A set of Autumn ‘5 at a time’ cards; with video and free project sheet

Look at these beautiful cards; all made by stamping one sheet of Vanilla card stock and cutting it into 5 pieces!

Save

Just like the cards I shared yesterday, they’re stamped with the Tile Garden stamp set seen here. I wanted to create these cards in fall colors instead of the summery colors I shared yesterday.

Here I used Cajun Craze, Golden Glow and Pretty Peacock with Very Vanilla. I love how they turned out!

Save

The 2 templates for both stamping and the Pretty Peacock layers are all made from a single sheet of 8 1/2″ X 11″ card stock. Use them as a cutting guide.

This first one is for the Vanilla or ‘neutral’ stamped layer.

Save

This next template is the one for the Pretty Peacock layer; under the stamped Vanilla pieces. I love how you can use your card stock so effectively!

Save

Both of these templates are included in the free project sheet I created. Click here to print or download it.

And below is the video tutorial I shared last week with an entire different set of cards! I’ll share another version tomorrow.

• Can you tell which is stamped and which is Designer paper?

  May 13, 2021

  I made these on FB live this week using the Expressions in Ink suite.  Can you tell which background is stamped and which is Designer Paper?

  My top favorite suite in the new Annual catalog is the Expressions in Ink.  See it here or on page 96-97.  It's filled with stamps & paper that mimic alcohol ink backgrounds.  Toss in the beautiful gold accents and it's stunning!

  Here's a close up of the card.  Can you tell if I stamped it or if it's designer paper?

  Yes; I did stamp it!  These images are so neat!  I can see lots of uses for both the greetings and the faux alcohol ink stamps.  See how in the video below. Mmm; I think I'll try a one sheet wonder with these…..! 

  And look at the leaves die-cuts!  I cut them from In Color Shimmer Vellum & Gold Foil paper.  The tag is from the Tailor Made Tags dies.

  Here's the FB Live replay video.  Sorry the text isn't flipped so you can read it.  FB changed their settings and the tool icon is gone.

• Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene

  May 12, 2021

  ---

  I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  I just love it!

  The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities! 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  Here's how I made it:

  1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).  
  2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
  3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS.  I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
  4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece. 
  5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side. 
  6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base. 
  7. Finish with Genial Gems.  

  You can see the beautiful Inspired Thoughts bundle here.

• Fresh In colors with new Shimmer Vellum flowers

  May 11, 2021

  ---

  I'm not sure if I'll ever get tired of playing with the new 2021-23 In colors.  They are fresh and spring-like; almost fruity. 

  For today's card I added four 1 1/4" X 4" strips of the new 6 X 6" In Color designer paper to a standard 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" white card base. It had prominent placement on my In Color display last week at my New Catalog Launch party.

  I cut out a die-cut label from the Scalloped Contours dies and stamped my greeting (from the Sweet Ice Cream set) using Soft Succulent ink.  

  The flowers are from the soon to retire (June 2021) Perennial dies.  The colored flowers are cut from the new Shimmer Vellum; available here in all 5 of our In Colors!  So pretty!!

  I colored the pearls on the flowers with the In Color Blends markers. Having these coordinating Blends markers means I can color any gem I want to match! Two of these Blends are already on back-order!  They are HOT items! 

  See all of our new 2021-23 In Color products here.
