Sneak Peek and Detailed Dragonfly (Video)

23/04/201923/04/2019

Ok, so today I have a bit of a Sneak Peek and Detailed Dragonfly cards to share with you. You all know Dragonfly Dreams Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits Dies will be retiring on June 3rd, right? Well, they are along with other product. However, before you become too disheartened, we are getting a whole bunch of fantastic new product.

Don’t forget to check out the Last Chance products before placing your order with me.

Sneak Peek and Detailed Dragonfly

Use the following retiring products:

I tied a multiloop bow using Linen Thread finished it with a double knot and rolled up one of the Glue Dots to adhere it to the top of the sentiment piece.

Tip: I find a double knot gives the glue dot something to hold onto and lessens the possibility of the bow coming adrift from the card.

Use your Aqua Painters to make a wash of ink and water in the lid fo the Tranquil Tide Classic Stampin’ Pad. I love this technique as it’s so easy but quite effective, don’t you think?

Allow this piece of Shimmery White A4 Card Stock which measures 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ x 4″ to dry and then run it through the Petal Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Adhere this to the card front using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.

Trimmer Tips & Wise Shopping Tips

Watch the video for heaps of tips on how to clean and care for your trimmer. Also, some wise shopping tips are shared throughout and there’s a sneak peek of new product in a car we make.

Did you give me a thumbs up and subscribe to my YouTube channel?

Thank you for your support, I do appreciate it.

Trimmer Tips

Clean the trimmer mat and arm with eucalyptus oil or rubbing alcohol with a soft cloth or paper towel
Keep the trimmer are free of glue or adhesive which can prevent a smooth guide for your blade
Keep the track guide clean and free from dust and dirt by running a piece of card down the track and giving the track a bang on a hard surface
Use blades wisely
Sharpen blades by cutting through some alfoil
Use ONLY blunt blades for cutting glimmer or glitter paper, window sheet and magnets. Cutting these types of materials with your trimmer blade will blunt the blade more quickly

Sneak Peek and Detailed Dragonfly Basics

Cut a card base of Tranquil Tide A4 Cardstock to 29.7 cm x 10.5 cm or 11″ x 4 1/4″
Score and fold at 14.85 cm or 5 1/2″
Cut a piece of Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ for the card insert
Use Tranquil Tide Classic Stampin’ Pad and one of the images from Dragonfly Dreams Photopolymer Stamp Set to stamp on the card insert and the Whisper White C6 Envelopes.
Adhere the card insert inside the card using Liquid Multipurpose Glue
On a scrap of Shimmery White A4 Card Stock and using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad stamp the sentiment from Dragonfly Dreams Photopolymer Stamp Set.
Place Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the sentiment and adhere it to the card front
Die cut from Black Foil Sheets the large dragonfly using the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits Dies
Place Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the dragonfly and adhere it to the front of the card

Retiring In Color Daisies

18/04/201906/04/2019

Today sees my final post using the 2017 – 2019 Retiring In Colors with Retiring In Color Daisies in Fresh Fig, Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst.

Thanks so much for joining me again today. I know you have a busy schedule and I appreciate the time you spend with me each day. Thank You.

Retiring In Color Daisies

Use:

For this card I used:

Retiring In Color Daisies Wash Technique

Make a palette of colour by either placing a couple of drops of Ink Refill into the lid of the stamp pad or use a Clear Block A and ink it up from the stamp pad.

Tip: Use your Clear Block A as a paint palette and add some water from one of your Aqua Painters and swirl the brush around to pick up ink

Wash over your Shimmery White A4 Card Stock which is cut to 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ v 4″.

Tip: Have all your card front cut and just clean your Aqua Painters and Clear Block A off on your Stampin’ Scrub in between colours. By having all your card front cut and ready to colour, you can make a number of these cards all in different colours.

Here I have used:

Used for this card:

Tip: If you have the In Color 2017–2019 Classic Stampin’ Pad Assortment and like the colours, make sure you buy the Ink Refills so you can reink your ink pads and use them for different techniques. Buy them before they’re gone on May 31 or while stocks last.

Retiring In Color Daisies Basics

Cut your card base from 2017-2019 In Color A4 Cardstock to 21 cm x 14.9 cm or 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Score and fold at 10.5 cm or 4 1/4″
Cut a card insert of Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″
Use the small flower from Daisy Delight Photopolymer Stamp Set and In Color 2017–2019 Classic Stampin’ Pad Assortment to stamp on the card insert and the Whisper White C6 Envelopes

See yesterday’s post for more instructions and tips on making these cards

Tip: When using your Stamparatus, clean your stamps using the Simply Shammy and then store your Simply Shammy in a Clear-Mount Stamp Cases. This makes travelling with your Simply Shammy easy as well as easy storage at home. It will keep your Simply Shammy moist for those times when you are constantly stamping and it’s easy to leave the case open to let your Simply Shammy dry out at other times.

