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.

  • Stack & Cut cards with Dandy Designs & Something Fancy with PDF project sheet & template download!

    I LOVE the cards I'm sharing with you today!!  So much!  

    They're 'Stack & Cut' cards using an easy template I'll share below.  I created these for last week's Facebook Live.  The Dandy Design SAB designer paper features gorgeous color combinations like this one:

    Who would have thought Balmy Blue & Coastal Cabana would be so pretty together?!  I sure didn't.  But with the small prints and the addition of White & Pool Party it works beautifully. 

    Each set of cards feature this neat Dandy Designs designer paper seen here.  This huge pack of 48 12 X 12" sheets is free during Sale-a-Bration with any $100 purchase.

    For each of these sets of cards I also featured the Something Fancy bundle.  It's one of my top picks. See it here.  The greetings are great but the dies!  WOW; the tags and layers are perfect!  

    SOMETHING FANCY BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Add this bundle to your order and you're over half way towards getting the Dandy Designs paper pack free! All of these tags and greeting die-cuts are from these Something Fancy dies.  

    This next set is all pastels in Fresh Freesia & Petal Pink; another color combo I would never have put together.  But it works!

    You also might notice that each card is a fun fold.  Here are the measurements:

    • Horizontal cards – 4 1/4" X 11" card base, scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
    • Vertical cards 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 

    Below is the template I used.  I started out with 4 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  I cut two at a time using the measurements on the template.  Then I cut 4 pieces of card stock for the layer under the designer paper pieces.  It's so easy and a fabulous way to use up your designer paper AND get a bunch of cards done quickly.

  • Note my NEW YouTube channel, email address plus free project download!

    I've so much to do today that I'm posting a repeat project.  BUT, it's a huge favorite and if you haven't seen it or made one I'm sure you're going to add it to your list of projects in the future. 

    But first an update on my email and YouTube channel. 

    Last week my Google account was hijacked.  I lost some of my contacts, had to get a new email address (click here) and lost my YouTube channel and ALL of my 16,700 subscribers!  It's still a huge shock! 

    I have contacted Google and they may help me recover my channel.  Chances are low this will happen, but in the meantime I've created a new one.  PLEASE subscribe to it if you enjoy my videos.  Here's the link.

    Now I'll share this easy card folio project.

    It features the Good Feelings stamp set, the Hand-Penned petals stamp set, the Penned Flower dies, the Border Basics dies seen here, and the Contour Scalloped dies (front of folio).  

    We made it at a team meeting a few months ago.  I think it's a super cool way to gift cards to someone.  And it uses just one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock!  

    Here's what it looks like open and full of cards:
