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.

  • Pretty is the word for the Hand Penned suite!


    This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite.  I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents. 

    That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen here on page 131 of the new Annual catalog.  It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June. 

    I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.  Click here to see the bundle.

    The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.

  • Sweet Ice Cream Fun Fold card with video tutorial


    We made this special fun fold card at last month's Card Clubs.  See how it latches on the punched ice cream piece? 

    I used the Sweet Ice Cream bundle and the Ice Cream Corner Designer Paper seen here.  This DSP is retiring in June; if you like it get it now while you can. The cones on this card are punched from the designer paper itself.  No need to stamp them when the paper is perfect! The card stock is Cinnamon Cider with Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive.

    You can mix & match the designer papers for a nice variety of cards.  I used Blackberry Bliss, Pear Pizzazz and Cinnamon Cider ink, stamping off first for the solid ice cream images. 

    The Sweet Ice Cream bundle is available now in the Spring catalog. This set & punch are carrying over into the current Annual catalog but they are no longer a bundle at 10% off.  Save $$ and get them now at a discount. 

    Be sure to watch the video below to see how to make this card. 

    Here are the measurements for you:

    • Cinnamon Cider 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2" plus 3 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      White 3 1/4" X 4" and 3 3/4" X 4 1/2"
      Old Olive gift card option 2 3/4" X 3 1/2"
      DSP – top 3 1/4" X 4", bottom 2 1/2" X 4"
