Big Bold stamp images call for big bold colors! I used the Regarding Dahlia Clear Mount Stamp Set for today’s post.I colored in the flower image with the Cherry Cobbler Assortment Blendabilities. Tomorrow, on Tuesday, 1 July 2014, you will be able to order some of the blendabilities and, trust me, you will love them. My customers have used them at class and they can hardly wait to get… Read More »
For today’s post, I’m combining the modern, edgy, grunge Chalk Talk Stamp Set with the Shabby Chic Look. Love the combination of Crisp Cantaloupe with Soft Suede! And I love, love our new Venetian Crochet Trim! The flower is a Non-SU item but everything else is Stampin’ Up!. The ribbon is the Very Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon which was dipped in a solution of Crisp Cantaloupe Reinker and water. While… Read More »
Roses are my favorite flowers especially the old fashion kind. This one is a Sweetbriar Rose and originated in Europe where they make tea from it (Rose Hips Tea). Though the real Sweetbriar Rose is pink I decide to color this one in our gorgeous new blue called Lost Lagoon (2014-2016 In-Color). I love the names that Stampin’ Up! selects for their colors! If you would like to place an… Read More »
Before I go into today’s card, I wanted you know that there is a contest on my facebook page, Artistic Designs by Rachel. I’ll select a winner for a My Paper Pumpkin Kit on Friday. I’ll give away a free kit every month until I run out of the extra kits I have. Check it out! I saw a card on Tami White’s blog and was inspired. I made the… Read More »

If you need any supplies to make this card, visit my Stampin’ Store for 24/7 service. Or if you like, I’ll be more than happy to place the order for you!… Read More »
For today’s card, I used the Fabulous Florets Stamp Set. I can’t believe this set is retiring because it was so popular! Please note, if you do want to get this set, the clear version is no longer available, but you can get it in the wood mount. The flowers and butterfly were stamped with Versamark, coated with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and set with the Heat… Read More »
The description for the Hardwood Background Stamp reads: “The Hardwood Background Stamp creates a realistic wood background for cards, scrapbook pages, and more!” And the description for the Everything Eleanor reads: “Delicate floral embellishments, frames, and flourishes–the perfect mix for your projects with vintage flair”. You think you could not mix the two together, but you can! I paired the masculine background stamp with the frilly flowers in Everything… Read More »
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a shabby chic card. Since the background was printed using the My Digital Studio and the Music Notes Stamp Brush Set and Downtown Grunge Photobook template, technically, I guess it would be a shabby chic hybrid card! After printing it off, I tore the script down both sides so that I had a 2 inch length. I adhered that to the musical notes background. The… Read More »
I remember people saying “peachy keen” in the early 50’s! I guess I’m really dating myself (LOL). Wonderfully retro, the Peachy Keen Stamp Set coordinates with the On Film Framelits Dies and the Retro Fresh Suite. I’m so glad we finally have a flower die to make 3D flowers with. So easy to make – run Whisper White Card Stock through the Big shot using our new Spiral Flower Die. Roll… Read More »
Nothing like a light and cheery card to brighten your day. The sentiment “Sending Good Thoughts Your Way” in the Perfect Pennants Stamp Set is perfect to send someone that needs some cheering up! If you know me, you know I love floral paper and the Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Pack has one that reminds me of Comfort Café Designer Series Paper. That DSP was a long time favorite of mine. Today’s card… Read More »
