Cute Little Ladybug projects!

January 16, 2020

I created some adorable projects on my Facebook Live this week with the Little Ladybug's stamp set! Check it out here. Every Tuesday at 11 am CT I'm Live here. **Although it will be on Wednesday, January 22nd next week instead.

We made them at my Flowerbug's Team meeting on Saturday too.

The Little Ladybug stamp is found at the back of the Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's FREE with any $300 order. Tomorrow I'll share ideas on how you can earn it yourself.

Or place an order with me during January and get in on the prize drawing for one lucky person who will get this stamp set free!

The card above on the left was made by my friend Susie Wood; it's a spinner card! I loved it so much I had to make one. I'll share the details on that card tomorrow and another card next week.

I used punches to create the windows on this card from the 5 1/4" X 4" Black CS; it's really a great way to highlight your images. Sometimes I struggle with smaller images; just what do you do with them to create a great card?!

You could use anything in the windows; greetings, flowers, critters – the sky's the limit! Look at your stamps in a whole new way!

Did you notice the 'fussy cut' greetings? I have a tip for you! Save the paper backing on your red rubber stamps and use it as an outline to trace over your stamped greeting. Or if you didn't save it, trace the main rubber stamp itself. Save the template in your stamp case for repeated use.

Welcome Easter; three adorable card swaps!

April 10, 2020

I received these cards in a long distance swap I participated in. Unfortunately their labels came off so I don't know who made two of them so I cannot give credit. So if you know of if it's yours please let me know!

They're so adorable I just had to share them with you! You can see this stamp set here:

I love this peek-a-boo bunny here! Yes; it's fussy cut. There aren't dies for it. She used Highland Heather and our Subtles designer paper. I really like how she die-cut a circle from the square, flipped it over to reveal the reverse side of the designer paper. Very cool! See all of our packages of 6 X 6" designer paper here.

That thin strip of Best Dressed designer paper adds a spring-like touch to it! The sequins are from our Adhesive Backed package.

I know Karen Titus made this one. I just love her water-coloring! Adding that bit of light gray or tan with a Blends marker adds so much depth!

The White is 2 5/8" stitched square from the Stitched Shapes dies. The other colors are Seaside Spray, Gray Granite, Petal Pink and Soft Seafoam and are 1 3/4" square. This layout really highlights the main image.

Have a wonderful Easter weekend!

I used the Dressed to Impress, Butterfly Gala and Peaceful Moments stamp sets to finish mine. In the tutorial I give you two examples of each card so you can make either or both. Add on either stamp set or bundle at a 10% discount!

You have two choices: get the pre-kit to go which includes the pdf tutorial. Or opt to purchase the pdf tutorial alone.

Music From the Heart; in a rainbow of colors!

April 8, 2020
I saw a card like this online made by Diane Barnes and had to make it for my friend Becky's workshop a few weeks ago. She loves color! It's made with the Music From the Heart stamp set seen here. It's just $17!

Save

We stamped the treble clef multiple times and the greeting on a separate piece of White CS. Then we fussy cut the words apart and colored each one with a Blends marker.

The rainbow of sponged colors are done on another piece of card stock measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"; the same size as the finished card. Our sponge daubers work perfectly here. It looks pretty messy but you are only seeing a 'peek' of in on the edge so it really doesn't matter much. It's the rainbow of colors you're wanting on the edge.

Save

Measurements:
- White full card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White sponged layer is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
- White stamped layer is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2"
Details:
- Ink colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point, Gorgeous Grape.
- Blends colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Light Navy, Dark Highland Heather
