Gorgeously Made with a neat background technique & video tutorial


I shared this card as part of my Tuesday Live video last week.  I was featuring the Gorgeously Made bundle.  Check out the background! 

I focused on creating a pretty, textured background under the main image. Here are the steps:

  1. I first stamped the foliage image with Boho Blue ink onto Boho Blue card stock.
  2. Next I textured it with the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here. (It's one of my favorite folders.)
  3. Lastly I dragged my White Craft ink pad over the texture. Tip: use a very light touch or ensure your ink pad is a little bit dry. I LOVE the look of this so much!  

I used the same foliage image for the inside of the card as I did the pretty background, stamping once in full strength Boho Blue ink and stamping again without reinking.  

I stamped the other large leafy image from the Gorgeously Made set on the Countryside Corners white die-cut. I added the print image a few times in second generation Boho Blue ink (this means stamped off once). It's layered on a Navy die-cut before adding to the card base.  

The greeting is heat embossed on Navy using White embossing powder. The die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies – my go-to dies for greetings. 

There's just something special about a monochromatic card; this time in blues.  If you're going for an elegant or cohesive look try using just one color in varying hues.  Greens, blues and browns are some of my favorite choices.  

Click here or on the photo below to watch the video.  It's the first project featured; the other is a super fun 'fancy fold' card.

  • Delightful Wishes fun fold card swap


    Look at this beautiful card Paula made for last month's card swap. The theme was to use circles. 

    She used the Floral Delight suite (seen here) which includes the following products:

    • Delightful Wishes bundle seen here
    • Floral Delight DSP
    • Bees Trinkets *unavailable right now 
    • Floral & Gingham Vellum

    It's a super neat fun fold with two opening flaps. 

    Here are the measurements:

    • card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". Cut off the upper left flap diagonally. 
    • second flap 8 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 4 1/4"
    • two pieces of DSP 5 1/4" X 4", one cut in half diagonally. 
    • Crushed Curry CS 4" X 3"
    • inside White 4" X 3"

    Some of my favorite things about this card are the circle greetings, the die-cut vellum flowers, the little bees and the bright & springy colors.  Thanks for creating this incredible card Paula!
