Peaceful Poppies Speckled Card

January 29, 2020January 28, 2020 Melissa's Kre8tionsLeave a comment

Hello Kre8tors! Welcome back for another poppies card! I am really in love with this one, and think the colors are so vibrant, they just POP! I hope you enjoy this card, and CASE it! (Copy and Share Everything). If you do CASE it, please share it on social media and tag me using @mkre8tions, I would love to give you a shoutout on my social media for CASEing my design.

I’ve used several of the products from the Peaceful Poppies Suite, which can be purchased in a Suite Bundle to save you time from having to enter ALL the item numbers in separately on an order. Keep scrolling for more info on that!

I started with a standard Whisper White card base, and then stamped some of the splatter images onto the base. I cut out a large poppy from one of the sheets in the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper pack. This poppy is so vibrant and full of beautiful colors! I loved how it popped against the white.

Using the coordinating dies, I cut out the accent piece from a scrap of Basic Black cardstock. I also stamped the largest poppy from the Painted Poppies stamp set on a scrap of Whisper White, then speckled on some color using an Aqua Painter and a flicking motion. I also added a couple of the vellum leaf cut outs from the Peaceful Poppies Elements.

I dotted some of our liquid glue around the card and speckled on some of those gorgeous Peaceful Poppies sequins for a little bling! I adore all of the products in this suite, they are all so much fun to play with! Have you picked up yours yet? I’d love to give you even more inspiration when you do!

The last few finishing touches were to add some of that beautiful Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. I cut a small piece and then folded it in half to look like the bottom of a banner ribbon, and adhered it using some mini glue dots. I love how the ribbon adds a little extra to this card.

September 2019 Kre8tors Blog Hop Brides and Babies

September 8, 2019September 7, 2019 Melissa's Kre8tions9 Comments

Welcome Kre8tors! So excited to have you here for the Kre8tors Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Brides and Babies! That means our blog hop group could make a card that had something to do with brides, weddings, bachelorette, etc. or babies like a welcome baby card, baby’s birthday card, etc.

Be sure to use that Next button below to hop along to the next amazing blog post for some more inspiration!

I have TWO weddings and FOUR babies (one of which is mine!) happening in my life within the next year, so it was a tough choice on projects. Because I just made a baby card a few posts back, I decided to focus on the soon-to-be brides in my life and make a card and tag set to send with their gifts.

I searched Pinterest for some inspiration and came across Artisan Design Team Member Narelle Farrugia’s post using First Frost and was absolutely in awe! The colors and design were so gorgeous, I knew that I wanted to make it as exact as I could! If you haven’t seen her designs, definitely check her out by clicking here.

The colors I chose are Grapefruit Grove, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake, and Basic Gray. These colors work wonderfully together! The bright colors against the neutrals really is what made me fall in love with these designs. Take a peek at my video below to see how these projects came together!

Multi Technique Card with Petal Palette

May 27, 2019May 26, 2019 Melissa's Kre8tionsLeave a comment

It’s almost time to say goodbye to a bunch of amazing products in the current Annual Catalog. One of those products we will be sending off is the Petal Palette stamp set and coordinating thinlits dies. This set has been one of my all time favorites! I wanted to make one last beautiful project to share with you. If you haven’t picked up this set, I encourage you to grab one for yourself before it’s gone.

I needed a Baby Shower card for my Brother and Sister-in-law, and Petal Palette was there for me. I didn’t have anything baby specific, but I thought the sentiment in this set was perfect.

I used several different techniques on this card, thus the “Multi-Technique” title. We have the Smooshing technique on the background, watercolor and ribbon coloring, partial masking, and finally double die cutting. See my video below to check out all the techniques used on this card!

Measurements:

Whisper White Card Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″, Score @ 5-1/5″
Whisper White Card Mat: 3-3/4″ x 5″
Whisper White Scraps: Approx. 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″

Materials:

145788 $35.00	145655 $34.00	100730 $9.75	101406 $9.00	147105 $7.50
147118 $7.50	138402 $3.50	147801 $9.00	146912 $7.50	144159 $7.00
103954 $17.00	141337 $3.50

Pop of Pink DSP on Balloon Celebration Card

May 14, 2016May 14, 2016 Melissa's Kre8tionsLeave a comment

This is such a fun card! It’s different from a typical card because it has a shorter front piece with an accent piece on top. It’s made using the new DSP from Stampin’ Up! called Pop of Pink (Available to customers June 1). I also used the Balloon Celebration stamp set and coordinating Balloon Bouquet punch (Available in a Bundle at 15% savings right now!)
