Creative Inspiration with a Sketch


Here's this month's sketch:


And here's the project it inspired:


The Sending Love Bundle isn't just for Valentine's! The cute die-cut envelopes can be used all year round to send a message of love.
 

The floral patterned paper from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper was cut (ensuring the pattern ran vertically) to make the first cardstock layer, and adhered to a Fresh Freesia folded card base. The sentiment, from the Sending Love Cling Stamp Set, was stamped on a Basic White Cardstock strip using Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin' Ink, and attached to the centre of the card using Stampin' dimensionals.

Using the die from the coordinating Sending Love Dies, two envelope elements were die cut from Bubble Bath Cardstock, and a third was cut from Fresh Freesia Cardstock. The envelopes were folded and assembled using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The solid single heart image from the Sending Love set was stamped in Fresh Freesia on the front of one of the Bubble Bath envelopes. That envelope, plus the Fresh Freesia envelope, were both adhered above the sentiment strip using liquid glue.

The hollow hearts image (from the same stamp set) was stamped in Fresh Freesia on a strip of Basic White Cardstock, and the strip trimmed to allow it to be inserted into the remaining Bubble Bath envelope. That envelope was adhered underneath the sentiment strip, using Stampin' dimensionals.

Say "hello" to a friend with this bright card featuring artistic loose watercolour floral stamped elements.

Two round flowers from the Artistically Inked Cling Stamp Set were stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Berry Burst Classic Ink, and one double leaf element was stamped on Basic White in Shaded Spruce. The stamped elements were cut out using the coordinating Artistic Dies. The "hello" sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Berry Burst to the left hand side of a Basic White circle cut using the 2⅜" Circle Punch. One of the stamped flower elements was adhered directly to the lower right hand side of the circle. The leaf element was attached to the back of the other flower, and the two combined then layered over the other flower using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Three horizontal strips of Smoky Slate cardstock were added to a Berry Burst Cardstock portrait layer, and the circle focal element attached centrally over the strips using Stampin' Dimensionals. The whole panel was then adhered to a Basic White Cardstock base.

And here's the project it inspired:


The simple sentiment on this card means it can be used for so many different occasions. It uses Copper Clay, one of the colours in our new 2023-25 In Color™ Collection, but could easily be made with any of our In Colors.

Using the 2 ⅜" Circle Punch, two semicircles were cut from the top and bottom of a Copper Clay Cardstock layer. A Copper Clay patterned paper strip, cut from a sheet of Designer Series Paper from the In Color 6" x 6" DSP pack, was adhered across the centre of the cardstock layer. This panel was then attached to the Basic White Cardstock base using Stampin' Dimensionals. A circle was cut from the same DSP sheet using the 2" Circle Punch and cut in half. Each half was adhered directly to the Basic White Cardstock, filling the gaps left by the semicircle apertures in the Copper Clay layer, using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. For the sentiment, a circle was cut from Basic White Cardstock using the 2 ⅜" punch. The sentiment was an assembly of three separate stamps from the Circle Sayings Photopolymer Stamp set, which were arranged on a Clear Block before being stamped onto the Basic White circle in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. The circle was then added to the centre of the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.

And here's the project it inspired:


This cheerful and bright card is perfect for a friend or loved one. The Designer Series Paper used is a host exclusive pack, which means it can only be purchased using Stampin' Rewards that are earned by hosting a qualifying workshop or placing an order over $200.

Two strips of Designer Series Paper (multicolour dotted Pale Papaya* and dotted Polished Pink* patterns from the Flowers & More Host Designer Series Paper*) were adhered to a Basic White Cardstock mat on a Polished Pink* Cardstock base.

The milkshake textured glass image from the Share a Milkshake Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped in Pale Papaya* Classic Ink on Basic White Cardstock. The two cream foam images were stamped in Fresh Freesia ink, the cherry and straw were stamped in Polished Pink ink (both on Basic White Cardstock), and all elements die cut using the coordinating dies from the Share a Milkshake set. Hearts were also die cut with elements from the same die set from Polished Pink* Cardstock. The milkshake element was assembled on a Basic White circle (cut using the die measuring about 2¾" from the Layering Circles Dies*), with Stampin' Dimensionals used for the top cream foam die cut. The whole circle element was adhered to the card front using more Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink* ink on a strip of Fresh Freesia Cardstock. Pale Papaya Opal Rounds* were added as the final embellishments.

Here's this month's sketch:

And here's the project it inspired:

The bright colours in this card are perfect for the floral imagery in this design, made using items from the new Hello, Irresistible Suite that's now available as part of our Online Exclusive product offering.

The Designer Series Paper panel was cut from the Flirty Flamingo and Daffodil Delight pattern in the Hello, Irresistible 6" x 6" DSP. It was stamped with the two floral images from the Irresistible Blooms Stamp Set using Flirty Flamingo, with additional texture added using the splatter stamp from the same set stamped using Petal Pink.

The floral and leaf images from the Irresistible Blooms Stamp Set were stamped on to Basic White Cardstock using Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, and Granny Apple Green. These elements were cut out using the coordinating Irresistible Blooms Dies. The sentiment was stamped using Basic Gray, again on Basic White Cardstock, and fussy cut using Paper Snips. All elements were attached to a Basic White stitched circle (die cut using the largest 3" circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies) using Stampin' Dimensionals.

A length of the Variegated ½" Balmy Blue and White Ribbon was coloured using the dark Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends alcohol marker. The DSP panel was adhered to a Flirty Flamingo Cardstock layer and a length of ribbon wrapped around both layers. The focal floral element was added over the top of the ribbon band using Stampin' Dimensionals, a ribbon bow was attached with a glue dot, and the finished panel layered on to a standard Basic White Cardstock base.
