Soft Seedlings with the new Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes


On yesterday's FB Live I shared 3 cards featuring the new Soft Seedlings stamp set.  The first two featured the new FREE Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes too.  

These Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes are a free choice from our new Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here.  I love SAB when we can all get something free with our orders!  Spend a minimum of $50 and pick something absolutely free!  

These cards & envelopes are one of my top picks in the catalog. You can use them for lots of cards in the future! 

The package includes 20 envelopes and 10 each of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam card bases.  Today's project features the Soft Sea Foam card base. 

You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned look of the leaf. I stamped it first in Soft Sea Foam and removed a bit of the ink on the edges with a sponge dauber.  Then I added Pool Party ink to those same areas. Huff and stamp!   Watch the video here to see how it's done. 

There is a vellum leaf on the stamped leaf for both texture and shimmer.  I sponged the punched leaf (Bough punch), sponged a bit of color and curled the leaves.  Lastly I added Wink of Stella to both leaves for a pretty shimmer effect.  

I trimmed off 1" along the bottom edge of the card base and adhered it to the inside. 

Then I cut a white scalloped edge using the Contour Scalloped dies.  I textured the 1 1/4" Pool Party card stock strip with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder seen here.  I LOVE this folder!  I attached the embossed layer to the scalloped White trim and then adhered to the card front.

The 'hello' is stamped on a die-cut from the Tea Cup dies and added over two bows; one with Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon and another with White twine.  

Click on the video below to watch how it's made along with two other cards using this stamp set.

  • Cheerful Daisies card; perfect for Springtime!


    I'm excited to share this pretty card with you. We made it at my May card clubs. It features the Cheerful Daisy bundle.  

    I absolutely love the colors!  I chose Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, white and the new Azure Afternoon.  I think the blue washed layer from the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper shows off the white & yellow daisies perfectly.  

    Here's how we finished the inside: 

    I sponged extra yellow on the Lemon Lolly daisy centers before adding the White die-cut over them. Here's  a photo of the dies  display I made: I did not add the separate individual daisies that fir over the large yellow die-cut below.  On my card they're white.

    The ribbon wraps all around the card front and ties on the far left.  The greeting covers the knot so you see mostly the ends. 

    Check out that amazing, detailed greenery die-cut!  It even comes out of the die easily.  Love it!  


    See the Cheerful Daisies bundle here; I think it's wonderful!  Best daisy set we've had for awhile.

  • Quick cards with just ONE sheet of the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper!


    The Fresh as a Daisy designer paper seen here is filled with pretty daisy prints and soft washes of colors – many are our newest In Colors and Core colors! 

    Here are the 4 cards I made from just one sheet!

    This one sheet has a bunch of printed, blocked patterns ready to make fast cards with.  

    One of my favorites is this one; featuring a pretty bouquet of white daisies on our new Bubble Bath pink color. 

    I added a strip of White card stock below, ribbon, a greeting and a pretty foliage die-cut which are both from the Cheerful Daisies bundle. 

    I LOVE this one!  Again, white daisies on a washed background. I paired this piece over a strip of Early Espresso cardstock on a Lemon Lolly card base.  I heat embossed the greeting in White on the die-cut in the Cheerful Daisies bundle. White twine finished it off! 

    What a gorgeous scenic background this is!  I dd nothing to it but stamp the stems & leaves and added the die-cut daisies, greeting and gems.  The colors are Copper Clay with Crushed Curry. 

    Lastly is this pretty triple-panel card in Azure Afternoon with Copper Clay.  I cut the daisy panel into three pieces measuring  1 5/8" X 4" tall. 

    Again I heat embossed the greeting in White embossing powder onto a piece of Copper Clay card stock. I added a die-cut daisy to the side. 

    I'm featuring this pretty paper in one of my May card kits to go. I have a limited supply of them so grab yours while you can.  See it here.  

    Which one of these is your favorite?

  • Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!


    This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not! 


    Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

    The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!  


    If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

    I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

    And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed. 

     

     

    I have enjoyed playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle this month.  You cannot go wrong with balloons; they're great for birthday's, graduations, weddings or any celebratory event. 


     You can see this bundle here online.  

    Click here or on the photo below to watch how it's made.
