  • Black & White with a POP of color & ALL fun folds for my 2nd July card kit to go; or choose the tutorial only option

    I'm always drawn to Black & White patterned paper because it's such a fun start to creating.  Black & White with a 'pop' of color are usually quite striking, eye-catching cards and these are no exception! 

    Each one is a unique fun fold design with great pops of color too.

    I chose to use the Biggest Wish stamp set for my greetings but you can substitute any set you own.  Or add it on to the kit at an extra 10% off.  

    Here's how it works:

    The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free.  It's the best deal. 

    You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Perfectly Penciled DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Iridescent Pearls and 1/8" Tahitian Tide ribbon.  You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards!  The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces.  It does not include textured embossing. 

    The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions. I have just a few of these left.  See all of my kits here

  • Get a 2 toned leaf with Watercolor Pencils with the Soft Seedlings stamp set

    Here's another card I shared on this week's FB Live video.  I continued with the same color scheme of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam. Who knew these colors would be so pretty together!? 


    Soft Seedlings 3 Save

    I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set (seen here) from the new Holiday catalog along with the FREE cards & envelopes from our newest Sale-a-Bration line.  

    I inked and stamped the main leaf image in Soft Sea Foam directly onto the Soft Sea Foam card stock.  Then I used a watercolor pencil from the Assortment 2 package to highlight the leaf with the blue/green hue.  Afterwards I blended it with my Wink of Stella pen.

  • Soft Seedlings with the new Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes

    On yesterday's FB Live I shared 3 cards featuring the new Soft Seedlings stamp set.  The first two featured the new FREE Sale-a-Bration cards & envelopes too.

    You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned look of the leaf. I stamped it first in Soft Sea Foam and removed a bit of the ink on the edges with a sponge dauber.  Then I added Pool Party ink to those same areas. Huff and stamp!   Watch the video here to see how it's done. 

    There is a vellum leaf on the stamped leaf for both texture and shimmer.  I sponged the punched leaf (Bough punch), sponged a bit of color and curled the leaves.  Lastly I added Wink of Stella to both leaves for a pretty shimmer effect.

    I trimmed off 1" along the bottom edge of the card base and adhered it to the inside. 

    Then I cut a white scalloped edge using the Contour Scalloped dies.  I textured the 1 1/4" Pool Party card stock strip with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder seen here.  I LOVE this folder!  I attached the embossed layer to the scalloped White trim and then adhered to the card front.

    The 'hello' is stamped on a die-cut from the Tea Cup dies and added over two bows; one with Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon and another with White twine.
