So Refreshing Limeade Card

Friends, when we were in Curaçao for our 30th anniversary trip, one of the drinks available every day in the resort's restaurant was lime juice. It was so refreshing, with its tart zing and subtle sweetness!

So today I'm sharing a card showing a pitcher of limeade. It's made with the So Refreshing Stamp Set and uses minimal supplies & equipment.

Here's my card:

To make this card, I started by using my So Refreshing Stamp Set to stamp onto scraps of Basic White Cardstock:

• a pitcher outline and two glass outlines in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
• contents of all the above in Lemon Lime Twist Ink
• a lime slice onto the top of the pitcher in Lemon Lime Twist Ink

I then arranged a 1 3/4" x 5" strip of Glorious Gingham DSP in Lemon Lime Twist at the bottom of a 3 3/4" x 5" panel of Basic White Cardstock. (I did not adhere it yet, to allow for re-stamping if needed.) I stamped my sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink at the top right corner of the Basic White panel.

Here's the Glorious Gingham DSP, which retires April 30 and is now discounted:

Next, I adhered the Glorious Gingham strip to the Basic White panel. 

I then stretched a length of Parakeet Party Metallic Woven Ribbon across the panel, securing on the back with Mini Glue Dots. I also fed a small length through the strip of ribbon, tying and trimming it.

I attached the Basic White panel to a 4" x 5 1/4" Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock panel. I used Paper Snips scissors to cut out the pitcher and glasses, then added them to the panel. If you'd rather use the So Refreshing Dies, they are retiring soon and on sale:

With Stampin' Dimensionals™, I attached the panels to a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Basic White Thick Cardstock card base. As a final step, I embellished with Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems.

To make this card, I started by cutting a tag from Basic White Cardstock, using the Designer Tags Dies. I then stamped my sentiment from the Share a Milkshake Stamp Set onto it in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.

I love the decorative Designer Tags Dies, especially for the largest tag, which you can feed ribbon through:

Next, I stamped a cherry in Sweet Sorbet Ink, repeatedly and randomly, over a 3 3/4" x 5" panel of Basic White Cardstock. 

Helpful Hints: rotate the cherry each time you stamp, for a random look. Also, make sure to stamp over the edges of the panel.

Sweet Sorbet is one of the 2022-2024 In Colors™ retiring at the end of the month. It's a good idea to order your Sweet Sorbet items now, before they sell out. As I write, the Ink Refill has sold out, but the ink pad, cardstock, and markers are still available.

I attached the stamped cherry panel to a 4" x 5 1/4" Basic Black Cardstock panel. Then I cut enough Black & Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon to feed through the tag, and adhere to the back of the Basic Black panel - but I did not adhere it yet. 

First, I added a little Stampin' Seal to the back of the tag, then adhered the ribbon to it. I also applied Stampin' Dimensionals™ to the tag and attached it to the cherry panel. Then I secured the ribbon's ends to the back of the Basic Black panel with Mini Glue Dots™.

I then fed a small length of the ribbon through the piece on the card, at the left of the tag. I tied and trimmed it.

A very similar ribbon - Black & White Gingham - is retiring soon and currently on sale. It would work great in this card! Here it is:

Using the Cherry Builder Punch, I punched out a:

• cherry from Sweet Sorbet Cardstock
• leaf from Parakeet Party Cardstock
• stem from Pecan Pie Cardstock

I pieced the cherry together with tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then used Stampin' Dimensionals™ to add the cherry to the card.

This fantastic punch is retiring soon and 50% off. At just $15, it's a steal!

As a final touch, I embellished with 2022-2024 In Color™ Pearls. They've now sold out, but another embellishment of your choice would work equally well.

Hot Air Balloon Scalloped Detail Card

Friends, today's card is the 3rd in my series featuring the Hot Air Balloon Bundle. 

These cards were part of this month's $15 card class that I offer to my Creative Cafe team. I'd love to have you join the fun and get the perks! Learn more here.

Here's today's card:

To make this card, I started by stamping onto Basic White Cardstock:

• a balloon in Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly Inks 
• a balloon basket in Crumb Cake Ink

I then die cut:

• the stamped items with Hot Air Balloon Dies
• a tag with Hot Air Balloon Dies from Basic White Cardstock
• a circle with Stylish Shapes Dies from Crumb Cake Cardstock
• a scalloped edge with Scalloped Contours Dies from a 1 1/2" x 5 1/4" strip of Soft Shimmer Specialty Paper (Bubble Bath)

The Soft Shimmer Specialty Paper, with its lovely glittery finish, has been a favourite of mine this past year. It's retiring soon but is still available as I write this post:

Next, I stamped my sentiments from the Hot Air Balloon Stamp Set in Crumb Cake Ink onto the tag.

From there, it was just a matter of assembly. I added a 4" x 5 1/4" panel of Lighter Than Air DSP to a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Crumb Cake Cardstock card base. Then I layered on the Soft Shimmer Specialty Paper strip.

Using Stampin' Dimensionals™ and Mini Stampin' Dimensionals™, I attached all the die cuts. Then I embellished with Glossy Dots Assortment.
