Ornate Style Floral Friendship Card

Happy(finally) Friday…the first week of a new distance learning curriculum at school just finished up and it feels like it lasted three weeks.  Our schools in PA are closed for the remainder of the school year, so our students are continuing to learn online.  We even have a virtual recess!  I’m really looking forward to spending the weekend in the craft room.

I created today’s card earlier this week using the beautiful floral image from the Ornate Style stamp set.  If you’ve been following me for a while, you may have noticed that I’m particularly partial to flowers and this one really excited me.  There is so much you could do with it. You can see another card I created with it HERE.  I’m also looking forward to coloring it.

Stampin Up Ornate Garden Friendship Cards Idea - Rosanne Mulhern stampin up

Materials & Measurements 

  • Very Vanilla Thick cardstock: 11″ x 4 1/4″, scored at 5 1/2″
  • Gold Foil Sheet:  4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Ornate Garden DSP:  3 3/4″ x 5″
  • Old Olive cardstock: 5 1/4″ x 4″ (inside)
  • Very Vanilla cardstock: 5″ x 3 3/4″ (inside)

Details

  • Cut a scalloped oval from the Layering Ovals dies from the center of the Gold Foil sheet. Set aside.  This is a great way to say paper, especially specialty paper.
  • Glue the DSP panel to the Gold Foil, leaving a 1/8″ margin on either side.
  • Wrap a piece of Old Olive ribbon, from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo around the card as pictured.  Adhere a small bow using a mini glue dot.
  • Glue this panel directly to the card base.
  • Stamp the floral image from the Ornate Style stamp set with Versa Mark ink on Very Vanilla cardstock and heat emboss with gold embossing powder.
  • Using another oval from the Layering Ovals dies, cut the image.  You can position the oval die any number of ways to get the partial image you like.
  • Adhere the embossed oval to the gold foil scalloped oval.  Pop onto the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The sentiment, from the Ornate Thanks stamp set, is also heat embossed in gold and punched using the Classic Label punch.  I added another label punched in gold foil.  This is also popped with dimensionals.
  • Add a Gilded Gem for a pretty finishing touch.

  • The Very Vanilla panel is embellished with 1/4″ strips of DSP and glued to the Old Olive panel before gluing to the inside of the card
  • Another DSP and gold foil strip create a coordinated envelope.

Forever Blossoms Z-Fold for Coast to Coast CASEing

Welcome to the April edition of Coast to Coast CASEing.  This month Karen did a fabulous job with her card.  Not only is it a beautiful card but it’s also a fun fold.  Check out Karen Hallam’s post HERE

For my card, I decided to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) the Z-fold. I’m guilty of not doing enough fun fold cards.  This one was a lot of fun, so I really need to try more.

Ornate (Country) Style Mother’s Day Card

Hello…I hope you had a pleasant Easter.  Ours was certainly an unusual one.  My husband and I did our grocery shopping at 6 a.m.  Honestly, since we’re under a mandatory stay-at-home order here in PA, grocery shopping is about the only time we leave our neighborhood.  And we’re fortunate that it’s about the most stressful thing we have to deal with, unlike many others who are facing much more difficult  circumstances.  Well, I’m also lucky to have a wonderful stress-reliever in stamping and I know that’s why you’re here, so here’s my card for today…

Stampin Up Ornate Style Mother's Day Card - Rosanne Mulhern stampinup

 

Materials & Measurements

  • Crumb Cake card base:  81/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″

  • In-Color 2019-2021 DSP:  2″ x 5 3/8″

Stampin Up Ornate Style Mothers Day Card- Rosanne Mulhern stampinup

Details

  • Glue the Gingham DSP panel to the left side of the Rococo Rose cardstock.
  • Stamp the sentiment, from the Honey Bee stamp set, in the lower right corner of the Rococo Rose panel with Versa Mark ink and heat emboss with white embossing powder.  The stamparatus comes in very handy for this, both for accurate placement and to ensure good coverage of the Versa Mark.
  • Wrap a piece of 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon to cover the seam created by the DSP.

  • Stamp the floral image from the Ornate Style stamp set on Crumb Cake cardstock with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
  • Hand cut the image.  It’s not hard at all!  Adhere to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Stamp a small butterfly using the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and Rococo Rose ink.  Punch it with the Butterfly Duet punch and adhere to the floral image with a mini glue dot.
  • A few Glitter Enamel Dots (retired) are scattered on the card.

Stampin Up Ornate Style Mother's Day Card - Rosanne Mulhern stampinup

Even though my husband and I no longer have our moms with us, I do enjoy sending Mother’s Day cards to friends.  It’s certainly a day worth celebrating and worthy of a handmade card!

I hope you’ll come back tomorrow for another installment of Coast to Coast CASEing.

Ornate Gift Card Holders & Tutorial

Yesterday I posted three gift card holders featuring the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper. It was great fun creating these for the Pals Blog Hop.  You can see them HERE.

I’ve also had a few requests for a tutorial. While I’m happy to share my card details on almost all of my posts, there are projects that I create to share exclusively with my customers as a thank you gift.  This month I’m featuring the Ornate Garden Suite and offering 3 free tutorials along with sending one of these handmade gift card holders.  I understand that some of my followers are also demonstrators who would not want to place an order.  In order to still reward my customers with a special gift as well as honor the tutorial requests, I’m offering a gift card holder and tutorial for $5 (includes postage).  Here are the Ornate Garden gift card holders.

Stampin Up Ornate Garden Gift Card Holders - Rosanne Mulhern stampinup

I purposely didn’t include a sentiment on the front.  This way they can be used for any occasion simply by adding your own stamped sentiment.  I actually think they are pretty just as is…IMHO!

…and here is the inside.  Again, it’s blank for your own stamped sentiment or handwritten note.

To order the gift card holder and tutorial, please send me an email with Ornate Garden Gift Card Holder & Tutorial in the subject line.  Please be sure to include your mailing address.  You can send payment via PayPal or by mailing a check.  If paying through PayPal and since I will not be sending an invoice, you’ll need to use the “send a friend” option.  Here’s how:  Go to Paypal.com, sign in or register for an account, click “Send” and fill in my email address ([email protected]).  Click “next”, then “send to a friend”, fill in the amount ($5), and continue.  I’ll send the card in the mail and email the tutorial.

*Please Note*  All cards will have the Ornate Garden DSP. However the coordinating DSP may differ from the pictures here.  I guarantee they will still be just as pretty!

Thanks very much for the kind comments and emails regarding these cards.  I truly love this hobby and I’m happy if any of my projects inspire you to create your own.

Please take care,

Rosanne
