More Plaid Tidings with Love of Leaves

.

Hiya, Stampers!

Haven't posted in ages, and here I am doing several posts in one day.  Well, one of the reasons is that it is an absolutely gorgeous September day here and I have the laptop out on the screened porch!  Another is that I wanted to get caught up with my blog because I want to start looking online for inspiration and play around with some Christmas card ideas.

Yes, another Plaid Tidings* card!  This particular plaid is my favorite.  I think because it contains several colors:  Black, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry and Bumblebee.

We embossed the Bumblebee CS withSupplies below. the Pinewood Planks 3D embossing folder, lined up and adhered a 3" square of Rich Razzleberry CS cut with the largest scalloped square die, and cut through both layers with the largest leaf from the Stitched Leaves dies.  A 3" square of plaid DSP was added behind these layers with Dimensionals before layering onto the card base. 

We die cut leaves in Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Gold Foil and added them with Dimensionals.  The sentiment is not SU! and the heavy baker's twine is retired.  Any ribbon or twine would do.  Supplies below!

*15% off October 1-31

Happy Stampin’!

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.

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
