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.

  • October’s Christmas Cards Class; or choose the tutorial only.


    Last week was my first set of Christmas card classes and in 2 weeks will be the second set.  

    I always enjoy creating the cards for these classes.  It can be a challenge to keep them simple but striking!  Here's this month's set: 

    I chose to feature a few new stamp sets or bundles from the 2020 Holiday Catalog.

    From top left to bottom right:

    • Snow Wonder bundle in Misty Moonlight & black 
    • Poinsettia Petals bundle in Real Red & Mossy Meadow
    • Joyful Holiday with Gleaming Ornaments, Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce & Green Foil paper
    • Life is Beautiful in Early Espresso & Balmy Blue

    Class will be on both October 12th & 16th and we'll make 3 of each card with coordinating envelopes.

    If you're not local to Minot, ND you can purchase the pdf tutorial too. Check it out here to see this one and September's too.  These tutorials are great for personal use or for class projects too!
