Stampin' Up! Celebrate Sunflowers handmade card

So I'm back today to share some more

Sunflower card making happiness!

The Celebrate Sunflower Stamp set from Stampin' Up! is one of

my favourites, I love to colour with my Stampin' Blends, so this

flower is perfect! I tend to stamp several and then sit in front of the TV

and just colour them in, its very relaxing and therapeutic! if you need to unwind

from a heavy or stressful day this is the medicine for you!

The bonus of pre colouring the Sunflowers is that assembling and

making your cards is pretty quick and perfect for mass producing too.

I've coloured the Sunflower in with the following Stampin' Blends

Old Olive Light and Dark for the Leaves

Daffodil Delight light and Dark for the petals,

and

Soft Suede Light and Dark for the sunflower centre

My sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink, onto Basic Black cardstock

and then heat embossed in White, for a real pop against the Sunflower.

Card measurements

To make my card you will need

a C6 Card base, I've used Stampin' Up! Crumb Cake cardstock

measuring 21cm x 14.85cm scored in half at 10.5cm, I cut the card base and

all cardstock on my Stampin' Up! Paper Trimmer (see below)

A piece of Stampin' Up! gold foil sheet measuring 8.3cm x 12.7cm

and then a Whisper white layer measuring 8cm x 12.4cm

Sunflower and leaves stamped on Whisper White Off cuts, coloured and

die cut out using the coordinating card making Dies.

Ink.Stamp. Share Monthly Blog Hop

Welcome to this months Ink.Stamp.Share Blog Hop, we are a group

of worldwide Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, your currently with me

Laura Mackie, a demonstrator from the UK. Each month we share ideas

and Inspiration using Stampin' Up! products based on a theme.

This Months theme is Anything New,

So anything from the New Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue.

I created this Home Decor piece for my sister

who has just got her own home,

The Heart is a MDF Wooden heart which I had in my stash, which I covered

in woodgrain effect DSP, details below.

I used the New Lovely You Stamp set to stamp the flowers,

with Smoky Slate, Basic Grey and Grey Granite Ink Pads,

The Home Sweet Home and date I printed

off, and then die cut the Heart using the Stiched Be Mine Dies

I add a few sequins and some rhinestones to the centres

of each of the flowers.

The woodgrain background is from the In Good Taste

Designer Series Paper pack.

I made a little gift box to gift the piece in,

I love this little stamp set, it really is a pretty little set,

and isnt just for cardmaking!

I hope I've inspired you today!
