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.  

COUNTRYSIDE CORNERS DIES Save

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.

  • Fruit Salad fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

    I shared this cute card on last week's Live video.  It features the colorful Fruit Salad 6 X 6" DSP from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with any $60 purchase.

    I chose to highlight the red fruits in the Fruit Salad DSP along with a bit of Daffodil Delight or Granny Apple Green.  I absolutely love how our projects coordinate so perfectly!  This paper is free during Sale-a-Bration. 

    FRUIT SALAD 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    The greeting is from the Mixed Labels Online Exclusive stamp set. I love the sentiments and have used them a lot. And the coordinating dies are awesome!

    It's an easy fun fold card that has an extra fold on the right. Fold it back towards the center and add a coordinating strip of DSP to show off our double-sided papers!  I love this quick & easy fun fold and how well it makes good use of your designer paper.  I hope you save it and give it a try.
