Wedding Season

Hello friends, Stephanie here with a couple cards to share with you.  Summertime will soon be here and that means lots of weddings.  I have 2 cards for you today using 2 of our new releases this month.  Happy Couple and Marriage Scripture make for easy wedding cards.

This first card I stamped my image and sentiment with Memento Black Tuxedo Ink, you could color in your image but I decided I liked it plain.  The paper is from DCWV and I added some half pearls and ribbon to dress it up a little bit.

This next card I stamped the same way and the designer paper is from DCWV, it is a little sparkly but it does not show up in the picture.  The die for the main panel is from Gina Marie.  There you have it, 2 quick and easy wedding cards.    Don't forget about our Stamp of the Month- Peony Clusters, it is free with a $75 order and it is GORGEOUS, you don't want to miss out on it that is for sure.  As always you get free shipping with a $75 order.   Happy Stamping!!!!!

Pretty Peonies

Hello friends!  Today I am sharing a couple of cards using the Stamp of the Month for May and a few other stamp sets from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps new release.

 The Peony Cluster was white embossed on Kraft card stock and colored with Prismacolor Pencils.  A stamp from the Texture Tiles 1 stamp set was white embossed on another Kraft panel and stitched to the left of the peonies.  A third panel was embossed and white ink rubbed over the raised edges to enhance the design.  This panel was also stitched to the card front.  Twine was wrapped around the card and the sentiment added to finish the card.  I love the look of the colored peonies on the Kraft card stock!

The Peony Cluster was inked up with a much neglected Kaleidacolor ink pad and randomly stamped over the background.  A sentiment from the Marriage Scripture stamp set was embossed with Liquid Platinum powder on a white panel.  The wedding cake from the Happy Couple stamp set was embossed and colored with Copic Markers.  A dyed bow and matching pearls were added to finish the card. 

The Peony Cluster is the Stamp of the Month and is free with a $75 order before shipping and tax from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.

The other stamp sets below were used on the cards above.

Thank so much for stopping by...

have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs,

happy couple

Good morning! Today I am sharing two cards using some new Sweet ‘n Sassy stamps from this month’s release. Here I used Happy Couple, Marriage Scripture, and the lovely stamp of the month, Peony Cluster.

 

The layered strip on my first card is a piece of cardstock I found in my stash that I had done the melted crayon technique on almost 20 years ago. I really need to clean out my supplies! lol. Basically, I just placed some crayon shavings (metallic crayons used here) onto my cardstock, sandwiched it between two pieces of wax paper and ironed it. I can't remember if I used regular or glossy cardstock on this piece...experiment! (I did find a quick video for this technique here).

 

 

On the inside, I used stamps from both of the wedding themed sets and kept it a classy black & white.

 

For my second card, I used the pretty peonies from this month's free set to help create the background. They were stamped with Versamark ink to keep them "softer". The cake was popped up with dimensionals.

 

Have a great day!
