Spotlight Stamper - Andi

Andi made this beautiful card for her mom for Mother's Day, so I had to promise that I couldn't share it with all of you until after Mother's Day.  So here is the lovely card that Andi made for her mom.  She came up with the design all by herself, that girl has quite an eye.

She used the Timeless Tulips stamp set and coordinating Tulip Builder Punch.  I am sure that her mom loved it.

Stampin' Up! Tip - Floating & Fluttering

 

Stepping It Up: Floating & Fluttering
Whether you’re preparing for a class where you’ll teach friends with varying levels of papercrafting experience, or you just want different options for the same overall design, stepping up is easy and fun.
In fact, it’s a bit like baking. Sometimes you just want an easy boxed sheet cake with frosting, other days you crave a homemade recipe with layers, and for special days you go all out with fresh berries and crème fraiche.
No matter the level, we’ve got something for you to share with your customers—and they’ll love these projects made using the Floating & Fluttering and Sweet Strawberry Stamp Sets.
CASUAL
To make the casual card, stamp the butterfly images in Tuxedo Black Memento ink directly on the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper, then use the two-step images to add color and depth. Stamp off the ink on a piece of scrap paper to create varying ink tones. Then, die cut a few butterflies and pop them up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
AVID
Step this card up by adding more color to your butterfly menagerie with Bumblebee ink. Cut a label from Bumblebee Cardstock using the Fluttering Dies, then stamp it with VersaMark ink to create a sophisticated tone-on-tone effect. Finish with an elegant tag made using Basic Black Cardstock and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. (All the butterflies on this card are die cut and adhered using Stampin’ Dimensionals!) The Gilded Gems are the perfect finishing touch.
ARTFULLY AVID
Our artfully avid card features distressed edges on the Designer Series Paper layer and embossing on the Bumblebee Cardstock label. Our concept artist colored the butterflies with Watercolor Pencils, and the subtle ink splatter (made using a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker) adds a lovely vintage look.
What success have you had lately creating stepped-up cards?

Beauty of Friendship

 

Now that we have had a few days to enjoy the new Annual Stampin' Up! Catalog, I wanted to share with you today a card that I made.  Tell me what you think isn't this a great way to use Designer Series Paper (DSP) and add some stamped images? The more I work with the new papers and ink, the more I am in love with everything!

Project Recipe:

STAMPS: Beauty of Friendships, Many Mates (Retired)

INK: Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent

PAPER: Cinnamon Cider Base, Beauty of the Early DSP Layer, White Inside & Scraps

ACCESSORIES: Dimensions, Genial Gems, Beautiful Trees Dies

I realize that the Many Mates stamp set is retired, but I wanted to show how old meets new and is great!!  Besides the Congrats was a great greeting for the retirement card that I made with this card.
