Cherry Blossoms Cards with Marine

Hi crafty friends, Marine here, today I'm featuring the gorgeous Cherry Blossoms stamp set on a pretty and elegant shaker card. I started off by stamping all the flowers, and to help me in this task, I followed the numbers on the stamp set, as well as the guide on the Cherry Blossoms page.

I used distress oxide inks to create the flowers: spun sugar, worn lipstick, festive berries and aged mahogany, and Lawn Fawn inks for the stems. Feel welcome to check the video below to watch the whole layering process.

Once all the flowers were done, I moved on to the background. I cut a 5,5 x 4,25" panel out of a raspberry pink cardstock and I added details and texture on this plain panel using the Quilted Heart Portrait die. And then I attached my panel on a white panel.

Next I created the shaker. I used the second Stitched Arch die to cut a window out of my panel. I applied liquid glue at the back, attached a piece of acetate, and next I added foam strips at the back of the panel, as well as all around the arch window.

I added sequins and jewels inside the window, and attached a light pink panel on the foam strips to totally close the shaker panel. Next I cut the Eiffel tower using the coordinating die from Paris Afternoon and attached it in the middle of the arch window using foam squares, and stuck flowers at the bottom of the arch.

I added more flowers at the top on each side of the arch window, and for my sentiment, I die cut a red banner using a die from Stitched Rectangles, and white heat embossed the phrase "Thinking of you" from Critters on the Go. I tucked the banner under the flowers at the bottom, and finally I added a few clear jewels here and there for an extra touch of shine. 

And that's it! I hope you like this sweet and elegant Cherry Blossoms in Paris shaker card. I hope you'll check out my video tutorial by clicking the image above. Thanks for stopping by and see you next week!

Cherry Blossoms Cards with Ashley and Mayra

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a card featuring Sunny Studio's newest layering stamp set, Cherry Blossoms! Cherry blossoms always make me think of spring so I am so happy to have this stamp set to play with. Have you ever seen a bunch of cherry trees in blossom? I have heard it is beautiful and hope to see it myself some day!

I started this card by stamping several of the Cherry Blossoms onto white cardstock with the pink Fairy Dust ink cube set from Pinkfresh Studio. I actually skipped the very first layer, opting to leave it white for extra light petals. I cut my flowers out with the matching Cherry Blossoms dies and set them aside. Instead of stamping the leaves from the Cherry Blossoms set, I grabbed the Spring Greenery dies and chose a favorite leaf shape from there. I cut the leaves out of two shades of grey cardstock as well as silver glitter cardstock to go with my flowers.

I created a simple background for my florals by using the Quilted Hearts Portrait die on white cardstock and adding it to a white card base. I layered my leaves and flowers in an L-shape on the front, popping a few flowers up with foam tape for dimension. I used the "hugs" die from Scalloped Oval Mat 3 dies on the same greys and silver glitter cardstock that I used for the leaves. I stacked the die cuts up, letting the silver glitter peek out behind to create a dimensional sentiment and added it to the card. I finished up with a scatter of light pink pearls.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Happy Monday everyone, Mayra here. I am sharing this card with you today using the lovely new Cherry Blossoms stamp set. 

I began by using the larger of the two rectangles from the Stitched Rectangles die set to die cut a panel from smooth cardstock. I then used the beautiful Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace die to die-cut the center of the die-cut rectangle with the eyelet lace patterned die. I then added color to the panel. I used Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves, Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inks, and Drive-In colored ink from Catherine Pooler. I then used a spray bottle to spritz a bit of water over the whole panel. 

Next, I stamped the layers to create the flowers from the Cherry Blossoms stamp set. I used Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry, and Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide inks.  I then used the coordinating dies to die-cut the flowers. Next, I used the leaves from the Spring Greenery die set. I added a bit of color using Lucky Clover Distress Oxide ink. 

I then layered the base panel onto a slightly larger one using the stitched rectangle from the Frilly Frames Quatrefoil die set. The sentiment is from the Lovey Dovey stamp set. 

Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day.

Paris Afternoon Travelers Notebook & Card with Ashley and Mayra

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a different kind of project for you this week! I am leaving for a family trip to France and Monaco soon, and I thought the Paris Afternoon and Charming City sets would be perfect to help me decorate a traveler's notebook for the trip! I've never done a traveler's notebook before, so it won't be perfect, but I'm learning as I go!

I started by making my "title" page. The traveler's notebook I purchased from Amazon came with three inserts, and I decided to use the dot grid one to start with. I am mostly going to be using this as a travel journal, so the grid will help me keep my writing straight! I blended Distress Oxide inks in PIcked Raspberry, Squeezed Lemonade, and Salty Ocean along the side for a rainbow gradient. 

I stamped the Eiffel Tower stamp from Paris Afternoon in VersaMark ink near the center of the page and embossed with gold glitter. I added a few clouds cut from white glitter cardstock with the Fluffy Clouds die, and some leftover pink hearts from last week's Bursting Hearts card. I finished the page by trying my hand at a bit of lettering. Unfortunately, my pen smeared a bit so I'll need to find something else for the trip, but I'm happy with the overall look!

For the next page, I made a spread to use for our first day in Monaco. On one side, I used the center piece of Frilly Frames - Chevron on a piece of white cardstock blended with the same Distress Oxides I used on the first page - Picked Raspberry, Squeezed Lemonade, and Salty Ocean. I glued the middle pieces to the page and saved the outside piece for another day. I decided this would be a good spot for a photo for my daughter as a world traveler, so I added a few extra gold hearts from Bursting Hearts to frame where it will go. 

On the opposite page, I stamped the 'bonjour" from Paris Afternoon in black ink. The page looked a bit plain, so I grabbed those same three Distress Oxide colors to add a rainbow to the top of the page. I used the Chloe Alphabet dies on gold glitter cardstock to spell out "Monaco" and added them under the "bonjour." I finished with some accents with my white gel pen to add more interest. When we are on our trip, I will have my hp Sprocket printer to print adhesive photos from my phone to add to the pages as we go. Hopefully, this will help us remember everything we did!

Thank you so much for stopping by! Next week, I will have another page using the Charming City set along with a little peek at what I am bringing along on the trip to document as we go. Have a wonderful day!

Hello and happy Monday. Mayra here to share this card with you today using the Paris Afternoon stamp set. 

I began by die-cutting the base layer using the Quilted Hearts Portrait die. Next, I used the circle from the Stitched Circles Small die set and the Scalloped Circle Mat 1 die set to die-cut the scalloped and stitched circle for the center of the card. I then colored the image from the Paris Afternoon stamp set using Copic markers. I used BG0000, G00, G02, BG13, BG11, C9, C5, C3, E84, E35, and E31.

I then stamped the sentiment from the Critters On the Go and the Charming City stamp sets onto a banner die. I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day.
