Happy Arty Days: Spellbinders Guest Designer : Inked Messages Stamp & Die Sets #3

Hi Crafty Friends!

I have really enjoyed creating with the beautiful

Inked Messages Stamp & Die Sets Collection by Stephanie Low!

I hope my projects will inspire you to try these fabulous products!

For my final post, I am sharing cards created with the

SDS - 139 A Rose By Any Other Name Stamp & Die Set

&

SDS -140 One Day At A Time Stamp & Die Set

Roses are a favorite of mine, so I couldn't wait to play with that stamp first!
Here's what I created....

Sigh! Aren't these stamps divine?!!

With such beautiful and intricate designs, I opted for a clean & simple approach to really highlight them!

Both cards are created from smooth white cardstock. The stamps are also printed onto this cardstock, and applied using black permament ink. I use colored markers to fill the images, and then use my Platinum 6 Die Cutting & Embossing Machine & their coordinating dies to precisely cut them out.

Here's a closer look....................

Isn't that Siren / Sea Faring Girl just stunning?!

But it was the roses that had my heart! Gor-jus!

I pop a little white tangled thread beneath the large rose, and then glue the rose on top. I use thick foam tape beneath the Siren, and attach to the card front.

A few clear rhinsetones complete this striking CAS card!

I use a similar approach for the larger 5" x 7" version.....

Loving the red for the roses! So elegant and beautiful!

That Siren is a lil mesmerising! What a heartbreaker!

SO many creative possibilities with this set! LOVE!

Last, but by no means least, I am sharing two support and healing cards.....

Oh, how lovely!

What a beautiful way to show someone that they're loved & not alone during tough times!

Like the previous cards, I have stamped onto smooth white cardstock, and filled the images with ink markers. I use their coordinating dies to cut them out, and again, feature tangled threads beneath the main image. I use foam tape to add a little dimension, and embellish with a few pearls.

Super quick & simple, but oh so pretty!

The inclusion of lace trim beneath the stamped image really softens this somber card. With it's cooler color scheme, this card would be very appropriate as a sympathy card.

With a modern and warm color scheme, this card is ideal for your bestie's break up blues! The warm colors signal playfulness and hope. Such a great idea for this stamp & die set!
