3 Fun Projects & Video with the Circle Celebration stamp set

March 22, 2021

I tried not to order the Circle Celebration stamp set but it kept calling out 'Order me!' So I caved….and am so glad I did! The images seem like they're almost 'retro' style which I love. I do enjoy creating my own stamped background and these are perfect for that.

Today I'm focusing on the cards on the right. I made them with the Bokeh technique. It's so fun and almost 3D in appearance.

You start out with a sponged background. I used our new Blending Brushes that are awesome! They are currently out of stocks but should be back at the end of March.

Randomly sponge ink colors onto our Basic White CS. Choose colors that somewhat coordinate if possible. this can be difficult for some who struggle with color combos. I choose colors that when mixed do not make mud. How do I know which colors don't mix? Trial and error of course! Here I used Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape. Aren't these colors gorgeous together?!!!

*Another combo I might pick are yellows, oranges & reds. Or greens & blues!

Save

Once you're done you add sponged circles using White Craft ink. I made my own stencils by punching circles out of card stock. I share tips on using and re-inking our White Craft ink in the video below.

The greeting is from the Best Year stamp set in the Annual Catalog and the butterflies AND white dotted die-cut 'holes' are from the new Brilliant Wings bundle seen here.

Here is the video; I hope you watch it to see how to make these fun projects!

Darling Donkey’s Birthday card

January 29, 2021
The Darling Donkey's stamp set (seen here) is one of the most popular sets in our Sale-a-Bration promotion right now. So I chose to use it for my card clubs in January. We made this cute but easy card:

Save

The colors are Pool Party, So Saffron and Black. That cute designer paper is called Flower & Field and is also from our Sale-a-Bration promotion that runs through February. See it here.

Save

Both are free with any $50 order! I love Sale-a-Bration where we can earn free items with an order.

Sale-a-Bration traditionally runs through March. But this year it's one month short because they're offering another one in July & August!! So we actually get an extra month this year!

Save

The inside is stamped with the third Sale-a-Bration choice called Approaching Perfection. See it here. It has lots of fun birthday greetings!

Save

You can watch the video for this quick card below.

Measurements:
- Pool Party card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- So Saffron 2" X 4 1/4"
- Flower & Field DSP 3" X 5 1/2"
- White die-cut 2 1/2" X 4"
I used the Balloon Bouquet punch with this DSP for a quick accent. I glued the Black & White twine down with liquid Multipurpose Glue. The donkey is colored in with Blends markers.

Striking cards with Pretty Perennials with True Love DSP

January 28, 2021

If the True Love designer paper hasn't caught your eye yet look at these cards:

Save

I paired it with the Pretty Perennials stamp and dies bundle for a recent FB Live. I used Bermuda Bay, Real Red and black. Simple Stamping at it's best! No die-cuts or punches either! Sometimes it's fun to just stamp and layer.

Save

You can see the measurements below. I try to share the printed list in my videos so they're easy to jot down.

Save

Lastly here's the stepped-up card I made using heat embossing and the Perennial Petal dies. See the Pretty Perennial bundle here.

I also used our new Blending Brushes to add color to the white flowers. Love these so much!

Save

Measurements are below and you can watch the FB Live replay video below:

I think cards featuring black and White with a pop of color are so striking and stand out. What do you think?
