• Two-Tone Flora card with more ideas in the video

  February 21, 2023

  ---

  Here's a pretty card I shared on a recent Facebook Live.  It features the Two-Tone flora bundle seen here. 

  Save

  My colors include Daffodil Delight, Soft Succulent and Orchid Oasis. I kept this card very simple to show off the beautiful detail in the flowers.  

  The greeting is from the Framed Florets stamp set seen here. 

  Save

  I used Very Vanilla to stamp on as I haven't used it much lately.  It's a softer feel than White.  Does your Vanilla need some love too?

  I hope you're inspired by this fun technique.  Click on the photo below to watch the video and see more cards with this bundle.

• Two-Tone Flora cards; get two cards with one technique!

  February 20, 2023

  ---

  I shared a bunch of projects featuring the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here on last week's FB Live video.  

  I hadn't played with it at all and couldn't stop once I started!  Here are two cards that may look similar at first, but look closely….

  Save

  The card on the left has the large, sponged & colored die-cut on the front.  But the card on the right is the colored layer underneath the other.  So cool!  I show how this is done with the small Blending Brushes in the video here.  

  I used three colors for these cards – Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Calypso Coral. It also features Very Vanilla which I don't use often enough. I found the small blending brushed worked really well for the detailed areas on the die-cut. You can see these brushes here. 

  Here are both cards with the actual colored die-cut piece on the front. 

  Save

  I accented it with the Sentimental Park, Stylish Shapes and Amazing Thanks dies. Also a few Brushed Brass Butterflies finished the garden feel of these cards. 
  

  Save

  Below are the cards that show off the area under the sponged die-cut.  The colorful sponging reveals the die-cut detail on the Vanilla but the flowers and leaf areas are colored. I love this 2 for 1 technique!  I'm sure you have some dies you could use like this too.  

  Save

  The dies above include the Painted Label and Circle Collection dies; along with the Two-Tone Floral dies for the leaf. 

  Save

  I enjoy using two-step stamp sets for the wonderful details and hues of color you can achieve.

  I hope you're inspired by this fun technique.  Click on the photo below to watch the video and see more cards with this bundle.

• There are just two days left to get this gorgeous card kit to go!

  February 17, 2023

  Sunday is the last day to opt in to receive this beautiful pre-cut card kit to go.  It features the stunning Enjoy the Journey designer paper.  

  Cards like this one really show it off! 

  Save

  Many of the cards in this kit are fun folds.  Remember that everything is pre-cut for you including die-cuts & punched pieces.  The only thing you have to cut is your brand new designer paper that's included in the card kit.  

  Besides a half pack of designer paper you also get shares of three spools of twine and Black Matte dots.  The PDF tutorial is free in the kit.  It's $28 plus shipping and the kits are mailed out at the end of the month.  

  I design these cards so all you need are greeting images; this time I featured the Happy Labels stamp set seen here. Add it on to the kit to go and you're just $6 away from a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Contact me here to add on to your kit. Black ink is the only color you'll need to finish the cards.

  This is another card included in this kit.
