Celebrate Sunflowers Triple Panel Card with video!

June 16, 2020
I made this card on Facebook Live last night on my weekly Monday night 'Stamp with Me'. It's such a fun technique!

Save

I love blues and browns together and chose to use Just Jade, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Pool Party with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here). What do you think of this color combination? One of my favorite things about creating is coming up with unique color combos.

Save

I have some great tips on doing this technique.
- Start out with three colors of card stock measuring 3 1/2" X 4 1/2".
- Cut these into three strips 1 1/2" wide.
- Lay them together and adhere a piece of copy paper to the back side to keep them held together while stamping.
- Stamp large and small images all over the three colors of card stock with Soft Suede ink. *Always stamp the largest image first!
- Or use Designer Series Paper instead of stamps!
- Adhere to the Early Espresso layer (4 3/4" X 5"). Then to the full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base.
The pool party greeting strips are either 3/4" or 1" wide by about 4" long. I used the new Pick a Punch (seen here) on the ends and added a thin strip (about 1/4") of Early Espresso card stock under it as an accent. I finished it with a double bow made with our Linen Thread.

Blossoms in Bloom; another pretty cards duo

June 15, 2020

Today I have a pair of cards made with the 'Split Technique'. This is where you stamp or die-cut once to get two cards.

I used the Blossoms in Bloom bundle seen here, cutting out two sets of floral dies. I'm sharing lots of projects featuring this incredible bundle this week.

Save

I sponged the thicker die-cut with Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay. Then I adhered the thin die-cut over the sponged one using liquid multipurpose adhesive. Next I cut the full, layered die-cut in half so I could place each half on a card.

What do you think of this color combination? I like to find unique combinations when I play with Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous variety of colors.

The Many Layered Blossoms dies includes two large dies and several smaller flowers. The two large dies include both a finely cut and a thicker blossom die for effortless layering. I cut out once of each; both from Whisper White card stock.

Save

The Highland Heather layer is textured with the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. It's very subtle and gives a delicate textile pattern.

Save

The greeting die-cut banner is from the Tasteful Labels dies; stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.
