NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them. 

Save

It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th.  The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White. 

There's a few special details I'd like to point out:

1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 
3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here.  You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.

Here's a close-up of this technique.

I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

I hope you'll try this easy but unique card layout!

• Last card in the Joseph’s Coat series with a video & free project sheet for each!

  August 13, 2025

  Here’s the last card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique this week.  You can see the video tutorial below.  

  Save

  It features the Textured Notes stamp set seen here.  I love this set! But I love the dies in the bundle even more.  See the bundle here. 

  I used two of our newest In Colors here – Secret Sea and Timid Tiger.  I love the fact that the Secret Sea matches the Cloud Cover card stock I used for the card base; when sponged lightly. 

  Both of these colors are part of the big In Color sale during August, 2025!  It includes card stock, inks, markers, designer papers, embellishments, kits and lots more!  Check out the many discounted products here. 

  If you’re wondering how to make this incredible colorful effect please watch the video below.  I also gave the step by step directions in this post.

• Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

  August 12, 2025

  Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video.  It’s so fun!

  Save

  My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling.  The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here. 

  Save

  This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors.  Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here).  The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!  

  Watch the video below to see how it’s done.  It’s super fun and such a cool effect.  

  I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges.  Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.
