Here's another card idea using the Stampin' Up! Power Of Hope Stamp Set

  • Another Stampin' Up! Power Of Hope Card Idea
  • Uses the coordinating Stone 3D Embossing Folder
  • Join the COVID-19 Card Challenge

Stampin' Up! Power Of Hope, Again


I'm continuing to play with the Power of Hope set.  Today I created a simple thank you card, but with a quick change of the sentiment, this could be a birthday, thanking-of-you or a congratulation card.  With our families and friends hunkered down to ride out the Covid-19 threat, this is a wonderful time to create cards and reach out to our friends, family or that widowed neighbor down the street who might feel a little more lonely than usual to let them know we're thinking of them. The Power of Hope Stamp Set from the Stampin' Up! free with qualifying purchase Sale-A-Bration selections is a great set to create a quick card without feeling overwhelmed.          
  





The basecard for today's card is Basic Black Cardstock.  Then another layer of Basic Black cardstock heat embossed with the tree image from the Power Of Hope Stamp Set  in black embossing powder.  Then a layer of Whisper White dry embossed with the Stone 3D embossing folder.  You'll need your blue Emboss Plate for this Embossing Folder. 
      





For the image layer I matted a piece of Whisper White Cardstock with a piece of Vellum cardstock.  I stamped the temple image in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the Whisper White, along with a sentiment from the Beautifully Braided Stamp Set.  Then I selected three black flower elements from the Peaceful Poppies Sequins and used Glue Dots to attach them to my card front. 





This is a close up of the tree image embossed on the Basic Black layer.  It is very subtle, but adds additional texture to this simple black and white card.     
  


     



  
Be sure to add the Power Of Hope Stamp Set to your shopping list before Sale-A-Bration ends.  Hurry, Sale-A-Bration ends March 31, 2020, and products selections are only available until they are sold out. You'll love everything you make with these wonderful products.

Card idea using Beautifully Braided Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!

  • Stampin' Up! Beautifully Braided Stamp Set
  • Stampin' Up! adds Coordinating Products
  • Two upcoming classes you won't want to miss.  See below 
  • Stampin' Up! Beautifully Braided Stamp Set 

    If you're in need of a fast card with a classy twist, reach for your Beautifully Braided Stamp Set.  Today's card took just a few minutes to create, yet the choice of the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper gives this background a hand-painted look.  The embossed flowers appear to be raised due to the hand-painted look of the background papers.  And the best news?  This beautiful  Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper is free with a $50 order (less shipping and tax) during Sale-A-Bration.  This is one item you'll want to add to your Shopping list.          
    




The basecard for today's card is Coastal Cabana.  Then a layer of Bermuda Bay.  Then a layer of one of the prints fro the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper, a Free Sale-A-Bration selection.  
                   




I then inked up the flowers from the Beautifully Braided Stamp Set using Versamark ink.  I stamped the flowers on the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper, covered it with White Emboss Powder, and heat set it using my Heat Tool.  So easy!

To finish the card, I used sentiments from the Beautifully Braided Stamp Set.  I stamped the sentiments in Bermuda Bay ink on a strip of Whisper White.  Then I added a few Pearl Basic Jewels to the card. 



  
     

You'll love the entire Beautifully Braided Bundle and how quickly this lovely, colorful card goes together  You'll enjoy giving this card to someone special in your life.  Order the Beautifully Braided Bundle, Bermuda By Stamp Pad, a pack of Coastal Cabana Cardstock and Bermuda Bay Cardstock  and you'll qualify for a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration selection.  You can pick the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper as your Sale-A-Bration Selection and make more of these cards.  Or select a different free gift with your order from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure.

If you don't have a demonstrator and want a copy of the new, January-June 2020 Mini catalogcontact me.   I would love to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.
