The first card in my lineup uses
the stamp set...
I inked the library card stamp with Versafine black ink and stamped it onto white cardstock.
Then cut out it out and inked the cards with Tea Dye and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks.
Then I labeled one of the library cards "OVERDUE" (included in the set) stamping it in Candied Apple Distress Oxide ink.
Then stamped a couple of tickets onto coral Colored cardstock, cut them out, and inked the edges with more Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink.
I layered these Ephemera over Eileen Hull's beautiful Mandala die, surrounded them with flowers and leaves, and attached them to front of a 5"x7" card.
For this next card I used the
stamp set...
This patter measure 4"x 6" but as you can see I used it to create a slimline card.
I simply stamped the image twice. Getting the inked impressions as close as I can together without overlapping them.
The image doesn't make a continuous pattern...
But since I used Eileen's Mandala, no one will even see or notice it. I die-cut 2 Mandalas, 1 in a coral cardstock and 1 in white, and offset it a bit so the white peeks through on the side. Then laid it over the area where the pattern doesn't perfectly match. This creates an illusion that it is a continuous pattern.
I also incorporated the dainty wreath from Eileen's Wreath and Snowflake die set, I die-cut 2 and stacked them directlyon each other for more dimension...
And I also added the William Wordsworth quote from the previously shown "Buttons, Cards, and More" set.
I stamped the background as well as the quote using Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide ink.
And last, but certainly not least, I created a bright and cheerful card using the
stamp set...
I loved the blocked grid frame. You can use it to put any of the included stamped images into the coordinating sized blocks. Or you can also as a interesting background stamp, like I've done below.
I've used the little flowers and leaves as accents, stamped multiples of each, then fussy cut them all out, and added a single flatback adhesived pearl to each flower center.
I grouped my flowers and leaves catty corner from each other.
And use a heart-shaped tag in the center. I inked the edges of my tag with Mustard Seed & Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Inks. Then tied a button topped bow on top.
In the center of the heart tag. I used the little solid heart stamp from the set stamped in more Carved Pumpkin ink.
I also stamped the word " Congratulations" in more Carved Pumkin ink and cut it into a thin strip.
And I attached both to the center of my heart.
I love how each of these card turned out. Each are so individually different and yet components from each set work so beautifully together!
If you're like me and can't decide on which one set to get, think about getting all three!! Eileen has a great deal on a bundle below...
