My Team held a swap featuring Designer Paper and this is the card I created for it.  

I loved the 'Inked Folder' technique so much I wanted to feature it on my card.  You can see how it's done in the video here.  And more examples featuring this Pretty Flowers embossing folder here.  

This embossing folder is a free gift to anyone who places an online order over $50 in June. *See it here. 

I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

  1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
  2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
  3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
  4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
  5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
  6. Repeat!   

The Black & White striped Designer Paper is from the Pattern Party host pack seen here.  It's free with Hostess Rewards.  How do you get host rewards?  If your order is over $150 you earn free product and can choose from anything in the catalog including the items on pages 170-171 which are marked down just for host rewards!

  • Neat fun fold card with a Blends/embossing technique with Fields in Bloom; video & free project sheet too!


    I really love the card I'm sharing with you today.  In addition to it being a unique fun fold there are so many great details! 

    I used the Fields in Bloom & Everyday Greetings stamp sets which are both wonderful. But what makes this card so special is the technique and the fun fold. 

    There is a second folded card under the window; inside the main card base.  For the window, I used the Everyday Details dies seen here.  They are in the online store now but were in last year's catalog. It creates a perfect window for the hill of flowers scene. 

    I stamped the flowers and leaves images in Versamark and heat embossed them in White.  Then I used Blends markers to color the embossed flowers & leaves. This is such a fun technique and super easy too.  I love that I can get these two large images colored in multiple colors this way. Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

    It's photopolymer so you can see just where to stamp each image over the other.  Watch the video here or below to see how simple it is. 

    My colors include Lemon Lolly, Shaded Spruce and a bit of Petunia Pop. Here's a shot of the window & fun fold aspect of this card.

    I used the new Everyday Greetings set for my greeting images.  See it here; it's in the online store.

  • Fields in Bloom Center fold with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video.  It's a center fold card featuring the Fields in Bloom stamp set. 

    I think this Field of Flowers stamp set is a bit of a sleeper. Until you use it you can't know how easy and amazing it is to create this field of flowers!  It's just two stamps!  The leaves are usually stamped in green and the other in a color for the flowers. 

    It's photopolymer so you can see just where to stamp each image over the other.  Watch the video here or below to see how simple it is. 

    Below is the inside view. I used the new Everyday Greetings set for my greeting images.  See it here; it's in the online store.  The greeting die-cut is from the Season of Greeting dies seen here. It's my new favorite dies for greetings. 

    My colors include Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink and Balmy Blue.
