Stamp Review Crew ~ Beauty Abounds

It’s Jay here and I am back with the Stamp Review Crew, sharing projects using the wonderful Beauty Abounds stamp set

Welcome and thank you for stopping by. I am starting the blog hop this week and you can continue on to see more amazing projects designed by the Stamp Review Crew from the list at the end of this post

It’s been such a fun week as Barry and I attended the Stampin’ Up! local event at Telford #onstage2019 It went quick but it was pack full of excitement. I am happy to say that the Beauty Abounds stamp set will be carrying over with the co-ordinating Butterfly Beauty Dies although the Bundle and Save offer will not. So it’s best to get both now and save 10%, you can have more for the upcoming new Stampin’ Up! products 🙂

I created 3 cards during the week as I knew that the weekend would be busy. I managed to photographed them all and planned on blogging before we went to Telford. That didn’t happen as I instead concentrated on our swaps. So here are the 3 card projects I designed for this hop…

Card Details:

Cardbase: 21cm x 14cm, folded in half at 10.5cm OR 8 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, folded in half at 4 1/8″

Card Layer: 9.5cm x 13cm OR 3 3/4″ x 5 1/8″

Inks: Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point and Coastal Cabana

I stamped the splatter and bokeh circle designs on the card layer first before embossing with the Subtle DTIEF

I added 2 of the Lemon Lime Twist die cut flourishes (cutting 1 shorter to add later on the top left of the butterfly) before adding the strip of sentiment with dimensionals

The Very Vanilla circle was punched with the 2″ design and then laid the black butterfly die cut on top

Finished off with Clear Wink of Stella and the Mini Gold Sequin Trim

Card Details

Cardbase: 10.5cm x 28cm, folded in half at 14cm OR 11″ x 4 1/8″, folded in half at 5 1/2″

The mat and layer were corner punched with the Detailed Trio Punch

Stamp the flourish design top and bottom in Pacific Point ink and spread the colours on the flowers with Clear Wink of Stella

I used the Stampin’ Blends to add depth and interest on the card, the Color Lifter is a must for great blending!

Add the Linen Thread before adhering the layer and mat on the cardbase then finished off with the butterfly die cuts coloured in Pacific Point and Wink of Stella

For my final card, I CASEd a fellow Stamp Review Crew, the talented Lou Kitzelman and created her Adapted Easel card! You can find more info on Lou’s amazing easel cards HERE. I slightly changed the card measurements to fit the beautiful Butterfly Beauty die cut

Card Details

Cardbase: 10.2cm x 28cm, scored at 3.2cm and folded in half at 14cm OR 4″ x 11″, scored at 1 1/4″ and folded in half at 5 1/2″

Card Mats: 9.5cm x 10.2cm and 9.5cm x 2.5cm (twice) OR 3 3/4″ x 4″ and 3 3/4″ x 1″ (twice)

Inks: Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point and Coastal Cabana

I die cut the 2 butterfly designs in Basic Black to strengthen the topper

I also die cut the top butterfly layer in Whisper White then coloured using a dauber before adhering

The Very Vanilla large mat was embossed with the Softly Falling design before adhering in the cardbase

1 strip of the Very Vanilla was stuck on the bottom as is then glued the butterflies on top

The other strip was then stamped with the sentiment, bokeh and flourish before adhering with dimensionals inside the card to create the stopper
