In This World Dimensional Card

I here quite often how difficult it is to do masculine themed cards or gender neutral for people who don't like pretty pretty cards with flowers and ribbons etc. In This World stamp set has some lovely stamps which lend themselves to this type of card.

I used three pieces of whisper white cardstock, stamped the sentiment in the smallest layer then laid them together so I could stamp. Using dapper denim and crushed curry I used the graphic stamp to create the background, then mounted on dimensionals to create height. I then stamped three keys from this set and fussy cut and coloured in crushed curry, you will need a craft knife to cut the centre of the key. Then using some hessian/burlap ribbon split to give individual threads I threaded each key and mounted with dimensional pieces round the card.

The effect is simple and non fussy yet stunning and ideal for masculine cards.

Stampin Up In This World

It's funny how sometimes a fabulous stamp set just jumps out at me and has many possibilities that I have to just go ahead and purchase it.

Well the Stampin Up In this World is just one of those sets and I think it is one that is being overlooked. So here is a few ideas that may just get your creative juices flowing and make you go ahead and buy it.  If you do then click the link above and go to the Stampin Up official website order and then choose me Jane Allmark as your demonstrator of choice.

 Ok so the first card is made taking the lovely butterfly stamp and cutting five out to make a hexagon. I used the aquapainters to watercolour picking up some crumb cake which I used in the background, dapper denim and peekaboo peach, two of the in colours. I love the sentiment too and I think it makes a fab card.

 The lovely door by cutting it open and the. Stamping the chair behind it makes for a lovely card with a bit of a difference. Again the aquapainter came into its own. I must admit I use them all the time as you can get some lovely subtle or bright tones even on normal cardstock as these examples are.

Another butterfly card stamped directly onto cardstock and watercoloured. I love the hexagon shape and the subtle blue tones by using various blue tones of ink pads. Again all products used are Stampin Up so whatever craft stash you need Stampin Up has it.

 This one uses the door, chair and key and background stamp. The sentiment this time I cut up and out across the card in a random fashion. I love this card and is great for those difficult masculine cards.

So a few ideas using this fun set and I am sure there are many more. Just have a go and let your creativity flow.

Happy stamping and thanks for dropping by.

Stampin Up In this World

The new Stampin up catalogue is now in full swing and I have chosen some lovely stamp sets to use and showcase.

This stamp set In this World is a gorgeous set with quite and antique architectural style.  It would be great for a male card, someone who is into woodwork in any way or just a modern style of card.

This one I mounted on black and cut the sentiment is strips to use across the card. I coloured the door in several shades of brown and used two tones of red/pinks for the butterfly and chair. Stampin up markers are fab for this.

This second card is a step up as I used crumb cake cardstock and inked tone on tone in crumb cake round the edges and on the sentiment. I fussy cut the door and the chair in whisper White cardstock, coloured and then stuck to the crumb cake. This gives more of a vintage feel and without the butterfly makes a lovely masculine card.

All the supplies used are from Stampin Up and if you click on the link above it takes you to their website where you can order.  Please if you do use me Jane Allmark as your demonstrator of choice.
