ROOTED IN NATURE "FLORAL" - June 2019 Stamp Camp

Hi, Stampers!
     I cannot claim the clever use of these images as my own.  I've made only a couple of changes to the original I saw, I think, on Pinterest some time ago. If you follow me on Pinterest - Stamp with Sue - you'll see I posted several new cards on my SU! Rooted in Nature board while I was looking for the original of this "floral," because I do like to give credit.  Unfortunately, no luck - maybe you'll do better.  Anyway, let's get started!
Happy Stampin’!

Instructions
  • Card base is Whisper White Thick CS with a 5-1/4 x 4 layer of Flirty Flamingo and a 2 x 4 layer of Granny Apple Green offset to the left.  The top layer is 5 x 3-3/4 Whisper White.
  • Stamp the large and small skeletal leaf shapes as shown in Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green.
  • Using Vegas Gold Shimmer Paint and a Sponge Dauber, ink the tiny leaves image stamp and add between and on top of the "flowers."  In the same manner, ink and add gold spatter here and there with any stamp you have "inked" with Shimmer Paint.  You can use the retired Gorgeous Grunge, Waterfront, Perennial Birthday or any number of stamp sets that contain spatter images.
  • Use any sentiment you like, as this card is pretty generic.  The birthday sentiment above is from the Piece of Cake stamp set in Memento ink on Flirty Flamingo CS and punched out with the Classic Label Punch.  It is popped up with Mini Dimensionals.  
  • Stamp a couple of leaves and a sentiment on the inside and you're done!

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!

EASTER FUN

Image
  Hey, Stampers -      I wish I could say these bunny ears were my idea, but I saw a similar idea on Pinterest, here .  Of course, I had to change it up to hiding bunnies. I used the large Daisy punch for the ears.  I'll probably add some bling to the background - sequins, pearls, SU! Fun Flowers Resin Shapes, etc., any would be cute.  The greeting is from DRS Designs.     If you don't have the fringe-cutting scissors, it really looks just as cute, and a little faster to make, with just a couple of layers of curved-edge cardstock with the bunnies tucked in between. You can also use just about any embossing folder for the background - I just happened to have this pre-embossed piece of So Saffron in my scraps basket. Cardstock is SU!: Highland Heather, Balmy Blue, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral and Pear Pizzazz.  Happy Stampin’! Sue Duffy ~ mandsduffy@comcast.net
