SU! Retiring Stamps: Garden Party, Think Happy and Four Frames

Hello,
OK, I'm going to pick a few cards using stamps that I'm going to miss from the retirement list to share with you today. Things seem to be selling r-e-a-l-l-y fast (as yesterday's post showed!) so just a gentle reminder that if you want something a lot, please place your order soon ;-)
So, first pick from me for today will be Garden Party, here are a few examples...
 This card uses both Garden Party and another stamp set that is leaving us that I'll miss a lot which is Think Happy...
 and more Think Happy clouds, this card also uses Celebrate Today and has been a really popular pick on Pinterest ;-)
This also uses the hostess only set "Lifes Adventure" which is available for FREE, while stocks last, on any orders over £150!
 and finally for today Four Frames, I like this set for labelling things; like this Limoncello and Sloe Gin I made ;-) 
 So, that's today's favourites for you, what are you sad to see go?
Please pop over to my shop for some last minute bargains and remember to use the hostess code for orders under £150 and receive a little gift from me too.

Garden Party Card with Punched Flower Cups Card plus Top Tips in this weeks TMT Video .

Hello,
I have a card to share with you today and of course a Two Minute(ish) Tuesday Video too! Please take a look at today's video for my top tips on how to make this card including stamping the leaves in a straight line easily and how I make the flowers cup for the pom poms to sit inside!
This card is actually another class card from the last stamp-a-stack class. I have just had so much to share with you recently that I am still blogging cards from a fortnight ago! I love that!
This card uses the Garden Party stamp set (the green sprig) and some Itty Bitty Punched flowers with these pom pom centres. See what you think...
 Itty bitty punched flowers in Strawberry Slush and Marina Mist card
 This sentiment is stamped in Strawberry Slush and actually comes from the set From the Herd ;-)
 And a side view. I kept this card quite simple to ensure the flowers were the star of the show. I hope you like it too?
OK, so here are my Top Tips for this card including making these pretty, 3d flowers. 

Well, I hope you enjoyed today's video? 
Watch this space later this week for more 3d flowers - but totally different ones to these!
Thanks for stopping buy today,

Garden Party, Think Happy and Watercolour Thank-You stamps by Stampin' Up! all on one card!

***EDITED TO SAY I HAVE DONE A LITTLE TUTORIAL HERE FOR THE CLOUDS FROM THINK HAPPY :-)***
Hello there,
I have another class today and I wanted to share with you this card which is just one of those we will be making later. We used a selection of stamp sets for this card hence the rather long title today ;-) but I think they work wonderfully together creating a fun and happy looking card, what do you think?
 I used a basic colour combo of Strawberry Slush with Soft Sky with the highlighting colours being the new In Colour Lost Lagoon; used for the outer rim of the cloud and the flowers leaves are stamped in Wild Wasabi. I *heart* this Strawberry thick bakers twine too!
Cloud TOP TIP: stamp the outer cloud first then line up the SAMJ and fill in with the swirls, there's less chance of pressing too hard and spoiling your cloud/card with excess ink from the centre of the outline stamp. I can do a photo tutorial if you need? Let me know :-)
 These super sweet flowers are from the lovely Garden Party stamp set and I inked them using markers in Strawberry Slush and Wild Wasabi which I think is a really bright modern looking green.
 and the lovely Watercolour Thank-You, another font that would make a fabulous Happy Birthday (Pretty please SU!) ;-) this was again done in Strawberry Slush.
and the whole card again to finish today!
OK, that's all from me for now, I must dash and get ready for my ladies today!
Thanks for looking today and if you have any questions please do ask away in the comments here :-)
