Fragrant Forest & Countryside Corners in a fun fold layout with video

December 15, 2023

I've been sharing my Fragrant Forest projects from last week's Live; this is the third one. I have a video below to watch plus free project sheets for each card too. See this stamp set here.

I chose a simple color combo of White & Pretty Peacock. The designer paper on the upper flap is the Hello, Irresistible from our Online Exclusives line.

The die-cuts are the Countryside Corners from the Annual catalog; seen here. Can you see the raised lines on the inside white? I used my Simply Scored 1/4" from each edge.

I couldn't decide if I like the clean look of the card on the lower right or the added forest on the lower left card. Which do you prefer?

Here's the inside view of the upper left card. I used the Lasting Joy stamp set for my greeting and sentiments. I find I'm reaching for this one often. See it here.

You might wonder just how I achieved inking only the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the left card above. Watch the video here.

I cut my stamp apart!

Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile! And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp. Try it!

September 11, 2020

I made time to play with the Lots to Celebrate stamp a few weeks ago and featured these cards on Tuesday's FB Live. Remember that I host a weekly FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT here. Follow me so you don't miss any!

This fun, versatile stamp set is my good friend Susie Wood's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set. She created it to coordinate with the Jar Punch. Click here to see it online. We've been stamping buddies for years since we met at my first Founder's Circle event and always hang out together at every SU event we can. Click here to see her blog.

Aren't they fun? I cased three cards she made and sent me and changed them up a bit; some more than others.

The colors above are Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry & Early Espresso. That gorgeous designer paper is from the Plaid Tidings seen here. I used three punches here; the Fancy Tag Topper, the Jar punch and the Autumn Punch Pack.

Watch the video below to see her original cards and how I changed them. Plus I show more of her creative cards too.

Look at this Amazing Gift!

September 10, 2020
I received quite a wonderful surprise in the mail last week from Jakelle; a demonstrator in eastern North Dakota. Look at what she made me!

Save

It's a 5 X 7" board on an easel and her craftmanship is incredible! She used sooo many different dies & products to complete it.
- Tasteful Labels, Playful Alphabet & So Much Happy dies
- Lovely Labels Pick a Punch
- In Good Taste Designer Series Paper
- Nothing's Better Than stamp set
Save

She sent this gorgeous card too, congratulating me on my Million Dollar in Sales achievement.

Save

Isn't it beautiful? She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and dies bundle and the In Good Taste DSP. If you want to know how to make this Double-point fun fold card here's a link to a video I made.

I am so grateful for the fabulous friends I've made; both online and in person. I would say I have the best job ever; but it doesn't feel like a job! I'm loving it. And like my stamp set says, Life is Beautiful!

Life is Beautiful Apple Tree; get the secret to easy apples!

September 9, 2020
Here's one more card with my Life is Beautiful stamp set. We made this one at my August Card Clubs.

Save

The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red. See the tiny 'apples' on the tree? Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image. I dare you to try it! Watch the video below to see what I did!

That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here. There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set!

Save

I'm so happy with all of the projects people are making with this stamp set! It's been fun to see how much everyone seems to like it!

Measurements:
- Just Jade card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  Very Vanilla 4 3/8" X 3 1/8" die-cut
  Early Espresso 2" X 4 1/4"
  Real Red 1" X 5 1/2"
