Sunrise Sailing Online Exclusive With Fancy Friday Design Team!

July was all about the Online Exclusives for us on the Fancy Friday Design Team!  Hope you followed along on Instagram! 💕 So much gorgeous inspiration!  Today I am sharing what I made ... I chose the ☆FABULOUS☆ Sunrise Sailing Bundle for this challenge! 

All supplies are from ©️ Stampin' Up!

Colors:  Pool Party, Lemon Lolly, Strawberry Splash, Peach Pie, Pecan Pie, Gray Granite, Basic White

Inks: Pool Party, Lemon Lolly, Strawberry Splash, Peach Pie, Pecan Pie, VersaMark, White Craft 

Cardstock/Papers: Pool Party, Gray Granite, Basic White, Subtles Designer Series Paper Pack (RETIRED), Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper, Adhesive Sheets

Stamps: Sunrise Sailing, My Small Business

Tools:  Sunrise Sailing Hybrid Embossing Folder (this includes the dies), Perennial Postage Dies, Water Painters, Heat Tool

Accessories: Basics WOW! Embossing Powder, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack,  Iridescent Faceted Gems

This is a pretty fun challenge cause I love the Online Exclusive section of the Stampin' Up! website.  Hee.  The challenge part of it is knowing what to pick!  Haha.  

I had a lot of fun making this card.  This bundle is so much fun to work with because you have a stamp set, dies, AND a Hybrid Embossing Folder.  (The hybrid folders coordinate with the dies, so you can have your stamped images both die-cut AND embossed!)  I love love love the sailboat here! 

How pretty, right?!  Hee.  I did some watercoloring for the sailboat.  I was going for "sunset sail" when making it.  So ...

I first stamped and embossed the sailboat with white embossing powder.  Then I did some watercoloring with Peach Pie, Strawberry Slush, & Lemon Lolly for the sails.  I colored the boat with Pecan Pie.  Once it was dry, I embossed it with the hybrid folder!  I did some splatter with the White Craft Ink & then even embossed with white embossing powder over that.  I used some DSP from my stash in Pool Party for the card front & I love the detail and texture that adds.  

I am obsessed with this bird die that is in the die set as well.  HOW CUTE ARE THEY?!  😊  But I would insist that before you die-cut them, you add Adhesive Sheet behind the cardstock you are cutting from.  This makes them easy to apply stickers.  Using other adhesive for something this thin would be obvoxious.  Doing it this way was a breeze.  Maybe even an "ocean breeze."  Hee.  See what I did there?!  😉

All in all ... totally love this card & how happy it makes me when I look at it.  I have the full card posted below for one more look.  But I hope you enjoy this card and it brings a little sunshine to your day!

Nature Is My Hero ... TGIF Challenge #535!

We have a fun theme challenge going on for TGIF Challenge #535 this week! Time to honor our heros!  I took a little bit different approach for this theme challenge.  A theme challenge where I am kinda honoring another theme.  Haha.  I wanted to honor one of my biggest heros ... nature.  Nature is one of the biggest healers in my life ... whether scuba diving in the ocean or hiking a mountain, or a nature walk, to just being outside to soak up some sun and breathe fresh air, etc, etc ... she heals me.  So here's to NATURE!  You truly are the best! 😍

And the official challenge! 

This card was a lot of fun to make too.  BONUS!  Hee.  All the products I used are from Stampin' Up! I used the Spotlight on Nature Stamp Set with the Patterns of Friendship Stamp Set for the greeting.  And did some watercoloring with Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lime Twist, & Coastal Cabana.  I stamped the floral image in Secret Sea.  LOVE this color, for the record.  Hee.  

The fun little tag sticking out from the side is from the Storybook Friends Dies.  I love that little detail!  The background paper is from the Boho Vibes paper pack.  😍

Here is one last look at the full card:

Layered Thoughts + Extraordinary Flora Thanks!

Just a quick post today for a fun thank you card.  I combined the Layered Thoughts Stamp Set with the Extraordinary Flora Bundle from Stampin' Up!  Love these products and a bit obsessed with the Extraordinary Flora Bundle! 😍

Just stamped the flora images, colored with Blends Markers, embossed the greeting, and then layered it all together! 

How fun, right?!  Look how fabulous this bundle is!  One stamp, one die, and a WHOLE BUNCH of florals! 

I hope you enjoy!  Thank you so much for visiting!  Please let me know if you have any questions!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!
