Introducing the Lovely Word Thinlits

The time is coming for new 2017-2018 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.  Do you have yours?  If you don’t have a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator,  I would love to share it and the wonderful world of paper crafting.  Just email me at http://pamela@stampinpinkrose.com   Now today I thought it would be fun to look at the new Lovely Thinlits Dies.  Watch this video and learn the different ways to use it and how it works with the shape framelits.

The design idea seen here is from my friend Mary.  I changed up the colors and paper which gives it a total look. That is what casing is all about.

Remembering a Special Pickup

Stampin’ Up! Birthday card made with Country Livin’ stamp set designed by Demo Pamela Sadler. See more cards at stampinkrose.com #stampinkpinkrose #etsycardstrulyheart

 

Okay, don’t go there.  I am not referring to a pick line, but that old pickup that sat out in the back forty on my grandfather’s farm.  Stampin’ Up! has ways to bring back those old memories.  They seem to be doing that a lot lately.  Anyway, I used the pickup from Country Livin stamp set. It looks like one from the late forties.  I did this one in blues with gray tones. The one I remember was red and not a bright red. It makes a perfect masculine card. Notice I tore some Crumb Cake card stock to give a rough edge. The background was meant to give stormy sky look.  This stamp is not retiring so I will be using it more often as there is a pair of boots I have not used.

This card will be part of the International Blog Highlights challenge which was to create a masculine card. Do you have a favorite masculine stamp set?

Here is the link for the International Highlight Blog  http://www.craftykylie.com/2017/05/kylies-international-blog-highlights.html  However, it is not scheduled to go live until Tuesday, May 16th 5 o’clock pm Central time.   This is because there is a time difference with Australia.

Tips and Tricks

Color Combination: This is a blending of colors.

 

  • Sahara Sand
  • Marina Mist

Stamp Set:  Need a masculine card?

Country Livin' Clear-Mount Stamp Set

Ink:  If you are using blues, you may want to stay in the same color family to stamp the words and the truck.  However, you need to blend other colors that will give the effect that you want.  A neutral shade such as Sahara Sand help to age the truck.

  • Night of Navy(126970)
  • Marina Mist (126962)
  • Sahara Sand (126976)

Paper:  Stay to the earthy tones and nature’s beauty.

  • Night of Navy (100867)
  • Very Vanilla (101650)
  • Crumb Cake (120953)

Embellishment:  I felt the bottom of the card needed something on the Crumb Cake card stock.  So added some Baker’s Twine that I had in my draw.   You could use Night of Navy.

Accessories:  

  • Sponges to add color (141337)
  • Trimmer (126889)

Do You Know Someone Amazing?

Stampin’ Up! CAS Friendship or Hello card made with Feathery Friends stamp set and designed by Demo Pamela Sadler. See more cards at stampinkrose.com #stampinkpinkrose

 

So do you know someone amazing that loves a little whimsy?  This stamp set will be a bright spot in their day.  You will find it in the new Stampin’ Up! 2017-2018 Annual catalog.  It is called Feathery Friends and is a hostess item. The stamp set has darling little birds and flowers that you color whatever color you want.  However, I think it calls for bright cheery colors such as Fresh Fig, Berry Burst, and Lemon Lime Twist which happen to be the new colors.

This is a challenge card from Freshly Made Sketches which asked for this design which led to the new stamp set. When you love the different ideas you will see it is up to us and our imagination.  http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com/2017/05/freshly-made-sketches-287-sketch-by-jen.html

I love these types of challenges because the stamp set and colors are up to me.

Tips and Tricks

Color Combination: Bright cheery colors are coming your way in the new Stampin’ Up! 2017-2018 Annual Catalog.

Stamp Set: Feathery Friends will give you tropical visions and cool breezes.   This stamp set will be available June 1st.

Ink:   They are coming! Those exciting new colors.

  • Fresh Fig
  • Lemon-Lime Twist
  • Whisper White

Accessories:  Did notice with this card no Big Shot?

  • Blender Pens
  • Modern Label punch
  • Watercolored Pencils (for the yellow)
