Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack - Stampin' Up! 2021

Here is a sneak peak of part of a product line in the new Occasions Catalogue for 2021.  My photography is lacking; it is more vibrant in real life!  I have used the Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack together with the Dandy Garden Memories & More Cards & Envelopes.

The card base, green accent piece, the sentiment and the flowered focal piece were from the Dandy Garden products (2021 Occasions).  I cut up a card base from the Flowers for Every Season Memories & More Cards & Envelopes pack (annual catalogue).

Other products used:
Dragonfly Garden stamp set stamped off in Bumblebee Ink
Elegant Faceted Gems
Garden Green Baker's Twine (retired)

The new occasions goes live on Jan. 5, 2021

Toile Christmas - Stampin' Up! 2020

I love cardinals on Christmas cards!  They are festive and bright and a little piece of nature.

I have not spend nearly enough time card making as I should.  But this Toile Christmas stamp set sure puts one in Christmas crafting spirit!

I used Real Red card stock for the card base
Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper as a backdrop
Itty Bitty Christmas for the sentiment
Snowflake Sequins as an embellishment
Coloured with Blends

This picture shows the three little snowflakes I added as an embellishment.  To make this assembly go quickly, I set up the stamps on my Stamparataus and stamped away!  I did fussy cut the cardinal out, cutting off his feet; his feet were then stamped separately so that I didn't have to fussy cut those!  I then just glued the bird above his feet for a neater presentation.

Blessed Christmas Wishes to you all!

Jolly Gingerbread - Nov. 2020 Paper Pumpkin - Stampin' Up! 2020

These cards are made from contents of the Nov. 2020 Jolly Gingerbread Paper Pumpkin kit.  They are alternatives, which means I didn't follow the instructions, but instead made something different.  This card design came from a handout that came in the Paper Pumpkin box showing a couple of ideas made into cards from the kit.   I did change some of the design to suit products I already had on hand.

I love the non traditional colour of this card; ie: the Blushing Bride card stock.  Things that were not included in the kit are:

Blushing Bride Card Stock
White Ribbon from Flowers for Every Season Comb Pack
Linen Thread
Rhinestones Basic Jewels that I coloured with Blends
Winter Snow Embossing Folder and
Whisper White Card Stock

Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper - Poinsettia Dies - Stampin' Up! 2020

 

This pretty card was made for a swap; it was easy and fun to put together.

The flowers were fussy cut from two separate design sheets from the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper.  The gold sprigs were cut out with the Poinsettia Place dies.

Others elements used for this card are:

Early Espresso card stock for the base
In Good Taste Designer Series paper
Linen Thread
Itty Bitty Christmas for the sentiment
Gold Foil Sheets for the sprigs

Hope you are getting in the festive spirit; even if it is different than we would like it to be this year!

Thanks for stopping by!
