March 4, 2020

Here are three of the cards I shared in the FB video. These photos do not do them justice! The colors are Silver, White, Petal Pink and Rose Gold. The greetings are all from the Rare Blessings stamp set seen here.

I made a pretty stitched frame with the Stitched Rectangles dies and Silver Foil paper. Added a greeting and a fussy cut flower from the Flowering Foils paper. I sponged it with Petal Pink ink for a bit of soft color.

Check out this 'One Sheet Box' made from one 12 X 12" sheet of Designer paper! It's a really nice size; big enough to hold quite a few cookies inside it.

Score the 12 x 12 paper at 3″ and 9 inches
Rotate paper and score at 1″, 3 1/2″, 6 1/2″ and 9 inches. You can watch the video below to see it made.

Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

October 26, 2021
I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs. It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.

Save

The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?' It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'.

Details:
- The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
- The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers.
- That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration.
- The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut
Save

Measurements:
- Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
  • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
  • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
  • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

And here's the video!

October 25, 2021
We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'. It's at 7:30 pm CT here.

It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured.

For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog.

Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.

There’s so much you can do with the Merriest Moments bundle!

October 22, 2021

On this week's FB Live I featured the Merriest Moments bundle seen here – a beautiful bundle that includes a Hybrid embossing folder. This type of folder enables you to die-cut AND emboss at the same time!

Save

However it's important to only use the large outline die inside your Hybrid folder. Do not use the detailed die. You can use that after or before you emboss.

Look at these gorgeous cards in Evening Evergreen, White, Red & Just Jade.

Save

This next card really shows off the stunning die-cut & texture as well as the pretty holiday greeting. That cute baby poinsettia is made from our Red velvet paper and the dies in this bundle. The colors are Evening Evergreen, White and Red.

Save

The set of cards below have a window die-cut in the Thick White card base after texturing. I did run the front back through the Hybrid embossing folder again after I cut the window because it flattened a bit when die-cut. *This is shown in the video below or click here.

I added just a few die-cuts and the greeting to finish them. Simple yet beautiful!

Save

Next is a gorgeous card we made at my October Card Clubs. The pretty die-cut has been sponged with ink before or after it's embossed with the Hybrid embossing folder. Either way works fine.

Save

I chose an unlikely combo of Old Olive & Just Jade. Who knew they'd be so beautiful together?!

See this amazing bundle here in my store.

Save

Below is the video where I show how to make most of these cards. I hope you watch it and get inspired to create yourself!
