2 Techniques with video; Starburst & Masking!

I made these technique cards on a Facebook Live in July and I know not everyone is on Facebook.  So I'm posting it here for you too. I offer a FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT and one the 2nd & 4th Monday evenings at 7:30 pm CT all using current Stampin' Up! products.  Join me here. 

I had a request to teach the Starburst technique and came up with this easy version. 

July 21 Starburst technique Save

I used the unique and colorful Artistry Blooms designer paper from the Annual Catalog along with the Tasteful Touches stamp set and Artistry Blooms adhesive backed sequins.  The link to the videos is below but here are the basics: 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • White CS 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Artistry Blooms DSP – cut 5 strips measuring 1 1/2" X 5" and then cut these in half on the diagonal.  Now mix and match them to the 4" X 5 1/4" piece leaving a tiny bit of space between them.

I added greetings and die-cuts from the Tasteful Touches bundle seen here. 

Here are the other cards I made using the masking technique and the Tasteful Touches stamp set.

  • My ‘5 at a time’ card templates are addicting!

    I'm so excite to share this fun & unique idea!  I created two templates that help you make 5 cards at a time.  It's addicting & you'll be looking at your stamps in a whole new way!  

    I shared this on last week's Facebook Live and it was a hit!  It's so fun to do.

    For these cards I used the Merry Snowflakes stamp set (seen here) & Pool Party, Bermuda Bay & Highland Heather inks. The card stock is White, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana. If you follow me you know these are some of my favorite colors! They're perfect for snowflakes.

    Below are the templates.  Remember these are 8 1/2" X 11" to start with.  For these cards I stamped before I cut but you can certainly cut your pieces first if you'd like to.

    As you can see these templates have very little waste. 

    Before I stamped I scored on the 4 3/4" and 3 1/2" lines leaving the piece intact. You could also draw a light pencil mark so you know where to stamp. 

    And here is how the White card stock is stamped. (I forgot to take a photo before I cut and layered them.)

    Can you see that the images concentrate on two sides of each piece leaving one corner free & clear? Basically you're stamping down the middle and on each of the lines. This keeps the cards from being too busy.

    I added a few iridescent Wonderful snowflakes (seen here) to some of them; I cannot get enough of these!  They're such a great size & value – you get 24 for $6. 

    I hope you watch the video below to see the tips & tricks on using these templates.

    Below is the video so you can see how it's done.
