3 cards with my ‘Life is Beautiful’ MDA stamp set!

You may have spied my stamp set in a previous post, but I haven't shared much yet!  You can be sure I will be posting quite a few projects with it.

If you didn't know, it's a stamp set I helped create as a perk of achieving a Million Dollars in sales in my career with Stampin' Up!  It's so cool to have my name posted under the stamp set in the upcoming 2020 August – December Stampin' Up! catalog! 

I shared three technique cards using the Life is Beautiful stamp set on FB live last week.   I did upload it to YouTube so everyone can watch. *see below

The top left card is created by stamping and heat embossing the leaves with White embossing powder.  Then coloring over with Blends alcohol markers.  Such a cool effect and actually fun to color too.  The dark card stock covers most mistakes if you go off the image a bit.

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Mango Melody.  The pretty label tags are die-cuts from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here. 

I wanted to have a play with a rainbow style card using the distinktive dots in the set.

I used Gorgeous Grape, Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay and Pacific Point here.  The greeting is from another MDA set called Ridiculously Awesome. 

Next is a simple baby wipe technique.

I stamped the tree twice to create a wider trunk and more branches.  The colors here are Coastal Cabana, Soft Suede with Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock dots.

  • Yay! My New Catalog Launch Party is tomorrow!

    With each new catalog I host an open house for my local customers.  I love prepping for these because it gets my display boards done.  The best part is that I get to see people I don't get see regularly.  It's a joy to watch friends meet up and visit while browsing the new catalog. I also truly enjoy planning my menu and treating them to lots of yummy food.

  • Beautiful Plaid card featuring the Grow with Love bundle

    I shared this pretty card on a recent video.  I made it for our Team swap which had a plaid theme. 

    Grow with Love card Save

    It features the Grow with Love bundle seen here.  My colors include Basic Beige, Old Olive and Lost Lagoon – taken from the pretty Timeless Plaid layer. 

    The basil and stamped frame are all done with the Grow with Love dies.  The greeting is from the Mixed Label dies. I did sponge the edges and the leaves with Lost Lagoon ink.  The herb images in this set are so pretty and have Stampin' Up!'s distinktive style which shows off multiple hues with one inking.  The coordinating dies cut off the herb names; a great option if you do not want to include them.  

    GROW WITH LOVE BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The pretty embossing folder is called Dashing Designs and can be seen here. I'm so sad it's retiring!  This textured piece is made from our 2-toned Olive 12 X 12" card stock. When embossing this white core paper the texture reveals the white core just enough to enhance the texture.  I could have sanded it to reveal even more texture but I did not.
