• Stitched So Sweetly & Positive Thoughts

  January 13, 2020

  ---

  Yesterday I shared one version of this card and here is the other.  I had extra background pieces stamped so I tried something else.

  

  I used the same dies; but added the So Sentimental stamp set for the greeting above.  

  And here is the first version:  Which do you prefer?  This (above) or that (below)? 

  

  Here is the new So Sentimental bundle; my favorite bundle in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

• Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!

  January 10, 2020

  ---

  This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away!  Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards. 

  

  I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of. 

  

  This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration. 

  I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

  

  I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.

• Two ‘WOW’ technique cards with video

  January 9, 2020

  ---

  This week's Facebook Live video featured two 'over the top' technique cards.  I uploaded it on YouTube so everyone could see it whether you're on Facebook or not. (scroll down to see the video) 

  If you are on FB be sure to follow my page so you catch each week's video on Tuesday's at 11 am CT. Here's the link to my page: www.facebook.com/flowerbugsinkspot 

  

  The left card is a shaker card; they're very special and interactive. And not hard at all! Using Window sheets and our Foam Adhesive strips sure make it easy! I used the following products: (click on each one)

  • Peaceful Moments stamp set 
  • Detailed Hearts die
  • Stitched Be Mine dies
  • Peaceful Poppies sequins
  • Window Sheets
  • Foam Adhesive Strips
  • Peaceful Poppies designer paper

  The card on the right is stitched with our metallic thread; basically like string art.  If you like to cross stitch you will like this fun technique.  I timed it and it took me about 8 minutes to finish one heart.

  
  

  The Heart Doilies make it super simple.  I used these products on this card:

  • Heart to Heart stamp set
  • Heart Doilies
  • Silver or Rose metallic threads
  • Real Red 3/8" double-stitched satin ribbon
  • Heart Epoxy droplets 

  The greeting on the Valentine's card is from the Heart to Heart stamp set.  I chose to order this one because it's not just for Valentine's Day but it does includes the greeting.  That makes it very versatile to me.
