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!

  • Want to make a Bay Window card? It’s easy! Stamp with Me Live tonight at 7:30 pm CT!


    Tonight on my Stamp with Me Live we're making 'Bay Window' cards.  These are so fun and actually quite simple to make.  Scroll down to see the measurements.  

    You can watch the video here on my Facebook page.  If you're not on FB you can see it later when I upload it to my YouTube channel here.  *Don't forget to follow me!

    It starts out with a standard 4 1/4" X 11" piece of card stock. Add some scored lines and designer paper and you're halfway there!  

    For this first example I chose to use the Plentiful Plants bundle.  The Bloom Where You're Planted designer paper is on sale in July. You can see it here.  

    I used the Everyday Label punch for the greetings here.  There's an easy way to create a curved edge and a perfect layer.  Watch tonight to see how.  

    Here's the second version I made with the Beauty of the Earth designer paper.  It's also on sale too!  

    I used the same stamp set; Plentiful Plants for the greeting.  I did add a few pieces of the In Good Taste DSP here for the wood paper.  It works so well for nature themed cards.  

    Here's the video!

    Bay Window Cards Measurements:

    • Card base – 4 1/4" x 11". Score on long side at 3/8", 1 7/8", 3 5/8", 5 1/8", 5 1/2"
    • 1st DSP – 4 1/8" x 6". Cut in order at 1 3/8", 1 5/8", 1 3/8", 1 5/8"
    • 2nd DSP – 3 strips at ¼” X 4 1/8”
    • White inside 34 1/8” X 3 ¼”

  • Make up to 24 great cards with this easy layout!


    I created 24 wonderful but super easy cards on this week's Facebook Live video.  I featured the same template but switched it from vertical to horizontal for each set of 12 cards.

    I chose to use the new Pattern Party host Designer Paper because of it's versatility and fun color combos.  You can see this paper here. 

    I kept these cards super simple but you could easily add more layers if you'd like.  Here's a close up of two of my favorites:

    Above is Crushed Curry card bases paired with the adorable Pattern Party black and white side of this fabulous Designer Paper.  I used both the Friends & Flowers and the Sunny Sentiments stamp sets here.  The flowers are colored in with Blends markers. 

    Here are all of the landscape cards; I love this stamp & punch bundle!  

    And next are all of the vertical cards.  I stamped the flower image from the Friends & Flowers on either White or colored card stock and colored them in with either Blends markers or Wink of Stella; or both!  Simply add a greeting strip and some rhinestones.  So easy!  


    The above set of cards is the exact same layout as the landscape cards; just flipped vertically!  I love the versatility of this design!  This is the same designer paper as well, but on the colorful side.  The reverse is all black & white patterns.  

    The images are from the Friends & Flowers stamp set.  The greeting strips are about 3/4" X 3". 

    Think how quickly you could make a stack of cards using this easy layout!  Below is the video to get my tips and see the cards better. 

    Remember that my perk for ordering over $50 in July is a stack of twenty 4" X 6" Designer Paper that includes at least 12 sheets of this Pattern Party DSP.  It's enough to make all 24 cards shown and more!  And the  more you order the more free Designer Paper you'll receive!
