Scenic Adventure - Stampin'up

 Hello

Hope you are having a good day.

Scenic Adventure stamps and dies from Stampin'up feature on these cards. The background papers are from a previous set Enjoy the Journey.

The clouds were stamped on to the paper and the water on to blue card which was then embossed with the die. The mountains, trees, shrubs were all die cut from different coloured card and the pieces all assembled on to the base. The die cut ducks are from Charming Duck Pond. Gems and birds were added and Wink Of Stella brushed on to the water for sparkle.

The mountain scene was assembled behind a frame die cut from Gallery Blooms set, then mounted on to the paper layered base card, along with a die cut tree. Birds and gems were added.

The clouds were stamped and white embossed, and the pine tree groupings stamped directly to the background paper.

The flowers were stamped across the base of the die cut trees and coloured with a marker then highlighted with a silver pen. This was then fixed across the bottom of the paper and the panel then matted on to card and layered on to the base.

These designs can be a bit fiddly, but they are fun.

Till next time

Framed Scenes - Stampin'up

 Hello

Framed Scenes stamp and die set from Stampin'up is the basis of these cards.

The background panel of card 1 was stamped, tied with knotted twine and attached to the base.  The image was stamped, painted with inks, and attached behind the die cut frame. This was then mounted on to the card.

Card 2 has 2 layers of papers as the background, with the stamped, coloured, and framed image centred on top. Die cut sail boats were attached.

Brass bird trinkets and gems were added to both cards.

This card is side opening matchbook style, with the background paper reversed on the spine, and the frame mounted on to a narrow strip of the same paper. Knotted twine is fixed to the frame corner. Gems, birds and pebbles add interest.

The background panel is embossed in woodgrain folder and shaded with ink, before fixing to the base. A negative die cut frame from a previous project was added, and the stamped, coloured and framed image mounted on top. Die cut pine trees and small, stamped and die cut rabbits (from Regal Reindeer set) were added, along with gems and birds.

The back panel is embossed in eyelet folder and the paper piece added before fixing to the base. The paper panel from Storybook friends papers was die cut with the oval frame, then positioned over the stamped and coloured image, This was then mounted on to the card. Gems, birds and die cut rabbits from In The Grove were added.

I hope you find these ideas inspirational.

Have a great day

Till next time
