Pretty Friends for Life card with video tutorial & free project sheet


Here's the 2nd card I made during last week's video with the Friends for Life bundle. 

My colors include Berry Burst, Pumpkin Pie and White. I've always loved pink & orange together for some reason. The white circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. They are in low inventory right now.

Isn't this Full of Life designer paper stunning?! 

The pretty designer paper can be seen here. 

There are two 'friend' die-cuts. One layers over the other.  I cut the larger layer from the designer paper – it's an ombre effect.

During the video I shared a second card as well.  I had a great time creating with this bundle. There are so many options between the stamps & dies.  See the Friends for Life bundle here. It was $53 and is now $47. 

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!

  • Stunning Prairie Grass sunset scene with a masked moon & video tutorial


    I'm thrilled to share this amazing card with you today.  We made it at my July card clubs. 

    I created a beautiful sunset with stamps, ink and a 'moon mask'.  I used Blending Brushes with Secret Sea, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger inks.  

    It features the beautiful Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Since I'm from North Dakota where we have tons of 'prairie' this set was a must have!  *Unfortunately it is now out of stock but you can add your email to be informed when it's available. It should be back around August 11th. 

    After stamping the grassy image we added a post-it note mask made from a circle punch. Then we blended the inks on little by little.  It's important to use less ink and more time to get this pretty soft effect. 

    See the flap on the left side of the card above?  That flap holds down the front of the card.  So simple but a fun technique. Notice the light sponging on the greeting inside?  

    I created a free project sheet for this card.  You can print or download it by clicking on the following link: Download Prarie Grass July 2025

    And here's the video below where I share how to create this gorgeous card and two other cards featuring this amazing Prairie Grass stamp set.

  • Gorgeous Prairie Grass Joy Fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video.  

    Isn't it pretty?  The colors include Fresh Freesia with Black accents. All of my projects featured the brand new Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  

    I also used the amazing Thoughtful Journey DSP seen here.  It's absolutely perfect for scene builder stamps like this one and has some of the best and easiest backgrounds to start with.  

    This card is called a 'Joy Fold' – who knows why but it's actually one fold name I haven't forgotten. Basically it has two flaps that overlap each other. It gives you multiple opportunities to use your Designer Papers or textured layers.  

    The embossing folder here is called Glass & Gardens seen here.  It's unavailable right now but you can add yourself to the list to be notified when it's back in stock.  

    Here's the free project sheet for this card with measurements, directions and supplies.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Prairie Grass JoyFold card

    And here's the video below where I share two other cards featuring this amazing Prairie Grass stamp set.

  • WOW! Check out this Beautiful Butterflies stained glass technique


    I was amazed by Candy's card swap this month!  Look at this beauty!!

     

    It's called the Stained Glass technique and she made it for our July Team swap featuring Window Sheets.  

    Her colors include Pretty Peacock with Highland Heather. The bundle is called Beautiful Butterflies and can be seen here. 

    Steps:

    • She stamped the butterfly image on a window sheet using Black Stazon ink. 
    • Turn it over and color with Blends markers. 
    • Add adhesive sheet to the Blends side. Press onto slightly crinkled aluminum foil. 
    • Adhere to a second butterfly stamped on White CS for support and to cover the foil. 
    • Fussy cut; add to card. 

    Other products used here:
