another fun set of swap cards have arrived and I am highlighting all of the cute work that some of my team and sideline demonstrators have been up to!

My first swap card share is from Andrea U and features a lovely In Color card using the Unbounded love bundle and the Perennial Postage dies in Pretty In Pink and Peach Pie cardstock, picking up the colors in the DSP used from the Unbounded Love 12″ x 12″ DSP!

Even the inside is decorated!

Robin C’s swap card used the Under the Moon stamp set for a lovely sunset sailing cruise card in hues of Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Azure Afternoon!

The next swap card is from Jennie T and used the Countryside Corners stamps and dies to create the focal point the dies are still available in the current catalog, and the Crafting with You stamp set for the flowers. The Countryside Inn DSP lends itself well to the cottage feel of this card!

Both Robyns decided to use the Under the Moon stamp set – so my downline Robyn made a clever fun fold to show the versatility of the Under the Moon stamp set. Showing day and night panels with alternating Country Woods DSP!

Carol S’s swap card used the Seaside Wishes in Pool Party and Calypso Coral tones! LOVE this set and this card!

Kathi D featured the Thoughtful Journey Suite on her swap card and I love the clean lines on this swap card. Using a die cut in Misty Moonlight to pull out the blue tones in the Thoughtful Journey DSP!

Veronica’s Spotlight on Nature swap card is mounted on a Smoky Slate base card with a layer of Petunia Pop and flowers and butterfly colored with coordinating Stampin’ Blends!

Lori V’s Sea Turtle card features the Deckled Circle die and the large and small turtle fussy cut on a Soft Sea Foam card base.

And our last swap card is our swap coordinator Denise W, who also picked out the Sea Turtle stamp set for her swap card! In hues of Pretty Peacock she used the bone folder to break the fibers of the Pretty Peacock extra layer to make a faux suede piece to go underneath the Sea Turtles stamps image!

Hope these swap cards gave you some ideas for your own creations – now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

more color mondays – misty moonlight, flirty flamingo and balmy blue

by nataliegramleystamps | Jul 15, 2024 | card samples, color challenge, more color mondays, stamps ink paper

Color inspiration can come from anywhere – las week I took a picture of a lovely sunrise! I am blessed to live in my forever dream home – we moved to the lake 2 years ago after designing and remodeling a lakefront property that we purchased a year before that. We live on the western shore of Conneaut Lake and have gorgeous sunrises often.

I have MANY MANY pictures of different sunrises and this one became the inspiration for today’s More Color Monday Color Challenge.
Every week I look for colors around me to inspire Monday’s projects and to inspire you to create with more color combinations – sometimes taking us out of our usual and familiar!

Measurements:
BASE: Balmy Blue 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
scrap for the sentiment
Basic White: 3 3/4″ x 4 1/2″
scrap for the sentiment die
Misty Moonlight: 4″ x 4 5/8″
Flirty Flamingo: 4 1/8″ x 4 3/4″
scrap for the sentiment

Stamp the water image in Balmy Blue at the bottom of the Basic White layer.

Ink the sun and cloud image from the Under the Moon stamp set in the Flirty Flamingo ink.

Using the Blending brushes dab Misty Moonlight on the clouds in the foreground of the sun and cloud stamp image.
Stamp in the center of the Basic White layer directly above the water image.

Stamp the cloud image in Balmy Blue in a random pattern leaving space for more clouds in and Misty Moonlight color as well.

Stamp the cloud image in between the Balmy Blue cloud stamped images in Misty Moonlight.

Using a blending brush color the edges of the Basic White layer with Balmy Blue ink.

Stamp the sailboat in Misty Moonlight in the foreground in front of the sun image.

Die cut a circle die from the Spotlight on Nature dies, and use a Balmy Blue and flirty Flamingo strip for the sentiment piece. Stamp the sentiment word in the circle in Misty Moonlight ink and the companion saying on the Balmy Blue strip. Adhere the strips under the circle die and cut the left edge at an angle for added visual interest.

Adhere the Basic White layer to the Misty Moonlight layer but instead of centering the layers I added them left justified for something a little different! It is amazing how just that small change makes the card look entirely different!
Continue to add the Flirty Flamingo layer justifying the layers so the left hand edges match.

Adhere the layers onto the Balmy Blue base card.
Add the sentiment focal piece to the top of the Basic White layer.

Add five Adhesive-Backed Sequins Trio embellishments in the pink color to finish the card!

Try scene building with your stamps and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 29, 2024 | card samples, color challenge, embossing folders, more color mondays, my favorites, new catalog, sneak peak, stamps ink paper

Today’s More Color Monday is a simple stamping card using stamps, ink and paper in complimentary colors off the new color wheel in the upcoming catalog!
Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Coastal Cabana compliment each other beautifully and highlight this sneak peek of the Under the Moon stamp set and a new embossing folder too!

Measurements:
BASE: Coastal Cabana 5 1/2″ 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, 3 3/8″ x 4 3/8″
Pretty Peacock: 4 ” x 5 1/4″
Pool Party: 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″
Basic White: 3″ x 4″

Emboss the Pretty Peacock layer with the new

In the upcoming catalog there are a few Embossing Folders that are a new size – extra large!! Oh the possibilities! This sneak peek at the Dotted Circles embossing folder that is 6″ x 8.5″!! Crazy, in the photo below the embossed piece of cardstock is 4″ x 5 1/4″ for reference!

Emboss the Pretty Peacock layer with the new Dotted Circles 3D Embossing Folder!

Stamp a scene using the various images in the Under the Moon stamp set on the Basic White layer.
Adhere to the Basic White stamped layer to the Coastal Cabana layer.

Adhere the Coastal Cabana to the Pool Party layer. Turn the layers on a diagonal and pop up on Stampin’ Dimensional. Adhere to the Pretty Peacock layer and adhere all of them to the Coastal Cabana cardstock card base.

Place Glossy dots on the front to finish the card and I added a sentiment on the inside for a friend of mine that just lost her sweet husband – cards can be such a comfort to those we love in their times of need!
Now go and create some art work of your very own and send some cards to those you love – you never know how it could change a person’s whole day!

Happy Stampin’
