Stampin' Up Blended Seasons Wedding Bells

Hello crafty friends!  
I am back with more from the Stampin' Up Blended Seasons Bundle.  I really wanted to make cards using each of the images in the set.  As soon as I saw the bells they reminded me of vintage wedding cards so, a wedding card it is.  This card was quick and easy.  I started by stamping the bell twice on Whisper White cardstock using Versamark ink then heat embossed it with Silver Stampin' Emboss Powder.   I fussy cut the 2 bells then used a blender pen and the Balmy Blue Stampin' pad to color the ribbons on the bells.  I added the smallest silver sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment to the clapper on each bell for a tiny bit of bling.  I cut 2 panels of Balmy Blue cardstock and a small layer of silver foil.  I die cut each of the panels with the frame dies from the Stitched Seasons Framelits then layered them together.   Before I wrapped my stacked layer with the Silver Baker's twine I laid it on top of my Whisper White card base and lightly traced the area where I wanted my sentiment.  I put my card base with the tracing in my Stamparatus so I could neatly line up my sentiment.  I stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink then heat embossed it with Silver Stampin' Emboss Powder.  When the embossing cooled, I gently erased my trace marks.  I added my twine wrapped layer to my card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.  Finally, I added the bells using Stampin' Dimensionals.  This is not my typical style but I think it turned out really cute.

Stampin' Up Blended Seasons Take Three

Hello Crafty friends.  I am back with another card featuring Stampin' Up Blended Seasons stamp set.  This is a simple one layer card.  This card is cased from another company's blog.  I fell in love with the simplicity of leaving the flowers white with a purple outline.  First I created a mask of the floral stamp with masking paper I purchased from Amazon.  I then stamped the flower stamp in the center of the card with Gorgeous grape.  I covered the stamped image with the mask that I created the blended Gorgeous Grape, Blueberry Bushel and Coastal Cabana with a Stamping Sponge over the mask and card front.  Once all of the ink was good and dry I pulled off the mask and had a beautiful crisp white flower.  I stamped a sentiment from the Blended Seasons stamp set with Versamark ink then heat embossed it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. I added a few of the iridescent white sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment for a final touch.  For whatever reason the sequins photographed a magenta color.  I tried everything to capture more of the white color in them but they just kept showing up magenta.

Stampin' Up Blended Seasons Take Two

Hello Crafty friends! I am back with another card featuring the Stampin' Up Blended Seasons Stamp set.  My background was inspired by the beautiful custom wood signs I see on Etsy.   While I love the white lettering and accents on the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper, I must have color.  I started my card by stamping the "Thinking of You" sentiment from the Stampin' Up Rooted in Nature stamp set and the leaves from the Blended Seasons stamp set using Versamark on a piece of
Wood Textures Designer Series Paper then  heat embossed it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.  I then mixed a little Whisper White Craft Stampin' Ink Refill with water and splattered a bit on my background.  I stamped the Blended Seasons leaves, a leaf from Rooted in nature and a leaf from Colorful Seasons in Night of Navy and fussy cut them. I colored the leaves with sponge daubers using Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst, Rich Razzleberry, Gorgeous Grape, Lovely Lipstick and Cajun Craze.  I LOVE all of the rich color! I layered my panel on a Rich Razzleberry card base and Lemon Lime Twist layer.  I added Stampin' Dimensionals to a few of the leaves for a little added dimension.  I added a few silver sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment as the finishing touch.