Tip: I still recommend cleaning your stamps with the Stampin’ Scrub and the Stampin’ Mist as the Stampin’ Mist actually conditions your stamps and keeps them in great condition for a long time. It saves you money from buying new stamps to replace stamps which have become unusable. However, Stampin’ Up! products are all made of the highest quality. It’s still a good idea to protect your investment by looking after it properly

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you come back again soon to see what else I have to share.

Remember, your creativeness is only limited by your imagination. Keep smiling and until next we share.

Daisy Thank You

17/04/201906/04/2019

Welcome back to my blog for more ideas using the 2017 – 2019 Retiring In Colors. Today’s cards, Daisy Thank You, use Powder Pink and Tranquil Tide but not together.

Thanks so much for joining me again today and sharing some of your precious time with me. I do appreciate it.

Daisy Thank You

For these cards use:

Tip: If you are having difficulty getting ink into the lid of your stamp pad, to use as a palette, use the Clear Block A and stamp it directly onto your ink pad. Then use that as your palette with your Aqua Painters

Now I made 5 of these in very quick time, using the Stamparatus

Cut a piece of Shimmery White A4 Card Stock to 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ x 4″
Make a watery wash of ink and use your Aqua Painters and allow the card to dry
Line up your sentiment from Daisy Delight Photopolymer Stamp Set on one piece of card, stamp on the number of card front you want, using Basic Gray Classic Stampin’ Pad
Do the same with the leaves

Tip: Punch two daisies out using the Daisy Punch and just place them where you want them on the card front, then work out the placement of each leaf from Daisy Delight Photopolymer Stamp Set

Cut a card insert of Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ and use the ink pad to stamp the small flower 3 times on the card insert and the Whisper White C6 Envelopes.

Here I have used:

Tip: Offset your daisies and use your Bone Folder to curl the petals up a bit to give you a 3D effect. Adhere the two daisies together using Liquid Multipurpose Glue

Here I have used:

Daisy Thank You Basics

Cut a card base of Tranquil Tide A4 Cardstock or Powder Pink A4 Cardstock to 21 cm x 14.9 cm or 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Score and fold at 10.5 cm or 4 1/4″
Adhere the front panel to the card base using Liquid Multipurpose Glue
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the completed daisy to the card front
Add a Gold Faceted Gems to the centre of the daisy

Floral Phrases Thanks

16/04/201906/04/2019

I have a very simple card for you today, Floral Phrases Thanks. I utilised the Stamparatus and the retiring 2017 – 2019 In Colors.

Thanks so much for sharing your time with me. I really appreciate it.

Floral Phrases Thanks

I haven’t used this stamp set in such a long time and decided it would be a great Simple Stamping Card

Use:

Tip: Use your Stamparatus to help you centre your images and sentiment from Floral Phrases Clear-Mount Stamp Set

Tip: If you have the Retiring In Color Stamp Pads and not the reinkers, buy them now so you will be able to reink your favourite colours in the future and use the reinkers for different techniques. They’re all gone on May 31 or while stocks last

I chose two of the 2017 – 2019 Retiring In Colors for this card

Tip: Use your Simply Shammy to clean your stamps before removing them from the plate of your Stamparatus

Tip: Store your Simply Shammy in a Clear-Mount Stamp Cases. They fit nicely and it’s easy to either keep them moist for frequent use or let them dry out between uses and remoisten when needed.

While you have the border stamp from Floral Phrases Clear-Mount Stamp Set, stamp the same image on the card insert which is cut from Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ and on the Whisper White C6 Envelopes.

Floral Phrases Thanks Basics

Cut a card base of Fresh Fig A4 Cardstock to 21 cm x 14.9 cm or 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Score and fold at 10.5 cm or 4 1/4″
Cut a card front of Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ x 4″. Stamp the images and sentiment on it as previously discussed

Berry Burst Thanks A Latte

15/04/201906/04/2019

Welcome to a new week on my blog. I’m looking at Retiring 2017 – 2019 In Colors this week. I have a coffee card today called Berry Burst Thanks A Latte. Thanks for spending time with me, I really appreciate it.

Well, what a fantastic week I’ve had in Auckland, New Zealand attending Stampin’ Up! OnStage and spending a few extra days with friends and exploring. My flight home arrives tonight and whilst it’s lovely to go away, you do appreciate your home comforts, don’t you?

Berry Burst Thanks A Latte

Use:

Cut a piece of Watercolor Paper to 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ x 4″.

