New Horizons and Garden Wishes Handmade Card

Image
 Hello stamping friends ! Today’s card share features the Garden Wishes Stamp Set, Dandy Wishes Dies and the New Horizons Designer Series Paper.  The Garden Wishes Stamp Set features a few floral images and five sentiments as well as four builder stamps. Builder stamps expand on the details in a scene. I have used a sentiment from the set for this card. I love the font on these sentiments. This stamp set is part of the last chance sale and is currently $13.20 while supplies last.  The Dandy Wishes Dies cut out the floral images from the stamp set. In addition there are other floral and greenery images to expand upon a scene as well as sentiment labels and builder dies for the flowers which I have used on this card front. These dies are part of the last chance sale and are currently $17.50 while supplies last.  The New Horizons Designer Series Paper is stunning! This paper features some watercolor nature scenes as well as some watercolor in various shades.  The Bakers Twine Essentials P

 Hello stamping friends! Today’s card share features the Welcoming Window Bundle, Through It Together Stamp Set and the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.  The welcome Window Bundle is currently part of the Last Chance Sale and is just $36.75 while supplies last. This bundle creates idyllic, homey scenes with widows, flowers and shelves. This set also contains several sentiments including the Mother’s Day sentiment used to make this card.  Welcoming Window Bundle $36.75 The Through It Together Stamp Set contains 21 sentiments that often support the sentiments in other bundles allowing you to expand on the cards message. I have used this stamp set to do just that in this card, adding the “With Much Love” sentiment to the card Through It Together Stamp Set $22.00 The Timber 3D Embossing Folder lends this very white card the texture that keeps it from appearing stark white. The texture softens the overall appearance and the wood texture around the window gives the scene more credibility.  Timber

 Hello stamping friends! Today’s card share features a  card made using the bonus stamp set from the March, Beyond The Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit.  The bonus stamp set features the large two step floral images as well as a few sentiments. For this card I grabbed the Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin Ink Pad and the Pale Papaya Classic Stampin Ink Pad and just started stamping some images on to Basic White Cardstock with the idea that I would fussy cut them for a card. After I had stamped a few I realized that what I had stamped would make a cute card front and a card design was born. 😆 The deadline to purchase this Kit has already passed but it’s not too late to get in on the fun with the next Kit which features the new In Colors.  To subscribe to Paper Pumpkin go to www.paperpumpkin.com and subscribe.
