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.

  • Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays


    My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending.  I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food.  Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays. 

    First is the Splendid Autumn display: 

    I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left. 

    I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.  

    Next is my Regal Winter display: 

    I shared a few of these cards on last week's Live video which you can here and another one here.

    Next is the Nest of Winter suite which is filled with wood grains, birds and nature. 

    I shared some of these cards in this video seen here. 

    I created a sample for the dies in this suite too.  I should have colored them in but I didn't take the time. 

    I'll share more soon!
