Friends for Life card with free project sheet & video tutorial


On last week's video I shared two cards featuring the neat Friends for Life bundle and the Full of Life designer paper.  Here's the first card: 

I love the bright colors here! The colors are inspired by the Full of Life DSP – Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue & Daffodil Delight. There is a layer of Shaded Spruce under the White layer to show off the heart die-cut. 

This neat bundle is on sale in June; discounted by almost 20%. See the Friends for Life bundle here. 

Notice the heart die-cut from the front layer? I saved it and added it inside the card. 

I stamped the hearts on another part of the DSP and used the coordinating die to cut them out. The 'wishes' greeting is from the Perennial Postage dies seen here. 

I kept the layout quite simple because the DSP, die-cuts and stamping are the star here. I die-cut the heart from the White layer before I stamped for ease of time during the video. I stamped the 'BEST' greeting first and then added the vertical highlight image in different colors, stamping off first for a lighter hue. I love the effect!

Here's the free project sheet you can print or download: Download Friends for Life Best Wishes here

Below is the video for this card and another; both featuring this Full of Life suite. I hope you watch it to get the many tips I like to share in my videos.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you're there!

  • Blossoms in Bloom; puzzling it together?


    Here's an incredible card featuring the Blossoms in Bloom bundle made by my Flowerbug's team member Jacki for a new catalog card swap.

    I just love these colors together; Just Jade and Misty Moonlight.  

    Can you tell that she stamped the large floral image on her White CS using Misty Moonlight?  Then she added die-cut layers in White, Misty Moonlight and Just Jade.  Yes; she cut out three dies for each card and puzzle fit them over the stamped image!!!  Amazing, but stunning!

    I believe she cased this card from Pinterest; made by Mary Detherage.

  • Colorful Sunflowers the easy way!


    Marilyn made this pretty card with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set (seen here) for one of our latest Flowerbug's Team swaps.  I believe she found the idea on Pinterest.  I love how it features 4 of our new In Colors! 

    The card base is Bumblebee.  She added Black card stock and ink to pull the colors together.  Here is a tip: stamp the sunflower on 4 different colored squares and then cut them into smaller squares.  You'll get enough stamped pieces for 4 cards!

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White – 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Black 3 3/4" square
    • Just Jade, Magenta Madness, Cinnamon Cider and Bumblee – 3 1/2" squares for stamping. Then cut into 1 3/4" squares to puzzle piece on each card.

  • Window cards for tonight’s FB Live; stamp right along with me!


    Here are the cards for tonight's FB live projects.  Monday night's videos are designed for you to stamp right along with me.

    Gather some supplies, pre-cut your pieces and join me here at 7: 30 pm CT.  The measurements are below.

    For the card above I used the Flowers for Every Season designer paper and the Tasteful Labels dies.  There are two separate pieces of Misty Moonlight and White CS below the DSP panel.  The greeting is from the Lovely You stamp set. 

    I used the Lovely You stamp set in Magenta Madness and Just Jade.  That pretty texture is the Dainty Diamonds embossing folder. The window is made with the Label Me Lovely punch seen here. 

    I had to use my new favorite stamp set Forever Fern for this window card.  I stamped the same leaf image repeatedly in Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider and Crumb Cake.  Love blues and browns together!  The circle is a 2" punch and the pretty label die is the Tasteful Labels again. My favorite set of label dies now! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      Main window layer 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Layered piece 3 3/4" X 5" (the Magenta card has a tighter layer; 3 5/8" X 4 7/8")

    Use Designer paper, stamped or textured card stock and assorted dies or punches for your windows; layer them if you'd like.

    Supplies:

    • Punches – Label Me Lovely, 2" circle, Medium Daisy, Confetti Flowers Border punches
      Designer series paper – Flowers for Every Season
      Ink & Card stock – 2020 In colors, Crumb Cake & White
      Dies – Tasteful Labels
      Stamps – Forever Fern, Lovely You
      Other – jewels, embossing folder, dimensionals, sponge

     

    Join me tonight when I make these three cards!
