How to create a beautiful scene with the Peaceful Pier set; a free project sheet & video tutorial


I shared a video tutorial on how to create this gorgeous scene last week.  

I used the Peaceful Pier stamp set, inks and blending brushes.  

I first stamped the dock and tree images using Black Memento ink. Then added a few more 'grass' images at the bottom. Next you add ink with Blending Brushes.  I used Lost Lagoon for the water, Granny Apple Green for the grass, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight for the sky. 

I did color the dock and trees with Blends markers. I did not need to mask anything. As long as you're adding ink lightly with the Blending Brushes you shouldn't need to.  

After I was finished adding color I used the Textured Notes dies to cut my image into 2 pieces. Ad added the frame to a Black CS layer and added the center with Stampin' Dimensionals.  I love the dimension this gives to the card scene.

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes.  I hope you watch it!

  • Diamond Gatefold fun fold card with Season of Green & Gold specialty paper – video too!


    On last week's Live video I created this beautiful fun fold card. It shows off both sides of our double sided designer paper beautifully! 

    I chose to feature the stunning Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper seen here online.  It's filled with shades of green with gold foil accents and is part of our Online product line.

    I cased my friend Susie Wood who made the card on the left below: 

    She used the Regal Flora designer paper in Cherry Cobbler with Blackberry Bliss. So very pretty!  Find more projects by my talented friend from Iowa here on her blog. 

    I love this neat fold!

    Details:

    • The pretty gold die-cut is from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.
    • The greeting is from the Something Fancy stamp set seen here
    • The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Forest dies seen here

    Look at the extra details inside too. Wedding cards are fun because you can go over the top a bit! This gorgeous card will be given to my youngest son who's getting married this week.  I'm so thrilled for him and his fiance'. We're excited to welcome her into our family! 

    It used a pieces of designer paper measuring 12" X 5 1/4" that is adhered to a card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".  It's scored at 2", 4", 8" and 10". Then the corners are folded down. Here's the simple template I drew:

    Stampin' Up! knows we love scenic designer series paper and they created another winner with the Splendid Autumn DSP. I chose to feature it for one of my September card kits to go. 

    Each of the cards are a unique fun fold layout. I chose these designs specifically to show off the pretty papers. 

    I offer both a pre-cut kit with products or the PDF tutorial option.  Both include the tutorial and now an unlisted video on how to assemble each card!  The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase from my shop. The video link is emailed to you soon after.  The pre-cut card kit is mailed out at the end of September.

    This month's kit to go includes the following:

    • 1/2 pkg Splendid Autumn 6" Designer Series Paper
    • a share of Faux Glass gems and woven gold leaves
    • a share of Wild Wheat rustic ribbon
    • both the PDF tutorial and the video tutorial

    Click here to purchase the card kit to go for $31 plus shipping. Click here to get the PDF tutorial for $16.  *see all of the available kits or tutorials here. 

    *this is the kit my subscribers will receive.   Subscribe here if you're interested in receiving a card kit filled with both products AND a pre-cut card kit.  My subscribers get their kits at a reduced rate.

    I used the Layering Leaves stamp set for my greetings. I LOVE it; it's a go-to for an all occasions greeting set. 

    However you can substitute any greetings instead.  I specifically plan my cards kits so you only need greeting images; not a specific stamp set.

    *I'll share the other new kit for September tomorrow!
