Hello stamping buddies! I've been playing around with the Simply Leaves stamp set quite a bit lately. I can't seem to leave it alone! Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to posting all the cards separately. So, today I thought I'd do something a little differently. Instead of going in depth on a single card, I'd give a thumbnail version of each card and share them all at once. Let's see how this works out. I'd love to hear your feedback on what you think about it.
For the first idea, the 2026-2028 In Color Gingham DSP would be used. Start with Very Vanilla cardstock for the card base. A 5 1/4" x 4" layer of Very Vanilla was cut and embossed with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder.
This layer was softly colored on the edges with a Blending Brush and Golden Glow ink. Then it was attached to the card base with Dimensionals.
The Gingham DSP in Golden Glow was cut to 2 1/4" x 5 1/4" and attached to the vanilla layer with adhesive.
Two different large leaves were stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock. One used Golden Glow and the other was Cajun Craze ink. Both were punched with the coordinating punch. The small leaf was stamped with Cajun Craze ink and fussy cut. The leaves are arranged on the card and attached with both adhesive and Dimensionals.
The sentiment is from Simply Leaves. It's stamped on Very Vanilla with Cajun Craze ink. A little Golden Glow ink was brushes on the edges. It's attached with Dimensionals.
A double strand of Linen Thread was tied into a bow and attached with Mini Glue Dots.
Three of the 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Golden Glow were added to the design.
This card starts with a Basic Beige cardstock base. A 3 3/4" x 5" layer of the same was cut. It's embossed with the new Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder that will be available in August. A slight amount of Peaceful Pine ink was added to it with a Blending Brush.
A 3 7/8"x 5 1/8" layer of Peaceful Pine was added between the two layers.
Three different leaves from the Simply Leaves set were stamped onto Basic Beige cardstock, then punched with the coordinating punch. Two leaves were off-stamped before stamping to give a lighter color.
The leaves were arranged and attached to the card front using both adhesive and Dimensionals.
The 3/8" Bordered Ribbon in Peaceful Pine was cut in half lengthwise then tied into a double bow. It's attached with Mini Glue Dots.
The sentiment is from Banner Sayings stamp set. It's stamped on a Basic Beige strip with Peaceful Pine ink. A skinny layer of Peaceful Pine cardstock is added behind the stamped layer. Then it's added to the card front with Dimensionals.
Two of the red Ladybug Garden Epoxy Shapes were attached to the card for a cute pop of color.
This version has a Golden Glow base with a layer of the 2026-2028 In Color Gingham DSP added.
A 2 1/4" wide strip of Basic White was punched with a retired edge punch to give a lacy design. This was added across the card front.
Three of the large leaves from Simply Leaves were stamped using either Cajun Craze or Peaceful Pine inks. The golden one is punched from 2026-2028 In Color Pearlized Specialty Paper. Nice addition!
The sentiment is from the new Fun For Fall stamp set. It's stamped with Cajun Craze ink.
There is a bow added made from the Peaceful Pine Ribbon. It's attached with Mini Glue Dots.
Two of the 2026-2028 In Color Dots in the Peaceful Pine color were added near the sentiment.
The last card is a CASE card from Barb Brimhall - BZBStamper. Even though I cased the card there are a few changes.
The card base is Basic Beige. Five different prints from the Paper Medley DSP were used to punch out two leaves each. The dotted vein stamp was stamped onto each leaf with Cajun Craze ink. The leaves were arranged on the card then attached with adhesive. Then any extra hanging over the edges was cut off.
A Sweet Words & Labels die was used to cut a Basic White label. Another sentiment from the Fun For Fall set was stamped with Peaceful Pine ink. The label is attached with Dimensionals.
A double strand of Linen Thread was used to tie a bow that is attached with Mini Glue Dots.
One last look at the mix of cards shared today. I hope you have enough information that you can copy any of these that catch your eye. They were all fairly quick and easy to create. I find that to be a good way to build up my stash of cards so I'm ready when something is needed at the last minute. Any questions you have about any of them, feel free to contact me at sharoncarr50@gmail.com
Thanks for stopping by today. Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of the new format. Does less commentary and less info on measurements etc., but more ideas shown work? Also, do the products in bold type help or hinder your perusal of the ideas. Just trying to give you a better experience and make it easier to try the ideas yourself.
Happy stamping and creating,
Sharon
