Celebrate Sunflowers Triple Panel Card with video!


I made this card on Facebook Live last night on my weekly Monday night 'Stamp with Me'.  It's such a fun technique!  

I love blues and browns together and chose to use Just Jade, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Pool Party with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here).  What do you think of this color combination? One of my favorite things about creating is coming up with unique color combos.  

I have some great tips on doing this technique.

  • Start out with three colors of card stock measuring 3 1/2" X 4 1/2". 
  • Cut these into three strips 1 1/2" wide. 
  • Lay them together and adhere a piece of copy paper to the back side to keep them held together while stamping. 
  • Stamp large and small images all over the three colors of card stock with Soft Suede ink. *Always stamp the largest image first! 
  • Or use Designer Series Paper instead of stamps! 
  • Adhere to the Early Espresso layer (4 3/4" X 5").  Then to the full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base. 

The pool party greeting strips are either 3/4" or 1" wide by about 4" long.  I used the new Pick a Punch (seen here) on the ends and added a thin strip (about 1/4") of Early Espresso card stock under it as an accent.  I finished it with a double bow made with our Linen Thread.

  • Unique Frosted Forest bundle shown multiple ways! Free project sheet & video too


    On last week's Live video I shared multiple ways to use the Frosted Forest bundle.  Here are two of the cards I made. 

    I used Granny Apple Green & Shaded Spruce here. I stamped the outline of the trees in Shaded Spruce and then added color by using the coordinating stencils with ink and blending brushes. (Pecan Pie ink is used on the tree trunk).

    Here is an example of the dies with a few coordinating stamps & stencils. 

    See this special stamp, dies & stencil bundle here. 

    I hope you watch the video here or below to see the many ways to create with it. I share a unique way to add extra detail to the large tree. It gives an easy 'leafy' texture. 

    A layered banner greeting across the bottom finished it off nicely. The birds are also included in the bundle. I used Pecan Pie to stamp them and then a blender pen to spread the ink a bit. 

    Here's the free project sheet for these two cards; click on the following link to download or print it: Download Frosted Forest 2 trees cards

    I think the combination of these two colors for these pine trees works wonderfully. 

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and two more!  Be sure to follow me on YouTube here.

  • More New Catalog Product displays


    A few week's ago I held my Holiday Catalog open house and I shared a few of the displays earlier. Today I'll share the rest for you. 

     

    The Season of Elegance suite includes two bundles, the designer paper, an embossing folder, gems and ribbon.  See it all here. 

    The Season of Elegance specialty designer paper was a top seller at the event.  It's stunning! See it here online.

    I created a display for the Christmas Label dies that coordinates with the bundle seen here.  I love these so much!  The dies aren't just for the Holidays! 

    And here are the Peaceful Season dies at are part of the bundle seen here: 

    Next are the Reindeer Days & Sentimental Christmas displays: 

    Most of these are swaps I received; only the two on the right lower edge are mine.  I love swapping – especially to get samples of products I didn't buy and to show styles that are different from mine. 

    Here's a close up of the last display board – Snowy Scenes Suite, Humble Home bundle & Take a Bow DSP:

    See all of the new Holiday catalog products here. There's lots of new & exciting stuff!
