Decorative Borders Book Binding card with video tutorial

March 17, 2023

I shared this special card on a recent FB Live. It features a few techniques and is a fun fold card too.

It's made with the Decorative Borders stamp set seen here; a new favorite!

Save

When I saw this pretty leaves image I thought of creating a frame with it. I show how on the video below.

This book binding fold is so easy; it's just one extra fold line!

Measurements:

Black card base 4 ¼” X 11” score at 4 ¼” & 5 ½”
White 3 7/8” square, inside is 4" square
Polished Pink 4”
Parakeet Party 1” X 4

Save

I used my Stamparatus to create the pretty border on the Parakeet Party strip and a Baby Wipe technique for the colorful flowers. The leaves are colored with Blends markers; note the pretty shading! Parakeet Party & Granny Apple Green blends.

The greeting is from the Framed Florets set seen here.

There are so many ways you might use this set; I share a few more in the video below. It would be perfect to decorate your envelopes too!

Fabulous Gone Fishing bundle swap cards

June 11, 2023

Father's Day is coming up Sunday and the Gone Fishing bundle is perfect for the occasion.

I received two swap cards on the cruise and thought you'd like to see them. First is my friend Susie Wood's card. Her style is similar to mine and we often share cards with each other. My husband and I spent time with her and her husband Deke on the cruise; not enough but we both treasure our friendship so much! Check out her fabulous blog here. She is super creative and a master at fun folds.

Save

Her colors are Night of Navy with Vanilla and Boho Blue. The tag is made with our Very Best Trio punch seen here.

Next is a card I received from Janet Holmes. The curvy border die-cut shows off wonderfully here.

I'll have lots more to share with this bundle soon!

Marvelous Nature Ombre technique with video tutorial

June 9, 2023

Today I'm sharing the other card I made during Tuesday's video. Both featured the new set called Marvelous Nature.

Save

I used an ombre technique where I inked the solid stamped image with three inks consecutively. The top is Pool Party, the middle is Lost Lagoon and the bottom is Pretty Peacock.

Save

You can see this pretty Marvelous Nature stamp set here.

The greeting is from the set but I did use the Stylish Shapes dies for it and popped it up on Dimensionals.

Save

The card base is Lost Lagoon with two strips of Pretty Peacock under the main image. As you can see by the photo below the left card is lighter than the right one. In the video I went over the upper part of the image one more time using the Stamparatus; mostly so I could get a more solid, complete image.

Pretty Marvelous Nature card with video tutorial & measurements

June 8, 2023

I've seen a few projects with the Marvelous Nature set and was intrigued by it's reverse images. And it's nature so I ordered it. This card was one of two I made on this week's Live video:

Save

I chose to use Lost Lagoon with Pretty Peacock. I also added some of the Hello, Irresistible designer paper. This pretty DSP is on sale right now too! See it here.

You may also spy the shimmery strip beside the greeting. This is our Soft Shimmer 12" X 12" paper pack seen here. It has 5 rich colors in it.

Save

The Marvelous Nature stamp set (seen here) includes two beautiful images and three greetings. I kept my card very simple to show off the pretty fern image.

Save

I love these colors together!
