Delicate Dahlias with a 2-toned color technique


Here's a card I made for an online swap I participated in.  I needed to use an item from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog and the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was my first choice of sets.  

It has a large dahlia along with a smaller flower image as well. And both are 2-step stamps with outline and solid, dystinktive images to match.  It also has two sets of leaves and 4 wonderful greetings as well!  

The triple-rectangles frame is a die-cut called Picture This dies.  You get 2 dies in the set; a set of rectangles and one of circles.  What I love most about these dies is that you can use both; the small stitched pieces OR the large frame!  See it here in the online store. 

Can you see the multiple hues of colors on these flowers? I inked the large solid dahlia in Pale Papaya ink first.  Then with a sponge dauber I added Calypso Coral ink on the outside and the center.  Then huff and stamp.  Clean between each inking. The small flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral ink and fussy cut.

  • Festive Cheer meets Spotlight on Nature dies; free project sheet with video


    Here’s the other card I shared on last week’s video:

    My colors include Golden Glow, Garden Green with Cherry Cobbler. I trimmed off a bit from a standard card to show off the checked DSP on the right side. This is the Creative Celebrations mix DSP seen here.

    It features the Festive Cheer stamp set seen here and the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. This set of dies includes multiple sizes of circles with stitched and textured edges. It’s fabulous!

    Note the textured Garden Green layer on the front. This is our Two-toned card stock that comes in every color! After running it through the Rustic Check embossing folder I used a new sanding block to show off the texture even more.

    I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, photos, directions and a supply list. Click here to download or print it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and the other card I shared.

  • Festive Cheer Christmas card


    I love this fun fold card! Two step stamping is one of my favorite types of stamps.

    I chose to use Cherry Cobbler, Peaceful Pine & Golden Glow as my color combination. The Designer Paper is the In Color gingham DSP seen here.

    The Festive Cheer bundle is filled with two-step ornaments and great holiday greetings. And the dies coordinate wonderfully! See this bundle here.

    It’s a unique fun fold in that the greeting tab on the left holds it closed. There’s a third score line on the right side of the card that will bend as it opens.

    Here’s what it looks like fully opened. I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it.

    The video tutorial is below this next image. I’ll share my second card with this stamp set in a few days. Stay tuned.

  • Poetic Petals in a soft color combination


    If you like soft and subtle colors here’s a pretty color combination using two of our newest In Colors – Barely Blush with Crisp Cantaloupe.

    The color combination is inspired by the beautiful Bloom Boutique specialty designer series paper seen here. It has bit of gold foil and includes all of our newest In Colors.

    The unique Poetic Petals bundle seen here is what I used for the dies and greetings. Note the textured background and ribbon knot!

    It’s the Softly Woven 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s temporarily out of stock but should be back in a week or so. To achieve this ribbon knot simply tie one color of ribbon around the other and trim the ends. Add with a mini glue dot.
    The greeting tag is not current; it was among my stash of die-cuts and seemed to fit perfectly here.

    I shared the left card above yesterday. I used the basic layout but changed the cards for one landscape and one vertical. As you can see the Bloom Boutique specialty DSP includes pretty color combinations of our newest In Colors. Love it!

    Thanks for stopping in today; I hope these pretty cards inspired you.
