You're Inspiring Mother's Day card

I made two of these cards for my mom and mother-in-law for Mother's Day this year.   The card base is from the Tutti Frutti cards and envelopes which were part of the 2018 SAB promotion which has since ended.  This card features the hinge step stamping technique technique utilizing the Stamperatus  which can be seen here.  This awesome new tool will be available in the 2018-2019 annual catalog and is an amazing new stamp positioning tool.   The sentiment is from Blossoming Basket which is no longer available; however, you could use any sentiment you already have on hand.  The daffodils are from a stamp set called You're Inspiring 145808 and are colored using our new Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.  I used light and dark Daffodil Delight 144603 and light and dark Old Olive 144597 as well as a touch of light Pumpkin Pie 144599.   The sentiment is stamped in Pool Party ink 126982 on Whisper White cardstock 100730.

Isn't that ribbon lovely?  It's the 1/4" Whisper White organza ribbon 145590 colored with a light Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blend marker.  You can color any whisper white ribbon with Stampin' Blends markers quickly and easily.  I love having the versatility of that!

Bird Banter meets Petal Passion birthday

I made this birthday card for a co-worker.  It features the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper 145589 along with the Bird Banter stamp set 145852.  I cut a whisper white cardstock layer and a Petal Passion DSP layer at 5 1/4 x 4.  I then used the layering circle framelits to cut a circle in both layers at the same time.  I then used the white cardstock layer over the top of another whisper white layer to sponge soft sky ink into the circle.  I stamped the leaf branch onto the soft sky circle and then adhered my DSP layer over the whisper white layer.  I then cut a scalloped circle slightly bigger from a layer of lemon lime twist cardstock and then cut a circle one size down into the center to make the scalloped circle outline and adhered it on top of the DSP.

I stamped the cockatiel bird from the Bird Banter stamp set onto shimmery white cardstock 101910.  I then colored my bird with an aqua painter using lemon lime twist 144086 and bermuda bay 131171 inks.  The finishing touch for this card is a strip of 1/4" organza ribbon 145590 with a strip of the lemon lime twist ombre ribbon 144234.  I stamped the sentiment on whisper white using bermuda bay ink and cut it out with a framelit from the Petals and More framelits 145655.  This is popped up on some mini stampin dimensionals 144108.  My card base is a standard A2 whisper white card base.
