Enchanted Butterfly Slimline Card

Posted on by inkspirationwithteresa

I haven’t made one of these cards in a while. And something about this stamp set told me I needed to make an Enchanted Butterfly slimline card. I’m just getting started with this new stamp set from the Annual Catalogue and can’t wait to see what I else I end up crafting! This set will definitely be used to make some thank you tags for my customers. In the meantime though this card was a lot of fun to make.

I decided to use Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon for my colour combination. Since the return of Lost Lagoon I’m finding I’m using it ALOT! Plus it’s a nice compliment to the darker Blackberry Bliss. I used Blackberry Bliss for the card base and then added a strip of Lost Lagoon cardstock to frame the large Blackberry Bliss flowers.

Behind the flowers I have some Lost Lagoon leaves. Then on top of that I stamped a sentiment from the Season of Chic stamp set. I used one of the Something Fancy dies to cut out the sentiment and then popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. I had to add a butterfly of course! And this one is stamped with Crushed Curry. I kind of wish that there were coordinating dies for this stamp set, but the images aren’t too bad to fussy cut. The butterfly is popped up too. And to finish it off I added a few Brushed Brass Butterflies.

This stamp set has a few larger images in it. So an Enchanted Butterfly slimline card, works out great!

Check out the card I shared earlier this week using the same stamp set here.

Goodbye Polished Pink

Posted on by inkspirationwithteresa

For the past few weeks I’ve been featuring the 2021-2023 In Colours to get ready for this. This list of retiring products is now officially out! And that means it’s officially time to say goodbye Polished Pink. I’ll talk more about the list next week, so stay tuned. And over the next couple of weeks I’ll be featuring some of the retiring products in my projects. But if there’s something you really want, don’t wait! Things are selling out already!

For this card my main colour is Polished Pink, of course. And I’m pairing it with one of my favourite colours Blackberry Bliss. This is a bit of an unlikely colour combination but it works. Polished Pink is definitely a colour that’s had me scratching my head at times to figure out what to pair it with. And now that I’m getting the hang of it, it’s retiring. Grr!

The images I’m using for this card are also retiring. I’m really sad that Butterfly Brilliance is retiring (dies too), but I’ll be holding on to this one. I stamped the butterflies in Polished Pink and the sentiment too, which is from Something Fancy. To keep Polished Pink as the focus I used Blackberry Bliss mainly as a background colour. Including the typed text from Quiet Meadow.

To add a little something more to the card I also embossed the piece of cardstock with the stamped text using the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder. Then on top of that, and the butterflies, I used one of the Something Fancy dies to frame the sentiment. To finish it off I popped up the sentiment and added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels for a little bling.

Goodbye Polished Pink

While I’m sad that it’s time to say goodbye Polished Pink… and Butterfly Brilliance, I’m excited for the new catalogue. And I can’t wait for my pre-order to arrive so I can start sharing some new projects with you!

Check out a couple more retiring colours here. I can’t believe that Pear Pizzazz is retiring too! This summer is going to be a busy one with purging and reorganizing my craft stash!

For the latest on what is still in stock from the retiring list, check out my online shop. I’ve never seen things sell out this quickly before so don’t wait!!

Favored Flowers for Valentine’s Day

Posted on by inkspirationwithteresa

For a pack of Designer Series Paper I wasn’t so sure about I’m sure having a lot of fun crafting with it! This time I’m using the Favored Flowers for Valentine’s Day. Can you believe that Valentine’s day is only a week and a half away?! Already it seems like time is flying by. But for today that’s a good thing because it’s super cold here and I can’t wait for Spring!

For this card design I pulled a few similar designs from the Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper pack, but in different colours; Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink. I love Blackberry Bliss and so I used that for the card base. I also used it to frame the sentiment which comes from the Love Cats stamp set. Which is also stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink.

I punched the hearts using the plain heart punch from the Heart Punch pack. And behind those I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder. This way the colours and designs on the hearts stay the focus, but the background isn’t too boring. I popped up all of the hearts and the sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I finished it off by adding a couple of Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Favored Flowers for Valentine’s Day may not be the typical Valentine’s Day card, but I really like it! Check out another card I made using this same pack of patterned paper here.

And head over to my online shop if you want to get your hands on this beautiful paper! Remember Sale-a-bration is only on until the end of this month, so don’t wait too long!
