Mother/ Daughter Day 4 Just my Type of Science

Day 4

    Today is a fun change. I had the set for these cards but I decided that I wasn't going to use them and do a lot of change. This first card is a mini card on a postcard. I used the Just My Type stamp set and DSP from the Day at the Farm set. The typewriter is a separate stamp from the piece of paper and the "Thank you". All three are separate stamps. For the inside I used my Stampin Write markers to make the rainbow and I love that this set has a tiny little paperclip. 

    The second card I used was the It's a Science stamp set. This card is the opposite of the first one. The base is a card with a popped-up little postcard. The little clipboard and the sentiment are two different stamps and the flask is part of a larger stamp. My husband is a cancer researcher, and I got this set for that reason. Both cards are really simple and I only used the basic measurements and design. I changed the colors, DSP, and stamp sets. 

I sell my cards and make them to order!

Mother/ Daughter Project Day 3 Bird's Eye View

Day 3 

    Today we are playing with my new Bird's Eye View stamp set. The PDF I was getting inspiration from was all about the birds. I copied the house look of the first card. I didn't have the set that was used so I made a bunch of changes. I used Very Vanilla, Misty Moonlight, and Slate Gray. I used a die from the Beautiful Balloons die set, and a die from Irresistible Bloom die set, I did measure when I cut off the corners and they are not even. The inside you can see it better but I like how they turned out. When something doesn't come out the way you imagined or as perfect as you wanted, sometimes it still works. The inside layer pieces weren't as perfect as I wanted but they ended up looking really good. 

    This next card was very similar to the original. I changed up some colors on both cards but this one, I used a different embossing folder, Old Paper. I thought the twine rope-looking ribbon would look so nice with the colors of the card. The DSP is from the Day at the Farm. I used the same colors in this card, and just used the die from the Irresistible Blooms die set. That circle die was to give the front a little more depth. This was a super simple card but I think it's so cute, these little birds are so cute. The sentiment on both cards is from Apple Harvest, the Bird's Eye View doesn't have any sentiments. 

                                        

    Getting inspiration from someone else is always a good place to start and my Mom is a perfect person to get inspired by.

Mother/ Daughter Day 2 Tropical Leaf

Day 2

    Good Morning, today I am using the Tropical Leaf stamp set. The layout of these cards is very similar to what my mom had done but I changed colors, pieces used, and DSP. I also added some embellishments to the cards. These cards were relatively easy to keep to the design. I just decided to change the papers and colors to bring in a little variety. 

    For the first card, the layout is the same and I did the same technique for the 3 panels in the middle but I used different ink colors. The card stock is Soft Succulent and Very Vanilla. The ink is Soft Succulent, with Pear Pizzazz, and Early Espresso. I just used a different DSP that looked nice with the cardstock. I didn't have the leaves that were behind the sentiment so I used dies from the Flowers of Home. Inside I changed the inside completely because I didn't have the die used so I just stamped some leaves. 

    This card is the closest to the original. The colors and DSP are changed and instead of DSP, I used ribbon for the little strip on the front. I used Evening Everygreen, Soft Succulent, and Very Vanilla cardstock. The ink colors are only Pear Pizzaz, Early Espresso, and Soft Succulent. This card is really simple, layer up the cardstock, glue on the ribbon, and pop up the leaves on dimensionals. The inside is just simply stamped-off leaves. 

Happy Crafting! I hope you enjoy my projects.

I will make personalized cards for a good price.

Mother/Daughter Project

     

Day 1

    I wanted to work on a little inspiration and got a little inspired by one of my favorite movies. I am going to craft through my mom's PDFs of cards. I am not going to duplicate the cards but use them as a base. I'm going to use the sets if I have but change the colors and other elements. You'll be able to see the different ideas you can have with stamping. I want to show many ideas and how you can see something and make it your own. I started with Masculine Valentine's Day and made them my own. 

    

    I kept the Country Bouquet stamp set and 1 of the Designer Series Paper. I decided to go with a gradient pink-to-yellow metallic designer series paper with a sandpaper texture. I changed the technique on the portrait card. The hearts are clear embossed over blended Very Vanilla cardstock then I used the coordinating punch to punch them out. 

    

    For the second card, I kept most of the layout the same. I changed the colors, ribbon, and designer series paper, and reorganized the hearts. 

    Sometimes all you need is a little inspiration to make the crafting juices flow.