Tip: Watercolor Paper has a right and wrong side. Feel it and the smoother side is the right side.

Wipe over the right side of your Watercolor Paper with an Embossing Buddy to remove static and oil from your fingers. Stamp with Versamark Pad using the sentiment image from Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped it 3 times. Sprinkle over your stamping with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and then heat set with your Heat Tool.

Tip: Always have some copy paper under your work when sprinkling with embossing powder. It will catch any excess and makes tipping this excess back into your container easy.

Colour Wash Technique

Emboss the Watercolor Paper with the White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (as above)
Use one of the Aqua Painters and Berry Burst Classic Stampin’ Pad to make up a watery wash
Wipe over the Watercolor Paper in a diagonal fashion, reloading the Aqua Painter with colour as needed.

Tip: If you can’t squeeze ink into the lid of the Berry Burst Classic Stampin’ Pad. Use one of your acrylic blocks and dab it on the pad of the Berry Burst Classic Stampin’ Pad, then use it as a palette.

When the Watercolor Paper is dry, use the Berry Burst Classic Stampin’ Pad to stamp the heart images from the Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set.

Berry Burst Thanks A Latte Basics

Cut a card base of Berry Burst A4 Cardstock to 29.7 cm x 10.5 cm or 11″ x 4 1/4″
Score and fold at 14.85 cm or 5 1/2″
Adhere the completed Watercolor Paper piece to the card front using Liquid Multipurpose Glue.
On Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock stamp the coffee cup image from Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set with Soft Suede Classic Stampin’ Pad
Use Soft Suede Classic Stampin’ Pad to stamp 1 lid and 1 smaller coffee cup from Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set onto Whisper White A4 Card Stock.
Stamp the sentiment onto Whisper White A4 Card Stock using Berry Burst Classic Stampin’ Pad
Die cut all the stamped images using the Coffee Cups Framelits Dies and the Big Shot. Also, die cut 2 coffee sleeves from Soft Suede A4 Card Stock.
Adhere all the coffee cups together and the large coffee cup to the card front using Liquid Multipurpose Glue
Adhere the smaller coffee cup using Stampin’ Dimensionals
Tie a bow using Berry Burst 3/8″ (1 Cm) Mini Ruffled Ribbon and adhere in place using Glue Dots
Cut a piece of Whisper White A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ for the card insert. Use the coffee beans from the Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set and Soft Suede Classic Stampin’ Pad to stamp on the card insert and the Whisper White C6 Envelopes. Adhere the card insert inside the card using Liquid Multipurpose Glue

Seasonal Thanks

12/04/201906/04/2019

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I do appreciate you spending time here. Read on for some great tips for your card making and in particular my card today, Seasonal Thanks.

I just love the neutral colour palette and this card reminds me so much of Autumn which we’re in the middle of now.

Seasonal Thanks

For this card use:

Use a piece of Very Vanilla A4 Card Stock cut to 13.9 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ and run it through your Big Shot with the Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

Tip: I like to use Sponge Daubers to add colour to embossed panels as I feel it gives me more control over the colour.

Take a Sponge Daubers and use Crumb Cake Classic Stampin’ Pad to give colour to the embossed panel.

Tip: Start by dabbing the colour on the ink pad and then try the colour on scrap paper first then rubbing lightly over the embossed panel until you’re happy with the colour. You can always add colour but you can’t take it off.

Stamp some whole leaves from Colorful Seasons Photopolymer Stamp Set on Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock with Crumb Cake Classic Stampin’ Pad.

Die cut leaves from Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies – 3 from Gold Foil Sheets and 2 each from Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock.

Tip: Working with an odd number of like elements seems to make your card look more balanced.

Tie a multiloop bow from Linen Thread and tie a double knot.

Tip: Roll a Glue Dots into a ball and place it where you want your bow. Add the bow pressing the double knot into the rolled up Glue Dots.

Seasonal Thanks Basics

Cut a card base from measuring 21 cm x 14.9 cm or 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″.
Score and fold at 10.5 cm or 4 1/4″
Cut a piece of Soft Suede A4 Card Stock to 14.4 cm x 10 cm or 5 1/4″ x 4″
Adhere the 2 front panels to the front of the card base using Liquid Multipurpose Glue
Position the leaves where desired and adhere to the card front using Liquid Multipurpose Glue or Glue Dots
Stamp the sentiment from Daisy Delight Photopolymer Stamp Set onto Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock with Crumb Cake Classic Stampin’ Pad and then banner cut it. Add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhere to the card front
Place Metallic Pearls where desired
Cut a piece of Very Vanilla A4 Card Stock to 13.5 cm x 9.5 cm or 5″ x 3 3/4″ for the card insert.
