Sunflowers

One of the product Suites I absolutely love in the Sept to Dec catalogue is the Sunflower Fields Suite.

I was particularly drawn to the designer papers as I'm a paper addict.

This particular layout I CASEd from Sunny Day Stamping.

With a larger panel on the front, this layout is perfect to show off the dsp. It becomes the hero of the card.

With the paper having a busy pattern, it means it needs minimal accents to finish off.

So a simple stamped sentiment, something bright and cheery to match the dsp and a few small die cut sunflowers and easy peasy.

Thanks to this suite of products, I have become fond of Cajun Craze. For years it was a colour I couldn't get on board with, now I'm realising it's such a warm colour and is not only beautiful on its own, it's stunning when paired with similar notes.

I'm really happy with this card and I look forward to sending it on its way soon.

Seeing Stars!

The Shining Stars Dies are a very timely addition to the Product of the Month offering.

They are perfect for christmas crafts and can be purchased for only $9.00 on a qualifying order.

Needless to say I think they are going to be extremely popular and I'm seeing so many gorgeous projects with them.

I had the idea for this card in my head for a while so I was eager to get this made when the dies arrived.

I started with a standard card base in Basic Beige and used Mossy Meadow as the layer.

I die cut a star in the mossy meadow layer and then layered a piece of Neutral Noel Specialty dsp behind it.

I love the stitched look and for some reason I assumed the dies came with that, they don't so I created my own by using a white gel pen to add little dots around the star.

Out came the Hot Foil System who I've named "Olive" and used Gold Foil on white for the sentiment.

A few gold stars from the Magical Christmas Hot Foil Bundle which also does the sentiment, a bit of Linen Thread and I'm really happy with this card.

If you don't have the Shining Stars Dies, trust me you need them. Its a set of 23 dies, all different sizes so they are perfect for scrapbooking and christmas ornament decorations as well.

Happy Birthday Butterflies

This one is a layout I go to quite a few times, as its easy and looks great!

All you have to do is change the colour combo up, the dsp for the background piece and your die cut element for the front.

I had purchased the Butterfly Flight Hot Foil Bundle, which comes with the Masks but I hadnt used them yet.

The hardest part was deciding which colour combo to go with to colour the Butterfly.

I love how this set is a Hot Foil Bundle, so you get to Foil first, then colour, in any colour combo you wish and then die cut them out...everything you need all in one bundle.

So with everything coordinating, it makes it an easy bundle to work with. When colouring with the masks, follow the numbers along the top and layer them in order to lay your colours on the butterflies wings.

You can change up the sentiment to stamp at the bottom, so this layout is quite versatile. I stamped this greeting in Secret Sea, it's just a bit softer than black.

I'm really happy with this card and I look forward to sending it to someone soon.

Christmas Presents

This card isn't so much about the dsp used, it's more about how easy this card is as well as all the benefits.

If anything, it demonstrates you do not need a tonne of expensive supplies to make great christmas cards.

You can use what you have in your stash and still create beautiful cards.

So here is what I learned:

Any colour combo will work, traditional or non traditional would look gorgeous.

You don't need dies to cut the "boxes". If you don't have square or rectangle dies, simple cut some shapes with your paper trimmer. So dies are not necessary.

ANY christmas themed dsp will work, its a great way to use up those odd left over scraps.

Really all you need is a good Bow Die. Mine unfortunately is not a Stampin' Up! die. I did source one online just for this card but it didn't cost a packet either.

With the sentiment, you don't have to foil, I was just tring to be fancy, you could totally just stamp and hand trim or die cut it out and pop up with dimensionals.

This card lends itself to alot of possibilities and no complication either.

You can choose to emboss the background with your fave folder or you don't have to do that either.

The card also didnt' take me all that long to make so this would be a great design to do in bulk if you tend to send alot of christmas cards.

I really love this card. I saw something similar on socials and knew I had to make my own version.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my festive card today.

Just fyi, the A Stitched Season DSP is currently in Last Chance!
