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! 

FRIENDLY HELLO BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

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

Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

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.  

Jan Friendly Hello Ginny Save

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!  

Friendly Hello & Tropical Layers Save

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!

  • Exciting new Online Exclusive products are here! Irresistible Blooms shaker card with video tutorial

    Yesterday they released 12 new items in the Online Exclusives store.  These items are not in any printed catalog.

    Have you looked at them yet? Click here or on the photo below to see them online.

    I shared this fun shaker card on last week's FB Live video. It features one of the new Online Exclusive bundles called Irresistible Blooms.  

    Hello Irresistible shaker Save

    I chose Fresh Freesia with Navy & Daffodil Delight as my colors.  I'm so ready for spring and yellow & purple are fresh, happy colors. 

    I used the circle die in this new bundle to cut a window in my Fresh Freesia front layer and stamped the spatter image all over the front.  Then I adhered my window sheet behind the opening. 

    Next I added Foam Adhesive strips around the opening, in the back. This keeps the shaker elements in the viewing window and contained. Peel off the backing on the foam strips and add your stamped layer over it.  

    Hello Irresistible shaker .. Save

    *Tips: I like to peel off the backing before I add the shaker pieces.  This prevents movement that can cause the shaker pieces to jump.  I also like to cut my inside layer just a bit smaller so I can center it on this piece, upside down.  

    I stamped the flower & leave and die-cut them with the coordinating dies from the Irresistible Blooms bundle.  See it here.

  • Floating Panel card with video – so cool but incredibly easy!

    On a recent FB Live class we made Floating Panel cards like this one made with the Best Day stamp set from the January-April catalog. Click here to see the cute Best Day stamp set.

    See how the card front is folded in half but the panel is straight?  There's a neat, easy way to do that by adding two little pieces of card stock.  Each strip is folded in half and positioned on both the top panel and the card base.  See the other photo below to understand it.  Or watch the video here. 

    Best Day Floating Save

    I also used the Dandy Designs designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  Sadly that is now over; it ended February 28th.

    My colors on the card above are Black, Mango Melody & Polished Pink.  I used Blends markers to color the cat image.  I added Wink of Stella for some shimmer as well.  

    Floating Panel measurements:

    • card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • DSP 2 pieces at 2" X 5 1/4"
    • White scalloped (Scalloped Contours die) die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
    • CS layer is 2 5/8" X 3 7/8"
    • two strips 1/2" X 1 3/4" for floating mechanism 

    I used the Best Day stamp set here; it's adorable with lots of birthday images and greetings.  It's in the Jan-June catalog and you can see it here.

    You can see how the two folded strips are added to the front center fold below:

    I stamped the inside with images from the Best Day stamp set, adding some colored rhinestones to help the card stay open and in place.  Honestly a die-cut or punch would work better than a rhinestone.

    Here's a little preview of most of the new items! *Use the arrows to see them all. 

    Demonstrators were able to pre-order the Hello, Irresistible suite in February and I had a blast playing with these gorgeous products.  In fact I focused on them on last week's FB Live video.  You can see it here. 

    Here's one of my favorite cards I shared in the video.  It shows off the stunning Naturally Gilded specialty paper. 

    Naturally Guilded in black Save

    If you look at the background in the photo above you'll see the paper as is.  I added black on the background.  The printed designs are in silver which leaves a white background.  I knew the Silver would resist my Black Memento ink so I rubbed the ink pad directly onto the paper.  After it was nice and black I wiped off the black ink that was floating on the Silver designs.  So cool and super easy!  

    Hello Irresistible resist Save

    I used the leaves dies in the Irresistible Blooms and the greeting from the coordinating stamp set here.  I hope you watch the video; I believe it's the last project. 

    Below are some of the cards I shared in the video plus a cool bag to gift the cards in.  This is one of our Embossed Treat Bags on page 140 of the Annual Catalog. There are 10 in a pack for $7.50.  They fit standard cards and they're also food safe!
