Stamper’s Showcase May 2020 Blog Hop Summertime

May 25, 2020May 25, 2020 Melissa's Kre8tions6 Comments

Hello Kre8tors and welcome to another Blog Hop! I wanted to make a super cheerful and bright card and I think I did a pretty decent job. 😉 I used the Mountain Air Bundle along with the Peaceful Moments stamp set to create this card today. Let’s take a closer look!

We are hopping with the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop today! This month’s theme is Summertime and when I think of Summer, I think of bright colors, fun times, and being outside! Be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the post and click that Next button when you’re done here to hop along to the next amazing project!

I absolutely love how these colors play together! They are so bright and cheerful! I wasn’t sure about putting them all together at first, but the Melon Mambo as the focal point on top really lets the Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay, and Granny Apple Green play together nicely in the background.

I stamped three trees from the Mountain Air stamp set and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I also wanted to use some of that fun Granny Apple Green ribbon, but I just couldn’t decide whether I wanted it on top of or behind the trees. I ended up putting it on top, but what do you think would look better? Leave me a comment and let me know!

I stamped the background with the reverse side of the moon. Technically, this stamp set is considered “reversible” and I wanted a polka dot background, so it worked out great! I also stuck on a couple of sequins for a little more bling. Can you spot the missing sequin? 😂I put down a glue dot, but forgot to stick a sequin to it! Let me know in the comments if you found it!

Check out my YouTube video below showing you step by step how I put this card together. I really hope you enjoyed this card today, and Subscribe to my YouTube channel for lots of great card tutorials!

Painted Poppies DSP Striped Cards

February 2, 2020January 28, 2020 Melissa's Kre8tionsLeave a comment

Hello Kre8tors! I’m so excited to share with you TWO cards using the Peaceful Poppies Suite of products! This suite is my FAVORITE from the new 2020 Mini Catalog. It’s packed full of amazing goodies! Have you purchased yours yet? I hope you do, because I don’t want you to miss out!

This first card was inspired by a post from Kimberly Wiener on Pinterest. I loved how hers looked and knew this stamp set would be perfect to CASE her card! I stamped my own DSP and colored them in by hand. This took a long time, but I think it was worth it in the end!

The star of the show on this card are the beautiful poppy stamps from the Painted Poppies stamp set. I used some Stampin’ Blends to color them, and adore how they turned out! They are so vibrant!

I also accented this card with some of those adorable Peaceful Poppies Sequins. Did you know that some of the sequins are flower shaped? They’re too fun and would make amazing shaker cards!

I used the Thank You sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. This font is beautiful on these cards. I love it when lots of products coordinate together, just like every product in the Peaceful Poppies Suite Bundle!

This is a BONUS card, and an alternative to the lengthy coloring session that is needed for Card #1. This card features some of the Peaceful Poppies DSP, so it goes together much quicker!

I also used one of the die cut pieces from the Peaceful Poppies Elements. They were perfect with the piece of DSP I chose to use, and you can even color over them with the Stampin’ Blends! I added a little bow using the Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon from this suite.

And of course, any poppies card wouldn’t be complete without those adorable flower shaped sequins that come in the Peaceful Poppies Sequins! I chose three different colors. What colors would you have used?

Again, the sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments Bundle. I just love how the two fonts on this sentiment compliment each other. This is going to make a lovely birthday card for someone special.

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.

Measurements:

Whisper White Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, Score @ 4-1/4″
Whisper White Scrap for Poppy Stamp
Painted Poppies DSP Scrap for Large Poppy
Basic Black Scrap for Die Cut

Materials:

Hello Kre8tors! If you’re new here, welcome! If you’re a returning reader, thanks for coming back! Today we are playing with the Noble Peacock Suite Bundle! I’ve CASE’d the Annual Catalog and have filmed a tutorial on how I created this beautiful card. I can’t wait to tell you all about it! Come and have a look!

There are so many different ways to get your goodies. First, you can buy all of the items in the bundle individually, or just pick and choose your favorites. Second, you can purchase just the stamps and dies together in a bundle and save 10%. And the last, and best in my opinion, option is the Suite Bundle! That includes ALL of the amazing products in the suite, PLUS you still save that 10% off the stamps and dies. It’s a GREAT deal if you love all the items in a full product suite. Check out the Materials section for all of the different choices!

The Beads and Baubles Embossing Folder is gorgeous with amazing texture! I’ve used the indented side of the embossing folder on the front of my card base and just love how it turned out!

The Reversible Ribbon makes a beautiful accent behind my Stitched Shape oval alongside the sentiment and adorable daisies from the stamp set. And can we talk about the Peacock Tail? That die cut is so detailed and beautiful!

Blackberry Bliss Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, score @ 4-1/4″

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
