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.

  First is a card that reminds you of  'candy corn'.

  Black & White with a 'pop' of color can be so striking!  The circles are from the Layering circles dies; the stitched background is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies.  She added a band of glitter paper on the hat – from the 2022-24 In Color 6" Glimmer paper.

  And lastly today is another Black & White with a pop of color – this time with Real Red.

• Bewitching Teepee Fun Fold card!

  September 12, 2022

  I've shared lots of amazing projects Annette made with the Bewitching bundle here . She was our Artist of the Month in August as part of my Flowerbug's Team.  Each month we have a featured artist that showcases a stamp set or bundle.  She used the Bewitching bundle seen here. 

  Today is a fun fold card called a Teepee card.  It looks difficult to make but it's sure not!  In fact her card inspired me to make one myself.  You can see the video here.  

  She used the Tea Boutique designer paper and the Stylish Shapes & Layering Circles dies for the circles.

  Creating this unique fun fold card starts with three squares measuring 4".  You'll score each one in half on the diagonal.  The designer paper is two 3 3/4" squares that you cut in half diagonally.  Watch the video here or scroll down below to see how it's done.
