Daisy Garden with Picture This dies

Yesterday I shared a card featuring the Daisy Garden stamp set and today it's a totally different type of card.  

Daisy Garden Picture This Save

The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The daisy stamp peeks out from behind the window die cut circles made with the Picture This dies on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Black CS.  Can you see the stitches?

These dies include both a large set of circles and another with three rectangles.  You can use the windows like shown above or the die cut circles or rectangles which I used here for the greeting.

Check out the Picture This dies here. 

And here is another way to use these dies; with Designer Paper behind the window.  It's the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper seen here; it was unavailable for almost a month.  And it was in stock for a week but it's unavailable again now until early August.  It's so popular!

  • Explosion ‘Wow’ cards with step by step video tutorial and template.

    We made explosion cards on Facebook Live Monday night.  I host a free class called Stamp with Me Live on the last Monday evening of each month on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow me there.

    I always upload the video on my NEW YouTube Channel afterwards so even if you're not on Facebook you can watch it later.  

    I chose to use the Favored Flowers designer paper – it's a free Sale-a-Bration choice right now; while supplies last.  You can earn it free with any $50 order from Stampin' Up!.  See it here.

    The card starts out as a gate-fold fun fold card.  Easy enough….  I chose to fussy cut a few flowers & leaves from the pretty DSP to add to my greeting element.  The greeting is from the Fitting Florets stamp set. The white stitched circle is from the Stylish Shapes dies.  I also added a few Brushed Brass butterflies; love these!  They're so dainty and nice & flat.  

    Here's the inside view of the explosion insert:

    I added the layered squares on the diagonally at the center of the explosion piece.  Note that this is only adhered on the very outside edge of the inside card.  It sort of floats.  Please watch the video here to see exactly how it's done.  It's quite difficult to explain how this is done in writing.  

    **I created a free project sheet for this card; Download it here

    Below is the template I used for the designer paper explosion layer.  You'll start out with a 4" X 8" piece of designer paper and score vertically at 2", 4" and 6".  Then score on the diagonal 4 times as shown.

    I hope you try making one of these; they're so fun!

  • What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP

    We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team.  I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.   

    Sketch CC Favored Flowers Save

    I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.  

    I love this sketch because it's simple and unique.  A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed.  My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed.

    My measurements are: 

    • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
    • Calypso Coral  2 1/2" X 4"
    • Evergreen 1" X 5"

    I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here.

    Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card.  I highly recommend them.  You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.
