A fun way to add color to the Happy Place stamp with video tutorial

I shared how to add color to the large ‘Happy’ from the Happy Place stamp set on last week’s Live video. What do you think?

We made this cute card at my September card clubs. The colors include Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral & White. You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned inking on the Happy image. I used inks – Lost Lagoon for the water and Calypso Coral for the sky. For this sample I used large ink pads. But for my Clubs we used smaller ink spots. It was a lot easier this way!

You might also wonder where I got the rectangle Perennial Postage die shape. I had to die-cut a larger rectangle twice to get this size. It was pretty easy and I share how in the video below.

We textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Wave 3D embossing folder and the curvy leaf dies are from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I love them! The inside greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.

It’s an easy fold that shows off the inside of the card and the designer paper we added. This DSP is the Subtles 6″ designer paper which has some great patterns.

I really enjoyed playing with this fun stamp set. I’ll share another project from the video tomorrow. See the Happy Place set here.

  For this card I colored the white berries on the DSP Red with a Blends marker.  You can change the color of these berries so easily! They could be pink for a birthday card or red for Christmas. 

  The greeting is from the Framed & Festive stamp set seen here; available through early January or while supplies last.

  I love this card layout because of it's simplicity.  It has a textured layer, a layered piece of designer paper, ribbon and a punched greeting.  Everything most of us want to add to our cards.  Here are the measurements, in the photo below.

  The greeting punch is the Decorative Circle punch from the Annual Catalog. 

  This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here.

• Framed Florets card in blues; an easy layout idea

  November 8, 2022

  ---

  And the blog issues continue….. If you're looking at this from a phone or tablet you may not see any photos.  But as of yesterday they did show up on a computer.  I hope Typepad figures this out soon!  

  This is one of the cards I demonstrated on last week's FB Live video. Each one features the new Fitting Florets collection of products.

  The card was inspired by the colors in the pretty floral designer paper. I chose Night of Navy, Balmy Blue & Soft Succulent with White.  The oval is from the Framed Florets dies; the flower & leaves are from the Framed Florets bundle. I colored them in with Blends markers.  

  The greeting images are so pretty; I love the mixed font.

  In the video below, I shared three cards featuring the Framed Florets bundle and the Fitting Florets DSP seen here.  This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here.
