Echo's Mother's Day Card

I made this beautiful card with my Stampin' Up! Stippled Blossoms stamp set and I love how it turned out. It's kind of hard to see in the pic but the background is so soft and goes great with the flowers. Here's how to make it:

First cut a 6" x 9 1/2" piece of Stampin' Up! Melon Mambo card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" piece of pink for the middle layer and a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of white for the front layer.

Then create the background by double stamping (ink your stamp, stamp on a piece of scrap paper, then on your project without re-inking) the flower in Stampin' Up! Pink Pirouette ink. Next on another piece of white card stock stamp the first layer of each flower in Pink Pirouette ink then using a Stamp a ma jig stamp the second layer in Melon Mambo ink. Then double stamp the leaves first layer in Stampin' Up! Pear Pizazz then regular stamp the second layer with Pear Pizazz. Next cut the sentiment's background out of Melon Mambo card stock with a Spellbinder's Eyelit Circle die and the sentiment out of white card stock with a Spellbinders Standard Circles die. Then sponge the circle's edges and stamp the sentiment with Melon Mambo ink and a stamp from a Stampin' Up! Wreath of Roses set, attach the sentiment to it's background then to the front layer. Next cut out all flowers and leaves then attach them to the front layer with mini pop dots. Then attach the rhinestones to the flowers centers, attach the front to the middle layer then to the base and enjoy!

Wayne's Stippled Roses Card

I made this gorgeous card for my fiancee' Wayne and he loved it! I used my Stampin' Up! Stippled Roses and French Script stamps. I really like how it turned out because the colors are so deep and rich and the stamping over the script's a nice effect. Here's how to make it:

First cut a 6" x 9 1/2" piece of burgundy card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" piece of black for the middle layer and a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of white for the front layer.

Next stamp the script and sponge the edges of the front layer with Stampin' Up! Cherry Cobbler ink and stamp the roses in Stazon Jet Black ink. Then water color the leaves with a Stampin' Up! Garden Green Classic Stampin' Pad and an aqua painter by first going over the shaded areas with a darker shade of ink then the rest of them with a lighter shade. Next repeat the process on the roses with a Cherry Cobbler ink pad. When dry add the black ribbon, attach the front to the middle layer then the middle to the base and enjoy!

Seaside Thank You Card

I made this cute card for a neighbor that helped out around my house. Thank God he did 'cause I'm the most mechanically un-inclined person in the world LOL! I really like how it turned out. The colors look great together and Stampin' Up!'s Wetlands stamp set is perfect for masculine cards. Here's how to make it:

First cut a 6" x 9 1/2" piece of Stampin' Up! Sahara Sand card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" piece of Stampin' Up! Island Indigo for the first layer, and a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of white for the front layer.

Next sponge on Soft Sky ink across the top edge and blend it toward the center of the card stock panel. Then lightly sponge the bottom edge with Sahara Sand ink and blend toward the Soft Sky ink. Next use a mask with a straight edge to sponge the horizon in Island Indigo ink higher than the Sahara Sand color. Then lightly sponge Wild Wasabi ink up both sides of the panel. Next sponge the reed images in Wild Wasabi ink then the sandpipers along the water's edge and the sentiment in Early Espresso. Then wrap the twine around the front panel, attach the front panel to the middle panel then the middle to the base and enjoy!

Soft Swirls Mother's Day Card

I made this pretty card using my Stampin' Up! Soft Swirls stamp and the emboss resist technique. I really like how it turned out. Emboss resist is one of my favorite techniques and I love the colors. Here's how to make it:

First cut a 6" x 9 1/2" piece of dark purple card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 4 1/2" x 5 3/4" piece of turquoise for the middle layer and a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece for the front layer.

Then heat emboss the background on white card stock using Versamark ink and white embossing powder. When cool sponge Stampin' Up! Elegant Eggplant and Tempting Turquoise ink over the embossing. The embossing resists ink so it's easily removed by wiping over it with a lightly water spritzed soft cloth or paper towel. Next attach the background to the middle layer and the ribbon around both layers. Then cut out the sentiment with a Spellbinders Labels Four Die, sponge it's edges and stamp the sentiment with Elegant Eggplant ink and attach it to the front layer with mini pop dots. Next cut out the butterfly with a Stampin' Up! Butterfly Thinlits die, attach it to the front layer with a mini pop dot, attach the middle layer to the base and enjoy!
