Beautiful Day in Garden Lane
Making "thank you" cards is serving a dual purpose for me at the moment. As well as creating cards to thank my friends and family for their support, I'm creating an "attitude of gratitude" around myself which I'm finding very helpful.
I coloured the Beautiful Day flower with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers and cut it out. The greeting is stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink and cut out with one of the Merry Christmas dies before edging with a bit more of the Gorgeous Grape ink. The tag was too long for the greeting, so I made it a bit shorter by using this method.
Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!

Ink It! Stamp It! Design Team Blog Hop: Technique - Embossing Mats
Welcome to the Ink It! Stamp It! Design Team Blog Hop - we hop every month so be sure to pop back and visit us again! Today our theme is Techniques.
I love learning new techniques - so this is one of my favourite blog hops! If you also like techniques - you'll want to use the list at the end of this post to click on the name after mine to continue around the hop. You are currently at my page - Stephanie Fischer, The Crafty Thinker.

| The gorgeous Blended Seasons stamp set & coordinating Stitched Seasons dies will only be available 1-31 August 2018 or while stocks last |
For this project I've used some limited-time products: Blended Season stamp set and the coordinating Stitched Season Framelit dies. These are currently available to Demonstrators and will be available to our customers from 1 - 31 August while supplies last.
Anyone who knows me also knows that I love versatility - I like to make sure I get full value from my purchases! Stampin' up! recently introduced into their range a Big Shot accessory that can add versatility to the dies in our collection. I'm talking about the Big Shot Embossing Mats.
Having cut a piece of Shimmery White cardstock to size, I used a little washi tape to position one of the dies on the back of the card and ran it through the Big Shot with the Embossing Mats using the embossing technique shown here.

TIP: Before I start colouring with alcohol markers, I like to test them on an off-cut of the cardstock that I'm using.
The base card is Poppy Parade with a layer of Granny Apple Green. Using the coordinating dies, I cut the flourishes from Poppy Parade cardstock and cut the bow twice: once in Granny Apple Green and once in Garden Green and did a little paper piecing.
TIP: Adding some Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet to the back of the cardstock before cutting intricate pieces makes them much easier to adhere to the project!
If you like the very versatile Blended Seasons stamp set and Stitched Seasons dies (here is a watercoloured card made with the set and in future posts I'll be sharing some Christmas cards), remember they're a limited release so get your order in fast! If you can't wait until 1st August to get your hands on them, join up as a Demonstrator and you can include them in your kit.
Thank you so much for joining us today and we hope you'll join us again next month when we'll be showcasing the new Holiday Catalogue!

Beautiful Day for Petal Passion
The butterfly started out life as an in-class demonstration of Stampin' Blends alcohol markers and then found its natural habitat on this card!
 |
| The black & white background provides the perfect showcase for the colourful butterfly. A multipurpose card! |
The Petal Passion Designer Series Paper is paired with the use of the coordinating Petal Pair Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
I added a small strip of Daffodil Delight paper from the Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper pack to which I adhered a tiny strip of the black and white paper that I'd trimmed off - waste not, want not!
Than you for visiting.
'Til next time!
