What is a ‘Live Edge’ card? Check it out and the video tutorial too


You may have heard of 'Live Edge' tables; but have you ever heard of a 'live edge' card?  Well that's what I'm calling this technique! 

I stamped the sweet dragonfly repeatedly along the right edge of my White card base.  I twisted the image each time and made sure they were touching or very close to each other. After stamping I fussy cut the edge off from the dragonflies. I think it took less than a minute to trim. I think it's well worth the effort!  

The Happiest Day stamp set is adorable; I love the whimsical dragonflies and the bold greetings. Having two separate images for the wings means you can change up the colors for 2-toned results.  See the set here.

Here's how I stamped the inside: 

Products used:

  • Happiest Day stamp set
  • Inks – Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo, Memento Black
  • Other – Something Fancy dies, Paper Snips, Iridescent striped ribbon, Full of Life DSP

I love the way the colors fade from top to bottom mimicking the Full of Life Designer Series Paper.  I achieved this with just 3 colors of ink, but stamping off for a few of them. 

Do you ever stamp off to get a lighter hue of ink? Sometimes it's the perfect shade!

Check out the video below; I share one more unique card with an easy addition of glimmer strips and a few other ideas as well.

  • Darling Donkey’s Birthday card


    The Darling Donkey's stamp set (seen here) is one of the most popular sets in our Sale-a-Bration promotion right now.  So I chose to use it for my card clubs in January.  We made this cute but easy card: 

    The colors are Pool Party, So Saffron and Black.  That cute designer paper is called Flower & Field and is also from our Sale-a-Bration promotion that runs through February.  See it here. 

    Both are free with any $50 order!  I love Sale-a-Bration where we can earn free items with an order.  

    Sale-a-Bration traditionally runs through March. But this year it's one month short because they're offering another one in July & August!! So we actually get an extra month this year!  

    The inside is stamped with the third Sale-a-Bration choice called Approaching Perfection. See it here.  It has lots of fun birthday greetings! 


    You can watch the video for this quick card below.  

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • So Saffron 2" X 4 1/4"
    • Flower & Field DSP 3" X 5 1/2"
    • White die-cut 2 1/2" X 4" 

    I used the Balloon Bouquet punch with this DSP for a quick accent.  I glued the Black & White twine down with liquid Multipurpose Glue.  The donkey is colored in with Blends markers.

  • Striking cards with Pretty Perennials with True Love DSP


    If the True Love designer paper hasn't caught your eye yet look at these cards:  

    I paired it with the Pretty Perennials stamp and dies bundle for a recent FB Live.  I used Bermuda Bay, Real Red and black. Simple Stamping at it's best!  No die-cuts or punches either!  Sometimes it's fun to just stamp and layer.  

    You can see the measurements below. I try to share the printed list in my videos so they're easy to jot down.

    Lastly here's the stepped-up card I made using heat embossing and the Perennial Petal dies.  See the Pretty Perennial bundle here.

    I also used our new Blending Brushes to add color to the white flowers.  Love these so much! 

    Measurements are below and you can watch the FB Live replay video below: 

    I think cards featuring black and White with a pop of color are so striking and stand out.  What do you think?
