Father's Plane

January 29, 2011 in ,
This card would be perfect for my dad for Father's Day except I showed it to him already! Growing up my dad took flying lessons and achieved his pilots license! I remember going flying with him a few times, watching the little houses and seeing my little corner of country from way up high!

Inspiration came from Splitcoaststampers January Creative Crew Challenge. The challenge was to use new items from the Occasions Mini catalogue. Plane and Simple was the perfect place to start! The compass is embossed in black and I cut the Night of Navy grosgrain ribbon in half, then pulled a few strings off to get that frayed edge. The dashes and triangle border had Bashful Blue then Not Quite Navy ink put onto the stamp before stamping.

Supplies
Stamps: Plane and Simple
Ink: Night of Navy, Not Quite Navy, Bashful Blue, Versamark
Paper: Night of Navy, Very Vanilla, First Edition Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Night of Navy 1-1/4" grosgrain ribbon, sticky strip, stampin' dimensionals, word window punch, Black embossing powder

Bright Flowers

January 27, 2011 in ,
I have always been challenged using bright colours! When Stampin' Up! announced the Colour Renovation back in July 2010 I really thought it would be easier for me to create cards using just the Brights Collection. Boy was I wrong.

For the above card I started with a Real Red base and added a Whisper White top note stamped with 2 flowers from the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set. Lay a piece of Daffodil Delight 1-1/4" grosgrain ribbon across the card, then a strip of Whisper White on top and drop a few pearls on. Voila!

Supplies
Stamps: Fifth Avenue Floral, Curly Cute
Ink: Real Red, Daffodil Delight
Paper: Real Red, Whisper White
Accessories: Daffodil Delight 1-1/4" grosgrain ribbon, sticky strip, pearls

    I'm absolutely loving the First Edition designer series paper! Wait, don't I say that every time I post a card using this paper? Oh man...

    Anyways onto the card. The music notes, encyclopedia paper, flowers and pearls all tie together to make this card look vintage. The pearls are so easy to use, they come with glue on them so all you need to do is peel and stick! Easy peesy! To get the music notes straight, here's a tip: use a handle (yup I finally bought one, you can see why in this post) and also the wheel guide helps too.

    Check back tomorrow for details on Sale-A-Bration (SAB), it starts tomorrow! Your chance to earn more free stamps and accessories! Sweet!
