I bet this year many of us will be giving gift cards more than ever.  This social distancing is hard but during the Holiday's it's going to be so tough!  If you are missing celebrating with your family this year I feel for you.  Holidays are meant to be enjoyed together. But if it keeps us and them safe I'm sure it's the right decision. But we don't have to like it, right?! 

Here's a fun gift card holder you can make to give those gift cards in.

• Blossoms in Bloom; another pretty cards duo

  June 15, 2020

  ---

  Today I have a pair of cards made with the 'Split Technique'. This is where you stamp or die-cut once to get two cards.  

  I used the Blossoms in Bloom bundle seen here, cutting out two sets of floral dies. I'm sharing lots of projects featuring this incredible bundle this week. 

  Save

  I sponged the thicker die-cut with Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.  Then I adhered the thin die-cut over the sponged one using liquid multipurpose adhesive.  Next I cut the full, layered die-cut in half so I could place each half on a card.

  What do you think of this color combination?  I like to find unique combinations when I play with Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous variety of colors.  

  The Many Layered Blossoms dies includes two large dies and several smaller flowers.  The two large dies include both a finely cut and a thicker blossom die for effortless layering.  I cut out once of each; both from Whisper White card stock. 

  Save

  
  

  The Highland Heather layer is textured with the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  It's very subtle and gives a delicate textile pattern. 

  Save

  The greeting die-cut banner is from the Tasteful Labels dies; stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.

  I made these cards and recorded it on video so you could see how fast they can be.  There are three different card layouts all using the same three colors.  Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape and Bermuda Bay inks with these same card stock colors plus Coastal Cabana and Whisper White.  

  Save

  The White greeting die is from the Tasteful Labels dies.  I hand cut the larger one. 

  Measurements for this card:

  • Granny Apple Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
  • Gorgeous  Grape  3 3/4" X 5"
  • Whisper White 3 pieces at 3 1/2" X 1 1/2"

  Measurements:

  • Coastal Cabana card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"

• Flowers for Every Season

  June 11, 2020

  ---

  The Flowers for Every Season paper pack is the only 6 X 6" papers in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  Many people love the 6 X 6" papers; they find them easier to cut into for some reason.  

  I decided to use them for last week Monday night's Stamp with Me video.  Here's a link to it on Facebook. 

  Save

  This is one of my favorite I made so far with this paper; I love the new Misty Moonlight in color.  Paired with Night of Navy and White is quite striking in my opinion.  Monochrome cards can be so soothing! 

  I also used the Small Bloom punch, 2020-22 In Color Enamel Dots and the Pick a Punch. 

  Measurements:

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    DSP 3 1/2" square and 1" X 3 1/2"
    CS layer 5" X 3 3/4"
    CS strip; textured 3/4" X 4 1/4"
    Greeting banner/punch

  Join me here on Monday evenings at 7:30 pm CT for Stamp with Me FB Lives and you'll get a ton of ideas and maybe even make a nice group of cards right along with me.
