I really did play with the ‘Playing with Patterns’! Check out the video!

I had a lot of fun mixing up the patterns in this super cute designer paper on a Facebook Live video.  *See it below. 

First is a play on triangles. These pieces are just 3/4" wide X 3" long! What a fun way to use your scraps!!

Cut 6 pieces of Designer Paper at 3/4" X 3" and then cut each one from one corner to the opposite one.  Now you can piece these together on a contrasting piece of card stock measuring 4" X 5 1/4".  Be sure to watch the video below to see how it's done.  

The greeting circle is from the Painted Label dies and the greeting is from the Pattern Play stamp set.  See the entire suite of Playing with Patterns products here. 

Next is a fun card where you cut narrow strips of designer paper and piece them onto a background sheet.  Just offset them slightly to create a 'Bargello' look. This is a quilting technique perfect for striped paper!

Which one is your favorite?  The colors are Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy.

I like the one below as the Bargello look is more apparent with the dark Navy strips.   The greeting dies are from one of my favorites; the Stitched So Sweetly dies in the annual catalog seen here.

  • A SMART way to use your 6 X 6″ paper with this neat fun fold card; video too!

    On yesterday's FB Live I shared three unique fun fold cards.  See that video here on my YouTube channel.  Be sure to subscribe too!

    I chose to feature the Butterfly Kisses 6" DSP in the 2022 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up! It's filled with bright colors & fun prints with printed butterflies you can cut out! 

    It coordinates with the Build a Butterfly dies and the Best Butterfly Bundle seen here. 

    I chose to use Starry Sky with White & Parakeet Party for my main colors.  The 'pull out' tag for the front is from the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here.

  • Blessings of Home & Flowers of Home dies projects

    Look at this pretty card I made on last week's Facebook Live. 

    Blessings of Home Aug Save

    Lots of pretty details on this card:

    • Blessings of Home stamp set & Flowers of Home dies for the leaves
    • I used watercolor pencils & blender pen to color the floral image
    • the gold honeycomb sheet is from the Sweet Sunflower Paper Pumpkin kit; it was a free gift add on
    • I used the gold honeycomb sheet to add a pretty, blended background using Balmy Blue ink & a Blending Brush

    Blessings of Home Aug Save

    The Flowers of Home dies are in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog but also available free with a $100 Stampin' Up! order during Sale-a-Bration.  See them here. This option ends on Wednesday, August 30th.  See all of the Sale-a-Bration options here. 

    The stamp set & dies are available in a bundle too.

    BLESSINGS OF HOME BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I made a second card using mostly the Flowers of Home dies.

    I cased the card from Sue Mohr; I thought it was simply elegant way to create a 'wreath' around the oval sentiment.  

    The oval dies are from the Fabulous Frames dies seen here.  When you cut out the oval it creates both the frame and the inside; two pieces with one die! 

    I textured the White layer with the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.  It's so pretty and works perfectly with these flower & leaves die-cuts.

    The colors I used are Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, Polished Pink and Fresh Freesia.  

    Tip; when adding these delicate die-cuts use just a tiny but of Multipurpose Liquid glue.

    Remember that these Flowers of Home dies are free with any $100 order through Wednesday, August 31st.  Sale-a-Bration ends that day.
