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.  

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!  

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. 

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!

  • Star & Snowflake Ornaments; so pretty!


    I had to give these gorgeous star projects a try!  Sara from Stampin' Up! made them for a tree topper but they were one sided.  I decided to turn her idea into ornaments by making them 2-sided.  

    They're made with our Stitched Stars dies seen here.  I used the largest and third smallest to make these. I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP but unfortunately it was on the retired list and is sold out now. 

    You probably wonder where the snowflakes come from.  They are called 'Wonderful Snowflakes' and they also just sold out! The retiring list can be so hard; items you want can be gone in an instant! 

    You need a good stack of Dimensionals between each layer like this: 

    You can see why you need a smaller star inside; to support the stacks of Dimensionals. *There's a second stack under that smaller star.  You'll add a second large star on top of the dimensional stack seen above. 

    Tips:

    • I found a stack of 4 to work best.
    • I added a rolled up mini glue dot to the tip of each star point to secure them together.  It's not necessary but does finish if off so they stay closed. 
    • Add the cord with a glue dot to one of the star points. 

    They were so fun to make I couldn't stop! I plan to add these to my cookie trays or to Christmas presents instead of a traditional bow. 

    I thought this last one would look sort of ho hum in this pattern.  But once I added our Red Rhinestones to the snowflake it sure came to life!  

    Below is the video to see exactly how to make these pretty ornaments.  They're the third project I share.

  • Origami Christmas Tree card; soooo easy!


    I make one of these trees almost every year.  Why? Because they are easy & fun and we always have new Designer Paper for me to play with. 

    All you need are four squares of DSP. No scoring or other measurements.  Watch the video here or below to see how it's done. 

    Here are the supplies:

    • Card stock – Old Olive & Mossy Meadow card bases, Real Red & Cherry Cobbler layers, White greeting strip & inside
    • Designer Paper – Heartwarming Hugs (out of stock now) and Sweet Stockings
    • Greeting image from the Christmas Cheer stamp set
    • Star topper from the Starlit punch
    • Embossing folder – Evergreen Forest (out of stock temporarily) 

    Measurements: 

    • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”
    • DSP – 4 square pieces at 1 ¼”, 1 ¾”, 2 ¼” & 2 ¾”

  • Easy Christmas Ornament card


    I think this is pretty clever & unique; it's a 'faux' Christmas ornament on a card. And it's quick & easy too!  

    It looks so real; like you could lift it off!  And you actually could if you use temporary adhesive; or add it to a pocket.  

    I shared this project on a FB Live last week.  It's the second project I made in this video.  

    Products used:

    • Merry Melody embossing folder on the White CS
    • The ornament is made with the largest smooth circle in our Circles dies. 
    • The DSP is called Painted Christmas and is in low inventory right now.  
    • Elegant Trim for the 'hanger'. 
    • Brushed Metallic specialty CS for the 'hanger'. 
    • Heat embossing for the greeting – from the Words of Cheer stamp set. 
    • CS is Real Red, White & Evening Evergreen 

    Here's a close-up of it. 

    I give a few hints in the video on achieving this.  Basically you want to stamp your greeting first and add it to your DSP.  THEN cut both pieces out at the same time with your circle die. 

    Below is the video for you. I share another special card project and some pretty star/snowflake ornaments as well.
