Artisan Textures – Center Stage Stamping

display samples – part 5

April 18, 2018 By Mary Haugen

Today’s display samples feature the NEW Rooted in Nature stamp set. This is a great set which offers a lot of versatility. I love the sentiments in it.

The Tree Rings background stamp pairs perfectly with this beautiful tree. I used a thin strip of Fresh Fig to ground the Vanilla Panel. I die cut the small circle from the Stitched Label framelits in Soft Sky and stamped the sentiment in fresh Fig.

For this card, I started with a piece of the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper. I stamped the splatter from Artisan Textures with Versa Mark and embossed with Copper embossing powder. The Circles are from the Stitched Shapes and Stitched Labels framelits. I love the little bit of copper accents with Powder Pink and Blackberry Bliss. I’m happy Blackberry Bliss is joining the core color line with the new catalog!

I love gray and yellow together. The leaves are embossed with the new Pineapple Punch embossing powder. Pineapple Punch is one of the new In Colors for 2018. Such a bright cheerful yellow. I used the lines from Artisan Textures to help break up the white space.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!

I’m back with a few more samples with the Artisan Textures stamp set. This set is great for making your own designer background paper.

My color scheme for this card is Whisper White, Lemon Lime Twist and Pool Party. I used All Things Thanks stamp set for the sentiment panel.

Why not use a stamp to color with? I started with a piece of Petal Passion Designer Series Paper, which is just black and white. I added Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry and Pear Pizazz with one of the stamps in the Artisan Textures set. Coloring made simple. I stamped the sentiment in white craft ink on a die cut from the Stitched Labels Framelits and added some doilies to finish it off.

This little treat bag started as a plain envelope! I hope to do a quick tutorial post on this next week. Again, I stamped the background, this time using Bermuda Bay, Sweet Sugarplum and Lemon Lime Twist. The two circles are die cuts from the Stitched Labels Framelits. The sentiment is for the NEW Rooted in Nature set. (I will have samples featuring that set tomorrow.) .

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!

Wow, what a weekend. It’s the middle of April, and this weekend when had a two day blizzard that dumped 15+ inches. of. snow. Seriously. I’m not joking.

This was the view from my deck early Saturday afternoon. It just kept coming. It snowed all day Saturday and all day Sunday. At times we couldn’t even see across the street! I am so over this. I just want sun and warmth. I want to wear my sandals and go out in just shirt sleeves. I don’t want to feel cold any more.

At least today’s Display Samples are bright and cheerful. These creations feature the Artisan Textures stamp set.

This first card I used the paint swatch stamp in Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Lemon Lime Twist to creat a fun background. I stamped the line image in Basic Black for some contrast. The sentiment is from the Rooted in Nature stamp set. (another new set. more samples of that coming later.)

On this card, I stamped several of the images in a cluster as a background for the sentiment. I used a strip from the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper and stamped various words from the Thoughtful Banners stamp set. This is a great card to let someone know you think they are amazing!

Today’s last cardagain uses the Artisan Textures images for a fun back ground. Colors are Tranquil Tide, Fresh Fig and Crumb Cake. I added some Embossing Paste with the brick stencil to add some more texture behind the Celebrate You Thinlit die cuts. I added more texture from a bit of Linen Thread tied on the “amazing” and by stapling the “You” to the crumb cake panel.

Be sure to check back for more creations to build your anticipation for this great new set!

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
