Cute Little Ladybug projects!


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.

  • Save this template! 4 quick cards with the new Iconic Celebrations DSP. Video & free project sheet too


    I have something brilliant to share with you today. How would you like to use two 6" sheets of DSP to make 8 easy but multi-layered cards?  I used an easy template with simple measurements to create some fabulous cards. Here's one of my favorites:

    And here are all of the blue cards in order left to right.  My colors include Misty Moonlight, Boho Blue, Mossy Meadow & White.  

    It starts out with two sheets of 6 X 6" DSP; in this case the new Iconic Celebrations from the Online Exclusives seen here.  *Two sheets of 6" DSP will make 8 cards.  You can opt to use just one sheet and not have any variation.

    You'll cut each 6 X 6" designer paper piece into four 3" squares. Then cut three of those into a few pieces like this (one is left whole):

    The photo above gives you the DSP AND layering cardstock measurement.  You can find the other measurements for the supporting layers on my free project sheet.

    Besides the Iconic Celebrations DSP, I used a few other new Online Exclusives products – the Everyday Greetings stamp set and the Greetings of the Season bundle seen here. 

    Click here or on the video below to watch how these cards are made.  I share a second version in Cherry Cobbler & Mossy Meadow during the video.

    On the project sheet it lists the products I used. The ribbons here are the Iridescent 1/2" striped trim and the Gold & Silver 1/8" trim combo pack from the Annual Catalog. 

    Click on the photo below to watch the video and see how I used the easy template for these multilayered cards.

  • Do you ever make cards made from leftover pieces?


    Today is the last day of the Paper Pumpkin sale – refills and add-ons are up to 75% off! See it all here

    ~~~

    I had a bunch of fussy cut coffee cups leftover from a previous project plus a stack of A Little Latte designer paper layers too.  Here are some of the cards I made with them.  

    Aren't they great?  You'd never know I made these with leftover pieces! It's a fun challenge to put random layers together in a pleasing way. I really enjoyed making these as thank you's for my online orders. 

    Here's a photo of the cute A Little Latte designer paper. There are two sheets of coffee cups you can fussy cut.  Or get the Latte Love bundle that has dies to match. 

     

     I knew I needed a neutral base to add the layers to so I started out with a textured White layer added to my card bases. I chose the So Swirly embossing folder seen here. After adding the DSP pieces & coffee cups I finished the cards with greetings and a twine bow. 

     

    I keep a small bag of White die-cut greeting pieces on my desk so I grabbed some of those for my greetings.  Done! 

    I think they turned out great.  Do you ever grab your leftovers to create with?
