Stampin’ Up! Symbols of Fortune Anniversary!

Stampin’ Up! Symbols of Fortune Anniversary!

Hey there! I have a really pretty card to share with you today created with the Artistic Dies, Symbols of Fortune Specialty Designer Paper, and the Love & Happiness stamp set!

I started with a Soft Succulent base, then layered on 1" wide strips of Symbols of Fortune Specialty Paper. After I had then adhered the way I wanted (using liquid glue so I had a bit of "wiggle-room"), I then used my paper snips to trim the edges flush with the edges of the card base.

I cut the beautiful leaves from the Artistic Dies with Basic White card stock, then adhered with tiny dots of liquid glue. The row of three tiny pearls just added the perfect touch!

I added another partial strand of leaves to the lower right side, then heat-embossed the anniversary greeting from Love & Happiness with white embossing powder. Three more pearls and the card front was done!

Inside I used two more sentiments from Love & Happiness and added 1/2" wide strips of Symbols of Fortune Specialty to pull it all together.

Some of the Love & Happiness sentiments are so finely sized that a zoom is needed to be appreciated!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked!

Hey there! I had a request to make a card with the Artistically Inked bundle for a party hostess, so I created this card for her party:

IMG_2837 (2)

We stamped the blooms and leaves on Shimmery White paper with Polished Pink, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, and Soft Succulent ink using a stencil as a guide. (I will show you how I did it at the end of this post). I cut the intricate design from Gold Shimmer Vellum (found in the Holiday catalog) using an Artistic Die. I adhered the vellum over the stamped images with glue dots.

IMG_2838 (2)

Inside I stamped a sentiment from the Sunny Sentiments stamp set.

IMG_2839

To create the stencil I cut scrap paper with the same Artistic Die that I used to cut the Gold Shimmer Vellum, then used just the remaining paper part with the intricately cut part discarded. I held it in place over the Shimmery White layer and then used it as my guide for stamping the different-sized blooms and leaves.                                               

IMG_2780 (3)

This is a very pretty, watercolor-ish look even without the Gold Shimmer Vellum overlay!

IMG_2782 (2)
We added the greeting from Artistically Inked, stamped with black ink on a 1/2" wide strip of Shimmery White card stock.

This was a quick and fun card to make!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Imbedded Embossing!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Imbedded Embossing!

Hey there! Today I have my 16th and final post featuring the Artistically Inked Bundle. After today I will be playing with other stamps, dies, papers, etc., that I have recently ordered from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog!

My card today features Pale Papaya and Polished Pink with the Imbedded Embossing technique:

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_sponged_edges_carolpaynestamps1

I stamped the large bloom with Pale Papaya ink on Pale Papaya card stock, adding Polished Pink ink over the Pale Papaya ink on the stamp using a Sponge Dauber BEFORE stamping on the card stock. I cut out the large bloom and the smaller ones stamped with Polished Pink on Pale Papaya with Artistic Dies.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_sponged_edges_carolpaynestamps2

Here's an up-close of the Imbedded Embossing. After cutting the intricate Pale Papaya blooms with an Adhesive Sheet on the back using the Artistic Die, I adhered to the Pale Papaya layer using the adhesive sheet. I then ran the entire layer through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine inside the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder. I then lightly added Polished Pink ink with a Blending Brush.                                                        

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_sponged_edges_carolpaynestamps3

The Polished Pink 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon perfectly compliments the card, as does the Champagne Rhinestones I used for the flower centers.  The greeting is from Tasteful Touches.                                                                                                                                                                                             Stampin_up_artistically_inked_sponged_edges_carolpaynestamps4

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Gilded Alcohol Background!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Gilded Alcohol Background!

Hey there! I'm back today with another alcohol ink blended background, but this time I added gilded leafing to the raised edges of the vellum! Gorgeous!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps1

I cut the bloom from a piece of Gold Metallic paper, then added Gilded Gems for more sparkle. I also used Gold 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps2

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Peaceful Moments. I inked the bloom first with Fresh Freesia and added Polished Pink with a Sponge Dauber before stamping on the lower corner and on the envelope.
Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps4

After creating the background on the vellum using Stampin' Blends and 91% rubbing alcohol I embossed the layer with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing folder. I then lightly rubbed the raised embossed ridges with a Versamark ink pad, sprinkled with Heat & Stick Powder, and then gently heated with a Heat Tool. Immediately after heating I pressed the layer into my container of Gilded Leafing, rubbing and brushing away the excess with a medium-t0-soft brush.  You need to be careful to just barely touch the Versamark pad to the raised ridges of the layer or you will end up with a blotchy mess like this:

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Pretty Flowers!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Pretty Flowers!

Hey there! I seem to be on a birthday card-making kick lately, and it continues today with this Soft Succulent/Basic White version featuring the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder:

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps1

I adhered an Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Basic White card stock before cutting with the Artistic Die. Adhesive Sheets make adhering intricate die-cuts a snap!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps2

I added subtle color the the embossed Soft Succulent layer (on the left) by rubbing my Versamark ink pad on the negative side of the embossing folder before running through the machine.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps5

I punched one end of the greeting strip with the Lovely Labels Pick-a-Punch. Soft Succulent 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and Genial Gems complete the soft, inviting look.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps3

I used another Happiest of Birthdays sentiment inside the card. I used another die-cut as a stencil to add Soft Succulent ink with a Blending Brush to both the inside layer and the envelope.
