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.

  • Note my NEW YouTube channel, email address plus free project download!


    I've so much to do today that I'm posting a repeat project.  BUT, it's a huge favorite and if you haven't seen it or made one I'm sure you're going to add it to your list of projects in the future. 

    But first an update on my email and YouTube channel. 

    Last week my Google account was hijacked.  I lost some of my contacts, had to get a new email address (click here) and lost my YouTube channel and ALL of my 16,700 subscribers!  It's still a huge shock! 

    I have contacted Google and they may help me recover my channel.  Chances are low this will happen, but in the meantime I've created a new one.  PLEASE subscribe to it if you enjoy my videos.  Here's the link.  

    Now I'll share this easy card folio project. 

    It features the Good Feelings stamp set, the Hand-Penned petals stamp set, the Penned Flower dies, the Border Basics dies seen here, and the Contour Scalloped dies (front of folio).  

    We made it at a team meeting a few months ago.  I think it's a super cool way to gift cards to someone.  And it uses just one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock!  

    Here's what it looks like open and full of cards: 

    Here's the free project tutorial for this neat gift project.  Download Good Feelings card folio here.  

    This is the front view.  The colors include Calypso Coral,  Petal Pink, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen.
