Welcome to Sugar Creek Stamping. In Triple Play Thursday we will use one stamp set with one card layout to create three beautiful projects. I hope you are inspired to create something beautiful to share with your friends.
The cards this week are using the Posted For You Bundle, and the coordinating Festive Post stamp set from the holiday catalog.
The first card today is using the Posted For You Bundle from the annual catalog. I've created a sweet Happy Birthday card. The card base is Thick Whisper White, with an embossed 5-1/4" X 4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. I used the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder, then spritzed the background with a Crushed Curry Stampin' Write Marker.
For the stamped image, I used Basic Gray Ink then colored using Mango Melody and Just Jade Stampin' Blends. Next, punch out the image and layer onto a piece of Bumble Bee card stock. The printed paper is cut 1-1/2" X 5-1/4" from the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper. I used the Tailored Tag punch to flag the end.
The sentiment is stamped using Basic Gray ink on a 1/2" strip of Whisper White. A Bumble Bee Gingham Ribbon adds a finishing touch. Hope you like this card.
A close up helps to highlight the Blends coloring, and spritzing with a Crushed Curry Stampin' Write Marker.
The second "spooky" card uses the coordinating Festive Post stamp set from the Holiday Catalog. The card base is a piece of Basic Black cardstock. The 5-1/4" X 4" layer is embossed using the Cobwebs 3D embossing folder. This embossing folder, Metallic Mesh ribbon, Iridescent Pearls and Magic in This Night Designer Series Paper are all from the Magic In This Night Suite of products in the Holiday Catalog.
I stamped the brooms using Crumb Cake ink, and then added the sentiment from the Festive Post stamp set with Memento Black Ink. Layer the punched image on top of a piece of Metallic Mesh ribbon, then add a couple Iridescent Pearls for some sparkle.
The shimmer on the cobweb background is created using Frost White Shimmer Paint and a Stampin' Spritzer. Mix a couple of drops of shimmer paint with 70% rubbing alcohol and shake to combine. This is a beautiful touch to add another layer of dimension to your card.
A close up below gives you a look at this version of spritzing using Frost White Shimmer Paint, rubbing alcohol and a Stampin' Spritzer. The final card also uses the Festive Post stamp set from the Holiday Catalog. An easy to duplicate Christmas card design if you need to make in bulk. The card base is Cherry Cobbler cardstock, with a piece of Real Red that measures 5-1/4" X 4" embossed with the Dainty Diamond embossing folder.
The printed paper is from 'Tis The Season Designer Series Paper. The stamped image is adhered using Stampin' Dimensionals on top of a large bow tied using Real Red Braided Linen Trim. All found in the Holiday Catalog. If you don't have a catalog, please send me an email, I'll get one in the mail to you.
