On last week's Live video I featured the Fragrant Forest stamp set. Trees are one of my 'go to' choices for card making; I like most botanical images though. I find them comforting and versatile and this large background stamp is truly beautiful.

I kept my colors to White & Pretty Peacock. If you ever struggle with color combos try just one with White or Vanilla; they're usually quite beautiful. 

Dies used here include the Countryside Corner dies (2023-24 annual catalog) & Forever Forest dies (2023 Holiday catalog) for the die-cut mountains on the bottom of the card . The greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies; a definite must have! See the Fragrant Forest stamp set here. 

Here's the inside view:

You might wonder just how I achieved the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the card. Watch the video here. 

I cut my stamp apart!

Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile!  And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp.  Try it!

  • Floating Panel card with video – so cool but incredibly easy!

    On a recent FB Live class we made Floating Panel cards like this one made with the Best Day stamp set from the January-April catalog. Click here to see the cute Best Day stamp set.

    See how the card front is folded in half but the panel is straight?  There's a neat, easy way to do that by adding two little pieces of card stock.  Each strip is folded in half and positioned on both the top panel and the card base.  See the other photo below to understand it.  Or watch the video here.

    I also used the Dandy Designs designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  Sadly that is now over; it ended February 28th.

    My colors on the card above are Black, Mango Melody & Polished Pink.  I used Blends markers to color the cat image.  I added Wink of Stella for some shimmer as well.  

    Floating Panel measurements:

    • card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
    • DSP 2 pieces at 2" X 5 1/4"
    • White scalloped (Scalloped Contours die) die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
    • CS layer is 2 5/8" X 3 7/8"
    • two strips 1/2" X 1 3/4" for floating mechanism 

    I used the Best Day stamp set here; it's adorable with lots of birthday images and greetings.  It's in the Jan-June catalog and you can see it here.

    You can see how the two folded strips are added to the front center fold below:

    I stamped the inside with images from the Best Day stamp set, adding some colored rhinestones to help the card stay open and in place.  Honestly a die-cut or punch would work better than a rhinestone.

    Demonstrators were able to pre-order the Hello, Irresistible suite in February and I had a blast playing with these gorgeous products.  In fact I focused on them on last week's FB Live video.  You can see it here. 

    Here's one of my favorite cards I shared in the video.  It shows off the stunning Naturally Gilded specialty paper. 

    Naturally Guilded in black Save

    If you look at the background in the photo above you'll see the paper as is.  I added black on the background.  The printed designs are in silver which leaves a white background.  I knew the Silver would resist my Black Memento ink so I rubbed the ink pad directly onto the paper.  After it was nice and black I wiped off the black ink that was floating on the Silver designs.  So cool and super easy!  

    Hello Irresistible resist Save

    I used the leaves dies in the Irresistible Blooms and the greeting from the coordinating stamp set here.  I hope you watch the video; I believe it's the last project. 

    Below are some of the cards I shared in the video plus a cool bag to gift the cards in.  This is one of our Embossed Treat Bags on page 140 of the Annual Catalog. There are 10 in a pack for $7.50.  They fit standard cards and they're also food safe!

    As you can see I had a great time playing with this cool bundle.  It's fabulous and I love the Hello, Irresistible designer paper so much I'm featuring it for one of my card kits to go in March.  Stay tuned for details soon!
