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!

• Friends for Life cards; a quick layout you’ll love. Check out the free project sheet & video too

  July 2, 2024

  Today I'm sharing an eye-catching card made with the Friends for Life bundle.  I think they're fabulous if I do say so myself!

  Save

  They feature the Friends for Life bundle seen here.  I also used two more favorites – the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder.  *Click on each title to see them in my store. 

  The unique Designer paper is the Full of Life 6 X 6" paper seen here.  I love it so much; it includes bright bursts of colorful patterns filled with watercolor type prints.  *my free tutorial of the month features this suite!  See below. 

  Save

  The measurements are so simple. I cut the 6" DSP down to 5 1/4" X 6" and then cut that into two pieces – one for each card. I then textured it with the Dotted 3D embossing folder and added it to a narrow strip of coordinating card stock on the left side. 

  All that's left is to add the layered circles and friend die-cut. 

  I matched the DSP with coordinating card stock. The card above is Night of Navy and this card below is Shaded Spruce.

• A Round We Go card with free project sheet & video tutorial

  July 1, 2024

  ---

  I fell in love with the Round we Go bundle after making this card!

  Save

  Click here to see the Round we Go bundle online. It includes a die that makes awesome rosettes!

  Save

  As you can see I used many of the fun die-cuts includes as well as a few stamps.  I did heat emboss the greeting with White embossing powder. Heat embossing adds a special touch to cards in my opinion. 

  My colors include the new Summer Splash with Melon Mambo & White.
