NC Demos Blog Hop May 2020

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop for May 2020!

It is time to say goodbye to the 2018-2020 Stampin' Up catalog, so we wanted to share our favorite outgoing products, unfortunately for me there are soooo many! But for the sake of choosing one, I chose to highlight the amazing batch of Designer Series Paper (DSP). I also incorporated a few other favorites that will be going, a-buh-bye: the Flourishing Phrases Stamp Set, the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder, Silver Glimmer Paper and Silver Thread. I had to go buy up some extra of that for my stash, once I discovered the trick to using it, I use it all of the time!

~Enjoy!


I started out using the Magnolia Lane DSP and paired it with Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Whisper White and Very Vanilla. The black background with the magnolias is a stunning piece of DSP and turned into my favorite cards out of this grouping. I started with some tried and true layouts and created 2 cards for each design with the black and white paper.

Here is the collection and you can get the details for each card below!



Now go check out these other amazing projects!!

Side Panel Layouts 3 Ways

On our May digital play date with Tracy & Jane, we picked a layout and applied 3 different applications with the same color choices - I love how these turned out and bonus: quick & simple cards with a wow effect!

~Enjoy!


First up, a shout out to my favorite designer from whom this card was CASEd from Pinterest: Tammy Wilson. She makes the most beautiful cards! For this sample she used Label me bold. Tracy was the only one to have this stamp set, so the rest of us improvised.

We also picked a color challenge of Pretty Peacock, Rich Razzleberry and Mango Melody. For this first card, I used some diamond stamps from my stash (Grunge Rock would work for this too) and gave it a light spritzing with water to blur the pattern a little more. I mounted the stamped strip on Rich Razzleberry card stock and then on Whisper White that was embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder. I stamped the sentiment from Itty Bitty Birthdays on Basic Black cardstock and VersaMark and heat embossed it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. I trimmed the sentiment in Whisper White to give it the negative affect of the original card. I also added a little Silver Glimmer Paper, because, duh, birthday cards need a little pizzazz! I finished the whole thing off with some Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon and just a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels.


For this card I used the dots from the Timeless Textures Stamp Set and it is mounted on pretty Peacock and Whisper White that was embossed with the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder (I love this one!) The sentiment is form my stash with all of the same steps as above.


Lastly, one of my favorite quick & easy backgrounds is the swish! To make the background, I dragged each color across a piece of Whisper White cardstock. Hold the ink pad so that only the top edge hits the paper then quickly drag the pad across the paper back & forth in a diagonal. The trick here is not to press too hard, take a running start at your paper and do it really fast. For this one I used the the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder and a little Whisper White Bakers Twine as my finishing touch.
