Friend Like You Nature Card Or Masculine if you like! The sentiment on the top of the card says it all: Enjoy the LIttle Things. It's cut out with one of the dies from the versatile die set called Tasteful Labels Dies. It's become one of my 'go to' die sets for cutting out sentiments. This die has a peak on the top and the bottom, but you can trim it even with the top of the card as I did here and create a pennant look. The cattails are colored with a Light Soft Suede Stampin' Blend, but

Happy Day! A Friend Like You. To mark the very hot weather we have been having in the UK, I decided to make a cooling Tropical Sunset Card. I used the Friend Like You Stamp Set from the Annual Catalogue. This has lots of images that can be used as silhouettes, including palm trees. Ideal ... Read More about Happy Day! A Friend Like You

Took me a while to take my Friend Like You stamp set off the shelf and play with it but once I did, I have really enjoyed creating with it. You can see some other cards that I made HERE. I still have a bunch of ideas for this set but I had to put it away so that I could play with some other sets. The picture of this card doesn't show all the colors. The card base is Pumpkin Pie, then Old Olive and Night of Navy. I stamped the Night of Navy with the waves and used the chalk marker to give the waves some white highlights. I sponged Night of Navy and Pumpkin Pie on the tag and stamped the palm trees and words with Night of Navy. I wish I would have sponged a bit of Old Olive around the base of the trees to give them some land to be on. I grew up in the Horicon Marsh area of Wisconsin. I can remember going fishing with my parents as a kid and picking the pussy willows. I had to use the willows to create a card! I stamped the tall grass and then stamped the pussy willow tops. The Whisper White layer was stamped first and then ran it through the Brick & Mortar embossing folder. These are very simple but so elegant at the same time! I stamped the grass/leaves with Old Olive. I used a post it note and masked off the grass and top of the card. I used my sponge with a bit of Old Olive ink on it and smoothed that across the cardstock. I added the flowers and words with Night of Navy and Pumpkin Pie inks. #simplestamping Here is a close up of the Pumpkin Pie card. And a close up of the Night of Navy card. You can be sure that I will be pulling this set from my shelf again! I have quite a few to use first but I really want to get back to this set again soon! Happy Stampin'!

Hi Friends! Today I have a fun set to show you, aptly named "Friend Like You"! That's what I think of all of you as - friends! I know if we were able to sit across a table from each other and stamp and chat, we would be friends soon if we aren't already. That's one of the things I love about stamping. I've met some really interesting people from all walks of life that share my love of this hobby. It doesn't matter what your background, your experience or your skill set! We can all stamp and share our creative inspiration. This bundle has some really interesting dies that cut silhouette scenes. It's easier to show you than to try and explain it! I felt at least one of these dies begged for a watercolor sunset! I used a "baby wipe technique to put my ink on watercolor paper. Here's a link to a Youtube video demonstrating how I did this: For my next card, I chose the floral border. I had also just purchased the Scripty 3D embossing folder and wanted to try that out. If you look closely, you can see that in my background. I also experimented with a new In Color, Terracotta Tile! I really like this with Mint Macaron. The palm tree die was a bit of a surprise. Instead of cutting out the border piece, i.e. the trees, it cuts the negative! You have to use this die in your background piece or figure out another way to do it. I added some texture with a retired embossing folder for my sand. I then stamped with the palm tree stamps included in this set. My last card features some stamping of the pretty wild flowers in this set. You might notice another new embossing folder, the Brick and Mortar 3D folder. This card also features a new In Color, Seaside spray and the coordinating ribbon and faceted dots that go with all the new In Colors. This was a super fun set to play with. I want to try more stamping and more techniques with the dies as well. I think the negative images of the first two dies might be interesting. I'll have to experiment some more! I've listed my supplies below in case you would like to make any of these cards. I'm also available by all the usual methods for questions or trouble shooting! Summer is the perfect time to be outside but if you can't be outside, you can craft about it! That's almost the same thing haha! Happy Stampin'! and Happy Monday! Sarah

Today I'm mixing it up and using both the Friend Like Me stamp set and the coordinating Friendly Silhouette Dies. Layering them makes card making easy.

I love these Friendly Silhouettes Dies and couldn't wait to get my hands on them... and then, as is so often the case, they sat in the craft room unused for weeks. I finally managed to play with them last week and came up with these two projects for my team achievers this month. I had planned to create watercoloured backgrounds but time was short so the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper came to the rescue. With the white silhouettes in front, I think it works just as well, if not better. Your eyes are not deceiving you, by the way; the top card is slightly deeper than the bottom one, because I got my cutting measurements wrong! Still, there are no mistakes, eh? The 3/8" Reversible Ribbon in Old Olive/Pretty Peacock was just right to go with these cards but was too wide to work well; it just overwhelmed. So I snipped off the edge and extracted some of the shiny threads from the length of the ribbon to add some colour and shimmer behind the greeting.
