2 Techniques with video; Starburst & Masking!

August 10, 2020

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.

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.

Save

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.

Which do you prefer? Yellow or pink?

Seashells fun fold card; wow!

February 18, 2021
Sharon created this gorgeous 'dutch door' fun-fold card for our February Team swap.

Save

I think stamping on the die-cut shell before embossing is the neatest idea! She used the Friends are Like Seashells bundle with the Seashells 3D embossing folder.

Her colors are Blushing Bride with Gray Granite and our new Pearlescent Paper. This specialty paper is absolutely stunning! See it here.

Save

That great texture on the back layer is made with the Painted Texture embossing folder seen here.

Measurements:
- Gray Granite 8 1/2" X 5 1/4" and trim off 2 3/4" X 4 1/4" on the upper left front. Front is 4" X 2 3/4"
- Pearlescent paper is also 4" X 2 3/4"
- Blushing Bride 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" inside, 2 7/8" X 4 1/8" front
- Vanilla inside is 2 3/4" X 4"

Playful & unique cards with Oh So Ombre’ Designer paper!

February 17, 2021

Do you have the fabulous Oh So Ombre' Designer Series Paper yet? If not here are three creative reasons you need it!

Save

Aren't they fun! I really wanted to show you how amazing this designer paper is so I played and came up with these neat card ideas. First is a starburst card in two colors; Bermuda Bay and Blackberry Bliss.

I used the fabulous Stitched Star dies and the Oval Occasions stamp set. Watch the video below to see just how easy it is to make one of these gorgeous cards.

Save

Next I played with the Dandy Wishes dies (2021 Spring Catalog) to create these 'Retro' style cards. I first die-cut a bunch of 'windows' in the White panel. Then added punched circles of the Oh So Ombre DSP behind them. Next I textured the entire thing with an embossing folder.

Save

For the last card I wanted to use those retro style die-cuts so I created this Ombre panel card. The stamp set is from Field of Flowers.

Save

Thanks for stopping in today; I hope you like these unique cards. If you do and want to get your own package of Oh So Ombre' Designer Paper you can get it free with a $50 purchase. click here to order.
