A beautiful scene with the ‘Here’s to You’ kit; a Paper Pumpkin alternate idea


The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene.  It's one of my favorite techniques! 

One of the stencils has clouds in it.  I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS. 

Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge.  Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink.  I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!  

The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.

  • Great sketch to create fast cards with Woven Textures


    On last week's video I shared two more projects made with the Textured Notes bundle which is included in the entire Botanical Textures suite seen here.  

    This lovely card features Pecan Pie with Early Espresso. I stamped directly onto the designer paper – a soft linen sheet included in the Woven Textures DSP seen here.  

    I die-cut the three rectangles with the new Textured Notes dies which is included in the Textured Notes bundle seen here.  I cannot stop using this bundle!!

    This layout was inspired by this sketch.   

    I love using sketches for my inspiration!  Think of them as a starting point.  Noticed I added a greeting layer & linen thread. 

    Did you catch the texture on the diagonal Early Espresso strip?  That's the new Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here.  I tell you this suite is incredible!  I love every single thing in it!

    Below is the inside view.  Like I said yesterday these leaf stamps are wonderful to play with. Easy, beautiful cards.

  • I just love this project I'm sharing today!  Have you ever made a 'Bendy card'?  

    This card features the beautiful Textured Notes stamp set seen here.  I just love this stamp set!  The leaves are so easy to create with.  And the black & white DSP in the back is called Botanical Textures seen here.  

    This stamp set is in a bundle with the wonderful Textured Notes dies.  See the bundle here.  

    This Bendy card is super simple to make.  The back is scored in the center plus the center white and the lower black have scored tabs on the side that allows the entire card to bend.  Be sure to check out the video & free project sheet below. 

    Below is one of the ways I stamped the back. Watch the video below to see another version.
