Charming Birthday

I like the colors and the simplicity of this card. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Simply Said (2024)

Paper:

   Berry Burst A-2

   Floral Charm DSP 2 x 5-1/4 (cut into strips)

   Night of Navy 4-1/8 x 5-3/8

   Basic White 4 x 5-1/4 (Inside)

   Tag - Leftover Paper Pumpkin 3 x 5/8 

Ink:

   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:

   CAS

Accessories:

   Petal Pink Braided Trim

   Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots

   Tear & Tape

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I cut the Floral Charm DSP panel. I then cut the panel into strips, keeping them in order: 1/2, 3/8, 3/4, 7/8.

I then adhered the strips onto a Night of Navy panel, leaving room on the left for the braided trim, as shown above.

Next, I added the Petal Pink Braided Trim to the left side of the panel. I used Tear & Tape on the back to keep the trim together. I snipped each of the ends to keep it flush with the panel.

I then stamped my sentiment on a leftover Paper Pumpkin tag, using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. I included the size of the tag, in case you have to make your own. 

Next, I attached the sentiment to the bottom right side of the panel and trimmed off the right edge to keep it flush with the panel. I used dimensionals to attach it.

I then adhered the panel onto the Berry Burst card front. 

Lastly, I added three Charming Shimmer Faceted Dots to the upper right corner and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Trimming Pears

The Mossy Meadow & Gold Trim is so beautiful on both sides, I decided to feature both. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Perfectly Pears

Paper:

   Darling Duckling A-2, 1-3/8" Scallop Circle

   Secret Sea 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Painterly Pears DSP 1 x 5-1/4, 3 x 5-1/4

   Basic White 1-1/4" Circle, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Secret Sea

Technique:

   CAS

   Punching

Accessories:

   1-1/4" Circle Punch

   1-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch

   Mossy Meadow & Gold Trim 6" Strips (3)

   Low-Profile Sparkle Dots

   Tear & Tape

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I cut a 4 x 5-1/4" panel of Painterly Pears DSP. I then cut 1" from the left side and flipped it. Since, the DSP is two-sided, both sides coordinate and complement each other. Note, I did include the size of both panels above, in case you are using two different DSP packs.

I then adhered both panels onto a Secret Sea matte.

Next, I cut three strips of the Mossy Meadow & Gold trim. I laid them onto the DSP panel and flipped the two outer strips. I added tear & tape on the trim to make it easy to attach. You can use glue dots or liquid adhesive as well. I did make sure the strips of trim butted up against each other to make it look like one piece.

I then adhered the panel onto a Darling Duckling card front.

Next, I stamped and punched the sentiment and adhered it onto a Darling Duckling Scallop Circle. I attached it onto the card front, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few Low-Profile Sparkle Dots and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Amber Trees

You don't have to buy all of the bells and whistles to create a beautiful card. I simply used stamps, markers, and a couple of embellishments. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Autumn Trees

   Amber Autumn

Paper:

   Crushed Curry A-2

   Early Espresso 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2)

   Pecan Pie 1-1/2" Sq. 

Markers:

   Cajun Craze

   Crushed Curry

   Early Espresso

Technique:

   Coloring on Stamp

   Punching

Accessories:

   1-1/4" Square Punch

   Streaked Dots

   Irregular Weave Trim

   Glue Dots

   Tear & Tape

   Adhesive

First, I used the markers listed above to color the Autumn Trees stamp. I used Early Espresso on the trunk and limbs of the tree, while Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze were randomly used on the foliage. 

I then huffed on the stamp to moisten the ink and stamped it onto the Basic White panel. Since, I was going to be adding an image on the lower right corner, I moved the stamp as far to the left as possible. 

Next, I used the Cajun Craze marker to color the acorns on the stamp from the Amber Autumn stamp set. I stamped a 1-1/2" square of Pecan Pie with the acorns image.

I then used the 1-1/4" square punch to punch out a square on the lower right corner of the stamped Basic White panel. 

Next, I aligned the acorns image in the square and added a bit of tear & tape to the back of the panel to keep it in place.

I then adhered the panel onto an Early Espresso matte and then onto a Crushed Curry card front.

Next, I added a couple of glue dots: one where the Pecan Pie square meets the Basic White panel at the foot of the tree and the other on the bottom left corner of the Basic White panel. 

I then added the Irregular Weave trim under the tree, using the glue dots to hold it in place.

Next, I added three Streaked Dots: one on top of each of the glue dots plus another at the base of the tree. 

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Pale Expressions

The bit of gold leaves from the ephemera pack definitely adds sparkle to the raised flower on the card front. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Artistically Inked

Paper:

   Pale Papaya A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Expressions in Ink DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Pale Papaya

   CAS

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Artistic Dies

   Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack

   Glue Dots

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I adhered the Expressions in Ink DSP panel onto a Basic Black matte and then onto a Pale Papaya card front.

I then stamped the flower image on a Basic White 2" Square, using Pale Papaya ink.

Next, I die cut the image and placed it on the card front, to get a feel for the layout of the card.

I then added gold leaves, using glue dots to the upper left side of the card. These are from the Ephemera Pack.

Next, I attached the die cut flower, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few sequins to the centers of the flowers and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card. The sequins are also from the Ephemera Pack.
