Happy Birthday to You; a free stamp set!


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!

You can see these products in my online store by clicking on the photos below.  If you are reading this in an email you won't see the photos.  You'll need to click on the title of this blog post to get to my actual blog.  Then you'll see everything!

  • Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!


    Each month my Flowerbug's Team has a featured 'Artist of the Month'.  For June, Marilyn chose to use the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  

    She made 5 projects and I'm showing the first three here: 

    Her card base is Orchid Oasis and the flowers are stamped in Orchid, Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.  The flower centers and leaves are separate images so it's easy to have multiple colors on your flowers.  

    She layered the two 'Sending' dies using our awesome Adhesive Sheets; no glue mess!  The Birthday Wishes greeting is heat embossed and die-cut with one of the long dies in the bundle.  The background texture is the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  

    ~~~

    Next is a simple card with just a few layers using Fresh Freesia and Parakeet Party.  


    I love the stamped background she did using Versamark.  The White layer is textured with the Painted Texture folder.  The Brass Butterflies are the perfect finishing touch!  

    Her measurements are 2 7/8" X 3 7/8" for the White and 3" X 4" for the Parakeet Party. 

    ~~~

    Next is a fun fold card featuring the new hostess paper pack called Design a Daydream.  Anyone can get this with hostess benefits if the order is over $150. 

    Here's a tip on making this diagonal fun fold card.  Cut your card base at 4 1/4" X 11" and score it at 5 1/2".  Now with your card base laying flat and horizontally, cut off the upper left half of this card base on a diagonal.  You'll add the layers of card stock and DSP to that but flip it before adhering it to the main card.  

    She used the Layering Circles dies for her greeting.  I love that you can personalize your greetings with so many options.  This was one of my top 3 sets in the new Annual Catalog.  In fact it was one of the ideas I shared with Stampin' Up! for my Million Dollar stamp set!  

    There are 22 stamps in the set and 14 dies!

  • How to make a forest of trees from the Wisteria Wishes stamp set!


    I thought the flower image in the Wisteria Wishes stamp set would make wonderful trees. So I played around and here's the finished card: 

    I chose to use just one ink color of Evening Evergreen. I made this card in the video below; or click here to see it. 

    Tips on creating the trees:

    • Starting at the bottom with the 3 flower image (turned point side up) stamp in full strength Evening Evergreen ink making sure you stamp some images higher and some lower.  Ink every time filling in the very bottom fully.
    • Now ink the same image and stamp off once before stamping slightly higher than the first 'trees'.  
    • Now ink the image again and stamp off twice before stamping even higher making sure you alter the height now & then.  
    • Wallah; you've created a forest of trees!  

    Did you know that Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent are a perfect color combination?  Stamping off once or twice can give you almost an exact Soft Succulent color tone.  

    You could make a bunch of these cards quickly and they're perfect for any occasion but to me they'd be great sympathy or men's cards. 

    Here are the other two cards I made with this bundle.  It was super fun to play with!

  • Wisteria Wishes with the new Split Card Textures dies; with video!


     

    Today I'm sharing another card featuring the Wisteria Wishes bundle.  I paired it with the Split Card Textures dies seen here:  

    I have to say that I think it's gorgeous!  The Split Card Textures dies are an easy & unique addition to your card projects.  There are two dies in this set; you can see them here.  

    **Get both the Wisteria Wishes bundle and the Split Card Texture dies today

    and you'll get your shipping FREE! 

    My colors are Starry Sky, Old Olive and White.  I cut two sets of Wisteria with the Wisteria Dies and trimmed the smaller one a bit shorter. Then I sponged them with Starry Sky ink on the edges.  I adhered them together with bits of Stampin' Dimensionals for lift.  

    I stamped the greeting in Old Olive directly on the White CS and the leaves are stamped & die-cut. 

    I wanted a fuller bow so I split the Old Olive twill ribbon into two long pieces and tied together in a bow. 

    The photo below includes the measurements. 

    Below are all of the cards I made on the video.
