Dazzling Diamonds Dragonflies

Hi Crafters,

I'm mixing the old with the new for today's card and it also features a couple of my favourite Stampin' Up! dies and stamps.  Although I'll admit that I do have a lot of favourites!

I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock and simply stamped the leaves from the Oh So Eclectic stamp set all around the outside edge in Lemon Lime Twist and Old Olive.  I cut the dragonflies from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and adhered with some Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.  The sentiment at the top is stamped from the You Move Me stamp set in Old Olive onto Old Olive cardstock and I attached with a couple of staples.  To create the banner shape I used a die from the Bunch of Banners Framelits set but you could easily do this with a pair of scissors.  Cut up the middle and then come in from each side to create the points.

Do you have an favourite returning set that you love to use with one of the new stamp sets?  I'd love to know, so leave me a comment.

Happy crafting,
Rachel x

Embossed Thank You

Hi Crafters,

I have a double whammy for you today!  A card and matching tag set featuring some new Stampin' Up products.  You can earn the Thank You stamp set or ribbon for free with any order of £45.  However, if you spend £90 you can choose both for free!  The ribbon is super quality and comes in gold and silver.  Perfect for any project.

I started by inking a piece of Shimmery White cardstock in Blushing Bride.  I added the heat embossing in gold by sprinkling the powder all over and heating from underneath.  This takes a little longer to melt but it means the powder doesn't blow off.  Just be careful not to scorch the cardstock by holding the heat tool too close.

Next, I heat embossed the lovely Thank You in gold onto a piece of vellum.  Stampin' Up's vellum is unlike any other vellum!  It is amazing!  Be sure to check it out soon - you won't be disappointed.  I added Tear & Tape to the ribbon to adhere the vellum to my card.  I finished off by using the Bitty Butterfly punch and one of the new gorgeous papers from the Falling in Love Designer Series Paper.

I created the matching tag using the Scalloped Tag punch and added one of the Detailed Dragonfly die cuts in gold foil.  The sentiment came from the That's the Tag photopolymer stamp set and I used the the smallest die from the Bunch of Banners framelits to cut it out.  You can find a full supply list at the bottom of this post.

I would like to enter this card/tag into the SUO Challenge #166 - All Kinds of Embossing

Happy crafting,
