A Stunning fall card with Gorgeous Garden; with a video tutorial and free project sheet!

October 4, 2023

Check out this fabulous, colorful autumn card we made at my September card clubs!

We added fall colors to the die-cut using Blending brushes.

This die-cut is in the Gorgeous Garden dies seen here. This is the leaves die and there is also a floral option as shown below.

If you're interested in these dies now is a great time to purchase them. Add on another item or two and you'll qualify to receive a Mystery Box from me! *see details below

The card base is Vanilla as well as the die-cut. Ink colors include: Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wheat.

We started with the two darkest colors – Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive, adding a few splotches of color leaving many open areas for the remaining two colors. I prefer to add the lightest color of Wild Wheat last, so it can fill in any open areas without covering up the previous colors.

Watch the video here or scroll down to see it below.

The stamps & leaf die-cuts are from the Autumn Leaves bundle seen here. It's a big favorite of mine this season.

The die-cut is almost the entire card front except for a thin edge. I added a strip of Cherry Cobbler to the left side. The greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tags die-cut. The leaves are from both foil and Oxidized Copper papers. *The Oxidized Copper paper is back in stock!

Rainbow of Happiness shaker card with video tutorial

January 28, 2022

I played with the Rainbow of Happiness bundle on Facebook Live earlier this week. Here's a neat shaker card I made:

Shaker cards look difficult but they're fun AND easy! Watch the video below to see how it's done.

The Rainbow of Happiness bundle is 10% off in our Spring catalog. See it here. I just noticed it's on low inventory. That means when they run our it will not be available again until the product is restocked. That Global Shipping issue you know!!

It's hard to see in the photo above but the paper inside the shaker is our Rainbow Glimmer specialty paper from the annual catalog. I share a neat trick to get these rainbow die-cuts in place in the video below or click here.

Here's a close up of another:

Here are some details:
- The large rainbow is made with the Brilliant Rainbow dies – it's part of the Rainbow of Happiness bundle.
- The small clouds are die-cut from our Supple Shimmer paper & the Rainbow dies
- The sequins & beads in the shaker are from the Sparkle & Shine sequins
- I used our Foam Adhesive strips on the back side of the White die-cut piece to raise it and keep the shaker pieces in place.
- The large clouds are punched with our new Cloud Punch. One is punched from the Sunshine & Rainbows free DSP during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here.

The card above on the left has a cloud bank made with our Border Basic dies and our new Supple Shimmer paper. Stampin' Up! is terrific at coordinating their products so incredibly.

The shaker card is the first project I make in the video below. Click on it to watch!

Grassy Grove dies make amazing cards quickly! Video too!

January 27, 2022

I was inspired to use the Grassy Grove bundle for a January card club project because of this card made by Deloris; one of my Flowerbug's Team members.

Save

See what I mean? It's striking & stunning! She used Blackberry Bliss and that background is the amazing New Horizon 6 X 6" DSP seen here. Her greeting is stamped on a stitched rectangle die-cut on Fresh Freesia CS.

Save

I changed the colors but still kept the large die-cut and the pretty paper the star of the card.

Save

The die-cut is Black, cut at 5 1/8" X 3 7/8". The New Horizons paper is cut just a hair smaller. We simply added two of the deer in the Grassy Grove dies and a greeting on an Oval punched piece.

Scroll down to see the video I made or click here.

The card bases were either Soft Succulent or Misty Moonlight as that coordinated with most of the designer paper scenes.
Save

Here is what the inside looks like. We stamped the trees in the Grassy Grove stamp set in Black and added a greeting. This greeting is part of the Special Moments stamp set seen here (free during our Sale-a-Bration promo now)

Save

Here are three of the cards all together. See how the New Horizons designer paper can change the background scene so easily? Everyone thought these made perfect masculine cards and sympathy cards as well.
