Casing my friend with Caring Leaves & video


Last week I was out of town to see my son get married in the beautiful Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming.  

The photographer was incredible; I have to share some of her early shots with you.  It was a quick trip but we were blessed to be there for the small ceremony. We had a wonderful time driving through the stunning park with the photographer scouting out photo opportunities.  We're thrilled to add Katrina to our family!

Today I'm sharing the swap card I made for our Team card swap this month:

My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Beige & Very Vanilla.  Peacock is one of my favorite 'outside the box' colors for autumn projects. 

Two of my favorite types of stamps are 2-step and Distinktive and this set is both!  It's a sweet & simple set & it's just $17. See it here. 

When I was planning my card for the swap I came across the card on the left below.  It's one my friend Susie Wood made awhile ago. I loved the layout and cased it using the Caring Leaves set. 

Casing a favorite card or layout is my go to when designing a new project. It's fun to switch up colors and products while using the same design. 

I created a video that's posted below.  I stamped the outline leaves on the large Pretty Peacock layer before embossing it with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. I also stamped an extra leaf to fussy cut and add under the tag.  See the measurements below.

Measurements:

  • Basic Beige 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2"
  • Pretty Peacock 2 3/4" X 5 1/2", 2 3/4" X 4 
  • Pumpkin Pie 2 1/2" X 3 3/4", 4 1/4" X 1" strip
  • Very Vanilla 2 1/4" X 3 1/2" plus tag die-cut

Below is the video I shared along with card swaps from my Team.

  • Peaceful Nativity WOW card


    Look what happens when you combine a beautiful background with the Nativity Dies?!  

    Candace created this gorgeous card for our October Christmas cards swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  She is a master at sponging backgrounds.  I believe she used Pacific Point here.  She simply added a greeting (from For Unto Us set) embossed in Silver and the pretty scenic die-cuts in Black.

    More Team swaps tomorrow!

    I also joined a few online swaps with these products; here's one of my favorites!


    I chose to use two of the colors in the Classic Christmas 6" designer paper pack; Cherry Cobbler & Sahara Sand.  I cut 3/4" long strips and adhered them to a 5 1/4" X 4" piece of White CS.  Then I used the dotted, curvy die to cut about 4" down from the top.  Then I turned the die over to cut the other end and trimmed it to fit the card. 

    The greeting is from the Quite Curvy stamp set which is available in the bundle at 10% off.   


    Get it whole bundle and I'll send you a free Winter Snow embossing folder

    and the 22 project PDF tutorial too!

  • Festive Corners Triangle Christmas Tree Card


    Look at this cool swap card Paula made using the Festive Corners stamp set seen here and the Stitched Triangle dies! 

    She used Pear Pizzazz, Real Red & Mossy Meadow card stock and the classic Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper.  And she saved paper by cutting out the DSP triangles from her large designer paper layer (behind the White CS).  I love that!!

    Check out the Triangle Dies here and the Heartwarming Hugs DSP here. 

    I'll be sharing lots of my Team swaps this week; stay tuned!
