Yesterday was my weekly Facebook Live where I shared 3 projects featuring the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June mini catalog. This cute stamp set is NOT coming back in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  See it here. 

I added all of the upcoming new In Colors to this card! 

Kite Delight in colors Save

The clouds are heat embossed on the Balmy Blue CS using White embossing powder.  The clouds are an outline stamp but I wanted to fill them in to look 'white'.  So I used my Chalk Marker to color them in and love the effect!  I am so sad to report that this neat Chalk Marker was on the retiring list and is already sold out.  You could use White craft ink or White chalk pastels and color it in too. 

The kite is stamped on White CS using Black Memento ink and colored in with the NEW In Color Blends markers. I fussy cut it and added to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I stamped the sun image on a scrap of Daffodil Delight CS using Daffodil Delight ink and fussy cut it.  There is not a punch or dies to coordinate with this stamp set, but I didn't mind fussy cutting the kites or sun.  Easy to do!

    June 22nd Flowers window card Save

    For the card above I used the Flowers for Every Season designer paper and the Tasteful Labels dies.  There are two separate pieces of Misty Moonlight and White CS below the DSP panel.  The greeting is from the Lovely You stamp set. 

    June 22nd Flowers window card Save

    I used the Lovely You stamp set in Magenta Madness and Just Jade.  That pretty texture is the Dainty Diamonds embossing folder. The window is made with the Label Me Lovely punch seen here. 

    June 22nd Flowers window card Save

    I had to use my new favorite stamp set Forever Fern for this window card.  I stamped the same leaf image repeatedly in Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider and Crumb Cake.  Love blues and browns together!  The circle is a 2" punch and the pretty label die is the Tasteful Labels again. My favorite set of label dies now! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      Main window layer 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Layered piece 3 3/4" X 5" (the Magenta card has a tighter layer; 3 5/8" X 4 7/8")

    Use Designer paper, stamped or textured card stock and assorted dies or punches for your windows; layer them if you'd like.

    Supplies:

    • Punches – Label Me Lovely, 2" circle, Medium Daisy, Confetti Flowers Border punches
      Designer series paper – Flowers for Every Season

    It's been so fun to play with exciting new products from the 2020 Annual Catalog!  Are you ready for some glitz & shine?

    Forever Gold specialty paper Save

    I chose to play with the Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper today.  It's part of the Forever Greenery suite of products.  You can see it best on page 152 of your annual catalog. It has 6 sheets; 3 each of 2 single sided designs. One side is gold and the other is white which you can color, spritz or sponge.  I chose to use the gold sides for my projects here.  

    You can see the details & measurements for each one under the photo. 

    Forever Gold specialty paper Save

    I chose to use jewel toned card stock for each card; I think it looks rich & regal with these colors.  The card above is Blackberry Bliss with Very Vanilla.  The pretty golden leafy medallion is all one piece; just punched out from the pack.  I added a 1" X 4 1/4" strip of Vanilla under it and a stamped die cut above with a few metallic pearls.  The stamped image is from Dandelion Wishes and the die is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

    This card is Shaded Spruce with Vanilla.  It's hard to see but the large 4" X 5 1/4" vanilla is textured with our Tasteful Textile embossing folder. The greeting is stamped on a die from Tasteful Labels using the Heart to Heart stamp set.

    Once I had these pieces adhered I could add the laser cut piece on top. I added a bit of liquid multipurpose adhesive to the edges and a few leaves and it's done!

    The laser cut card front pops out so easily from the rest in the sheet. No fussy cutting or die-cutting with these! 

    Forever Gold specialty paper Save

    This is probably my favorite one of the three. This laser-cut piece is delicate and leafy; it leaves a perfect area for a greeting in the stitched center. The card is Night of Navy with a 2" strip of the World of Good designer paper across the middle. 

    I stamped the 'Always' greeting (Field of Flowers set) on a 1 1/2" X 2 1/4" piece of Very Vanilla card stock and sponged the edge with Misty Moonlight ink.  The 'In My Heart' greeting is embossed with Gold embossing powder on Misty Moonlight card stock and punched out with the Classic Label punch. 

    Did you spy the cute little flowers on this card?  They're from the new Confetti Flowers Border punch. Each one has a Metallic pearl on it.

    I hope you enjoyed seeing these pretty cards with the beautiful Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper.  If you like shine and glitz you'll love it!

    As I've said before I cannot get enough of this stamp set.  And when it's in some of my favorite colors too, well it hits all the high points in my stamping world.  

    We made these pretty cards at my June card clubs.  Simple stamping at it's best!!

    The colors here are Gorgeous Grape, which is gorgeous!, Old Olive and Bermuda Bay.  The pretty die is from the Tasteful Labels set of dies seen here.

    This stamp set really makes you feel like an artist.  These Distinktive stamps are absolutely amazing!  I cannot say enough about how much I love them.  Even when you stamp over the images it doesn't matter as they appear somewhat translucent.
