Feeling Tropical

 Hello, crafty friends. Today, I have a floral creation to share with you using the retiring Pretty Perennials Bundle (item 156234) with the new Layering Diorama Dies (item 155565).

I so love the Pretty Perennials Bundle and will be sad to see it retire on June 30th.  There are so many pieces in this set that the flower combinations are endless.  After working with this set for my card class HERE, I made a template of each image to be used with my Stamparatus using a thick piece of cardstock.  It makes stamping quick and easy and is stored it in my stamp set.

Being a Demonstrator for as long as I have been, I was attracted to the Layering Diorama Dies since they are so different.  Stampin' UP! has an excellent example on page 12 of the Annual Catalog for you to see and it quickly became a new addition to my craft room. :)
This is only my second time using the Layering Diorama Dies, and I am happy to say that I like them.  For my first go, I only used one layer for a card I made HERE, but I ventured out this time to two layers for this card. lol

My tip for you: Add Dimensionals to your die cut Layering Diorama cardstock pieces and your images around it will really pop.

Another cool stamp set that you may have overlooked in the Annual Catalog is the Inspired Thoughts stamp set which is offered as a bundle as well.  It contains only sentiments that are very versatile that can be paired with the Inspiring Canopy Dies- or any stamp set for that matter.

And don't discard your die cut out areas from the front of your card using the Layering Diorama Dies!  Use them to finish off the inside of your card.  Now I think it looks tropical, don't you? So cool.

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.   For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears .  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous.  For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies. I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
