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.

  • Another sweet card with Wildflower Birthday & Labeled with Love

    Here's one more card featuring the beautiful Wildflower Birthday specialty DSP. 

    Labeled with Love option 2 Save

    I changed up just a few things from the card I shared yesterday to make a totally new fun fold card.  Here I used Soft Sea Foam as my card base with Pretty in Pink and Blueberry Bushel accents.  

    I used the Labeled with Love stamp set & coordinating punch.  Unfortunately this stamp set just sold out; it was on the Last Chance/retired list. 

    Here's what it looks like opened.

    Measurements:

    • White inside 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP – left panel 1 7/8" X 5 1/4", cakes panel 3" X 2 3/8"

    And here's the video below. Besides this card I created another similar card with just a few adjustments to the original.

  • Easy Wildflower Birthday fun fold with free project sheet & video tutorial

    I'm excited to share this card with you today.

    It's a type of Z-fold but different than I've seen before.  With two quick score lines you have an easy & unique card fold! I love how this card gives you three ways to show off our coordinating DSP.  

    I featured the Wildflower Birthday specialty designer series paper on these pretty cards.  It's filled with floral & birthday prints with splashes of gold foil.  It also comes with 2 sheets of die-cut elements as shown below which allows for super quick creating.  See it here.

    I still have a few of my pre-cut kits to go available with this pretty DSP or the PDF tutorial. See it here.
