• Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial

  July 8, 2024

  ---

  I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

  

  It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

  

  I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

  

  My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

  In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

  

  For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

  The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

  Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!

• Lily Pond Lane card kit – limited quantities!

  July 5, 2024

  ---

  The adorable Lily Pond Lane designer paper is the star of these colorful cards. I created 5 card designs; 3 of which are fun folds. What I like about this DSP is how versatile it is; young or old, men, women or kids – it's great for anyone! 

  

  Each month I create two card kits where the DSP is the focus of the projects. These cards can be purchased as a pre-cut kit to go or choose the PDF tutorial option. Those who choose the kit will make 2 each of the 5 cards for a total of 10 cards.

  I have a limited number of kits available due to limited stock; opt in soon! 

  This kit includes the following Stampin' Up! products:

  • 10 pre-cut cards including die-cuts and punched pieces
  • 1/2 pkg of Lily Pond Lane 6 X 6" designer paper (some fussy cutting needed)
  • a share of Dappled Dots gems
  • a share of Peach Pie 3/8" ribbon
  • the free PDF tutorial with measurements, photos, supplies list and step by step directions.

  You will need the following to complete the cards:

  • Pretty Peacock ink (or a similar color)
  • Greeting images (i used Simply Said & Unbounded Love but any will work)
  • Paper snips scissors & Paper Trimmer, Adhesives 

  Opt in for the pre-cut card kit ($30) with products here.  Or choose the PDF tutorial option for $15 here. 

  The card kit will mail out at the end of July. The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment.  Add on a second kit to go & save on postage.

  Tips on earning & using these coupons:
