Tropical Bouquet With Caryn

Hello!  While we are getting ready for our next release on Sept 24th I will be featuring some of my favorite Design Team projects from our Summer release.  They are so amazing and they are worth taking a second look!  I cannot wait to show you the 14 stamp sets and 15 die sets that we have coming out on September 24th.   They are sooo good! In the meantime, enjoy this great project by Caryn!

Today I’m featuring the Tropical Bouquet set and have two cards to share:

I blended some Lemongrass Pigment ink onto my card base and then I used a make up sponge technique to add color to the centers of the flowers and to the edges of the leaves. After die cutting my elements I assembled them into a cluster and stamped the sentiment.

I have another card to share today this time pairing the Tropical Bouquet set with a cool stamp from the Peek-a-Boo Coaster set. To me, the track from the Coaster set looks a bit like a trellis so I stamped it in green along the left edge of my card base. I then added the flowers and leaves as though they are climbing up the trellis and finished off with a sentiment.

Supplies used:

Tropical Bouquet Clear Stamps

Tropical Bouquet Elle-ments

Peek-a-Boo Coaster Clear Stamps

Lemongrass Pigment Ink

I hope these cards have added some sunshine and happiness to your day wherever you are?

Suns Out & Whiskers Week- Day 2

Hey there, Caryn here today sharing two cards that are sure to brighten the dullest day!

First up is the this card featuring the sweet Sun's Out set.  Isn't it the cutest?

I started with  a square card base and die cut the Sea Scene Elle-ments from some paper from the Spring Paper Collection pad die and added some silver glitter paper behind it where the wave shapes show through.  I kept the positive elements and added them to the card base for background texture.

Next I stamped and die cut some flowers and foliage from the Tropical Bouquet stamp set and added it to the card using it to frame the focal point for a bright and summery look.

To finish I used one of the speech bubble dies from the Peek-a-Boo Pals die set and stamped the cute sentiment in black ink and added some glaze to the shades!

My second card is a clean and simple idea using one of the cat images from the Whiskers stamp set.  I stamped the cat and coloured her using Copics.  Next I used the pink/blue pastel ombre paper from the Spring Paper Collection and die cut the frame using the Hearts Frame die.

I die cut and stamped a banner for my sentiment using Banner Bits and finished it all off with a few stamped hearts.

Tropical Bouquet Week - Day 5

Hi Everyone! Ashley here sharing Tropical Bouquet! Let's check it out!

To create my card I stamped and die cut the small flower from the stamp set. It was so fun blending ink colors to get an interesting design. Next I cut a few stripes of card stock and stamped the sentiment on the white stripe.

I combined all of the pieces on a card base that was splattered with ink. Finally, I added some washi tape to finish my design.

Thanks for stopping by!

Tropical Bouquet Week - Day 4

Hello friends,

Katie here with a card featuring the Tropical Bouquet stamp set. While this gorgeous collection of leaves and blooms can stand all on its own, I decided to pull out the Flamingo from the Peek-a-Boo Summer Pals stamp set and use the sets together to create a sunny card perfect for summer.

I stamped the leaves and hibiscus flowers from Tropical Blooms and die cut the images with the coordinating Elle-ments dies. Next I stamped, colored and die cut the Flamingo.

I blended a panel of watercolor card stock with two shades of Distress Oxide ink and spattered it with water to create the sun spots. I topped the watercolor panel with the Scalloped Mat Elle-ments die. I built the bouquet of Tropical blooms and tucked the Flamingo behind the foliage. I stamped the sentiment in black ink and added a few clear droplets as a finishing touch.

Supplies:

Tropical Bouquet clear stamps

Die: Tropical Bouquet Elle-ments

Peek-a-Boo Summer Pals clear stamps

Die: Peek-a-Boo Summer Pals Elle-ments

Die: Scalloped Mat Elle-ments

I hope this week is sending you lots of sunshine! Thanks for stopping by!

Tropical Bouquet Week - Day 3

Hi friends!

It's Yainea here today with a fresh and summery card featuring Tropical Bouquet. I love tropical flowers and solid stamps so I knew I'd love to play with this stamps.

This was kind of an experiment and I'm pretty happy with the results. I stamped the images using a light color ink on vellum and then I colored them with Posca markers. I really like the matte finish of their colors and they look wonderful on vellum. Also, due to the humidity of the markers, the vellum curled a little giving the flowers and leaves more dimension, talk about happy accidents!

With a bunch of flowers and leaves I arranged a little bouquet and adhered it with clear adhesive dots to some Avery Elle paper cut into a big tag shape where I previously heat embossed my sentiment.
For the sentiment I used the precious Modern Calligraphy alpha set.

Finally I glued the tag to my base card and added some white liquid enamel dots and twine. I hope you like my project for today!

Thank you so much for stopping by, have a great day!

Supply list: 

• Tropical Bouquet Clear Stamps

• Die: Tropical Bouquet Elle-ments

• The Spring Collection Paper Pad

• Liquid Glue Adhesive

Tropical Bouquet Week - Day 2

Hello!  
Amy here today with tropical, summer vibes!  
Tropical Bouquet is a bold stamp set that lends itself to so many techniques.

Silhouettes made with bold stamping is a fun technique.  While I love to make the stamps shine on their own using inks, bold black ink makes a statement as well especially when paired with a colorful blended background.  

I masked off an area measuring 1 1/2" and ink blended Mermaid Lagoon and Twisted Citron Distress Inks.  These colors blend effortlessly!  The images were stamped with bold black ink and die cut using the coordinating Tropical Bouquet Elle-ments.  After arranging and adhering the images, the sentiment was stamped along the blended blackground.  A few clear drops were added for shine.  

**************************************

While my second card doesn't use a technique, I wanted to share how gorgeous these stamps are with Avery Elle Pigment Inks:  Lemon Grass, Magenta, Mimosa, and Celery.  They were arranged over a Quilted Frame Elle-ments along with some clear drops.
