  • A pretty home decor framed sampler with Life is Beautiful!

    I made this shadow box home decor piece with my Life is Beautiful stamp set.  It fits in a 12" shadow box frame.

    Here's the Life is Beautiful stamp set I helped design as part of my Million Dollars in sales achievement with Stampin' Up!. You can order it here. 

    LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET Save

    Two tips! 

    • The 'ground' image can also be clouds!  Cool, right?
    • And if you stamp the tree twice, you can achieve a 'thicker' trunk and fuller tree.  Just lower the image on the second stamping.

    I did use the Field of Flowers stamp set for the grass, flowers & dragonflies.  I sponged the white card stock with Balmy Blue to remove the 'white' background.  I added Shimmery Crystal Effects on the dragonflies and leaves on the top greeting piece. 

    Colors used: Soft Suede, Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Old Olive, Balmy Blue

    Products: In Good Taste Designer Paper, sponges, Linen Thread, Heat embossing in White, Shimmery Crystal Effects, Artistry Blooms adhesive backed sequins, 2 shades of Brown markers for bird house,

  • Beautiful Autumn paired with Plaid Tidings

    There are lots of gorgeous Fall products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.  I paired a few of my favorites to create this card; the Beautiful Autumn punch bundle and Plaid Tidings 6 X 6" designer paper pack. 

    Beautiful Autumn Plaid Tidings Save

    I trimmed off 3/4" from the front flap to reveal the strip of pretty Plaid Tidings designer paper.  I chose to use Bumblebee, Mint Macaron, Early Espresso and Terracotta Tile inks here.

    The Beautiful Autumn bundle includes the stamp set and the three leaf punches; all for 10% off.  Click here to see it online. 

    I also used the Wrapped in Texture embossing folder for the front layer, which is 5 1/4" X 3". See them here.

  • Gather Together card with a cool punch trick!!

    Marilyn made this pretty card for our Team swap.  She used the Gather Together bundle in the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.  There are two really neat tricks you might not notice at first glance.  

    August Marilyn Gather Together Save

    Can you spy the two special techniques here?  Keep reading and I'll share them below.

    Measurements:

    • Cajun Craze 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Very Vanilla 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Rich Razzleberry 5" X 3 3/4"
    • Plaid Tidings 1/2" X 3 3/4"

    Products Used:

    Okay, now I'll reveal her two tricks!  

    1. Can you see the changes in colors on the textured leaves?  The bottom three leaves were die-cut & embossed (done all at once!) and then spritzed with water.  The water changes the color on the leaves!  I cannot believe it's just water and no ink to get this effect.  Super cool!!
    2. Next is the greeting shape.  It's made with the Label me Lovely punch.  You can get multiple shapes from this punch.  Here's how:
    • Punch one piece out.  
    • Add a bit of adhesive to the end of a thin piece of card stock and adhere it to the punched piece. 
    • Insert the piece back into your punch and adjust it to get whatever size shape you want!

    Here are three shapes I made with this punch.  Super neat and so versatile!  See the punch here.
