3 Step StampingTurtle Card

Let the stamps do the work for you on this simple turtle card! The Sea Turtle stamp set makes a beautiful impression. For the turtle, I stamped the smooth side of the stamp in Sea Foam Green, then flipped the stamp over to the image side and dabbed Summer Splash in a few place and stamped over Sea Foam Green image. Then inked again with Pretty Peacock in a few places on the stamp and stamped over the entire image again. It gives such depth and dimension. Sentiment is from Happiness Abounds stamp set.

Fun Center Flip Card

A fun center flip card. This is such an elegant design - inspired by a Sue Campfield post on pinterest. 

I will provide measurements for the center flip card below. I used the Forever Fern stamp set for these cards. 

We made these at my last card class workshop. 

Center Flip Card instructions: 

• Card base White CS at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". Patterned paper two strips approximately 1.5" x 5 1/2". 
• Center Flip White CS 11" x 2 15/16".
• Embossed piece for front of center flip White CS 2 1/2" x 5 1/2" embossed with folder of choice
• Miscellaneous die cuts to apply to front of center flip. 

To make the card adhere the two strips of patterned paper to outside edges of 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of white CS. Fold the 11" x 2 15/16" piece in half at the 5 1/2" mark and this will become the center flip. Adhere the backside of the center flip to the card base, the edges overlapping the patterned paper slightly. Then add embossed 2 1/2" x 5 1/2" piece to font of center flip and any other die cuts and sentiments. I used images and die cuts from Forever Fern bundle for the foliage, and the Stitched Nested Labels dies. Sentiments are from Unbounded Love stamp set. 

 

Poppies 2

For this card I used blending brushes to apply ink in strawberry slush and tangerine tango. Used SU stencil and applied lunar paste in Guppy (bright orange color). The poppies were stamped in memento black ink, then stamped background swash with watermelon wonder. Colored over poppies with alcohol ink markers. Used gold EP for sentiment "there's no one quite like you" from the retired "thanks a bunch" set.
 

Jungle Pals Case

I CASE'd this card from the SU sale a bration brochure for the Jungle Pals set. So easy and fun! I used the sentiment "wild about you" from the retired Animal Outing stamp set. It was for a card workshop. Alligator is colored with Parakeet Party Stampin Blends pens.
 

Embossed Birthday

Another card we made at a card workshop. Super simple happy birthday card for him or her. For the embossed happy birthday card, I slid the ink pads against the flat side of embossing folder (the side where the lettering isn't raised) and then embossed a white piece of cs. Added another embossed piece of white across the bottom and then tied the twine and added let's celebrate you tag.
