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

After the Storm all Save

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. 

After the storm scenes Save

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

After the Storm Freesia Save

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.  

After the storm sunset Save

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!

  • Sweet & Simple Treat pouch with free project sheet & video

    I shared this neat treat pouch on last week’s Live video. It’s super simple and requires a 6″ X 12″ sheet of designer paper.

    Save

    I made one before and one during the video. The left pouch above features the Made with Love designer paper. The right one uses the Lovely & Beautiful specialty designer series paper.

    Save

    What I like about this is there’s no special measuring; just score on the lines on the template in the project sheet seen below. The belly band makes closure easy and you can decorate the front in any way you’d like. It’s 1 1/4″ X 10 1/2″. Watch the video to see how I form it around the pouch. There’s no need to score it; just bend at the folds leaving a bit of room for sliding it off.

    Save

    I used the 1 3/4″ circle punch and the To the Point punch. The greetings are from the Words of Beauty bundle seen here. The little heart punch is retired.
