Beautiful Autumn themed card swaps by my Team.

Today I’m sharing two card swaps by my talented team members. Our theme was Autumn or Halloween.

First is a stunning card made by Tracey. She used the new Stampin’ Hot Foil system here:

I was absolutely blown away by this card! She used the Lustrous Leaves hot foil dies seen here. It includes a set of masks that allow you to add gorgeous colors using Blending Brushes.

Here’s a photo of the bundle:

Her colors include Lost Lagoon with Crisp Cantaloupe. The silver hot foil details really makes the leaves stand out!

The greeting is stamped on a Spotlight on Nature die-cut. See those here.

Next is a sweet fall card made by Candy.

She used the Simple Leaves bundle seen here.

Her colors include Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Berry Burst and Old Olive. The neat embossing folder is called Textured Tree Ring and can be found here. It’s on the Last Chance list and available while supplies last. It’s reduced in price too!

I’ll share another Team swap card tomorrow; stay tuned!

• Neat Fun Fold – Diagonal ‘Faux’ Pocket card!

  August 13, 2021

  ---

  I made this unique fun-fold card on Monday night's FB Live.  It was Stamp with Me night; the 2nd & 4th Monday's of each month here on my FB page.  You can see all of my videos here on my YouTube channel. 

  

  Isn't it pretty?!  This paper is called Blackberry Beauty and it's filled with Gold accents on each sheet.  You can see it here.  It's also featured in my August card kit to go here and PDF tutorial here.  

  

  The greetings are from the Sunny Sentiments stamp set in the Annual catalog; one of my favorites for greetings.  See it here. The printed die-cuts are from the Blackberry Beauty Ephemera pack seen here. 

  

  The card below is the same fold; but made with the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper.  These colors are Pale Papaya, Polished Pink, White and gold accents.

  

  Below are the measurements for you.  I highly recommend you watch the video below; it will make it much easier to make. 

  

  And here is the video; I hope you watch it.  You will love making these unique cards!

• Delicate Dahlias with Poppin’ Pastels technique

  August 12, 2021

  ---

  This weekend I'm holding a technique class and this is one of the cards we're making.  It features our new Soft Pastels and the Poppin' Pastel technique. 

  

  The stamps are from the Delicate Dahlias set that is currently free with a $100 order.  It's a beautiful 2-step, photopolymer set that's also Dystinktive.  This means it gives multiple hues of color with one inking; a process Stampin' Up! has created. 

  The outline images are stamped with Black Memento ink and the inside is colored with our new Soft Pastel chalks seen on page 126 or here in my store. 

  Tip: scrape off a bit of the chalk and use the powder. You'll achieve brighter colors.

  You need Versamark ink for the solid stamped image. Next you add the chalk to the Versamark stamped image with sponge daubers.  I daubed most of the color on but rubbed it in the center of the flower for a darker hue. The leaves are fussy cut and added separately. 

  

  Measurements:

  • Poppy Parade 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
  • Beautifully Penned DSP seen here (free now during Sale-a-Bration) 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
  • White 3 " X 3 1/2"; inside is 4" X 5 1/4" 
  • Black 3 1/4" X 3 3/4"

• Delicate Dahlias with a 2-toned color technique

  August 11, 2021

  ---

  Here's a card I made for an online swap I participated in.  I needed to use an item from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog and the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was my first choice of sets.  

  It has a large dahlia along with a smaller flower image as well. And both are 2-step stamps with outline and solid, dystinktive images to match.  It also has two sets of leaves and 4 wonderful greetings as well!  

  

  The triple-rectangles frame is a die-cut called Picture This dies.  You get 2 dies in the set; a set of rectangles and one of circles.  What I love most about these dies is that you can use both; the small stitched pieces OR the large frame!  See it here in the online store. 

  

  Can you see the multiple hues of colors on these flowers? I inked the large solid dahlia in Pale Papaya ink first.  Then with a sponge dauber I added Calypso Coral ink on the outside and the center.  Then huff and stamp.  Clean between each inking. The small flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral ink and fussy cut.
