Right at Home Shop | Peace On Earth

Hello all! Hope you are having a great week so far!! We are nearing to the weekend and that also means my birthday!!  This month the DT for Right at Home shop has been featuring a different stamp each week from the Holiday Release.  This week we are focusing on the sentiment stamp set Magic of the Season.

To start my card, I die cut a piece of kraft card stock from a stitched scallop rectangle die to create a small focal panel.  I took the stamp set Holiday Ribbons and I stamped one of the patterns to create "faux ribbons" on my panel.  I took the "x" pattern first and I heat embossed it in gold embossing powder, followed by stamping the diamond strip on top with Lobster ink.  Next, I stamped my sentiment Peace on Earth, but I wanted to stamp it in a stacked pattern in the middle in Pine Needles ink.  To stamp my sentiment, I carefully inked up the sentiment one word at a time, and there was enough space in between to use my small ink cube to ink of the sentiment.

For an extra touch, I stamped the berries and branch images from Bits and Pieces: Winter since I had just enough space to fit those in on the right and left of the word " On" in my sentiment.

I wanted to create a background to stand out from my focal point, so I took another piece of kraft card stock, and prepped it with my powder tool, and inked up the Gingham Background with white pigment ink, and then applied some detail white embossing powder to really make the white background pop!  I then added a strip of green striped washi tape from my stash and added it to the middle to bring out more of the green in my sentiment, and then took one of the stitched frame dies from the Find the Beauty die set, and die cut my panel so it would have the stitched detail all the way around.  

For assembly of my card, I added some foam tape to my focal panel, and adhered it to my embossed background piece, and then added that to a top fold A2 size kraft card base. For a final small touch, I added a bit of shimmer to my berries with my Wink of Stella shimmer pen.

Thank you all for stopping in today, and remember to head over the Right At Home Shop to find these sets I used today and many others!! Have a great day!

Multi Colored Metallic Embossed Thank You Card

Hi my friends!
Today, I am here to share this card showcasing the popular set from Right At Home called Grateful Heart.  It has been one that I have used a lot over the past month.  It just has so many different and great images and sentiments for the fall season!

Today, I wanted create a card design with multiple metallic embossing powders, so I created a background using the thank you sentiment first, and stamping it with my Versa Mark ink, and embossing it with Liquid Platinum embossing powder.  I wanted to give a finished edge or border so I used the Holiday Ribbons stamp set to create this look, and I embossed it in Silver embossing powder.

Then, I really wanted to incorporate some Rose Gold embossing powder, so I stamped the pumpkin from the set onto a piece of vellum that I die cut with a cross stitched rectangle die.  I also wanted to give it a distressed edge and bring out more the Rose Gold embossing powder, so I coated the all four edges of my vellum piece and them embossed it with that gorgeous powder.  

I die cut my main panel using the rectangle frames from the Find The Beauty die set, and I tape them together to also create a frame.  I also did the same with a piece of pattern paper to compliment the embossing through out my design.  

I put all of my pieces together on my A2 white card base, and popped up my frame.  

I felt like I need something to finish off my card, so I added a few rose gold, sparkling clear and silver sequins.  And, that completes my card for today!  I love all of the different embossing looks on one card.  

Thanks for stopping by today!!  Be sure to visit the Right At Home Shop as the awesome Fall and Holiday is now available, AND there are coordinating dies for a lot of the sets for the release available now too!!  

Stay Crafty!

Celebrate featuring Right At Home stamps!

Hello all!  Today, I am featuring some Right At Home stamps both from the new release and from a previous release.  I love how that you can mix and match stamp sets no matter when they have been released, and make them work on your projects all year round.

I wanted to feature the new set Find The Beauty, which is a lovely builder set with fun flower images.  

I started by die cutting a piece of smooth white card stock, and a scallop frame from Pretty Pink Posh. On my white card panel, I took one of the flower images and stamped down the main solid image flower, and then took the builder images for the flower and stamped them using different colors of ink to really make it pop.  I wanted the center of the flower to stand out with the sentiment, so I stamped the middle flower accent, and took my powder tool to ensure that no embossing powder wouldn't stick to areas where I didn't want it, and then I used my Versa Mark ink, and stamped my image down, then coating it with Gold embossing powder and heat setting it.  I wanted leaves around my flower, so I took another one of the building images that suppose to accent another flower, and turned it into leaves.  I just made a mask for my flower and stamped my "leaves" to make it look like they were behind my flower.  

For my sentiment, I used the oh so popular Script Greetings, and used the Celebrate sentiment, and also embossed it in Gold embossing powder.  

To finish up my card, I took the scallop frame, and inked around it with an ombre' look, and then adhered that onto a piece of kraft and gold foiled pattern paper to really set off the gold accents on my card.  I adhered my main panels onto a 5 x 5 white card base.

I wanted to keep it fairly clean a simple as I wanted my focal images to take stage!

You can find the stamp sets and more of the latest release over at the Right at Home store!!

Thanks for stopping by today!  I will see you very soon!
