Happy Birthday to You; a free stamp set!

January 15, 2020

Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet? The cake on a pedestal image is quite pretty and easy to color too.

And guess what?! They are releasing a set of die-cuts for this set next month! It includes 7 dies including one for the entire cake, just the flowers, a detailed pedestal and two sets of leaves. It will be for purchase; it's not part of Sale-a-Bration. There are 6 new items they'll release on February 4th that coordinate with items in the new Mini catalog and Sale-a-Bration catalog. I'll share more on that soon.

This pretty card has a bit of the Parisian Blossoms Designer Series Paper on the edge; it brings together the soft colors of Pool Party, Petal Pink and White. It's a bonus card for those who take my New Catalog stamp a stack class on January 25th.

That detailed scalloped rectangle is from my favorite new set of dies; Stitched So Sweetly. It's one of the best things in the new Mini Catalog!

I colored the cake with Blends markers in Petal Pink, Pool Party and Mint Macaron. The greeting is stamped in Smoky Slate. Note the addition of the Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon!

The Parisian Blossom DSP, Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon are all included in this month's Cards kit to go. Click here to get the details on it. Or message me at lagreff60@gmail.com

Here's a photo of all you get in the kit; $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards! All for $28 before shipping. You do need to RSVP by tomorrow, Thursday January 16th to receive it though!

‘Ornament’ Christmas cards for quick & easy card making!

November 28, 2022
We're making ornament cards on tonight's Stamp with Me Live. It's a quick & easy idea for your Christmas cards!

Save

The designer paper is the Santa Express seen here. It's filled with lots of great patterns; not just Santas & trains.

Join me here Live at 7:30 pm CT. The video will be on my YouTube channel by Tuesday, November 29th too.

I chose an 'easy' card so those who feel rushed in getting their Christmas cards made. Plus these cards use your DSP and an embossing folder too; both make a card special.

I added a Wonderful Snowflake to the designer paper circle for a quick, beautiful iridescent element. These snowflakes will be well discounted on Thursday with the Last Chance List seen here: Download 2022 Holiday Catalog Last Chance

Save

The greeting is from the Joyful Flurry stamp set.

Join me here when I share some tips on making these fun and easy cards tonight.
Gather these supplies:
- Card bases 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White or neutral background layer 3 3/4" X 5", will be textured
- Another layer 4" X 5 1/4"
- 'ornament' circles cut from DSP – mine are almost 3" around
- Silver or gold paper (or other) for the top of the ornament
- Twine or thin ribbon
Other items: Greeting stamps, ink, embossing folder, snowflakes

I made one card into an easy fun fold by folding the front of the card base back on itself. For this one I chose to add greetings from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set.

Save

The card base is Mint Macaron with White & Poppy Parade accents.

2 more fun fold card ideas for you; from the Flowerbugs!

November 24, 2022
Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday weekend and spend it with friends or maybe stamping!

We'll be with our kids in Fargo and besides enjoying our turkey dinner we'll be playing games, going to an escape room and I'll be addressing some Christmas cards too.

~~~

Here are more of our Flowerbug's Team swaps featuring fancy folds.

Candy made this 'book binding' card with the Kindest Gnomes; see it here.

Save
Measurements are:
- Cherry Cobbler card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
- DSP 1" X 4" on the 'binding', 1/2" X 4" strip across
- Evergreen layer 4" square
Save

Roxann made this amazing Diamond Fold card. She used the Splendid Day specialty designer paper from the 2022 Holiday Catalog; seen here.

Save

Her colors include Petal Pink &Soft Sea Foam. It's finished size is 5" square so it does not fit into a standard A2 size envelope.

Measurements:
- Card base 5" X 10". Score at 2 1/2" & 5". You'll find the upper center at 2 1/2" and make a mark. From the top, cut down on both sides to the first score line, removing those upper corners.
- Then make a mark from the bottom up on each side at the 7 1/2" mark. Cut from the bottom center; also at 2 1/2", and cut to the 7 1/2" mark, removing the bottom outer corners.
- Soft Sea Foam squares are 3 1/4"
- Designer paper squares are 3"
Maybe someday I'll create one of these and share how it's done. It's a neat card!

Save

I sure have some talented Team Members, don't I? They always impress me with their creativity, colors and ingenuity.
