Stampin’ Up! Ornate Garden So Sentimental!

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Garden So Sentimental!

Hey there! Today I have another creation with the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper. I paired it with a fun fold and the So Sentimental Stamp set and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies:

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps2

This card is a 4" x 11" strip of Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper adhered to a 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" Basic Black card base, scored at  3 1/4" and 8 1/2" to create the front flaps. The flip side of this paper is white with gold embossed blooms, so I added a  1 1/4" x 4"strip of the gold embossed side  to the top flap, added a 1/4" x 4" Basic Black strip, then added the So Sentimental greeting cut with a Sweetly Stitched Die and layered on another Sweetly Stitched Shape. I added a single Gilded Gem and a knotted piece of 3/8" Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon (I know the supply list says it is 5/8", but that is a typo in the program I subscribe to, it really is 3/8"!)

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped another sentiment from So Sentimental on white, then cut it with another Stitched So Sweetly Die.

I just wanted you to see how cute this rectangle is cut with one of those dies!

Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy Ornate Style!

Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy Ornate Style!

Hey there! The card I'm sharing with you today was created from an inspiration I had while I was taking a power nap yesterday afternoon. I woke with this idea burning in my brain, so here's my card!

Stampin_up_night_of_navy_ornate_style_carolpaynestamps1

I stamped the floral spray image from Ornate Style on the Whisper White layer before embossing with the Ornate 3D embossing folder. I then cleaned my stamp and stamped it on vellum to heat emboss with white powder. I then used my Paper Snips to cut out the individual daisies. After coloring the backsides with Light Night of Navy and Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends, I popped them onto their place on the floral spray with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin_up_night_of_navy_ornate_style_carolpaynestamps3

I added pearls to the remaining flower centers.

Stampin_up_night_of_navy_ornate_style_carolpaynestamps4

I used a Night of Navy Stampin' Write Marker to pull out just the "Prayers" from the Positive Thoughts sentiment "Hugs Prayers Love" before embossing with the folder.

Stampin_up_night_of_navy_ornate_style_carolpaynestamps5

Inside I used a sentiment from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set.

Hey there stampers! Today is one of my favorite days of the month, Stampers Dozen Blog Hop day!

I combined two sets, Free As A Bird and Music From The Heart, with  Balmy Blue and Blushing Bride, and Bird Ballad Designer paper on both!

Stampin_up_free_as_a_bird_zfold_carolpaynestamps1

After stamping with Tuxedo Black Memento, I colored the birdies with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.

Stampin_up_free_as_a_bird_zfold_carolpaynestamps2

The January-June 2020 Mini Catalog set, Music From The Heart provided the musical images and sentiment.

Stampin_up_free_as_a_bird_zfold_carolpaynestamps5
After I made both a Blushing Bride and this Balmy Blue version I couldn't decide which one I liked best!

Stampin_up_free_as_a_bird_zfold_carolpaynestamps7

The Stitched Nested Labels dies are the best!

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Style Stained Glass Vellum!

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Style Stained Glass Vellum!

Hey there! While I was playing with the stained glass technique and the Ornate Style stamp set, I created a second card. This one is Smoky Slate with the Buffalo Check background heat-embossed with white and the floral spray is cut out with an Ornate Layers die.

Stampin_up_buffalo_vellum_carolpaynestamps1

I colored all of the embossed blooms on the backside of the vellum, using both color tones in the Stampin' Blends Combo packs!

Stampin_up_buffalo_vellum_carolpaynestamps4

I just want you to see the gorgeous detail of this frame cut with an Ornate Layers die! I ran it through my die cutting machine once cutting-side down, then flipped it to cutting-side up and ran it back and forth again. After I rolled the die brush over it most of the pieces fell out, leaving only a few to finish poking with the paper-piercing end of the Take Your Pick tool.

Stampin_up_buffalo_vellum_carolpaynestamps6

I used a combination of sentiments from Positive Thoughts and Ornate Thanks, then stamped part of the floral spray with Petal Pink ink.

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Garden Easel!

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Garden Easel!

Hey there!  Today I have the latest card I've created with the Ornate Garden Suite, an easel card. I love making easels!

Stampin_up_ornate_style_easel_carolpaynestamps2

I gold heat-embossed the large spray of blooms from Ornate Style on Very Vanilla, then colored with Light Old Olive, Dark Daffodil Delight, Dark Poppy Parade, Dark Cajun Craze, and Dark and Light Rococo Rose Stampin' Blends Markers. I used the Terracotta Tile 1/4" wide ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack. The color is so rich, it almost looks like velvet to me!

Stampin_up_ornate_style_easel_carolpaynestamps5

I popped up the Classic Label-punched sentiment on the easel-stop created with an Ornate Layers die.

Stampin_up_ornate_style_easel_carolpaynestamps6

Inside I stamped the floral spray with Soft Suede to mimic the gold embossing color on the front. I put a layer of Mint Macaron behind the vanilla sentiment layer to pull the color from the front designer paper.
