2 ways to add color to a solid image with video & free project sheet


Today's project is one we made at my March card clubs; it features the beautiful Quiet Reflection stamp set. 

This set is returning in the 2024 Annual Catalog and I'm super glad!  It's wonderful for both sympathy or thinking of you cards. And the best part is it's super easy to create with.  See the Quiet Reflection set here. 

My colors include Shaded Spruce & Starry Sky (retiring In Color). I used a few dies also – Thoughtful Expressions (retired and sold out now) and Garden Meadows dies seen here (for the arch). 

Do you know how I achieved the two-toned image of green trees with blue water?  It's so simple!  

How it's done: I placed my stamp set with the rubber face up. I inked up one half with Starry Sky ink (tapping the rubber with the ink pad) and then the other half with Shaded Spruce.  The nice thing about doing this technique with this particular stamp image is that when you place your greeting strip across the image it covers up any white space left un-inked.  

I added a few of the Gold Adhesive-backed Dragonflies & Birds seen here.  I love these so much!  They're super thin and don't add any bulk to your projects. 

In the video posted here on YouTube you can see how I made this card and another with an entirely different way to achieve a 2-toned image.

  • Two February Card kits; first is the serenely beautiful Sand & Sea


    Here are the beautiful set of cards featuring the Sand & Sea suite for my February cards kit to go. 


    Each month I create a unique cards kit around a group of current Stampin' Up! products.  You receive around $20 in products and it costs just $28 with the pre-cut kit and PDF tutorial!  

    Besides the pre-cut supplies for 10 cards (including the punched and die-cut pieces) you'll receive the following:

    • 1/2 pkg of Sand & Sea designer paper (6" X 12")
    • Blushing Bride & White twine
    • a share of new Opal round gems
    • a share of adhesive die-cut shells
    • the PDF tutorial which includes measurements, supplies, photos and step by step directions. 

    **This kit does not include stamped images.  I used the Friends are like Seashells stamp set; you could use what you have or add it on to your kit. If you want either the stamp set or the bundle you can add them to your kit at an extra 10% discount! And you get a Sale-a-Bration choice then too!

    *You'll also need your own ink. I used the following colors: Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand, Misty Moonlight & Pear Pizzazz.  

    Order here to receive a kit by February 20th.  Or choose the PDF tutorial only here. 

    *The kits should be mailed out at the end of February via Priority mail; barring any back-ordered items. 

    *The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately upon payment. 


    Add my second kit in February and save on shipping!  I'll post details tomorrow but here's a peak both together!

  • Berry Delightful Fun Fold cards with video


    Here are the cards we made at my January Card Clubs featuring the Berry Delightful bundle in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  Everyone loved how easy this fold is!  

     

    I gave them the choice of either blueberry or raspberry cards; this stamp set and designer paper work beautifully with both!  It also pairs fabulously with the Sweet Strawberry bundle too! 

    I used Rich Razzleberry & Pacific Point card stock and ink on these cards; plus some Garden Green ink.  

    Check it out here on the Sale-a-Bration choices; the Designer paper and stamp set are FREE with a $100 order while supplies last. 

    And remember that those who order this bundle from me get a free 10 cards pre-cut kit and PDF tutorial!!  I have a few left. 

    And it uses your card stock efficiently too! Measurements are below. 

         

    See that gorgeous stitching around the inside layer?  That's the new Stitched with Whimsy dies. They stitch but don't cut.  There are 6 assorted sizes in this set.  You can see it here.  

    Measurements:

    • Main card 4 1/4" X 7 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
      Designer paper 1 3/4" X 4"
      White 2 1/2" X 3 1/4" for front, 4" X 5 1/4" inside front layer 2 3/4" X 3 1/2"

    You can catch my tips on stamping these 2-step images and the fun fold design below in my video.
