2 cute cards with the Pampered Pets bundle


I featured the Playful Pets bundle when I made these two cards at Tuesday's Facebook Live this week.  This suite is absolutely adorable!  

Here's a close up of the first card.  The texture of the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder is so neat.  It's subtle but still quite noticeable with a unique texture. 

This card shows just a peak of the cute Playful Pets designer series paper between the textured layers. 

See the paw prints on the bottom right?  That is a die in the Pets dies.  I placed a scrap of Black CS behind it to show it off.  You can see the entire Playful Pets suite here. 

The dog is cut from the Playful Pets DSP; the Pet dies match some of the images in the paper!   I added a bit of the Playful Pets trim for a collar and a bone from the Pet Trinkets.  Below are the measurements for this card:

  • Real Red 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 1” X 5 ½”, 2 ¼” X 5 ½” textured pieces
  • 1 ¼” X 5 ½” Designer Series Paper

Other products used: Tasteful Textile folder, Stitched Shapes and Layering Circles dies

Below are both cards I made in the FB Live video.  Click here to see it.

The second card is a unique fold where the Black piece is the full back of the card and the Real Red is scored for the card opening. It's a fun and unique card that works well with our Designer paper.  Whether you use 6 X 6" or 12 X 12" paper it all works without much waste when cutting.

Measurements:

  • Black 5 ½” X 4 1/4”
  • Real Red 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”,
  • Designer Series Paper 5 ½” X 3”
  • Soft Suede 1" X 4 1/4"
  • White strip is 3/4" X 3 1/2"

  • Stitched So Sweetly & Positive Thoughts


    Yesterday I shared one version of this card and here is the other.  I had extra background pieces stamped so I tried something else.

    I used the same dies; but added the So Sentimental stamp set for the greeting above.  

    And here is the first version:  Which do you prefer?  This (above) or that (below)? 

    Here is the new So Sentimental bundle; my favorite bundle in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

  • Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!


    This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away!  Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards. 

    I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of. 

    This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration. 

    I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

    I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.

  • Two ‘WOW’ technique cards with video


    This week's Facebook Live video featured two 'over the top' technique cards.  I uploaded it on YouTube so everyone could see it whether you're on Facebook or not. (scroll down to see the video) 

    If you are on FB be sure to follow my page so you catch each week's video on Tuesday's at 11 am CT. Here's the link to my page: www.facebook.com/flowerbugsinkspot 

    The left card is a shaker card; they're very special and interactive. And not hard at all! Using Window sheets and our Foam Adhesive strips sure make it easy! I used the following products: (click on each one)

    The card on the right is stitched with our metallic thread; basically like string art.  If you like to cross stitch you will like this fun technique.  I timed it and it took me about 8 minutes to finish one heart.


    The Heart Doilies make it super simple.  I used these products on this card:

    The greeting on the Valentine's card is from the Heart to Heart stamp set.  I chose to order this one because it's not just for Valentine's Day but it does includes the greeting.  That makes it very versatile to me.
