Create-a-Scene Card

lisamears619

Hello!

Today I’m sharing two cards that I made using the Create-a-Scene die set from The Stamps of Life. This die set makes a fun card base and has several other dies that can be added to it to make a fun card (ie: dotted panel dies, Celebrate word die, candles, birdhouses, trees, etc.)

For my first card, I used the Celebrate word die and candles die set to add to the card base to make a fun birthday card.

  • Create a Scene - Birthday Card

For my second card, I used the birdhouse dies which are part of the Create-a-Scene set. The birdhouse dies were intended to be used for the front of the Create-a-Scene card base, but I chose to use them on the slimline card as shown below.

To see how I made these cards, watch my tutorial here:

10 Cards 1 Kit - The Stamps of Life March 2021 Card Kit

The Stamps of Life March 2021 card kit was released on March 15 and this kit is all about flowers! This kit corresponds to the monthly stamp and die set called Flowers2Layer as well as the add-on set, Extras4flowers2Layer. Here’s a picture of everything that is included in the March Card Kit.

The Stamps of Life March card kit

The March card kit is called the “Sweet Moments” collection. The color pallet for this month is Cherry, Seaglass, Ocean, Poppy, Bubblegum, Lemonade, Marigold, Kiwi, and Powdered Sugar. This kit comes with 12 cardstock sheets — one in each color plus four Powdered Sugar cardstock sheets. (Note: This month’s kit came with Bubblegum cardstock instead of Green Apple which I assume is due to a supply shortage in cardstock.)

The paper pad is the Sweet Moments Collection and comes with 24 double-sided sheets of patterned paper. It also includes two sheets of flowers which can be die cut using the shadow dies from the Flowers3Layer set.

The card kit also comes with a Sweet Moments word die, epoxy dots, two ribbon, a sentiment stamp set with two small flowers and matching dies, flower stickers, large flat back fabric buttons, idea card, a set of envelopes, and a large storage envelope to put everything in.

More information on The Stamps of Life clubs can be found here.

Fun Flower Slimline Cards

lisamears619

Hello!

Today on my blog I’m sharing two slimline cards that I made using the Fun Flower Slimline Panel die from The Stamps of Life. This panel die fits perfectly on the front of a slimline card. It has a lot of beautiful flowers that make up the design. For my cards, I die cut three pieces of cardstock/pattern paper from the panel die and pieced in different parts from each of my die cuts to make two cards.

To see how I made these card, watch my tutorial here:

Supplies:

  1. Fun Flower Slimline Panel Die (The large rectangle die is not included. To cut the die out, you will need the rectangle die (bonus die) from one of the other slimline panel die sets from The Stamps of Life.)
  2. BeYoutiful Word Die
  3. Beautiful Statement Set
  4. The Stamps of Life Cardstock
  5. The Stamps of Life Patterned Paper

Peekaboo Card

lisamears619

Hello!

Today on my blog I’m sharing a fun card that I made using the Peekaboo Square Die Set from The Stamps of Life. This die set consists of a set of square dies in various sizes that you can use for windows on your card. When you open the window, you can have a fun stamped image underneath.

I used the Die Grid background die set for this card. The squares at the bottom of the die grid are the perfect size to fit the smallest peekaboo square die in the set.

Underneath the flaps, I used the Faces4Stamps set and stamped a smiley face underneath each window.

On the inside of my card, I stamped a sentiment and added another smiley face.

Friendship Card

lisamears619

Hello!

Today on my blog I’m sharing a friendship card that I made using the Friends background die from The Stamps of Life. I love this background die because it’s the centerpiece of the card. You don’t even need to include a stamp or diecut image on the card front, but I did use one here. I used the FingerPrints2Stamp die set and included a dog and cat diecut in the bottom corner of the card. I chose these diecuts because they were small enough and didn’t take away from the beautiful background.

Thinking of You Card | Flowers2Layer

lisamears619

Hello!

Today on my blog I’m sharing two cards that I made using the March club set from The Stamps of Life, Flowers2Layer, and the add-on set, Extras4Flowers2Layer.

In my first card, I used the flower outline stamp from the Flowers2Layer set and then used the ink splatter stamps as the layering pieces for the inside of the flower. I used Lemonade ink for the large flower, Guava ink for the large layering piece, and Blueberry ink for the small center. I love how these layering stamps give so much dimension to the flower. It also eliminates having to color these images because you can just use your ink pads to stamp the color onto them.

Flowers2Layer and Extras4Flowers2Layer

For the card below, I used the brushstroke stamps in the Extras4Flowers2Layer set to create this fun birthday card.

Large Circle Flip-it & Circle Words – 2 Cards

lisamears619

Hello!

Today on my blog I’m sharing two cards that I made using the Large Circle Flip-it and Circle Add-on word dies.

In my first card, I used the Large Circle Flip-it to create this Thinking of You card. I just love the flowers included in the circle flip-it card base. I layered them up and inked the edges to give them some dimension. The Thinking of You die in the center of the flip-it card is part of an add-on set of dies. The add-on set consists of other words such as Just Pray, I’m So Sorry, and Thank You My Friend.

Large Circle Flip-it

For the card below, I used the shaker circle die set which is another add-on die set that you can use in conjunction with the Large Circle Flip-it or as standalone dies. What I love about these dies is that they not only cut out of the circle, but they also put a stitched frame around the circle in the cardstock. You can use these to frame an image on a card.
