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.

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.

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!

  • Joseph’s Coat technique video with the Botanical Layers

    We're making these cards tonight on Facebook Live here on my FB page!  It's a technique that will WOW you with it's magic.  

    Botanical Layers josephs coat Save

    I chose to use the new Botanical Layers stamp set along with two new In Colors of Tahitian Tide & Parakeet Party.  I also added a bit of Bermuda Bay. 

    The first step is to add color to a Basic White piece of card stock.  I used our Blending Brushes and added it randomly like this: 

    Botanical Layers josephs coast technique Save

    The next step is to stamp your images onto this colored card stock using Versamark ink and heat emboss using Clear embossing powder.  I highly recommend using an embossing buddy; although Stampin' Up! does not currently have them in our catalog.  It prevents excess powder from adhering to your paper before you stamp and heat emboss.  

    After your heat embossing dries you need just two things to make these colorful, magical technique.  A classic 'dark' color of ink – I used Memento Black.  And a tissue or paper towel.  

    You will take your classic/water-based ink pad (Black Memento for me here) and rub the ink pad directly over the heat embossed card stock.  Because the ink is water-based it will not adhere to the heat embossed areas but WILL adhere to the background that is NOT heat embossed. 

    Next use a tissue or soft paper towel to rub off excess ink to reveal your colorful design.  

    Here are my two pieces before I finished my cards:

    Here are the measurements:

    • Card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • stamped layer is 4" X 3", Parakeet Party green is 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"
    • 2 pieces DSP 2" X 1 1/2" and a greeting die-cut

    In this photo you can see a bit of the shine on the leaves from the heat embossing.  It truly is magic!  Join me here tonight at 7:30 pm CT.

  • The Sending Smiles bundle is so versatile! Check out these two projects.

    Last week I shared three projects with the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  I think it's one of the best choices in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

    I also wanted to use the Pretty Prints designer paper and chose the Bermuda Bay sheet in the package.  I also wanted to use one of the new In Colors and settled on Sweet Sorbet.

    Next I had to choose a coordinating color to soften these two vibrant colors and settled on Blushing Bride.  I was so surprised how well these colors combined!  

    The next thing that inspired this layout was a card sketch we have been working on in my Flowerbug's Team group.  As you can see I changed the main image to be on the angle.  

    Sketch 35 Save

    Sketches are one of my favorite ways to get inspiration on card layouts. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 4" square
    • White 2 3/4" square
    • Sweet Sorbet 2 7/8" square
    • Glimmer paper strip 3/8" X 4 1/4"  

    Can you see that the flowers are darker in the center and lighter on the outer petals?  I inked the flowers in Sweet Sorbet ink and stamped off once.  Then I used a sponge dauber to add more Sweet Sorbet ink to just the center.  You can see this technique in the video here.

    This next card was a make & take at my New Catalog Launch party a few weeks ago.  I wanted to have a cute but easy card they could make featuring our new In Colors.

    They were able to stamp the flowers easily and perfectly with the Stamparatus. You can see how it's done in the video below.  

    SENDING SMILES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    One of my favorite thing about this bundle is how versatile the greetings are; so many possibilites! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 
    • White layers are 3 3/4" X 5"
    • Starry Sky is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" 

    And here's the video; click on the photo below to watch these two cards and one other too.
