Artistically Pleasing fall card

Today’s card is full of texture from the razzleberry background that was textured with the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder #143537 from the Stampin Up Holiday catalog. She then the main panel that Cammie made using the direct to paper method and lots of color.  She embossed the flourish from the now retired Everything Eleanor stampset in espresso powder.  To complete the card she cut leaves from the retired Beautiful Branches Thinlits from espresso cardstock and gold foil to create this stunning card.

 

Humming Birds

Today’s post is another Stampin Up Picture Perfect #140520 card that features the Picture Perfect Stamp set in the Occasions catalog  The images in this set really come to life because of the 2 step stamping technique and then heat embossed to add more textureer. The swirls from the Everything Eleanor #131987 added classic elegance to the all occasion card.

Silent Night

This card is a real stunner and features the Stampin Up Wonderland #139752 stamp set.  The midnight muse card base was embossed using the snowflake image from the Wonderland stamp set.  For the main panel, Cammie brayered the back ground complete with snowdrifts and added the trees from the Wonderland stamp set. To add a bit of elegange to the panel. Cammie added the silver snowflakes and the flourish from the Everything Eleanor #131987 stamp set. The silent night sentiment from the Wonderland stamp set was the perfect fit for this serene card.

Happy Birthday Pumpkin

Happy Birthday 19th  to our sweet niece Elizabeth aka Sissy! She missed having a Halloween birthday by a few hours so it is appropriate to  honor her with a pumpkin card.  This card is one another one of Cammie’s beautiful brayered cards. She created the perfect brayered background and accented the sky using the Everything Eleanor #131987.   Cammie used the oval punches to and sponging to create the perfect pumpkin.  For fun she added the hand cut sweet frog from the Stampin Up You’re Sublime stamp set.  The birthday greeting was a combined message using the Hello You Thinlits #137363 and the Endless Wishes stampset #140273.

Swallow Tail in Flight

 Cammie really made today’s card take flight with her fabulous brayering skills.  She brayered the sky and daubered the grassy ground.  She added the swirl using the Everything Eleanor #124164 stamp set and white embossing powder.  She then stamped the Swallowtail  #129216 butterfly 2 times and colored it in with her Stamin Up markers. Both butterflies were hand cut.  To assemble the butterfly, Cammie used the same wing from both butterflies and popped the top wing with Stampin Dimensional.  The butterfly body was freehanded and cut out.

Blowing in the Wind

I love this card because it reminds me of the Bob Dylan song: “Blowing in the Wind”.  Cammie combined the Everything Eleanor #124164 and fully utilized the Summer Silhouettes #126447 stamp sets to create this beauty.  As Cammie often does she created the card 2 ways.  She just switched the orientation and changed the look.  The “sky” background and edges were masterfully sponged and she finished the card with a yummy piece of Blackberry Bliss #133668 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon.  The best part about this card is that I got it in the mail from Cammie.  I must say it is a gorgeous piece of work!

Pleasant Poppies

Today’s card is an all occasion card that Cammie made.  This card makes me think of spring.  Cammie used the Stampin Up Pleasant Poppies stamp set #129499.  She sponged the sky and grass.  To complete the card panel she added a hand drawn wire and a cute bird from the Everything Eleanor stampset #124164.  The mounted panel is layered on top of a strip of summer starfruit cardstock textured with the Fancy Fan folder #127751 and a Baja breeze card base and bow.

Zoopendous Polar Bear

 Words cannot describe this beautiful card we made in Cammie’s brayed workshop.  When I saw it I thought there was no way that I could ever make this card and believe it or not we all completed them and were happy with the finished card.  I will not go into the specific how to details of this card but it included brayering, sponging, masking, and embossing.  We used the Zoo Review #122199 stampset for the adorable polar bear and the Everything Eleanor #124164 stampset for the flourishes. After creating the panel we added it to a marina mist textured layer with petals a plenty folder #116824 and then on an Island Indigo Card base layer.  Simply stunning results that has moved the Zoo Review to my wish list.

Naughty or Nice that is the question

 By now Santa knows who has been naughty or nice but today’s card is definitely a nice card that Cammie made for some of her friends. Cammie stamped Santa using the Santa List #131811 stampset from the Stampin Up holiday catalog.  She used her Stampin Up blender pens and inks to color him and then she cut him out.  She created the panel using the World Map Background stamp #130345 from the Stampin Up annual catalog.  She distressed the edges before mounting it on whisper white cardstock and then on the riding hood red (now retired) card base.  She then embossed the Everything Eleanor #124164 in whisper white and then added her hand cut Santas to the card.  Love this card and had to order the Santa’s List stampset before it goes away on Jan 2nd.

Cardinal Christmas

 This card is an real beauty and one that Cammie taught at her Christmas brayering class.  Lots of details to this card including the brayering of the sky and white embossing the flourish from the Everything Eleanor stampset.  The snow mounds were created using a mask and sponging technique and then the trees were stamped using the now retired season of Friendship stampset in a staggering pattern and different inks.  She added the adorable cardinal and colored him with real red markers.  Once the panel was completed she mounted it on a crumb cake mat and then a real red embossed layer and added a piece of black and white stripe ribbon.  The great thing about this card is that it could very well be a Christmas card or a sympathy or a friendship all around general purpose card.
