Simply Succulents

Hello, crafty friends. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebration! Today, I am excited to share a new creation using a bundle in the 2021 Mini Catalog called Simply Succulents.

Succulents are quite the trend right now and making a few creations using a trendy bundle is so fun! :) 

The Potted Succulents Dies has some nice greenery pieces to add to your stamped images and also makes a beautiful large die cut flower cluster (I will share a creation using it in another post).  But for now, lets talk about this creation:  I stamped 3 large and 2 small succulents in Memento Black ink and colored them with Mossy Meadow, Granny Apple Green and Seaside Spray for the 3 larger flowers, and Mossy Meadow and Old Olive for the 2 smaller flowers.

I added some die cut greenery using Mossy Meadow cardstock and placed my "plant" into a Basic Black and Smoky Slate colored pot.  My potted plant was then layered onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock that was embossed with the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder. 

Next, I layered all of this onto another piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock followed by a piece of the Oh So Ombre DSP which is a FREE Sale-a-bration product from the 2021 brochure.

    Succulents certainly have been a popular trend, haven't they? Yours are fabulous, Annette, "planted" in the silver pot! Beautifully colored and great design with the tilted panel and pretty embossed layer!

Quilt card

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home.  I added the embossed flower using  the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue .  These two stamp sets work well together.  The flower petals were made with  the Floral Frames Framelits die.  I will probably store these two sets together. : )  Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb. Folder, Pool Party SAB button and Whisper White Bakers Twine. Enjoy your day!  I have limited time to create my youngest child's birthday card...which is tomorrow!  Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies !  How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe.  I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words   Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer.   I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies.    I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
