LILYPAD LAKE SAILBOATS ON A GRACEFUL GLASS "SEA"

Hello, Stampers!
     I must start by giving credit where it is due to Tracy Elsom (SU! Demo in Nova Scotia) for this wonderful idea for this vellum pattern.  As usual, I did change a couple of things - I changed the sentiment and added an additional sailboat.  Let's get started!

 Measurements
Thick White CS - scored horizontally or vertically
Whisper White CS - 2 x 5-1/2
Bermuda Bay CS - 2-1/4 x 5-1/2; 1-5/8 x 2-3/4 (for sentiment_
Graceful Glass Vellum in wave pattern - 2 x 5-1/2
Shimmery White CS - enough for sailboats and sentiment

 Instructions

  • Color wave pattern vellum all over with Dark Pool Party Blends - I used two layers of color
  • Color sections where desired with Dark Bermuda Bay and Light Night of Navy Blends
  • Lightly sponge liquid glue onto 2" WW strip and attach vellum; adhere these layers to 2-1/4" Bermuda Bay piece and then add to card front
  • Stamp sailboats from Lilypad Lake onto Shimmery White CS with Memento ink and color with Blends as desired - I used Smoky Slate, Real Red, Light Night of Navy and Dark Daffodil; mount onto vellum with Mini Glue Dots
  • Stamp sentiment from Lilypad Lake on Shimmery White and die cut with small label die from Lakeside Framelits; adhere to small Bermuda Bay strip and mount on card front with Dimensionals

STAMPIN' UP!® LET IT RIDE (IN THE BARN) - PLAYING AROUND, AGAIN

Image
Hello, Stampers!      Cloudy and gray yesterday; perfect for staying inside and playing with my stamps.  Let it Ride is a new set and I haven't used Barn Door in a while, soooo, what goes better with barns or stables than horses?       My barn wall is, of course, Wood Textures DSP - i couldn't get any easier than that.  The barn door (just cut in half) and mat are traditional Real Red, base is Very Vanilla.  I stamped the door in Early Espresso and also a few weeds or grains from Home to Roost at the bottom left. My chestnut Bay horse was stamped in Memento and colored with Dark Cajun Craze and Dark Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends.  The rope is just medium Baker's Twine.  Products are below.  Here's the inside. Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net

TURNABOUT STAMP - PLAYING WITH COLORFUL BACKGROUNDS

Image
  Hello, Everyone -     I recently watched a YT video by Jennifer McGuire, where she made this type of colorful background.  Believe it or not, it is created with one stamp, called a Turnabout (by Concord & 9th).  The Turnabouts have been around for several years! This link, among several others, although mainly providing info on a "jig" which helps with using these stamps, also shows how to use the Turnabout stamps and great tips.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tccPeTlqCY   It takes a few preparation steps (you will need a Misti or Stamp-a-ma-Jog), but then you can go ahead and do several backgrounds and let your color ideas go wild.  Have fun!

STENCILED BACKGROUND BLOOM

Image
 Hi, Stampin' Friends -     Yet another colorful "Bloom" dies card.  This time with a colorful, sponge stenciled background, as well.  This one is my favorite, so far - colors and patterns.  I added a little dimension with " Dimensionals under the leaf and the flower center.  I decided to stamp the sentiment on the front and leave the inside blank, except for a flower stamped on the inside from the retired Painted Harvest set by Stampin' Up!.     Supplies below.  Remember, stay curious!
