Phrases & Frames Stamp Set + Flowering Meadow Dies + Stylish Shapes Dies
+ Velvet Meadow Specialty Paper

This lightly flocked paper is really a beautiful paper to create with.  I used the detail dies to create a little floral touch next to the sentiment..... and found out a week later that the flowers are upside down!!  LOL!  Thankfully my Stampin' support team all told me that they liked the flowers how I assembled them!

Extraordinary Life in Azure Afternoon

Extraordinary Life Stamp Set  + Floral Flight Accents

This week's Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Azure Afternoon! Click HERE to see the original post on Instagram.  I have chosen the Extraordinary Life stamp set and Floral Flight accents to create this weeks card.  

Extraordinary Life Stamp Set  + Floral Flight Accents

I started by applying Azure Afternoon ink on Basic White cardstock using a blending brush.  I wanted a gradient look.... light at the bottom and darker in the upper right corner.  I heat embossed the sentiment using Black embossing powder.... and I got it crooked.... yup, crooked!  Normally I would start over and get it right....... but I really loved how my gradient had turned out, so I kept it as is.  I used mini glue dots to adhere the butterflies to the card front (and another on the inside).

Velvet Meadow Make n Take #2

Opulent Oasis Stamp Set + Stylish Shapes Dies + Velvet Meadow 12" x 12" Specialty DSP

Velvet Meadow is offered in the current May - August catalog. This card is make n take #2 from the Velvet Meadow Suite that I sent to my customers for their orders in May.  I love to send kits to my customers when they select me as their demonstrator!!  


This specialty designer series paper is so special, with flocked bits within each of 6 designs.  With paper like this you don't want to over-design your cards.... or the special elements will be lost.


Opulent Oasis Stamp Set + Stylish Shapes Dies + Velvet Meadow 12" x 12" Specialty DSP

I chose to really show off this paper by keeping the card design simple.  Two tone framing of the paper helps the colors to pop!  For this sentiment, I've used the square dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

  • Inner message liner - Basic White: 3 7/8" x 3 7/8"
