Marvelous Nature Ombre technique with video tutorial

Today I'm sharing the other card I made during Tuesday's video.  Both featured the new set called Marvelous Nature.  

Marvelous Nature ombre Save

I used an ombre technique where I inked the solid stamped image with three inks consecutively.  The top is Pool Party, the middle is Lost Lagoon and the bottom is Pretty Peacock.

You can see this pretty Marvelous Nature stamp set here. 

The greeting is from the set but I did use the Stylish Shapes dies for it and popped it up on Dimensionals.

The card base is Lost Lagoon with two strips of Pretty Peacock under the main image.  As you can see by the photo below the left card is lighter than the right one.  In the video I went over the upper part of the image one more time using the Stamparatus; mostly so I could get a more solid, complete image.

  • Wow Team swaps for a fun Coaster Calendar!

    This month my Flowerbug's Team decided to do a Coaster Calendar swap.  This was super fun and quite easy when you could make multiples of the month you chose.  I do love swapping! 

    We could use retired or current products on these swaps which opened up a lot of possibilities for creativity! 

    The first group are January through June:

    Coaster Calendar 1 Save

    This next group is July through December:

    Coaster Calendar 1 Save

    They're all 4" square and the layer for the printed calendars (which haven't been added yet here) are 2 1/4" square. We punch holes in the top of each and add two 4" card board coasters to the front and the back for stability. *these were purchased online years ago. The printed calendar was created by my husband and I cut it up into 2" squares. 

    Here's how I decorated the front of mine:  I kept it quite simple; a 4" square piece of Winter Meadow DSP along with a die-cut and the year cut out with number dies.  I trimmed the corners to match the coaster.

    Here's the next group of swaps; some are the same as those above since a few people did multiple groups of the same month. 

    These are January through June: 

    Coaster Calendars 3 Save

    And these are July through December:

    Coaster Calendars 3 Save

    Each one is fabulous!  I love seeing everyone's personal style.

  • More swaps from my talented Demo friends

    I have a few more swaps to share with you today.  These are all from our newest Online Exclusive products. 

    First up is a pretty floral card from Susan Campfield. She used the Happy Hibiscus bundle. 

    Happy Hibiscus Susan Save

    This bundle includes a Hybrid embossing folder that includes dies that coordinate with the folder!  It's so cool. You can see it here in my store. 

    In the photo below you can see the die-cut images that are textured. This is done when the die is inserted into the embossing folder with the card stock.  Yes; it is incredible! 

    HAPPY HIBISCUS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The next few cards feature the Marbled Elegance suite: 

    This first pretty card is made by Natalie Travis who made the focus of her card that gorgeous golden stitched heart. 

    Marbled Elegance Natalie Save

    That pretty heart is die-cut with the Hearts of Elegance dies from our new Brushed Metallic paper in both Gold & Silver. See that here. 

    Her measurements are simple – the DSP is 4" X 3", a strip of Cherry Cobbler is 4 1/4" X 5/8" on a Pretty in Pink card base. 

    Next is a gorgeous card made by Sandy Carlson:

    Marlbed Elegance Barb M Save

    Her colors are Melon Mambo with White and the same beautiful Marbled Elegance specialty DSP. She also used the new Hearts of Elegance bundle seen here.

    Thanks for stopping in.  I hope you're been enjoying the swaps I've shared.

  • Check out these swap cards from the Otterly Amazing Suite!

     

    Otterly Amazing Julie Save

    Two punched circles and a 3 1/2" square of DSP show off the elements in this Otter suite. The colors include Balmy blue, Calypso Coral, Old Olive and Early Espresso.  

    ~~~

    This second swap with the Otterly Amazing suite is made by Tracy Jacobs. 

    Otterly Amazing Tracy Save

    She created a fun fold by cutting up to the 5 1/2" score line at 1". That layer is adhered to the back of the card base so only the left card front opens. Simple but 'amazing' too!  It really shows off the playful scenes in the Otterly Adorable DSP.  See the DSP here. 

    Below is the bundle with the stamps & dies: 

    OTTERLY AMAZING BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    See this Otterly Amazing bundle here.  Many of the images in the DSP can be cut out with the Otterly Amazing dies.

    You can see the entire suite here.
