3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!


Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!  

This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello.  I love both the stamps and the DSP.  The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching! 

Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

Details:

  • The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die. 
  • That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.  
  • The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set. 

Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.  

She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece.  She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.  

Lastly today is another card I made for a swap.  I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso.  I've always loved these colors together.  I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!  

I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner.  I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.  

Thanks so much for stopping in to see my projects today!  If you want to get this pretty pack of Designer Paper & the Friendly Hello stamp set click here to see it.  It's free with any $100 purchase right now!

  • How to get more use of your Fragrant Forest stamp; cut it up!


    I shared this pretty card in last week's Live video. I featured the Fragrant Forest background stamp set seen here in all 3 projects. 

    Today's card also features the Beary Cute stamp set & punch. It was available in a bundle but unfortunately the punch has sold out now.  But the stamp set is still available. 

    I used Night of Navy with Mossy Meadow here. I stamped the entire White layer with the background stamp (watch the video with tips on getting even coverage with a background stamp) then cut the circle using the new Deckled Circle dies. I added it to a larger Navy Deckled circle die-cut which covered up the die-cut line from the first circle cut. 

    The bears were stamped in Balmy Blue ink but in hindsight I'd like them in a dark gray ink on White.  The lower strip for the greeting is torn. 

    I created a free project sheet for this card; click on this link to see it. Download Fragrant Forest & Beary Cute card  *subscribe to my blog so you don't miss a thing and can access all of my project sheets in one place! 

    Are you wondering how I achieved the inside trees image without inking the entire stamp? Here's how!

    I was trying to mask the stamp but it has lots of little pine needles between the tree layers.  It wasn't working so I thought, 'why aren't I trimming the stamp?'.  I have no problem doing it; it just isn't my first thought.  It works like a gem and makes it so much easier to use this pretty stamp set!

    Do you cut your stamps apart? I tend to do it with images that have a greeting with it. Or if I like part of a greeting and want to use it separately. Honestly they fit right back together when put onto your block.  It just makes sense!  I encourage you to try it.
