Hello Fellow Stampers ~
Running JUST a tad behind this week. But nevertheless, having some fun in the Studio!!
I'm excited that we're having our first ever "Summer Sale-a-Bration" kicking off the new 2021 Holiday Catalog! Sale-a-Bration is the Best Time of the Year at Stampin' Up!, and we have some pretty fun Freebies to play with this cycle. It's time to share Sale-a-Bration fun . . . so join me as we kick things off!!
Today I'm featuring the Delicate Dalias stamp set.
This is a photopolymer 2-step stamp set, that is also one of our Dist-Ink-tive stamp sets so the flower stamps out with a beautiful variegation that gives a lovely shading, realistic effect.
I made a set of 3 cards today that feature this set both with images as well as the sentiments -- all can be found in this one stamp set.
I dusted off an OLD card design for this card today. This is one that I did waaaaaaaay back in the beginning of my Stampin' Up! journey in 2014. It's called "Triple Stamping" for the 3 layers that are created AFTER you have stamped the main white card stock. I still do my cutting of these layers by measuring and drawing the cutting lines in pencil on the back side of the cardstock, before putting it into the trimmer. By cutting the layers this way, from one piece of stamped cardstock, you save a lot of bulk; and the result with how the images line up is absolute perfection!
I also love the crispness that Basic Black gives to this kind of design. It really sets apart the layering and the images.
These Dahlias were first stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black with the "outline/detail" stamp; and then with the overlay solid image stamp, I stamped in Rich Razzleberry, Polished Pink, and Pale Papaya. Don't you love how pretty these turned out ?
For the second card I created today, I stamped all 3 Dahlias without the detail/outline stamp. This really showcases the Dist-Ink-tive stamping of the solid image and how pretty the shading is.
This card is matted in Bumblebee; and the flowers are stamped in Mango Melody.
I used a "masking technique" to stamp the leaves, by covering the flower up with a fussy cut sticky note. Easy technique, and the result is fantastic!!!
The sentiment for this card was die cut using a die in the Floral Gallery Dies.
It's finished off with Clear Wink of Stella on the flowers; and the gorgeous new Brushed Metallic Adhesive-backed Dots.
My third card design today incorporates the brand new Kraft Paper with an Evening Evergreen mat. I wrapped those layers with the Early Espresso Faux Suede ribbon.
This Dahlia is stamped in Cinnamon Cider and is also masked for the leaf stamping.
I used the outline leaf image to stamp the background on the Kraft paper using Crumb Cake ink.
And the Scalloped Contour Dies to cut the center focal layer.
There is so much you can do with this stamp set. And it is FREE with a minimum $50 purchase.
