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.

  • See them all! Two different versions of this fun fold card with gift card option

    Monday night we made these neat fun fold cards on FB Live. If you're not following me on Facebook you can do so here.  I do 6 Facebook lives a month!  

    4 square Side flap card FB Live Save

    The top two cards feature the Tidings & Trimmings bundle & the Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP. Both are in a suite seen in the annual catalog on pages 88-89 or here. 

    The bottom two cards feature the new Eden's Garden stamp set & the Ever Eden specialty designer paper.  See them both here. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" plus 1" X 4" strip for embossed layer. *To cut the front flap, cut at the 4 1/4" point to the score line. 
    • Cherry Cobbler card stock 4" square, plus 3/4" X 5" strip
    • DSP 1 7/8" squares X 4 (can be 1 3/4" to leave a space between like the card on the lower left)
    • White inside layer 3 1/2" square

    Do you see the difference in the two cards below?  Note the space between the designer paper squares on the left card. The DSP squares on the left are 1 3/4" in size.  The DSP on the right card are 1 7/8" in size so they have no space in between. 

    *If you love this stamp set & Designer Paper you should get it this month.  I'm giving away a free cards kit with online orders this month plus a PDF tutorial with 22 projects! See details below.

    Share your version of this card in my FB group here by November 21st to get in the drawing for a door prize! 

    See how the card is cut partway?  The flap on the right is adhered down. But, you can leave it partially open enough to add a gift card in the pocket!

    The two hats are made with our Layering Circle dies and Whimsy & Wonder specialty DSP. I used the largest scalloped die and the largest smooth die in the set.  To get the sides of the greeting strips I used the round end of a punch. *tip shared in the video here.  They are 1/2" and 3/4" in width. 

    Below is the template for the box; please watch the video below to see how it's put together.
