SSS You’re one of a kind!

Hello crafty friends! I hope you had a magical Christmas with your family and friends!!
Today I have a couple of simple & feminine cards with the Bixby Wreath, Arch, Border Dies.

To create the card, I die cut a 3.75″ x 5″ rectangle panel from white card stock using the Basic Rectangles die first, and then die cut the Bixby Wreath from the centre of the rectangle panel as well. I then made a stitched floral circle panel using the Stitched Circles dies.
I ink blended the negative panels with Tattered Rose & Scattered Straw Distress inks, then trimmed the bottom of the inked panel using the Bixby Arch die. I die cut several tiny flowers from Cotton Candy card stock using the Bixby Arch die, then adhered them over the circle floral panel using fine tip glue pen.
For the sentiment, I used the Tiny Words stamp set.

For the second card, I used the Bixby Border die along with the Tiny Words stamp set. I die cut 3.75″ x 5″ rectangle panels from several coloured card stocks using the Basic Rectangles dies: Lipstick Red, Cotton Candy, Sunshine, Green Apple, Sea Glass, Lavender card stocks. Next, I die cut the Bixby Borders from these coloured panels, and then adhered all of the Bixby Borders as shown in the picture.
I added tiny red flowers on the left side of the panel. :D

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

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

SSS Floral Hugs

Happy Saturday, crafty friends!
Here in Sydney Australia, it is a really hot summer during the Christmas season. No snow here! But, I don’t care about the weather, I just relaxed and made floral cards during this weekend. So happy!! :D

Today I have a couple of floral “Hugs” cards with the Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Flowers 2 stamp set along with other SSS products.
I started by stamping flowers & leaves from the Beautiful Flowers 2 set on cream coloured paper panel using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink. I then coloured them with Altenew Artist Markers.
For the sentiment panel, I die cut 2.6 x 3.85 inches of stitched rectangle panel from cream card stock using the SSS Stitched Rectangles Panel dies. I added scored lines, stamped the sentiment from the Big Scripty Greetings set with VersaFine Onyx Black, and then gold heat embossed to the edges.
I mounted the floral panel on the same coloured cream card base using Glue Dots Permanent Tape Runner first, and then adhered the sentiment panel over the centre of the card front using foam tape. I added vellum butterfly die cuts on the card.

Here is another floral cards with the Beautiful Flowers 2 stamp set. I stamped a large sized flower image on cream paper panel using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink, then coloured them with Altenew Artist Markers – these rainbow flowers make me so happy!!
For the sentiment, I used brand new “Thinking of you” word dies.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Create stunning works of art with our Watercolor Brush Markers! The barrel is filled with water-based color, and coordinates with our line of inks.

Flower petals: Midnight Violet, Autumn Blaze, Warm Sunshine
Leaves: Limeade, Emerald, Moss
At the top right corner, I decorated it with the Creative Edges: Lace die cuts.

For the second card, I used the Inked Flora stamp & die set. I used the Rubellite & Warm Sunshine for flower, Limeade & Emerald for leaves.
I die cut the watercoloured flower & leaves using the Inked Flora die set, and then adhered them on white card base using foam tape. For a tiny butterfly,  I used the Painted Butterflies stamp set.

SSS STAMPtember® PPP Pansies

Hello crafty friends!
Today I have a flower card with another beautiful STAMPtember® Pretty Pink Posh Pansies Set.

Here is what I came up with:
I die cut the Wonky Rectangle panel from white card stock at first. I then randomly stamped pansies & leaves with Altenew Sand Dunes dye ink. I coloured all stamped images with polychromos colored pencils.
For the sentiment, I die cut the word “Miss You” from white card stock three times, stacked them up using fine tip glue pen.

Here is a closer look:
