Hello everyone… Today I have a set of Thinking of You cards that I created with stamp sets, buttons, ink and watercolor markers.

I used stamping/inking with acetate to create that watercolored background. I added Spectrum Aqua markers on acetate plastic, sprayed with water, and stamped it direcly on the front cards.

I created those flowers using the Blossom Stamp Set that I stamped them on patterned papers with Mini MISTI and Versafine Onyx Black. I fussy cut each of them with micro-tip scissors. I added the flowers on the cards with dries-clear adhesive glue.

For the sentiments, I stamped the words from Daily Thoughts Stamp Set with Versafine Onyx Black ink pad using Mini MISTI. And then I embellished cards with some Simply Butter Buttons.

I am sharing the full tutorial post with some pictures at Precious Remembrance Shop Blog today. I hope you all can visit me over there and let me know what you think of this project 🙂

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

Hello everyone… I am here today with a couple of cards that I created with some new die cut sets, and they are also no-stamping cards.

I am joining the STAMPlorations team today on the Bloomtangle and Simply Sentiments Blog Hop Event. The team share their projects with the new Bloomtangle Cover Plates and Simply Setiments Dies. And I have 2 cards to share with you:

My first card I used the Bloomtangled #1 Cover Plate Die to created the background. I added a watecolored panel on the back of the die cut. For the sentiment, I cut out a black cardstock using the Missing You Phrase Die. I added the layered dragonfly die cut that I cut out the white cardstock and pink cardstock using the Dragonfly Layering Die Set. I also added some pink sequins to embellish the card.

For my second card, I created the background with gold metallic cardstock that I cut using the Bloomtangled #2 Cover Plate Die. I added it on the black card. And then for the sentiment, I cut a black cardstock and white cardstock using With Sympathy Phrase Die. I stacked them together and overlapping little bit to create the shadow. I added the sentiment die cut on a piece of vellum, and then I added them on the card. I finished the card with some natural twine ribbon.

And to my project for this month challenge… I created this card using Typografia In Faith God’s Strength, Trendy Spring Blooms Dies, Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies.

I used the the largest and the smallest dies from the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies to create the frame on the card. I cut out the wood patterned paper with those dies.

For the flowers, I cut out white cardstock with Trendy Spring Blooms Dies. And I added the flowers and leaves on each corner of the frame with dries-clear adhesive glue. I set it aside.

I painted a piece of watercolor paper with Sparkle Clear Brush Pen to create glitter paper. I dried it with craft heater before stamping.

Then I used my Mini MISTI to stamp the Typografia In Faith God’s Strength with Versafine Onyx Black.

I added the sentiment panel on a white card base, and then I added the frame on top of it with 3D foam tape.
