Today I'm sharing the 2nd group of cards Candace made featuring the Gone Fishing suite.  If you missed the first batch, click here to see them.  

GONE FISHING BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

She was our Artist of the Month for June and chose this special bundle; so unique and perfect for the fishermen (and fisherwomen!).  See the Gone Fishing bundle here. 

This first card is filled with layers and details – well all of them are really!  

Gone Fishing 2 Save

The colors include Misty Moonlight, Petal Pink and Pebbled Path.  She added Wink of Stella to the fish, and bobbin.  That fish is gorgeous. I love the wavy cut DSP at the top and her sponged sky.  And did you notice the rhinestone 'bubbles'?  

Below is the inside of this card; she always adds details to her card inside layer. 

Gone fishing 2a Save

Next is a fun fold card where the center panel lifts up.  It's adhered to a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" layer. 

Gone Fishing 5 Save

Her colors include Pebbled Path and Misty Moonlight with a bit of Vanilla and Boho Blue. 

The folded panel is 3" wide X 8" tall and scored at 4". The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" in the back and the front panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"

Next is a neat card featuring the Spiral Dye. She stamped it twice; once in Pool Party and once in Lost Lagoon.  

Gone Fishing tie dye Save

The Stitched die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes dies. Notice that shiny paper banner?  That is the new Holographic Trio specialty paper on page 127 of the Annual Catalog.  

I'll share more of her amazing projects tomorrow.  Don't miss the next set!

    We made this sweet card at my March Card Clubs – it features the Easter Bunny bundle.  This bundle is currently unavailable.  you can get the Easter Bunny stamp set now but the Bunny punch is returning in May. 

    Easter Bunner March Save

    It's a Floating Panel fun fold card; one of my current favorite folds lately.  It's both fun to make and easy to create too!  

    My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Daffodil Delight.   Below you'll see the baby version. I gave my gals the choice of Easter or baby.

    The greetings for the baby card are from Charming Sentiments. Click here for the PDF project sheet for measurements & products used.

    Here are the measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2". Scraps for bunny & circle punch. Two strips 1/2" X 1 1/2" for the floating panel hinges

    Here's a tip on the Floating panel:  You need just two pieces of card stock about 1/2" X 2 1/2". Fold them in half and adhere to the center fold; one on each side.  Your front panel is adhered to this.

    Have you ever done the baby swipe technique?  It's so fun; playing with baby wipes and ink refills is a bit addictive!  

    I made this card for our March Team swap; the theme was to use a technique involving ink refills.  

    Baby Swipe Save

    My colors include Daffodil Delight, Polished Pink and Black.  

    Other products used:

    Can you spot the shimmer?  I used the Pearlescent paper from the Annual Catalog.  See it here. 

    It was the perfect sheen for this technique as the moist ink did not absorb quickly like it might for regular card stock. Glossy paper would also work well. 

    After I added the color, I let it dry for an hour or so.  Then I textured it with one of the embossing folders in the 3D Basics pack seen here.  These are currently out of stock but they'll be back in May. 

    Baby Swipe Save

    Below you can see the difference in my cards; especially the colors. One is soft and subtle and the other more vibrant.  This happens as you work with your baby wipe; the first few swipes are bold and the next few are much softer. 

    Tips for success: 

    • Fold and roll your baby wipe in a tube.  Hold it tightly and add a few drops of ink refills. 
    • Add each color separately in a row.  I tend to add enough for about 1/2" of surface. 
    • Start swiping off your paper and then onto it.  You can do straight swipes or get creative and add curves or swirls. Let dry.
    • Shimmery, pearlescent or glossy works best. But you can do it on regular card stock too. 
    • I suggest you use light to medium colors. 

    Baby Swipe card duo Save

    Notice the colors of the butterflies? I colored the Brass Butterflies with a Polished Pink blends marker for the left card.  I wasn't sure I liked it or not so left them uncolored for my swap cards.  

    Watch the video here or click on the image below to see this technique. It's the last technique I share in the video.
