Gorgeous Wintery Encircled in Nature card with video tutorial

This is the other card I shared on my weekly Live video last week.  It's one of my favorites this season. There's something elegant about a mostly white card.  

Save

I added bits of Pretty Peacock in ink and glimmer paper.  The extra White layer is textured with the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder and then I lightly added ink with a Blending Brush. I stamped the trees image plus added a die-cut of the Glimmer Trees. The curvy leaves die and sprig are also part of the dies in the Encircled in Nature bundle seen here.

• Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold card

  May 25, 2021

  ---

  Finally I can share this beautiful fun fold card we made at my May Card Clubs!  

  I like to wait until after all of my Clubs are held so I can surprise them with the cards we're making.  I'm not sure why; it's just a habit now after many years of doing it that way!  

  I chose to use the Beauty of Friendship bundle (seen here) to make this unique 'Latch fold'. 

  Save

  I chose to use a few of our new In Colors; So Succulent & Evening Evergreen along with Pool party.  It sure created a pretty, almost monochromatic card.  Everyone sure loved it; which is always my goal!

  Save

  This fold is very deceiving but so simple!  Just a little trick at the end to put it all together.  Watch the video below! 

  Save

  Download the Beauty of Friendship latch fold card project sheet or use these measurements:

  • Pool Party 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 3 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 2 3/4" along the 3 1/4" side

• Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video

  May 24, 2021

  ---

  I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest.  I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

  Save

  The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month. 

  Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle.  This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.  

  Save

  I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion.  There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words.  My favorite is 'Happy Mail'.  Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying?  It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.  

  Save

  For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set. 

  Save

  
  I made a quick video on putting this card together.  You can see it below.

• Pretty is the word for the Hand Penned suite!

  May 21, 2021

  ---

  This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite.  I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents. 

  Save

  That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen here on page 131 of the new Annual catalog.  It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June. 

  Save

  I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.  Click here to see the bundle.

  The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.
