Beautiful stamped scenes & video with After the Storm set


Since I cannot draw, sketch or paint I stamp.  My husband, Mom, sister and cousin have all painted beautiful scenes and I have many of them hanging in my home.  I think this is why I love creating stamped scenes.  Scene builder sets are some of my favorites; it truly makes me feel like an artist!  I made these cards on a recent FB Live. *video is posted below

The After the Storm stamp set (seen here) is France Martin's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set.  It caught my eye right away.  I had a play with it one afternoon and created these cards. 

I'm sharing two today and will give the details on the other two tomorrow. 

You might wonder where I got the hills/mountain image.  Well it's the clouds stamp!  I love finding new ways to use stamps to create something beautiful yet unexpected! 

The colors here are Fresh Freesia, So Saffron and Garden Green.  I used a direct to paper technique, swiping my ink pad across the White CS for the horizon.  I stamped the clouds using Fresh Freesia ink. 

I did add just a bit of Pale Papaya ink at the top and swiped my White Craft ink pad across it at the end. 

For this next card I used a totally different technique with the Blending Brushes.  

I used the following inks: Old Olive, Pool party, So Saffron and Calypso Coral. I used Blending Brushes for the Pool Party and So Saffron inks and for the sunset I used a sponge dauber for the Calypso Coral.

Again I used the large cloud stamp to create the hills. 

Below is the video for both of these cards & two more!

  • Thursday is the last day; crazy Kits Collection BOGO deals!


    Have you tried any of our current Kit Collection kits yet?  Check them out here ASAP. Tomorrow is the last day of the BOGO promotion.

    I demo'd them on last week's Live so you could see how wonderful they are.  Click here to watch.  

    How does the BOGO work? 

    It's quite unusual in that the second kit at 50% off can be the more expensive one.    

    Such as; buy one for $12 and get a second kit at $20-25 at half off!  Crazy but true!

    The first kit I'm sharing is the Light the Candles kit seen here.  It includes everything you need to complete these 8 cards.  

    I love how bright & colorful this kit is and the dimensional strips are easy to use.  The cute glittery prints are quite eye catching. 

    These kits are 'all inclusive' which means everything is supplied for you.  Many include the ink and stamps and others have pre-printed sentiments with no stamping needed. There's something for every taste or need.  Click here to see them all. 

    The Robot Buddies kit is perfect for kids.  It has a neat robot stamp set in it and includes TWO ink spots! too. 

    Click here to see all of the 17 kits available!  Remember these change frequently.  If they run out of stock they usually come back. They say they'll be available (while supplies last) for a year after they're introduced. 


     

    Due to popular demand I have another Annual Catalog paper share going. There are 2 spots left.

    Contact me here if you'd like one. It's $26 for eighty two 6 X 6" sheets!

  • Easy Triple Accordion fold with tutorial, measurements & video


    We made this pretty Triple Accordion card last night on a FB Live video seen here.  It's a neat fold that is also quite easy to make. 

    I used the Awash in Beauty designer paper along with the coordinating True Beauty bundle seen here.  

    It stands up nicely but also folds into a 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" A2 size card.  

    Measurements: 
    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4", 4 1/4", 7 1/4" & 8 1/2"
    • Pink layer is 4" square. Cut 2
    • DSP – 2 pieces at 3 7/8" square
    • White 2 1/4" X 4"

    I am challenging everyone to make and share one on my FB group page here by July 17th to be entered in Prize Patrol for a free embellishment.  


    The entire suite is beautiful!

    You can get a share of this pretty designer paper in my Annual Catalog paper share. I still have a few spots left! Message me here Details are at the bottom of this post.

    My colors include Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink & Balmy Blue.  The pretty die-cut flowers are all from the Awash in Beauty designer paper.  The Organic Beauty dies are designed perfectly to match the DSP!  The only stamping I did here are the two greetings; all of the flowers are die-cut from either card stock or DSP.  

    Do you see the little bit of color on the Pink blossom die-cut?  I used Wink of Stella and my White craft ink to add color. Watch the video below to see how.

  • Fun shaker card with the Bottled Happiness bundle!


    We made this fun shaker card at my June card clubs.  It features the Bottle of Happiness bundle and the Vintage Bottle Shaker Domes seen here.

    Heads up!  Soon I will be posting my weekly videos on YouTube each Tuesday morning instead of Facebook. So be sure you're following me on YouTube.  Click on the red bell so you're notified when I go live.  

    I wish you could shake it yourself!  There's just something extra special about an interactive card and the Bottled Happiness bundle makes it so easy. 

    The colors are Pear Pizzazz with the new Orchid Oasis.  The products I used are:

    • Bottled Happiness bundle (stamp set & Vintage Bottle punch)
    • White CS, Pear Pizzazz & Orchid Oasis inks and card stock
    • Stitched with Whimsy dies
    • Vintage Bottle Shaker Domes 
    • Effervescent Elements (pretty beads inside the dome)
