Cutest Crew Club card; quick & cute! Free project sheet too

This is one of the cards we made at my April card clubs; it features the Cutest Crew bundle.

The Cutest Crew bundle (seen here) has been so popular they cannot keep it in stock! The dies were available last week but now they’re gone again. They should be back the week of May 18th though. Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get a notification as to when they’re available.

My colors are Coastal Cabana with White, Pecan Pie & Crumb Cake. I used the Hobby Haven and Wood Grain Wonders designer papers on my card. Here’s the cat version:

I colored the critters in with Blends markers; stamping the images with Black Memento ink. The stitched die is from the Nested Essential dies seen here; one of my favorites.

I stamped the paw prints image repeatedly in the inside and added one of the pet die-cuts.

Which is your favorite?

I shared a video last week on Facebook and it’s now uploaded to my YouTube Channel. Plus you can access the free project sheet here.

• String Art Technique; fun, easy & the results are a big WOW!

  April 5, 2023

  ---

  I shared the String Art technique on last week's Live video.  It's been years since I tried it and it brought back how much fun it is!

  That cool swirly, colorful image is made with a length of twine, ink refills and a phone book.  Yes; a phone book!  Any book will do but I a phone book is okay to get inky.  

  And another neat thing about this technique is you get two finished panels from one technique!

  You might notice the card on the right has thicker lines.  I believe that piece was on the bottom and had more moisture on it.  

  I used Bermuda Bay and Parakeet Party ink refills for this technique, along with about 14" of baker's twine. After the piece was created I let it dry and textured it with an embossing folder.  

  *Bermuda Bay card stock, ink pad and refill are already sold out.  Products can go so fast on the Last Chance list!

  Other products used: 2022-24 In Color dots seen here (Just $4; reduced by 50%!), the Quatrefoil embossing folder, Butterfly Kisses 6 X 6" DSP, 2022-24 In Color Baker's Twine pack. 

  You really need to watch this technique in action.  It's so much easier than to try to explain it.  

  Watch the video here or click on the image below to see this special technique. It's the third project in the video.

  The Share a Milkshake bundle is SWEET and super fun to create with.  We made this fun card at my March card clubs:

  You can see the Share a Milkshake bundle here; it's filled with cute 2-step images, quirky font greetings and fabulous dies.  See that straw in the ice cream?  It fits into a 'slit' in the die-cut ice cream piece. 

  *This bundle is carrying over into the new Annual catalog but it will not be a bundle at 10% off any longer; the stamp set & dies will be sold separately.

  That bottom large die above folds into a textured sugar cone; you can then insert your 'scoops' of ice cream in it like the project below shared by Stampin' Up!

  Here's what we stamped inside our card.  The 2-step bowl of ice cream with a die-cut silver spoon is extra special.

  My colors include Coastal Cabana, Sweet Sorbet and Polished Pink with a bit of Early Espresso for the chocolate topping die-cuts. the striped DSP on the bottom is from the Country Floral Lane DSP in the Spring catalog.   

  Here's the free project sheet for this project; it includes measurements, directions and supplies. Download March 23 Share a Milkshake
