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.

  • Share a Milkshake card with video & free projects sheet!


    The Share a Milkshake bundle is SWEET and super fun to create with.  We made this fun card at my March card clubs: 

    You can see the Share a Milkshake bundle here; it's filled with cute 2-step images, quirky font greetings and fabulous dies.  See that straw in the ice cream?  It fits into a 'slit' in the die-cut ice cream piece. 

    *This bundle is carrying over into the new Annual catalog but it will not be a bundle at 10% off any longer; the stamp set & dies will be sold separately. 

     

    That bottom large die above folds into a textured sugar cone; you can then insert your 'scoops' of ice cream in it like the project below shared by Stampin' Up! 

    Here's what we stamped inside our card.  The 2-step bowl of ice cream with a die-cut silver spoon is extra special.

    My colors include Coastal Cabana, Sweet Sorbet and Polished Pink with a bit of Early Espresso for the chocolate topping die-cuts. the striped DSP on the bottom is from the Country Floral Lane DSP in the Spring catalog.   

    Here's the free project sheet for this project; it includes measurements, directions and supplies. Download March 23 Share a Milkshake

  • The Last Chance Sale starts Tuesday!! The Stamparatus is already low inventory!


    Tuesday starts our big Last Chance sale on both the Annual and Spring (January-April) catalogs.  However things are already selling out!  I wanted to give you a heads up on my favorite tool.  

    One of the biggest shocker on the retired lists is our Stamparatus seen here. It's already in low inventory! 

    I am SO SAD that it is retiring.  You may wonder why because it's an amazing stamping positioning tool.  There are some copyright & legal issues happening that is forcing Stampin' Up! to take it out of their product offerings. 


    This means the magnets, grid paper are leaving as well.  So if you don't have a Stamparatus yet; get one today!  And if you do, I suggest getting a set of magnets here while you can. They're half off starting Tuesday, April 4th.

    Here's a video showing you the benefits of a Stamparatus. 

    And here's another one below on hinge step stamping.
