Blessings of Home & Flowers of Home dies projects

Look at this pretty card I made on last week's Facebook Live. 

Save

Lots of pretty details on this card:

• Blessings of Home stamp set & Flowers of Home dies for the leaves
• I used watercolor pencils & blender pen to color the floral image
• the gold honeycomb sheet is from the Sweet Sunflower Paper Pumpkin kit; it was a free gift add on
• I used the gold honeycomb sheet to add a pretty, blended background using Balmy Blue ink & a Blending Brush

Save

The Flowers of Home dies are in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog but also available free with a $100 Stampin' Up! order during Sale-a-Bration.  See them here. This option ends on Wednesday, August 30th.  See all of the Sale-a-Bration options here. 

The stamp set & dies are available in a bundle too.

I made a second card using mostly the Flowers of Home dies.

Save

I cased the card from Sue Mohr; I thought it was simply elegant way to create a 'wreath' around the oval sentiment.  

The oval dies are from the Fabulous Frames dies seen here.  When you cut out the oval it creates both the frame and the inside; two pieces with one die! 

I textured the White layer with the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  It's so pretty and works perfectly with these flower & leaves die-cuts.  

Save

The colors I used are Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia.  

Tip; when adding these delicate die-cuts use just a tiny but of Multipurpose Liquid glue.  

Save

Remember that these Flowers of Home dies are free with any $100 order through Wednesday, August 31st.  Sale-a-Bration ends that day.

• Snowflake Vellum fun fold card with video

  December 22, 2022

  ---

  We made this pretty card at my December Card Clubs.  I thought snowflakes would be perfect for many occasions coming up. 

  Save

  I used the Snowflake 12" specialty vellum that 'was' in our Holiday catalog.  They ran out of stock in early December.  And the Wonderful Snowflakes (large white snowflake) was discounted on the Last Chance list but they've run out now too!  This time of year is so difficult to plan for.  

  But they loved the card and thought the fold was fun too. 

  I shared how to make it on my FB Live yesterday.  Click here to watch. 

  Save

  Details: 

  • The back of the card is simply a quarter sheet of Starry Sky card stock – 5 1/2" X 4 1/4".  
  • The fold is 3 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". 
  • The large piece of vellum and the white inside are 3" X 4".  The side pieces of vellum are about 1 1/2" X 4".
  • I used the Joyful Flurry stamp set (retiring) & dies for the inside of the left card.  The Frosted Flurry dies are now out of stock. The birthday greeting on the right is from the Celebrating You stamp set (annual catalog)
  • The Starry Sky stitched circle is 3" around; a die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies seen here.  They are also out of stock right now!  Sheesh!  I picked popular items for this card, didn't I?

  December 21, 2022

  ---

  The Splendid Day suite is on the retiring list and most of these items are discounted on the Last Chance list; while supplies last.  

  Save

  I thought I'd highlight a few of my past projects featuring them.  

  The bundle is retiring in about 2 weeks; it's while supplies last. The Splendid Stems dies seen here are currently marked down to $13.60 from $34.  The Open Leaf trinkets are marked down from $8 to $3.20.  See them here. I can't believe they're still available at these prices!  

  Save

  This gorgeous Splendid Day specialty designer paper seen here is now just $6, marked down from $15.  The Soft Sea Foam seam binding ribbon is super thin and soft.  It's super easy to work with.  It's also on sale, while supplies last, for just $3.20.  See it here.

  The Splendid Thoughts stamp set has some beautiful greetings in it; I love the fonts!

• Cottage Wreaths gift treat bag with video; easy and uses your DSP too!

  December 20, 2022

  ---

  I shared this cute project on a FB Live video a few weeks ago.  It features the Country Wreaths bundle and the Santa Express designer paper.  Here's the link to the video. 

  Save

  The Cottage Wreaths bundle is carrying over into January. See it here. 

  Look at the wreaths above; they're each unique, showing how much variety there is in the stamp set & dies.  

  The left is mostly die-cuts with an additional bow & berries added.  The right has the stamped wreath over the die-cut green wreath.  The bow is die-cut from Red glimmer paper. So many options!  

  Save

  I started with a piece of DSP at 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". Score at 1 1/4" with the short edge at the top.  Then with the long edge at the top score at 2", 4", 6" & 8" up to that first score line.  Tip: You're only scoring the bottom of this bag. 

  Crease on the score lines and glue together.  *watch the video to see how.  

  Save

  Click on the photo below to watch the video.  There are two other projects before this one in the video; all featuring the Cottage Wreaths bundle.
