Simply Marbelous Calming Camelia


Since today (2/28/22) is the last day of Sale-A-Bration, I though I'd Sale-A-Brate by highlighting some of my favorite FREE things from this catalog. One would be the Simply Marbelous paper, which I've added some color to here, and the other is the Calming Camelia stamp set. I've so enjoyed using both of these over the past 2 months--I think I've gone through 2 packs of Simply Marbelous paper! This is a fairly easy card, but if you get stuck (or you are a more visual person) please watch my video below.

Gather your supplies to make this card. 

1. Highland Heather cardstock 4 1/4 by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at 4 1/4" 
2. Basic White cardstock 3 3/4 by 5" for the inside and another piece die cut with the Scalloped Contours dies, the second largest rectangle
3. Simply Marbelous purple DSP (#158128) FREE WITH A $50 ORDER cut 4 by 5 1/4"
4. Stamp Sets-- Calming Camellia (#158117) FREE with a $300 order
5. Dies--Scalloped Contours  (#155560)
6. Ink-- Misty Moonlight and Highland Heather
7. Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon (#155615)
8. Heart and Home Doilies (#157956)
9. Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#158130)
10. Basic supplies--bone folder, Paper Snips, adhesive (Multipurpose Glue), Regular Dimensionals, Die Cutting and Embossing Machine, Glue Dots, Blending Brushes 

Let's make this card! Start by using your Blending Brushes and the Misty Moonlight ink to add some color to the Simply Marbelous paper. Be sure to let some of the purple colors show! Fold your card base in half and adhere this piece to the front--I like to use our Multipurpose Glue as it is so forgiving. 

Now for the stamping. Using Misty Moonlight ink, stamp the large camellia stamp onto the Scalloped Contours die that you already cut out (or stamp first then cut if you prefer). Then using a blending brush or a sponge dauber, add some Highland Heather ink to your flowers--don't worry about coloring outside the lines as it will look fine. 

Stamp the leaf stamp in Misty Moonlight on the inside Basic White piece then glue it to the inside of your card. Stamp the leaf also on your envelope like below. If you want to add a sentiment to the inside, do it before gluing it down.


Cut one of the Misty Moonlight Doilies in half and glue it to the card then add your stamped camellia on top using Dimensionals. Tie a bow with the Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon and stick it on with a Glue Dot. Use 3 Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels in the center of your flowers and you are done.

  Floating Christmas Tree So if you make a lot of holiday cards like I do, it is time to start working on them! I know, I know, we haven't had Halloween yet, but if you want to send them out before the holiday it is time to get working. And this lovely card was inspired by someone else (sorry I just took a picture of it but there was no name on it so I can't thank you) who used her scraps to make the tree. I took it one step further and made a floating scraps tree. I've been wanting to make a card with this technique for a while and I knew this tree would look fabulous like this. And the second bonus is that I got to use up a ton of Lights Aglow scraps, even the small ones. All you need to do is cut your scraps into 1/2" pieces, attach them to a piece of window sheet and then cut out whatever shape you like. What an amazing way to use up something you might have otherwise thrown out. Win! Win! If you get lost making this card, or you are just a visual learner, please w

Something Fancy Before I get to making this card, I want to announce that I am selling Mystery Boxes of retired Stampin' Up product. These are a medium sized USPS Priority Mail box and they will be stuffed with product. Each box will include a minimum of 10 Stampin' Up stamps and at least 2 of them will be a bundle with either a die set or a punch. They will all have at least one retired embossing folder as well as embellishments and ribbon. You won't know what you are getting, so if you like surprises and getting over $250 worth of products for only $50, please email me at stampwithdrrobin@gmail.com. If you don't recognize this Designer Series Paper or the sentiment and dies, it is because this is a sneak peak at the Something Fancy bundle from the upcoming Jan-April Mini Catalog that goes live next month.

One Horse Open Sleigh Card We have a lot of wonderful things starting 7/6/23 over on Stampin' Up. First up is everyone can now buy several new products that are On-Line Exclusives, including this lovely 6" by 6"  Designer Series Paper called One Horse Open Sleigh. It is made to go with a new horse and sleigh stamp set, but as you can see, it is beautiful on its own. It has lovely wintery scenes on one side and nice small images on the other side. Perfect for holiday cards, but also great for other types of cards. Today I decided to make it in to a birthday card that you can use for a male or female birthday.  Another thing that starts 7/6 is we get a Clearance Rack refresh so check it out for some amazing deals.
