Happiness Surrounds Me

Today I wanted to share a card we made using the Happiness Surrounds stamp set and the White Velvet Sheets — both from the Snowflake Showcase Suite.  This stamp set is great to use for the whole year.

We stamped on the White Velvet Sheets with Night of Navy and Balmy Blue.  This paper stamps beautifully and dried very quickly for us.

Happiness Surrounds, Tufted Embossing Folder
The Balmy Blue layer is embossed with the Tufted embossing folder.  I stamped the Night of Navy image first on all 3 velvet squares.  Next I stamped the flower with Balmy Blue ink — attach a Rhinestone to the center of each flower.  I stamped the words and the little flowers on Whisper White cardstock and trimmed a banner end, then attached it to a strip of Night of Navy and trimmed that to match stamped image.

Measurements:
Night of Navy — 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — scored at 4 1/4″
Balmy Blue — 4″ x 5 1/4″ — run through Tufted Embossing Folder
Night of Navy — 3 — 1 5/8″ x 1 5/8″, 2 — 3/4″ x 2″
Velvet Sheet — 3 — 1 1/2″ x 1 1/2″
Whisper White — 2 — 5/8″ x 1 7/8″

Snow is Glistening in Mossy Meadow & Gold

Yesterday I shared the new Snowflake Showcase with you and some samples from Stampin’ Up!  Last night was my Stamp & Go Club night and we used the Snow is Glistening stamp set with the Gold Foil-Edged Cards & Envelopes.  The card turned out so elegant — I just love it.

Snow is Glistening stamp set, Gold Foil Edged Cards & Envelopes, Christmas
It doesn’t show up well in the picture but there is gold embossed snowflakes around the outer edge of the Mossy Meadow cardstock.  I added a layer of Gold Foil Sheet under the Mossy Meadow tree and popped those layers with Dimensionals.  We added gold pearls from the Metallic Pearls to add more sparkle to this card.  The envelope has gold trim on the flaps to add to the elegance.

More great images that work all year long.

 

Snowflake Trinkets
These silver Snowflake Trinkets will add a wonderful touch to your projects.
I can’t wait to make a pair of earrings out of two trinkets — maybe a fun little holder for them too.
I’m thinking St. Nick gifts.

 

White Velvet Sheets
The last product in this new “bundle” is the White Velvet Sheets.
Two fabulous velveteen 12″ x 12″ sheets for only $5.
The picture does nothing for them — you have to touch them.
They remind me of the velvet dress my daughter wore for Christmas when she was a baby — memories.

Stampin’ Up! has some wonderful samples to show you how great these products are.

 

Snow is Glistening
I love the sweetness of this card.  The tree is so pretty and the snowflakes are cut from the velvet sheets.

Look at all that laciness (is that a word).
This card is very feminine to me, don’t you think so?

 

Snowfall Thinlits
The Snowfall Thinlits are the highlight on this card — Silver Glimmer Paper — gorgeous.

 

Congratulations, Happiness Surrounds

 

This card is a great sample of the Happiness Surrounds stamp set.
I love the vintage stamped background on the Wood Texture designer paper.

 

Hello Friend

 

The final sample rolls us right into spring.
This is such a bright, cheery card.
Wouldn’t this make a great Christmas gift — a set of 4-6 cards and put in a gift bag for a friend.
