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. 

Quiet Reflection March club Save

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.

  • Origami card fold with Flowers for Every Season with video

    Here's another card I made on FB live last week using the pretty Flowers for Every Season designer paper.  It's an origami fold that creates a perfect place for your stamped image in the center.

    It starts out with a 4 1/4" piece of designer series paper and you place it on a score board on the diagonal so the points are at 3" on the top and the left.  You can do this with a paper cutter too.  See here or watch the video below:

    Then you score at 1" and 1 1/2".  Rotate it and do this on all sides.  Fold as shown.

    The stamped White layer inside is 2 7/8" square.
