Eden’s Garden & Forever Fern; a fun way to use the Picture This dies


Monday evening I created projects with the Forever Fern bundle for my weekly Tuesday Facebook Live. But by the next morning the Forever Fern stamp set was sold out; gone.  So I had to switch gears a bit and decided to substitute Forever Fern with Eden's Garden. I think it turned out lovely!  

See the Eden's Garden set here.  It was $22 and is now just $9.20, while supplies last.  

There are dies to match called the Eden dies seen here. They were $35 and are now just $14. 

I used all retiring inks and card stock – Bermuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry & Pear Pizzazz.  I had to focus on my Bermuda Bay; I'll sure miss this color!  The card stock, ink and refill are already sold out.  

I wanted to feature the Picture This dies too; I honestly love these dies and use both the full windows die-cut and the stitched label pieces left over. Each side is stitched! They're perfect for greeting labels. This 2 piece set of dies is now $27.20; it was $34.  See them here.

Measurements:

  • Bermuda Bay card base 8 ½” X 5"
  • White die-cut piece is 3 ¾” X 5”, White stamped piece is 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
  • Rich Razzleberry 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”

Below you can see the Forever Fern card on the left and the Eden's Garden card on the right.  

I think the color combination is beautiful.  I'll sure miss these colors!  

Below are the three cards I shared on the video.  I think the Forever Fern stamp set is one of the most gorgeous set of stamps Stampin' Up! has ever made. The distinktive quality of the images gives a true multi-hued effect; it's my very favorite type of stamp.  I'm sorry it retired and that it's already sold out.  You can get it in French still…..


Things are flying off the shelves on the retiring Last Chance Sale.  Thank you to all who have placed orders with me this week!  I sure appreciate it!!!

Here's the video I shared how to make the window card with the Picture This dies.  Plus two other cool projects using up card stock strips! Click on the photo below.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

  • Pretty Pumpkin projects in out of the box colors with Video too!


    On Tuesday's FB Live I featured the Pretty Pumpkins bundle in out of the box colors.  I was inspired by the white pumpkins that are trendy now and by a card made by Deb Crowley.  

    Isn't it gorgeous?  The colors are Pool Party, Olive & Smoky Slate. I stamped the pumpkins in Smoky Slate onto White Basic card stock and colored them in with our Watercolor Pencils seen here.  A Blender pen is the magic tool when using watercolor pencils!  Watch the video below to see how.  

    I stamped the greeting directly onto the die-cut stitched rectangle using Smoky Slate ink.  It's cut from In Good Taste designer paper.  I used a blending brush to add a bit of Coastal Cabana ink behind the die-cut pumpkins. 

    Next is another pretty card in Smoky Slate, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana and Rose Gold.  This pretty specialty paper is in our Annual Catalog on page 134 seen here.  It's also my free gift for orders in October! *see details below

    These pumpkin and leaf die-cuts are in the Detailed Pumpkin dies seen here.  *Save 10% when you purchase the bundle – stamp set & dies. I did fussy cut the greeting after stamping it. The embossing folder is called Brick Wall.  

    Look at this pretty & quick treats box.  It's one of our 3 1/8" square Acetate boxes seen in the annual catalog here.  You get 10 boxes for $6.  Inside can hold either treats or 3 X 3 cards & envelopes.

    I added a 2" X 9" belly band of Coastal Cabana card stock, a few pumpkin die-cuts, a wrap of Gold 3/8" shimmer ribbon and a fussy cut greeting.  

    Did you know we carry 3" square envelopes in the Annual Catalog? Check out page 136. They're perfect for little note cards and they fit in this box too!  

    You might wonder where you get 3 X 3" cards….   I made them from a piece of 12 X 12" card stock. It's the best size CS to start with. You'll get 8 small cards from one sheet with no waste!  Watch my tip on this in the video below. 

    I think these cards would be great at each place setting on the Thanksgiving table!  Think white pumpkins, autumn colored leaves & turquoise ribbon or accents.  Mmm – I think I have a plan! 

    And here is the video; click on the image below to watch it.
