UdderlyAwesome Stamping From The Heart

Circular Stamping with the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set

Stamping in a circle is one of the unique techniques that we learned with the Stamparatus.

Click here to see the original post where I explain how to do this technique.

Click here to see another card using this technique.

And click here for one more card.

I inked a blank Kaleidocolor Pad using the following ink colors suggested by Patty Bennett:

Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green, Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, and Blueberry Bushel.

The "Love You" is from the Forever Lovely Set. I used Blueberry Bushel and Granny Apple Green card stocks.

The Blueberry Bushel is 5 1/2"x 11".  The white is 5 1/8 sq to allow more of the Granny Apple Green to show.

The card looked a little empty so I lightly filled in with sponged clouds.

I also inked another Kaleidocolor Pad using these inks, also suggested by Patty Bennett.

Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Real Red.  I used Real Red and Daffodil Delight card stocks.

I have listed below the products that you will need to complete this project.

This Sale-a-bration designer paper is some of the most versatile designer paper that Stampin' Up! has ever had!  It is black and white on one side of the papers and the other side has a lot of butterfly designs with color!  I just enjoy working with it so much!

This is a simple card with a lot of "pop"!

Thank You Pop Up Panel Card

I designed this Pop Up Panel Thank You card for a friend who gave me a special gift.

Click here to get Dawn Griffith's step by step directions for this type of card.

This is the Happiness Blooms Designer Paper from the Occasions Catalog.

The Thank You Thinlit is so versatile.

The three little flowers are punched out with the new Bitty Blooms Punch Pack and they have a Happiness Blooms enamel dot in the center.

These are the accessories that I used for the inside.  You can easily substitute and use whatever you have if you don't have  what I have listed below.

Amazing You is from the Celebrate You Thinlits. 

To Think of you is to smile is from the Eastern Beauty Set.

Every Little kindness...is from the Waterfront Set.

The flower die is from the Well Written Thinlits.

The Thank You Greeting is from Butterfly Gala set.

I do love this card. However, it would be very expensive to make from scratch exactly like I did!

But you may already have a lot of these sets and accessories!!

Geared Up Garage Pop Up Panel Card

This is officially a Pop Up Panel Card week!  I needed a birthday card for my son-in-law, whose birthday was this past Monday.

So here you go!

I used the Classic Garage 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper for this card both on the front and inside.

Click here for Dawn Griffith's You tube video for the directions.

I used two of the Classic Garage Metal elements on the third panel.  You can emboss the images or not. The Celebrate is from the Celebrate You Thinlits.

Two Butterfly Beauty Pop Up Panel Cards

This Butterfly Beauty Pop Up Panel Card  is the second one that I designed in this style.

The Thinlint has five butterflies on it. You can cut all five apart and use them individually like I did inside the card or you can use any grouping that you wish.

The white butterflies are one die and the black butterflies are a separate die.  One is superimposed over the other.

The black and white paper is from the FREE Sale-a-Bration Botanical Butterfly Designer Paper.

Click here to get Dawn Griffith's Pop Up Panel Card tutorial and simply follow it step by step.

Inside, I cut all of the butterflies apart.

I haven't put a greeting on this card yet because I don't know who I will send it to or for which occasion.

I'll put the greeting where my name is.

For the second Butterfly Beauty Pop Up card, I used the back side of the black and white FREE Sale-a-Bration designer paper along with Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape card stocks.

The Happy Birthday, the floral design, and the hearts on the inside of this card is from the Well Written Framelits Dies.

Valentine Pop Up Panel Card

My friend, Michelle Halleen, sent me a pop up panel Christmas card.  I had never made one before so I just went nuts making this style card with all different themes.

These cards are so much fun to give and so much fun to receive!

Click here for Dawn Griffith's You Tube video with all of the steps for making this card.

The first time that I made this card, I played one step and went and did it.  Then I played the next step, and went and did it until the entire card was completed!

After making it one time, now I could practically make it in my sleep.

So don't be thrown off by having to  carefully figure it out step by step the first time!  It isn't hard!

This card features the All My Love Valentine designer paper.

I used two sets and two sets of framelits which will show up below the picture.  You can certainly adjust this card to work with the stamps and framelits that you have if you don't want to copy this exactly.

Here is the front of the card!

The "LOVE" is optional and is from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits.

All of the hearts are from the new Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies.

The "Love you" and "You are loved" is from the Forever Lovely set and the Happy Valentine's Day is from the Meant to Be set.

Here is the inside. I later put another 'Love" on the designer paper at the top of the card.

Flowing Fountan - Two More Options

Stampin' Up! is encouraging us to use one stamp set, paper and ink to create a simple stamping project.

This is honestly very difficult for me to do.  I just took this first idea right out of the Occasions Catalog.

Initially, I just stamped it with black Memento ink.  Then I decided to try embossing it, and of course, I love it embossed.  Either way is pretty.

I added sponged in clouds and a little Smokey Slate under the fountain to anchor it.

Here is an up close view of the fountain.

I left the fountain looking kind of rough and not perfectly colored in as far as the Smokey Slate colors are concerned.

I wanted to try stamping the saying underneath the fountain, so I decided to shorten the rectangles.

Here is how you shorten the rectangles.  First, notice how much of the rectangle that I want to cut off.

Here is how you do it.  You simply cut out the rectangle initially.  Then move up the rectangle framelit for the amount that you want to cut off.

I did this with all three of the layers so that the card looks like this.

Flowing Fountain with the new Stitched Rectangle Framelit Dies

This flowing fountain does make a beautiful sympathy card.

The stitching on the rectangle framelits add so much interest to the card!

I also added Wink of Stella to the water in the fountain and the water flowing down.
