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!

  • Annual HUGE Stamping Sale is Saturday!!


    Each year my customers and I host a HUGE crafting sale. We sell our excess product to make room for more; or to make money to buy more! 

    This year we have over 30 people participating and this is what is looks like!  Remember most but not all is Stampin' Up! but it is all paper crafting items.  

    This first picture is just a quarter of our 25 tables.  There's lots more inside and out. 

    It's in Minot, ND this Saturday, June 26th from 9-3 pm at 429 Cedon Drive.  People who shop at our sale are so happy with the deals they've gotten.  They never want to miss one.

    It's absolutely amazing and the selection and prices are crazy!  It's actually hard for me to see some of the Stampin' Up! products sell at these ridiculous prices.  But then again, what good does it do sitting on a shelf?!  

    Here are some photos of our set up this year: 





    If you live near me in Minot, ND I hope you can come.  If you don't, well I sincerely apologize for teasing you! 

    I hope you understand, but I cannot shop for anyone long distance.  There just isn't time as we are open for just a few hours & tear down immediately after the sale while everyone is there to help. It takes a lot of people for this sale to run smoothly. 

    *If you want to come next year we traditionally hold it the last week of June. 

    I am planning a BOGO the end of July and hope to offer my retired products online to everyone.

    My Team held a swap featuring Designer Paper and this is the card I created for it.  

    I loved the 'Inked Folder' technique so much I wanted to feature it on my card.  You can see how it's done in the video here.  And more examples featuring this Pretty Flowers embossing folder here.  

    This embossing folder is a free gift to anyone who places an online order over $50 in June. *See it here. 

    I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

    1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
    2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
    3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
    4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
    5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
    6. Repeat!   

    The Black & White striped Designer Paper is from the Pattern Party host pack seen here.  It's free with Hostess Rewards.  How do you get host rewards?  If your order is over $150 you earn free product and can choose from anything in the catalog including the items on pages 170-171 which are marked down just for host rewards!
