If you're a fan of Black & White paper like me you will love it!  I find adding a pop of color to these monochromatic patterns to be an easy starting point for creating.  

I chose to pair this designer paper with our newest In Colors to create my Card Kit to Go for February.

This 10 card kit features mostly unique fun fold designs in our 2021-23 In Colors of Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen & Polished Pink.  

It includes approximately $20 in product & the cards kit for just $28 plus shipping.  You'll receive:

• a share of the new All Together 6 X 6" Black & White DSP
• some Black & White Gingham ribbon
• & some In Color rhinestone jewels

• Paper Tags Joseph’s Coat technique with video tutorial

  June 23, 2025

  ---

  I played with the Paper Tags stamp set and the Irresistible Designs Specialty Paper for last week's video.  Here's my favorite project: 

  Save

  The colors include Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana and Gorgeous Grape in inks.  The card stock is Black, White, Daffodil and Highland Heather. 

  For the colored designer paper panel I started with a piece at 4" X 5" and blended the three inks on it diagonally. This Irresistible specialty paper seen here resists the ink where they printed the resist designs. Once you add ink, it reveals their pattern.  So cool!  

  After I blended the colors on I randomly cut the single panel into 5 pieces on the diagonal. I share how I did this in the video here. I adhered each panel one at a time starting in the corner. You may need to trim one of the pieces slightly to fit the card base.

  For the inside of the card I stamped the greeting and added color to it with coordinating Blends markers. 

  Here's how you do the Joseph's Coat technique:

  1. Sponge or blend multiple colors onto your neutral cardstock. 
  2. Swipe the embossing buddy over this layer; tap off excess powder. 
  3. Ink the stamp image in Versamark ink; stamp onto the layer. 
  4. Immediately heat emboss with Black embossing powder. 

  Once I had my tag, I trimmed it by hand (there are coordinating dies) and added a few extra pieces to lengthen the tag and add more layers. I finished it off with a bow.

  June 21, 2025

  Today I'm sharing two neat fun fold cards made by a few of my Flowerbug's for a recent card swap. Our them was to use a new 2025-27 In Color and make it a fun fold.  

  First is a card made by Joan who used the new Online Exclusive set 'It's Okay' seen here.

  Her In Color is Strawberry Slush and she loves to color; as you can see!  It's a triple fold card; here's how the first panel opens:

  Here are her measurements:

  • front white panel 3" X 4 1/4"

  Isn't her coloring gorgeous?  That Bokeh DSP is perfect here!
