I would like to share two cards I have made with two of the new stamp sets. The first one is using the Church Sympathy set 604. This is such a versatile set. I can see it being used for Christmas, Easter, baptisms and weddings too.
I used a the recent Crackle Background stamp 609 on the left side of the card and embossed with Vanilla Ice embossing powder EP265. The image was stamped and embossed using Silver embossing powder EP179 and then colored with copics.
I tried my hand at making a swing card and used the Spellbinders Beaded Oval die.
The flowers were made sparkly with Bubblegum glitter G1088. To see full card instructions please click here.
Here is the second card using the Leafy Flourish stamp set 641. I just love how this flourish fancies up a card!
The flourishes were stamped and embossed using Brown Fizz embossing powder EP381 and colored in using copics. One flourish was fussy cut and popped over the birds.
The chickadees' bellies ( Birds set 348 ) were colored with copics and Lemonade glitter G1091 was added for sparkle. You can see the instructions on how to make this card here.
The blog hop winners will be announced on May 21 on Facebook, the SNS blog, and on our blogs:

Hi, April! Hope your trip to MILs is a good one. Beautiful cards - as always - with such an imaginative creativity (yet again) that I would never think of! It's always a wonderful surprise seeing what you come up with next. These are beautiful. Thank you, April! hugs, de
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are gorgeous. great design on both and love the soft colors of the church card.
ReplyDeleteWow-that silver embossing powder on the first card is just so pretty. It gives the church such a different look than when it is done in black. And the flowers too. Love it! You second card is just gorgeous too! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW- loving the silver embossed church- surrounded by pearls- so pretty! And the touch of yellow shimmer on the birds- beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the tri-fold card. It is so pretty. The colors, the pearls, the bow, the silver embossing and the shine on the background paper - all are so nice. It would comfort anyone who needs to find solace. The bird card is pretty also. Love the subdued colors.
ReplyDeleteYour sympathy card is absolutely stunning. The church looks amazing embossed in that beautiful silver. I really like the crackle background too. The leafy flourishes and birds is lovely too.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty cards April. The nesting bird card is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love your cards. Your nesting birds is so elegant. The In Loving Memory card is beautiful and would be a wonderful idea I'd like to try to recreate. Great job!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards. The church stamp lends itself so well to your design.
ReplyDeleteYour sympathy card is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour projects are all wonderful but I really love the church sympathy card. I can see how that image would be perfect and with all the pretty flowers added it is a gorgeous card. Wonderful fold on that card too.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful cards - your sympathy card really caught my eye - just love your silver embossing and the colour scheme. So elegant! Your bird card is fabulous too - that's a wonderful stamp - I love what you did with the leafy flourish too.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are gorgeous. Good point that you can use the church stamp for more than just sympathy. The silver really makes it. I love the chickadee stamp and I like the way you used it with the flourish. Very creative!
ReplyDeleteOH MY - I am almost speechless with how GORGEOUS your sympathy card is and how much BEAUTIFUL detail you have included - I LOVE IT ALL, EACH AND EVERY DETAIL, especially the crackle panel, the silver embossing, the sparkly flowers and the colors!!! I am new to machine die cutting with my Big Shot and will definitely be looking out to learn how you created this fancy folding swing card too :)
ReplyDeleteYour seconds card is lovely, BEAUTIFUL colors, sparkle, layers and bow!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your BEAUTIFUL and CREATIVE INSPIRATION!!!
WOW April, you are so right... that stamp can be used for any of those occassions! Love the embossing of the church and your background! I love what you did to the leafy flourish, I love 3D looks. Gorgeous creations :-)
