All Dressed Up!

This is a card that we made at our last Stamp Club.  It features new and old products.  A;; Dressed Up!

The stamp set is All Dressed Up and I’m tickled pink that this set and the coordinating framelits dies are being carried over into the new 2013-2014 Catalog.

I love the Baja Breeze Blue, Basic Gray and Whisper White color combination.  If you do too, you need to stock up on Baja Breeze cardstock, ink, accessories, etc. as this color is being retired due to our Color Refresh.

My Big Shot made easy work of cutting out all of the shapes for this card.  I stamped this dress in Baja Breeze ink onto Whisper White cardstock.  The coordinating framelits dies made cropping out this shape a snap!  The dress form was cropped out using Basic Gray cardstock also with the Framelits dies.  The dress fits perfectly on the dress form.

I used the Ovals Framelits dies to create the oval shape and offsetting the oval off of the card base creates an interesting background.

TIP:  I used SNAIL adhesive to glue the oval to the Baja Breeze cardstock layer first and then, using my Stampin’ Trimmer, I sliced off the portion of the oval that was hanging off.

The sentiment, also from the All Dressed Up set was stamped with Basic Gray ink onto the Baja Breeze layer.  This layer was adhered to the Whisper White carstock base and then a Basic Jewels Pearls necklace was added as a final, finishing touch.

Happy Birthday, Susan!

Today is my sister’s birthday, and no I won’t tell you how old she is, except to say she is older than me (and always will be!).  Her favorite color is red, always has been, and she have loved clothes ever since we were young.  So I thought it was only fitting to create her a birthday card that was all dressed up in red.

All Dressed Up!

A red polka dress; it was created in flash!  One piece of Summer Smooches DSP # 125409 and one trip through the Big Shot die-cutting & embossing machine with the Dress Up Framelits die # 130101 and my dress was done.  A belt of Whisper White card stock, and a flower punched from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack # 118309 fastened with a 1/8″ mini brad # 122941 was all the embellishing this dress needed.  The sentiment was taken from the Create A Cupcake stamp set # 121982.  The stark Real Red and Whisper White color combo creates such a striking contrast that I left things simple and let the bold colors make the statement for me.
