Mountain Reflection – Stampin’ Up! Card

3 Comments

Hello There,

I don’t know about you, but I am always so honored when a friend comes to me and asks me to make a card for someone special in their lives.  My neighbor, did just that.  She needed a sympathy card and one from the store just wouldn’t do so she asked me to create one.  I hope I filled that need with today’s card.

I pulled out the very beautiful Stampin’ Up! Hostess set, Simply Sketched.  Every image in this set is stunning, you can’t go wrong with it.   I wanted the card to have a peaceful feeling to it so I thought about what makes me feel at peace.  That would be water and mountains.  So here you have it, a Zindorf Zin card.

Of course, this card could be for any occasion, just change the sentiment.  That’s the great thing about scenes on a card, multiple uses.  I generally make my cards without sentiments and then add the sentiment inside when I know what I’m going to use it for.  🙂

The supply list along with how you can get the tutorial for this Mountain Reflection card free can be found below.

Grass Reflection – Stampin’ Up! Card

6 Comments

Hey There,

I took a break from watching these characters to make this reflection card.

It was tough pulling myself away from their antics.  They are now 9 days old and getting a few feathers on their wings.  I think they have doubled in size, it’s incredible!

I thought I would only torture two of the 6 chicks today with the camera.   The one on the left is an Easter Egger.  She will eventually lay eggs with either green or blue shells.  The chick on the right is a Marans and she will lay eggs with a really dark brown shell.   I don’t have names for them yet.  Still taking suggestions if you have one.  Psst . . . . I better name them fast, my brother in law decided they should be called chicken nuggets!

Enough about the Zindorf flock, my card today was done with the direct to paper method and features the Stampin’ Up! Wetlands stamp set.   The complete supply list for this card along with info on how you can get the project tutorial for free is below.

Toil & Trouble – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #631

5 Comments
Well it won’t be long and my all time favorite season will be here.  I adore everything about Autumn.  The harvest, holidays and especially the colors.
I have always loved Halloween and have such found memories of Trick or Treating.  I never once had a store bought costume.  We made up our own costumes back then.  I was a hobo more than once.  Stick with a bandana tied to the end of it, grunged up jeans and over sized flannel shirt, dad’s old hat and you were in business.  What homemade costumes did you come up with as a kid?  I would love to hear about them.
About today’s project, I’m starting my Halloween projects early this year.   Just because I love to make them and I am so excited to already have the new Stampin’ Up! Halloween stamps in hand.    This project has the new Stampin’ Up! sets, Halloween Bash and Toil & Trouble in them, Oooooooo  very spooky. . . . . .
The complete tutorial for this card can be found below for free.  On a personal note, please help keep this site free by supporting me, a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, by ordering your Stampin’ Up! products online through my online store.  My Family and I greatly appreciate your business, thank you.  It’s with all my heart I wish to continue bringing you these tutorials at no charge.

Started with a 4.5″ x 6″ piece of Whisper White card stock.  Punched a 1 3/4″ circle from the sticky part of a post it note and used it as a mask for the moon.
Brayered Pumpkin Pie ink at the top of the card stock.
Brayered Rich Razzelberry ink next.
Brayered Elegant Eggplant ink at the very top of the card stock.
Removed the moon mask and then stamped the sentiment stamp from the Toil & Trouble set using Stazon Jet Black ink.
Sponged Old Olive and then Basic Black at the bottom of the card stock.
Die cut one of the dies from the Apothecary Accents Framelits set using Sahara Sand card stock and the Big Shot Machine.  Note:  I cut two but decided to only use one.
Note:  Only used the one on the left.
Cut the bottom off of the die cut.  Sponged Basic Gray ink and Basic Black ink on the piece.
Stamped the crow on Basic Gray card stock using Stazon Jet Black ink.  Cut the image out.
Cropped the main image panel by taking 1/2″ off of both the right and left sides of the card stock.  It now measures 3.5″ x 6″.
Colored in just the middle of the stamp from the Halloween Bash stamp set using a Basic Black marker and then stamped it on the tombstone.  Popped the tombstone and the bird up on the main image panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Ripped the edge off of a 3.5″ wide piece of Basic Black card stock and popped it up at the bottom of the main image panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Sponged Basic Black ink around the edges.
Cut a 10″ x 6.5″ piece of Basic Gray card stock and folded it in half (card base).  Also cut a 4.75″ x 6.25″ piece of Basic Black card stock and punched the Chevron Border stamp down the left side of it.  Cut a 6.25″ x 3.75″ piece of Rich Razzelberry card stock.
Stamped the inside of the card base with the sentiment from the Halloween Bash stamp set using Stazon Jet Black ink.
Put the card together and added two Sahara Sand Candy dots.  Here it is finished.  🙂
May your day be spooktacular!
Until my next post. . . . . .
Huge Hugs!

