Pink Blossoms in Bloom Card – Stampin’ Up!

I have another beautiful floral card to share with you today. Can you tell I’m on a flower power buzz? This is one is my Pink Blossoms card. I love how happy and yes pink it is!!

This card is so happy and it is perfect to cheer up someone who is feeling under the weather. I have a cousin back in South Africa who has just had a spinal fusion operation. I wish I could send her this card. Unfortunately, the postal system back home is not the best so I have to send it to her virtually.

The stamp set is Blossoms in Bloom. I’ve stamped in two colours of pink, Petal Pink and Melon Mambo. I’ve off set the stamping to create this shadow effect. This is really easy to do with the Stamparatus stamping platform.

Pink Cat Card – Nine Lives – Stampin’ Up!

I am calling this my Pink Cat Card. The pink is Melon Mambo which is one of my favourite pink colour. In this card, it is combined with cats which I adore.

I love cats and dogs but mostly cats. I have been through several periods of poor mental health and still suffer from anxiety. Cats are a great source of comfort for me. I feel safe and accepted by them. When I saw this set, therefore, I knew it was one for me.

Nine Lives is a two-step stamp set. You can stamp the cat as an outline, with patches or with stripes. The Stampartus comes into its own for stamps like these. The cat does have a matching punch but I’ve used it here.

Broadway Birthday – Wish – Birthday Card

I have a bright and cheerful birthday card to share with you today. This card uses the Broadway Birthday stamp set and matching Broadway Lights dies. This is another set I’ve had for a few months and not used. I, therefore, felt the time was right for it to makes its debut performance.

Melon Mambo is one of my favourite colours and here I have combined it with another favourite, Bermuda Bay. I am totally in love with the combination. The wish sentiment is bold and bright and very much my style. Big and bold focal images make for easy cards with a great wow factor.

I have used a white gel pen to make the stitching lines and to give accents to the balloons. I think it really lifts the piece. The clear epoxy droplet on the dot of the I give it some real bling.

At this time of the year, the focus is on Christmas Crafting but this can mean we forget we still need cards for many other occasions. I, therefore, plan to scatter some non-Christmas projects in my videos right up to Christmas.

Pop of Petals Congratulations Card

I have a beautiful floral card to share with you today. It uses the Pop of Petals stamps set and matching punch. This card does pop and is a lovely bright congratulations card for any flower lover. I love flowers and feel sad as the flowers start to die and Autumn comes. This card can keep them alive.

I love the pinks in this card. They are Melon Mambo, Rococo Rose and Lovely Lipstick. These colours all work so well together. I’ve given this card some bling with rhinestone centres for the flowers.

These little flowers from the Pop of Petals set are a great way to use up all those scraps we have lying around our craft rooms. A card like this one is great for children to make as they can stamp all the flowers and punch them out. They can have great fun arranging and glueing down all the flowers and leaves however takes their fancy.

Rose Birthday Card – A Beautiful Friendship

I am sharing this beautiful rose birthday card with you today, which is made using my favourite colour, Melon Mambo. I love this pink as does my mother. The vibrant bold colour shouts out to you.

Rose Birthday card using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set from Stampin' Up! — Floral Birthday card using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set from Stampin’ Up!

I have used the Beautiful Friendship stamp set from Stampin’ Up! which is a gorgeous stamp set with a lovely mix of images and sentiments. I love the two rose like images that I have used here. Normally roses aren’t my favourite flower but I do love them on this card.

We have a beautiful climbing red rose outside the front door. This year, it has flowered the best of the 4 summers we have been in Lincoln. It was packed with gorgeous big red roses and of course lots of thorns!!

I like this card as it is so simple to make. It really is just ink, stamps and paper. I have stamped the floral images using ink pads but they could have equally have been stamped using the Stampin’ Write markers. I have used the markers again to stamp the leaves. The markers are very useful as I can use them to colour in, stamp and watercolour paint. I love tools that are so versatile and give me more “bang for my buck”.

I had a look online and found out that white roses stand for purity and innocence. In total contrast, a red rose means passion and love whereas a pink rose stands for appreciation or perfect happiness. I felt this was symbolic for a birthday card. A birthday is a day that hopefully brings you happiness and a day to appreciate that you have made another year.

I have a video and supply list below as usual.

I want to thank you for stopping by and until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!
