Gorgeous Rocker cards with a video tutorial & free project sheet!


Here's another special card I shared on last week's Live video. It's called a 'rocker card'. 

The pretty roses are from the Softly Stippled designer series paper – seen here in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. I fussy cut the roses on the upper circles and colored them with Pool Party ink and a Wink of Stella. I love coloring with my Wink of Stella as it adds a beautiful shimmer. Watch the video below to see how. 

It's made with our Deckled Circle dies seen here. There are a ton of them in the set – 14 sizes! They carried over from our Holiday catalog and can be seen online. 

For the card base I used the second from the largest die; it's almost 5 1/2" wide. Once you cut it, score it in half at 2 3/4". 

Of course you'll use the next size down for the front half layer and the inside.

I post at least two of these free tutorials each week!  I hope you'll subscribe to my blog. Go to the right side and click on 'get email updates'.  Then you won't miss a thing! 

The second sample was made with Calypso Coral & Pebbled Path. It seems like Pebbled Path is a perfectly beautiful color to pair most of our soft colors with. 

My greetings are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here. It's paired with a beautiful embossing folder and is free with any $100 purchase from Stampin' Up!.

  • Lots to Celebrate stamp set & fun card ideas


    I made time to play with the Lots to Celebrate stamp a few weeks ago and featured these cards on Tuesday's FB Live.  Remember that I host a weekly FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT here. Follow me so you don't miss any!

    This fun, versatile stamp set is my good friend Susie Wood's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set. She created it to coordinate with the Jar Punch.  Click here to see it online.  We've been stamping buddies for years since we met at my first Founder's Circle event and always hang out together at every SU event we can.  Click here to see her blog.  


    Aren't they fun?  I cased three cards she made and sent me and changed them up a bit; some more than others. 


    The colors above are Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry & Early Espresso.  That gorgeous designer paper is from the Plaid Tidings seen here. I used three punches here; the Fancy Tag Topper, the Jar punch and the Autumn Punch Pack. 


    Watch the video below to see her original cards and how I changed them.  Plus I show more of her creative cards too.

  • Look at this Amazing Gift!


    I received quite a wonderful surprise in the mail last week from Jakelle; a demonstrator in eastern North Dakota.  Look at what she made me!  

    It's a 5 X 7" board on an easel and her craftmanship is incredible! She used sooo many different dies & products to complete it. 

    • Tasteful Labels, Playful Alphabet & So Much Happy dies
    • Lovely Labels Pick a Punch
    • In Good Taste Designer Series Paper
    • Nothing's Better Than stamp set

    She sent this gorgeous card too, congratulating me on my Million Dollar in Sales achievement.  

    Isn't it beautiful?  She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and dies bundle and the In Good Taste DSP.  If you want to know how to make this Double-point fun fold card here's a link to a video I made.  

    I am so grateful for the fabulous friends I've made; both online and in person.  I would say I have the best job ever; but it doesn't feel like a job!  I'm loving it.  And like my stamp set says, Life is Beautiful!

  • Life is Beautiful Apple Tree; get the secret to easy apples!


    Here's one more card with my Life is Beautiful stamp set. We made this one at my August Card Clubs.  

    The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red.  See the tiny 'apples' on the tree?  Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image.  I dare you to try it!  Watch the video below to see what I did! 

    That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here.  There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set! 


    I'm so happy with all of the projects people are making with this stamp set!  It's been fun to see how much everyone seems to like it!  

    Measurements: 

    • Just Jade card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      Very Vanilla 4 3/8" X 3 1/8" die-cut
      Early Espresso 2" X 4 1/4"
      Real Red 1" X 5 1/2"
