Stampin' Up! Wrapped Bouquet Bundle

 You all know that I love black & white cards.

Check out this one!

I used the 'Wrapped Bouquet' Bundle.

 This is a totally Susie card.

But look at how I stepped up this card......

 On the top one I stamped directly onto the Basic White card stock.

On the bottom one I stamped onto a piece of Basic White card stock, 

die cut it out & then popped it up with dimensionals onto the Basic White layer.

I added in some black leaves that I die cut out. 

And I also colored the flowers, added some Wink of Stella over them 

& put a small pearl in the center of each flower.  

 So which one do you like better?

I think they are both very pretty!

The top black & white one is simple, yet elegant & simple to make.

The colored one is gorgeous, but does take a few more supplies & time to make.

 Don't you think that coloring the flowers gives this an added pop.

Here are the supplies & measurements.

card stock:

• Basic Black- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 5 1/2"- fold in half for card base

Stampin' Up! Rainbow Glimmer Paper

 

WOW!  Look at this!

 

I needed a birthday card last night & decided to play with some 

products that I hadn't used yet!

Check out these COOL Bravo Dies. 

Where did they come from?

They are the French version of our Happy Dies.

Bravo Dies- #152740= $30.00

on page 178 in the Annual Catalog.  

 I used the Stitched Stars dies for the top swirly stars

& cut them out the Rainbow Glimmer Paper!

NOTE:  The center of the stars did cut out- but I stuck them back inside

the stars to make them solid.

 

Underneath the BRAVO words I added some Artistry Blooms DSP.

Isn't this a bright & cheery card that could be used for many different occasions-

birthday, congratulations, retirement, graduation, etc.

 

Here are the measurements & supplies.

stamp set:  none

card stock:

• Thick Basic White- 4 1/4 x 11"
• Melon Mambo- 4 x 5 1/4"

Check it out.....

This is what the card looked like before I added the strip of 

Melon Mambo BRAVO over the top of these Mango Melody ones.

 

So which do you like better?  

The Mango Melody words?

OR the Melon Mambo words?

I like the Melon Mambo layered over the top, as I think it makes the card pop more!

 

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!

Happy Stamping!

Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch

Oh wow-it is SIMPLE SATURDAY!!!

Look at today's simple card I have to share with you!

 

Can you believe that I used the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch

to make these cut little Jelly Fish!

 

Check out this super simple, yet adorable card!!

A SU! demonstrator from the UK- Sara Sayers

had a jelly fish card posted in one of our demonstrator groups.

I just thought it was so cute- 

so this is my version of Jelly Fish!

I used the Whale of A Time DSP in the Annual Catalog on page 150.

The Jelly Fish are the top of the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch,

punched out of Rich Razzleberry card stock!

And I used the Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon

& heated it with my Heat Tool to curl it- for their tentacles.

NOTE:  DO NOT HEAT TOO MUCH- as it will completely melt the ribbon.

I just love it when you can think outside of the box

& create something totally different with a product!

Here are the supplies & the measurements-

stamp set:  'Waterfront' (words); 'Sweet Ice Cream'- dots on the Jelly Fish

card stock:

• Shaded Spruce- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 5 1/2"- fold in half for card base
  
• Rich Razzleberry- 1 3/4" strip- punch out 2 ice cream pieces & stamp dots onto them for the Jelly Fish
  
• Basic White- 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card
  

designer paper:  Whale Of A Time DSP- 4 x 5 1/4"

ink:  Memento (for words); Blackberry Bliss (for dots on Jelly Fish)

other:  Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon; dimensionals; tear & tape (to hold the ribbon tentacles on); Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch

I hope you have a SPECIAL Saturday!!
