Dandelion Wishes

One more hurrah for Dandelion Wishes. I just had to play again with a set that I have really enjoyed creating with. 

I started with Old Olive card base. The Basic White layer was sponged with some Old Olive ink on the edges. I used a technique called block stamping for the square. I inked up my D block with Flirty Flamingo ink. I then misted the block and stamped it on my Basic White cardstock. After letting it dry, I added the blown dandelion over the top. The Tailor Tag punch contains the greeting, which was sponged with Flirty Flamingo ink.


I used the Layering Squares to create frames for over the top of the image. I really like the way this turned out and I will have to remember to do this again! Don't forget that you want to stamp before you emboss the cardstock or you won't get a crisp image.


I started with a piece of Sahara Sand and stamped the dandelions on the cardstock with VersaMark. I embossed them with white embossing powder. I then used a sponge dauber to add some Sahara Sand ink to the centers of the dandelions. I then layered two of the Stitched Labels dies on the cardstock and ran it through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine. I removed the small frame that was cut. Adhere the outside layer with adhesive and the center with dimensionals.


I loved blowing the dandelion wisps when I was a kid. This stamp set has reminded me of many memories with my mom. I will miss this set.

Happy Stampin'!

Dandalion Wishes

Dandelion Wishes has been part of the Stampin' Up! selection for quite a while and it has completed it's journey with us. Retirement has been hard earned. 

I didn't want to retire my set until I played with it one more time. I started with Rich Razzleberry card base. I inked up the dandelions with Bermuda Bay.  I then used a sponge dauber to add Rich Razzleberry to the centers of the dandelions. I stamped the floating seeds with Bermuda Bay. The ribbon was colored with my dark Rich Razzleberry blend. The sentiment was sponged along the edges with Bermuda Bay. A few rhinestones completed the card.


I did a Facebook Live creating this card. You can watch the replay HERE if you would like. I created the strip with plastic wrap and ink pads. So fun and easy! Start by squeezing your ink pads together to put some ink on the lid of the pads. I then put some water drops on the ink. Tear off some plastic wrap from the roll and dip it into one color. Pounce the color on your cardstock. Pick up more ink as needed. You can use the same piece of plastic wrap or tear another piece off and repeat with the next color.


Bermuda Bay is my card base. I stamped the seeds with Bermuda Bay ink on the card base. The dandelions were also stamped with Bermuda Bay and layered on Rich Razzleberry. The ribbon was colored with dark Rich Razzleberry blends. The greeting was stamped and the panel was adhered with dimensionals.


I have another set of cards using this stamp set that I will be sharing soon. This other set has a different color combination and some other fun things to take your stamping up a notch!

Happy Stampin'!
