Gorgeous ways to add color to the Quiet Reflection stamp; with video & free project sheet


Today I'm sharing one of the projects I featured on last week's Live video.  I chose to showcase the Quiet Reflection stamp set and ways you can add color to the solid image. 

You can see this stamp set online here.  It's not retiring; it will return in the new Annual Catalog.  It's a beautiful sympathy set. 

I chose to use Starry Sky with Shaded Spruce. The dies are the Thoughtful Expressions dies and sadly they are already out of stock; they were on the retiring list and they've sold out.  

Notice the two toned image here.  This one is simply a matter of inking in Blue and stamping. Then ink a sponge dauber in green ink and dab over the stamped image.  So easy! 

I do have a free project sheet with the directions, measurements & supplies list.  See it here.  Download Quiet Reflection 2-toned

In the video posted here on YouTube you can see how I made this card and another with an entirely different way to achieve a 2-toned image.  I'll share the card on the right below tomorrow.

  • We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!


    On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

    These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

    Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!  

    Here's the template for the explosion card. 

    Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.

    These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy! 

    Join me here on the 2nd & 4th Mondays at 7:30 pm Central Time.  You can either watch or prep your pieces to create right along with me!

  • Mini Coffee Carriers; a special gift with treats & glue stands!


    Have you noticed the mini coffee carriers on page 9 of the Holiday catalog? They're actually quite large and should not be called mini!  You can see the entire suite here. 

    My friend Marilyn made this one for me; casing the catalog project on page 10.  It's so cool! 

    She used the Heartwarming Hugs and Wrapped in Christmas stamp set.  She wrapped her coffee cups with Real Red CS. Tip; use strong adhesive like Tear & Tape for this. 

    Here's another version. I made these for my Flowerbug's Team that attended OnStage@Home a few weeks ago.  It was filled with treats, apple cider packet and a liquid glue stand that we make *see photo below

    I actually sprayed my coffee cups with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and Real Red ink refill.  

    Here are the Multipurpose Glue stands included in the gift above. We have them available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each.
