Two-Tone Flora with Elegant Borders dies & a FREE project sheet!

March 24, 2023
In preparing my make & takes for my March Team meeting I knew I wanted to focus on the new Online Exclusives. I looked at the samples online for the Elegant Borders dies seen here and found this card made by Stampin' Up!'s artists:

Save

I decided to use the Two-Tone Floral bundle instead of the Pansies and came up with this card:

Save
Using samples from our printed catalog or online store can make stamping easier. Use a layout, technique or color combo as your inspiration. My colors include Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Soft Succulents and Poppy Parade.

Isn't that elegant border die gorgeous?! I also used to for the envelope flap edge. See the Elegant Border dies here.

Save
The upper and lower pieces of DSP are from the Pretty Prints; soon to retire from the Annual catalog. See it here.

Save

It includes some of my favorite colors – Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral and Evening Evergreen.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp the die-cut flowers and leaves from the Two-Tone Flora bundle. Be sure to watch the video to see how.

Download the project sheet.

Baby Wipe technique and the easiest Shaker Card ever! Tips for success & Video Tutorial

March 23, 2023
This card was cased from my good friend Susie Wood; creating comes naturally to her. She's fast and super talented. See her cute card here.

I used the Tropical Leaf bundle in the Online Exclusives section of our online store. I also wanted to feature the baby wipe technique.

Save

The colors include Parakeet Party, Bermuda Bay and a tiny bit of Granny Apple Green. The designer paper inside the clear envelope is Pretty Prints. Here's how I created the clear envelope shaker:

Save

My Pretty Prints designer paper layer is 5 1/4" X 4" and our clear envelopes are about 1/2" larger. For the shaker elements to stay on the front side of the envelope it has to be tight and smaller. So I added tear & tape to the back edge and folded the extra over tightly. Now, insert your shaker elements on the front pocket and fold down the end flap. Wallah! You have a shaker card front!

This DSP is from the Pretty Prints; soon to retire from the Annual catalog. See it here.

Save

It includes some of my favorite colors – Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral and Evening Evergreen.

The CS layers on the front are added on top of this shaker element so you still get the feel of a real card; not all slippery. Watch the video here or below to see how it's done. It's the 2nd project of 3.

Save

You can see this unique Tropical Leaf bundle here: The font of the greetings in this Tropical Leaf stamp set are so unique; love it!

Save

Now to create the baby wipe leaves I made my own ink pad with a folded baby wipe.

Tips for success of the baby wipe technique:
1. Fold a baby wipe into a thick layer; at least 4 layers thick. Make your 'pad' as large as your largest stamp image. Place it on a plate.
2. Drop multiple drops of each color of ink refill onto the baby wipe, leaving room between colors for another color.
3. I recommend at least 2 colors and up to 4 at the most.
4. Choosing colors? Find complimentary colors in similar shades – blues/greens, yellows/oranges, oranges/pinks etc.
5. Choosing stamps? Solid images work best; outline images will not show off your colors well.
6. Ink your stamp in the new colored pad by tapping up and down in the same approximate place. Traveling while inking may muddy your colors.
7. Huff on the image and stamp.
8. Depending on how much ink you added you can use your new 'ink pad' multiple times. Add more ink drops as needed.
Here's how the inside was stamped:

Products used:
- Tropical Leaf bundle
- Pretty Prints DSP
- Parakeet Party, Bermuda Bay and Granny Apple card stock and ink refills
- For Everything and Sparkle & Shine sequins (Annual Catalog)
- Clear envelopes (Annual Catalog)

- Bough Punch a big favorite!

Baby ‘Swipe’ Technique; two awesome examples!

March 22, 2023

Our Flowerbug's March swap theme was to use a technique featuring an ink refill. The projects were incredible!

Save

Today I'm featuring two cards using a technique called 'Baby Swipe'. What is it? It's where you roll up a baby wipe and drop ink refill liquid on the edge and use it to swipe across your paper. Super fun to try.

Candace chose to use the Irresistible Blooms bundle and the pretty Naturally Gilded specialty paper seen here. These items are on the Online Exclusives site and available for a limited time.

Save

Her colors include Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam and Flirty Flamingo. This specialty DSP works wonderfully for this because the surface is glossy. Once you're done adding ink use a tissue or soft cloth to wipe away the excess ink. It will not adhere to the foil areas.

She used Copper embossing powder on her flower, leaves and greeting. The texture is from the new Basics 3D embossing folder pack. These are currently out of stock but will be back in May or earlier.

~~~

Next is a gorgeous scenic card made by Brenda. She also chose to use one of the new Online Exclusive products; the Rhino Ready bundle.

She used the same embossing folder on the Cajun Craze layer and die-cut a window using the Diorama dies seen here. I think her scene is stunning!
Save

I believe her colors are Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Petal Pink for her sunset/baby swipe technique.

Those trees and rhino dies are all from the Rhino Ready bundle seen here.

Save

Below I demonstrate the baby 'wipe' technique. Click here or on the photo below to watch.
