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.

I created a free project sheet for you with measurements, photos, directions and a supply list with links. Click on this link to print or download it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you’re there!

  I have two more fabulous swap cards to share with you from our September Team swaps.  My Flowerbug's are so talented and creative. 

  Paula made a Waterfall card!  These are not difficult but a bit intimidating maybe….  I shared a FB Live video here on how to make one.  

  She featured the Scary Cute bundle seen here as well as the Black & White designs DSP here.  The colors are Black, White & Gorgeous Grape.

  She also used the Blossoming Happiness dies for her bottom border so she'd have a spot to add the Orchid Oasis 1/8" metallic ribbon for the pull.

  Measurements: 

  • Black card 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Basic Gray strip 5 1/2" X 1 1/4", waterfall strip is 2 1/2" X 10" scored at 5 1/4", 6", 6 3/4" & 7 1/2"
  • Gorgeous Grape squares are 2 1/2"
  • White squares are 2 1/4"
  • DSP is 4" X 5 1/4"

  Here's a peak of the last inside panel with the die-cut & spooky scene.  She stamped the greeting on the long inside strip.

  Next is a colorful Halloween card made by Sharon using this same bundle.  She also added stamps from the Best Witches & Bewitching stamp sets.

  Her colors include Rich Razzleberry, Parakeet Party, Black & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Deckle dies for her front layers and inside as well.

  My Flowerbug's Team amazes me with their incredible card swaps; each and every month their cards are super fabulous!  I shouldn't be surprised at this point!  

  Our September Team card swap featured Halloween or Fall cards and I'll be featuring them for the next several days.  

  Annette made this first card with the Best Witches stamp set seen here.  Look at her amazing coloring!

  The colors include Highland Heather, Black & a bit of Granny Apple Green on the frog.  She used Blends markers for her coloring.  Love that face!

  The designer is our Black & White Designs from the Holiday catalog.  The circles are from the Layering Circles dies. 

  It's also a fun fold 'latch' card!  Here's the inside view:

  Measurements:

  • Highland Heather: Card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Side flap is3 1/2" square
  • Black: 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" & 2" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP: 1 3/4" X 5"
  • White: front is 2 1/2" X 3", inside is 4" X 5 1/4"

  In the photo below you can see how the right panel is 'latched' with the layered circle greeting to keep it closed.

  Next is a super cute card made by Candace with the Bewitching punch bundle seen here.  Unfortunately the punch is unavailable right now but it will be back!  I just love her playful circles layout! 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  She used Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Black & Granny Apple Green.  She cut off the front flap with the Border Basics dies and added a strip of Gorgeous Grape with the same die-cut edge.  

  The way she added the boots to be under the hat with this fold is genius!

  Measurements:

  • Grape card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" plus a 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip for the zigzag die-cut border 
  • White is 5 1/4" X 7" scored at 4 1/8"
  • Circles are all die-cuts from the Stylish Shapes dies!

  I shared this cute & easy box on Tuesday's FB Live.  It's quite simple to make and fits a bunch of treats too!  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I decided to feature this month's Paper Pumpkin kit I just received.  It's called Spooky Treats.  I used the ghost and greeting images from the stamp set plus the greeting element and the bats paper from the kit.  I chose the Black & White designs paper for the designer paper.

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  The finished box measures 3" X 5" in size.

  Here are the measurements: 

  • Box card stock 7” X 9” – Score at 1” on all sides.
  • Place CS with long side at the top, score at 4” & 5”
  • DSP – sides 2 at ¾” X 2 ¾”, front & back 2 at ¾” X 4 ¾”. Top is 2 ¾” X 4 ¾”

  For the second box I chose to use Gorgeous Grape for my box instead of Pumpkin Pie.  The designer paper is also the Black & White designs.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

   

  This Spooky Treats Paper Pumpkin kit is still available while supplies last!  You can choose between the full kit here for $20.50 or the refill here (without the stamp set & ink) for $11.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  You have a few choices when purchasing Paper Pumpkin.  You can subscribe to get one kit each month here.  Or purchase a pre-paid subscription here.  You can choose from a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription.
