Pretty Peacock 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock Archives

Hey Guys!

So, Stampin’ Up! has NEW product we can buy now from the upcoming catalog! Of course, I HAD to buy it, I mean twist my arm a little harder. 🙂 Here is a video you can watch to see the full Suite.

I have made three cards, today I am sharing with you one of them.

It is funny how you start out with one idea in your head, and it morphs into something else. The first thing I did was do the scallop edges on the top of a piece of Pretty Peacock, I didn’t realize at first that it was a border die…once I figured that out (duh) I ran it through again to make a strip so both edges are scalloped.

Then, I thought I would use one of the small dies to put in the middle. Well, that turned out very pretty!

Now what to do with it? There was a strip of the Noble peacock Foil sitting next to me, Put it behind the image and that was great! Then I thought that the embossing folder would be so pretty using that same foil paper, and it was! But I needed it to pop, so I got my StazOn black and rubbed it over the flowers in places to get it to shine! Well? What do you think?

As always, here are the particulars for this card:

Stamps:
Ornate Thanks

Inks:
StazOn Black (the Memento won’t stick to the foil)
Versamark

Paper:
Granny Apple Green 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
Pretty Peacock 5 1/4″ x 4″, 2 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
Noble Peacock Foil 4″ x 1″, 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″, scrap for leaves I got from die

Misc:
Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder
Noble Peacock Rhinestones
Glitter Black Embossing Powder
Ornate Borders Dies
Ornate Layers Dies
Liquid Glue

I’ve lagged behind on my blog posts, so sorry! Who says that if they had ‘enough time’ they would get a ton done!? Well, WE all have time now, what have you been doing with that time? I AM stamping, tried out Zoom (great tool for keeping in touch and getting to SEE everyone!), been watching a ton of tv……How about you?

Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. We are lucky, my husband and I can work from home, but our Son’s job wants him to come in and it is NOT a crucial job. He feels like he HAS to go since he needs to pay his bills. 🙁

Please come back and visit!

Hey Guys!,

I LOVE when the new CAtalog comes out by Stampin’ Up!! I was drawn to the set Sailing Home as soon as I saw it! If I had my way, I would go visit every Lighthouse! Since I can’t do that I will stick to making cards using them!

Here is a card I did NOT CASE, I came up with it! Hope you like it! Here it is:

I did a video showing how I made this card, you can find it here. I made my own cloud template and am offering it to those who order from me! This uses a LOT of new goodies! Sailing Home comes in a Bundle (which if you buy you will get 10% off!!). The rope knot is a die, the die the Thanks is stamped on is included, plus the sailboat is cut out with a die. There IS a die for the Lighthouse but I stamped and masked it. Go check out the video to see how I got the texture on the sand.

I hope you like my card! I always get so excited when I make something without CASE’ing it. I know the reason I don’t do it more often is that I am swamped with classes and don’t have the time. The nice thing is that YOU don’t have to come up with anything either. There are so many ways to get ideas that we don’t NEED to try and do it alone.

Below are the supplies used for this card in picture form, click on any of them to be taken to my OnLine Store! If you purchase from me OnLine, you can get the cloud template that I used for this card for a thank you! Or you can pick a card you like, I will add a little something from my favorites to send you also! It’s like a Grab Bag!! 🙂

Thank you for stopping by!
