Pretty Detailed Dogwood card swaps

January 18, 2024

Today I'm sharing a few swaps I received featuring the new Detailed Dogwood stamp set – one of the choices in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.

Trayce Bauer made this stunning card using Bubble Bath, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow.

Save

She fussy cut the flowers out and added them to the Bubble Bath layer that has been embossed using the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder – also from our Sale-a-Bration selection.

I love how she added the dotted image to create a background on both the white layer and the greeting! The greeting die is from the Thoughtful Expressions dies.

Below is a photo of the stamp set. See it here online.

Save

It's free with a $100 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February 29th when Sale-a-Bration ends.

Next is a gorgeous card made by Angie Leach.

Save

She used a beautiful set of neutral colors – Pebbled Path, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow and Copper Clay. The large white die is from the Postage dies. Wow!

I love the layout. Adding a few strips below your main focal point adds balance and interest and ties the colors together too.

This last card is also a swap I received but I cannot give credit to the creator as there wasn't a name on it.

Save

Her colors of Black, Real Red and White are stunning! Note the simple stamped background on the large White layer, mimicking the main floral image. That dragonfly is such a neat image. It does not coordinate with our Dragonfly punch unfortunately.

Ombre sponging technique with Flowering Foils

March 5, 2020
Before I talk about today's project I have to let you know that they Golden Honey Designer Paper is no longer available. It was one of the free choices during Sale-a-Bration. Unfortunately these products are only available while supplies last. So don't delay on your orders!

This next card is a version of a card I'm sending to my new Team members who purchased the Starter kit this month. I chose to use Bermuda Bay with Black and White; you know the 'Black & White with a pop of color' theme. It's a classic and always works!

Save

I started out with a 2" X 5" strip of the Flowering Foils specialty designer paper. It's gorgeous with silver and rose gold foil designs. You can see it here. It's a free choice with any $50 order while supplies last.

I inked a wedge of sponge in Bermuda Bay ink and lightly sponged from bottom up. I always start off of the card stock when I want a smooth look. Also sponge in a soft circular motion; almost like you are washing it. You can see me demo this in my FB Live video here.

Other Details:
- Rare Blessings stamp set for the greeting
- Stitched So Sweetly dies
- pearls are colored with the dark Bermuda Bay Blends marker
- The flower is fussy cut from the same designer paper and colored with light Bermuda Bay Blends marker

I made a pretty stitched frame with the Stitched Rectangles dies and Silver Foil paper. Added a greeting and a fussy cut flower from the Flowering Foils paper. I sponged it with Petal Pink ink for a bit of soft color.
