Create this eye-catching scene with ink and blending brushes; video tutorial too!


Here's another card I created on last week's video. Do you love colorful scenes too? 

Here I used Cloud Cover cardstock for my base; scored it an extra time to create a flap near the center. This is a great way to add the main element of your card.  In this case it's a stamped and colored tree scene on our new Party Banner dies.  

I found the Peaceful Pier stamp set seen here to be perfect for my scenes. It's a great line-art set you don't have to color in, as you can see in my example. 

Here is the free project sheet with measurements and supplies listed: Click on the following link to download it.  Download Peaceful Pier fun fold scene

I am now adding my project sheets to my Flowerbug's Stamp & Share FB group the same day I share the live video.  Click here to join the group. 

I used these inks for blending; from bottom to top – Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Cloud Cover. Blending brushes make it easy to add ink smoothly. But there are tricks to it!  

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes.  I hope you watch it!

  • How to make the embossing folder the star of your card; with video!


    I shared a few ways to highlight the texture on your 3D embossing folders on last week’s video. I shared the cards I created with the 5 new In Colors and how it’s done.

    This is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently out of stock unfortunately. Please put your name on the list to be notified when it’s back.

    Steps: I textured the CS first. Then rubbed my Craft White ink pad over it lightly. It catches on all the pretty raised areas, highlighting them beautifully. This can take some practice and I recommend you ink pad not be fully inked.

    I wrapped matching In Color ribbons across the cards and added a greeting. So simple but stunning in person.

    The greeting die-cuts are from the Scalloped Blooms dies seen here. The greetings are from the Opulent Oasis & Balloon Festoon stamp sets.

    Of course this technique; I’m calling it ‘white-washing’ shows up best on darker card stock. Here’s one I did with the Fern & Flora embossing folder seen here:

    This is our new Peaceful Pine in color. The greeting tag is from the new Classic Labels Mix & Match ephemera seen here. Love these pretty White labels!

    Below is the video tutorial with tips for success on this technique.

  • Beautiful Scenic Coast swap card


    Look at this beautiful Scenic Coast swap card made by Darla. Our Team swap theme was to use new product from the 2026 May-August catalog.

    She used multiple new products here. First is the Scenic Coast DSP seen here and the Sunset Coast bundle here for the main image. I love how she added yellow to the lighthouse and green to the hills. They are small itty pieces inserted in the die-cut windows. Wow!

    The background is Crisp Cantaloupe textured with the So Swirly embossing folder. The White ‘Thank You’ die-cuts are from the Words & Wishes dies seen here.

    Just plain stunning! And she is a very new swapper on my Team too! You did a wonderful job Darla!

    Thanks for stopping in today!
