Today I have a three beautiful card ideas using the same basic card design and the All Things Fabulous stamp set from Stampin' Up! This stamp set lives up to its name - it's absolutely fabulous! It is the perfect rubber stamp set for beginner stampers and advanced stampers as well. It's filled with gorgeous flowers and wonderful sentiments. As a three-step stamping set, it may seem a little daunting for first-time stampers, but the awesome thing about this stamp set is that you don't have to use all three stamps to create a fabulous flower. I have an easy card making idea as well as two more stepped-up card designs. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.
Advanced Card Making Idea In Flirty FlamingoMy final card of the three is the most intricate. It's not really any harder to make, it just has more parts and pieces and takes a little more time. In the video, I shared how I used the Stamparatus to help layout the placement of the leaves under the die-cut flowers. This is a great way to get the placement just right. I also show how to heat emboss with dye inks. With the Stamparatus, you can use the Classic Stampin' Pads for heat embossing. It's pretty cool! Even more fabulous cards with the All Things Fabulous stamp set. I just couldn't stop myself! I made three more cards using a color combination of Blushing Bride, Highland Heather, and Granny Apple Green. And, I just really couldn't stop. I made one more using Petal Pink, So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, and Highland Heather. This card is similar to one of the original designs, but I pushed it even farther. I distressed the edges, added splatters, and inserted a layer of Petal Pink cardstock embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. To finish it off, I added some gold cord and a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels. This card idea is truly fabulous!

Today, I have a quick and easy fun fold card to share with you. Every Tuesday night, I host Mystery Stamping on my Facebook Group. Last night, we made easel cards. There were a couple of mishaps because the stampers had no idea what they were making, but this is actually a simple card to make. So, on y go! Let's get stamping. Country Home Easel CardFor this card, I used the Country Home stamp set. I stamped it with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored it with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I sued Petal Pink, Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, and Soft Soft. I added texture to the puffs of cotton with some white puff paint. We carried this in last year's mini-catalog and I absolutely love the look of it for the cotton puffs. Sadly, it isn't in this year's catalog but I just couldn't resist adding a little of it. If you'd like to know more, here is a blog post and video I made with the puff paint last year. The piece of 8 1/2" x 3" cardstock is folded in half and adhered to the 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card base before adhering the patterned paper. This way the back of that flap is under the patterned paper and doesn't show. Then, the stamped image is adhered to the bottom half of the piece of 8 1/2" x 3" cardstock under the fold. The sentiment is attached using Stampin' Dimensionals so that the easel can rest against it.
