is accurate. Also, make sure your image is totally cool between embossing cycles. Finally, use your embossing buddy to make sure the powder only sticks where you stamp.

How Do I Heat Emboss? Simple Tips Tutorial – Focus Friday – Biggest Wish – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

During the month of October Focus Friday is going to be looking at Heat Embossing. In this post, we are learning the basics of heat embossing. Heat embossing is a very easy technique that always gives a wow effect to your card. It really feels like magic watching the dull powder, turn glossy and shiny.

There are a number of tips I want to give you. Remember practice makes perfect. You will need to use a “sticky” ink like Versamark to heat emboss. You need very little powder to achieve a great effect. I always use an embossing buddy on my paper before I start to get rid of any static. This means the embossing powder will only stick where there is ink. Lastly, let your heat tool heat up for 30 seconds away from your card. This means it will be hot already and the powder will take less time to melt. This reduces the chance of any powder blowing away.
