DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #247: Color Theory

Hello and welcome to this week's DOStamper Stars Thursday "Sketch Pad Challenge" #247 featuring Color Theory Memories and More Card Pack.  This creation was inspired by our STARS leader Dawn Olchefske as part of a Create and Play challenge for the STARS.  I love the precut double sided cards that can be used for card making, memory keeping or scrapbooking.  Here is my card.



 

Card Measurements:

Berry Burst Card Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Whisper White Layer 5 3/8 x 4 1/8

Crushed Curry Layer 5 1/4 x 4

Memories and More 3 x 4 and 2 1/4 x 4

TIP: I added two of the flower stickers over printed flowers to add texture and interest.  So easy to do with the sticker sheets that are included in the card pack.  My new favorite embellishment is the Glitter Enamel Dots, they are the perfect accent for this card.

DOStamper STARS Thursday Challenge #227: Sketch Pad Challenge featuring Dragonfly Dreams

Welcome to this weeks DOStamper Stars Thursday Sketch Pad Challenge.  I have been absent for several weeks and it feels good to get back into card making with the STARS.  This week my card is featuring the beautiful Dragonfly Dreams stamp set.  The dragonfly is stamped onto vellum and embossed with clear powder, a technique I just learned about.  The background behind the dragonfly is stamped onto white cardstock that is overlayed with the embossed vellum.

• Start with 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Basic Black cardstock folded in half for card base
• Stamped a piece of 3 3/4 x 4 Vellum with Crushed Curry ink and embossed with Clear Emboss Powder (Thanks, Miriam Bollanger for the tip)
• Use the background stamp and Crushed Curry ink to randomly stamp 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 Whisper White cardstock.  Be careful to stay at least a half inch from edges of paper.
• Use Fast Fuse to attach embossed vellum to the Whisper White cardstock (apply adhesive to corners only).
• Attach 1/2 inch Crushed Curry strips to sides and overlap with 3/4 inch Basic Black strips
• Stamp sentiment in Basic Black Archival ink attach with Stampin Dimensionals.
• Add favorite flowers, I chose Petite Petals and enamel dots for embellishments.  
• Use Tombow Multipurpose glue to adhere layer to card base   All done!!

DOstamper Stars Thursday Challenge #170 Cups and Kettles



Welcome to another DoStamper Stars Thursday Challenge.  This week it is a "Home Sweet Home" challenge.    

 



 

This week the challenge is to be inspired by the DoStampers Stars Thursday Challenge image.  When I see cupcakes or any type of cake I want tea.  I truly love a hot cup of tea and I adore the Cups and Kettles Framelits Dies it reminds me of my time serving in the UK.  You can find the Cup and Kettles Framelits Dies  in the Occasions Catalog that is until 31 May, 2016.  Having lived in England for several years so I knew I would have to add a bit of English Garden DSP from the annual Stampin' Up! catalog to this card as well.   Voila, tea and flowers you can't beat it.

DO Stamping Stars Thursday Challenge #169 Blog Hop

 

 

Once I saw this sketch I immediately knew I had to use the Serene Silhouettes stamp set.  It has been one of my favorites and it goes nicely with Wild Wasabi.  This is a very easy card to put together and it can be used for almost any occasion.  Standard card size, 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", with first layer cut at 4 x 5 1/4 and embossed with Decorative Dots.  The accent piece is from the All Blooms DSP (retired)measures 1 1/4" by  3 1/2".    I used Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the Serene Silhouette image and finished it off with some Wild Wasabi 1/2" seam binding.
