A gorgeous Handcrafted Ornaments card with video & free project sheet!


   Look at this beautiful card made with the Handcrafted Elements dies!

These dies are seen in our 2023 Holiday catalog or online here.  There are two dies in the set that create that pretty, layered ornament.  

I chose to use Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis along with the Brushed Gold cards. For the stamped bough image under the banner, I used Wild Wheat ink, stamped off once.  It's surprisingly close to gold! 

This card is one we made at my October Card Clubs; they could choose their favorite greeting and also the color of bow on the ornament.  

I used the Distressed Tile 3d embossing folder seen here.

Yesterday I shared a pretty card featuring two of the same products seen in this card. Click here to see it. The Christmas Classics stamp set and the Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

Look at the stunning golden shine on this card! 

I shared a second card made with the other half of the Brushed Gold card base in the video here.  I hope you watch it! I will share the details on that card tomorrow.

  • Freestyle Creativity with ephemera & leftovers!


    Have you ever gathered some of your extra die-cuts and layers and just played?  We did this at my Team Meeting this weekend and they loved it!  

    I put out lots of extra die-cuts and layers plus the Fully Flowering and Greetings for All ephemera plus the Stripes & Florals cards and envelopes and they had fun making their style of cards.  These are mine: 

    Here are each of them below.  The left two include some ephemera and the right two feature dies and greetings I had on hand. 

    I found that layering dies and ephemera onto another layer like the white die-cut above or the Lemon Lolly & Black DSP layers below helps anchor them. 

     

    The colors in the Stripes & Florals cards and envelopes are Balmy Blue & Bubble Bath.  Nice soft colors you can accent easily.

    See these pretty cards & envelopes here.  

    The cards above & below feature a bunch of dies I had on hand. Above includes Basic Beige and Gold. 

    The card below includes Basic Gray & Pretty Peacock. 

     

    I hope you're encouraged to try making cards using your leftovers.

  • 3 new kits by Stampin’ Up! now available in the store


    Stampin' Up! released 3 new kits in their substantial Kit Collection this month.  Two are cards and one is a beautiful bouquet of paper flowers.  

    You can find each of these kits and many more on this link.  Even though I am an experienced crafter I love working with kits.  It's a lovely break from thinking and planning.  But if I want to be creative I can still jazz up the kits. 

    My favorite is the Paper Bouquet kit.  I ordered two – one for my daughter for Mother's Day.  What a perfect gift!
