Misty Trees Beauty of Friendship card


With each new catalog I always join several card swaps so I have lots of samples to share with my customers.  

Here's one I created featuring the Beauty of Friendship Bundle. 

The colors are the new In Colors of course; Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen.  The background stamping is made by stamping the trees several times without reinking. This gives you several hues/generations of ink which creates a misty, grouping of trees.  I love this effect with a 'naked' tree!  It reminds me of my Father-in-Law who loved naked trees.  

Other details:

  • The greeting is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink on a 1" strip of our Vellum card stock.  I immediately heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Classic (or waterbase) ink does not dry quickly on vellum so you get colored, embossing easily. 
  • The vellum was cut long enough to wrap around the outside edge and adhere to the back side.
  • The dark tree was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink on White CS and die-cut with the Beautiful Trees dies. 

You can see this Beauty of Friendship bundle here.  It's just lovely and I think it's going to be super popular!

  • Gather Together Tag Punch Fun Fold


    Check out this fun fold card Deloris made for a recent Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds from the 2020 Holiday catalog. 

    She used the Gather Together bundle seen here and the Scalloped Tag Topper punch seen here.  


    Her colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso & Sahara Sand.  The tag punch is pushed in to create the design on both edges and then the sides are trimmed with a paper trimmer.  A really lovely design!  

    I'll be sharing more of my Team Fun-fold card swaps next week!

    Look at this super cute Fun Fold card featuring the Gift Wrapped bundle seen here! 

    I LOVE the bright, eye-catching colors she choose; Granny Apple Green & Poppy Parade.  Can you see that she used both the Light & Dark colors in these Blends markers?  

    She also used the Wink of Stella on the punched bow and 'ribbon' on the front. See that cute baby tag?  That's part of the punch too! 

    Can you see how the front flap catches on the greeting on the left?  Love this! 

    Measurements: 

    • Granny Apple Green 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" and 3" X 6" scored at 3" and two 1/2" X 2 3/4" strips and a 1" X 1 1/4" piece for the greeting layer
