Free-form waves using the Floating Technique


We made this gorgeous 'wave' card at a Team meeting last month.  I used the Waves of Inspiration bundle and a Blending Brush for the sky. 

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and White.  See those gorgeous gems?  They're called Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels and there are 168 in a package for just $6.50!  See them here. 

I had a bunch of curvy foil pieces left over after die-cutting a bunch of these waves from the two blue colors in the Blue Foil paper seen here.  I challenged myself to use them and came up with a free-form wave using the Floating Technique.  

I adhered various die-cut foil pieces to a Window Sheet using Multipurpose liquid glue and added them to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.  This take a bit of patience as you can imagine!    

Here are some tips to achieve this:

  • It's best if you start at the bottom and add just a few pieces. Let it set to dry. 
  • Adding a weight over them while they dry helps keep them flat. The foil likes to curl up.
  • Next form the top of the wave.  I used one of the long curved pieces for this.  
  • Add just a few pieces at a time and let them dry.  They slide easily!
  • Fill in the center of the wave a few at a time. Again, add weight over it all to set & dry.  
  • Trim off the sides of the Window sheet at 4" to fit the White layer. I fussy cut the top to match the foil wave.  
  • I adhered it to the textured 'Bark 3D' White 4" X 5 1/4" piece of CS with mini dimensionals.  

This card is part of my Waves of Inspiration tutorial and video with 11 projects!  This is available to anyone who purchases the Waves of the Ocean Collection from me or purchases my Waves of Inspiration kit to go.

  • Pick of the Patch cards with Abundant Beauty masks & video


    I made these pretty fall cards on last week's Live video. I share a Live video on my Facebook page here each Tuesday at 11am CT. 

    I love the multi-colored background!

    I used three colors of ink and the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks on the leafy background.  Garden Green, Pumpkin Pie and a bit of Wild Wheat.  

    I textured the Garden Green layer with the Basics 3D embossing folder (online Exclusive seen here).  The zig-zag is from the Basic Borders dies.  

    I used the same decorative mask to add some detail to the inside of the card too. Watch the video below to see my tips on multiple inks and masks.  

    I am so glad we have a Pumpkin builder punch in!  It has two sizes of pumpkins and a stem and leaf; all coordinates with the Pick of the Patch stamp set. These products go live for customers Wednesday, September 6th!

  • Autumn Leaves card with free project sheet; great layout for 6 X 6″ designer paper


    I created about 25 of these pretty cards for a recent online swap. We also made it at a Team Meeting in August.  

    My colors include Pretty Peacock, Pumpkin Pie, Lost Lagoon, Copper and Very Vanilla.  I used the new Autumn Leaves bundle from the upcoming Holiday Catalog.  It goes live for customers on September 6th.  

    You might wonder how I achieved the two tone leaf. I inked the leaf in Pumpkin Pie ink and rubbed off the edges a bit.  Then I added Pretty Peacock ink to the edges of the stamp with a sponge dauber, huffed and stamped.  

    Here's the inside: 

    These products go live to customers on Wednesday, September 6th.  Is the Autumn Leaves bundle or the All About Autumn designer paper on your list?