Sunflower – Stampin’ Up! Card Tutorial #630

12 Comments

Hey There,

It’s kinda gloomy outside here in West Alexandria, Ohio today, but it’s not gloomy in my stamping room.  I brightened things up by creating this cheerful card using the beautiful Stampin’ Up! sets Sunflower and Backyard Basics.  I love, love, love nature stamps.  Just cannot get enough of them.

In today’s project I show how to use the emboss resist technique to get a realistic looking scene.  You can find the complete tutorial for this project below.

I think I should take this card out to show the girls (my hens), they did not want to wake up and come outside this morning.  They are probably up and running about now.  I’ll collect eggs here in a moment and check on them.

**************************************************
Now on with today’s tutorial. . . . .  . .
Project Supplies:
Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Sunflower (128736), Backyard Basics (129255) and Lacy & Lovely (item 132025)
Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Soft Sky and Basic Black
Ink: Stampin’ Up! Crushed Curry, Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie, Crumb Cake, Soft Sky, Early Espresso, Old Olive and Stazon Jet Black
Accessories: Stampin’ Up!  Sponges, Stampin’ Dimensionals, , Clear Embossing Powder and Heat Gun, Versamarker, Stampin’ Write Markers (Soft Suede, Sahara Sand, Tempting Turquoise, Island Indigo and Basic Black, Blender Pen, Stampin’ Chalk Marker and Daffodil Delight Grosgrain Stitched Ribbon

 

Started with a 4.25″ x 5.5″ piece of Whisper White card stock.  Stamped the butterfly from the Backyard Basics set using Stazon Jet Black ink.

 

To get a lighter shade of Tempting Turquoise I scribbled my marker on my Stamp-a-ma-jig plastic sheet and then picked the color up with a blender pen and colored in the butterfly.

Added Island Indigo marker with the Blender pen on the inside of the wings.

Added some darker Island Indigo on the very inside of the wings and the edges of the wings using an Island Indigo marker.

Colored the butterfly’s body in using a Basic Black marker.

Colored over the butterfly (being careful to stay inside the image) using a Versamarker.  Heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.  Now my image is protected and I can stamp over the image.

Loaded the Sunflower stamp with Crushed Curry and then using sponge daubers, sponged in Old Olive and Early Espresso right on the stamp.  Then stamped the image over the butterfly.  Wiped the ink off of the butterfly with a paper towel.

Sponged Soft Sky ink around the sunflower.

Added Sahara Sand marker to the points in the Old Olive area.

Sponged Crushed Curry ink on the sunflower petals.

Sponged Pumpkin Pie ink around the base of the petals.

 

Sponged Tempting Turquoise ink at the top of the card stock.

 

Cropped my main image panel down to 4″ x 5″.  Stamped the sentiment from the Lacy & Lovely stamp set using Stazon Jet Black ink.

 

Added a 6.5″ x 10″ Basic Black card base (folded in half) and a 4.75″ x 6.25″ Whisper White panel inside the card.

Also added a 4.75″ x 6.25″ Soft Sky panel, 4.25″ x 5.25″ Basic Black panel, Daffodil Delight Stitched Ribbon and using the new Stampin’ Chalk Marker I put dots on the butterfly’s wings.  Note:  This new Stampin’ Chalk Marker is the answer to our White Gel Pen woes, in my opinion  🙂  Item #132133

Here is the finished card measuring 5″ x 6.5″.

May your day be bright and cheery!

Until my next post. . . . . .
Huge Hugs!
