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.  

Get the details on creating these techniques in the video below.

Remember I host Facebook Live videos 6 times a month!  Each Tuesday at 11 am Central Time and the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm CT.  Check them out here:

  • Sweet Songbirds is adorable on this cute card!


    We made this adorable card at my May card clubs; it features the Sweet Songbirds bundle and three new In Colors.

    The new colors include Tahitian Tide (turquoise), Parakeet Party (green) and Sweet Sorbet (red) along with Soft Suede.  

    I shot a video of the easy steps to create this card; I hope you watch it.  See it here or scroll down to watch it below. 

    That neat cloud border is created with the Basic Border dies seen here.  I love these dies!! 

    As you can see there are very few layers here; the stamped scene is all you need. 

    See the Sweet Songbird bundle here.  The bird & wing are stamped on a separate piece of White CS and punched out.  They're popped up as well as the sign (done on Sahara Sand CS).  

    Measurements:
    • Tahitian Tide card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • White front 5 1/4" X 4", inside is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2", scraps for bird punches
    • Sahara Sand scrap for hanging sign

    Here's the video for you; click on the photo below to watch.

  • Tea Boutique card with a pocket for a tea bag of gift card!


    Yesterday I shared the cute tea bag gift box below on the right.  Today I'll share details on the pretty card on the left.

    Both projects feature the Cup of Tea bundle and the Tea Boutique designer paper seen here.  

    The card is an easy fun fold where the card base is a quarter sheet of Fresh Freesia card stock.  The Garden Green piece is the part that opens and reveals the tea bag.  Of course the tea bag is optional and would work as a gift card holder also.  

    Here are the measurements:

    • Fresh Freesia card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”, & 3 X 3” square for tea
    • Garden Green 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”
    • Designer paper 3” X 5 ¼”
    • White inside 3” X 5 ¼”

  • Video tutorial for a Tea Bag gift box that holds 6 bags of tea!


    On last Tuesday's live I made projects with the Tea Boutique suite.  If you missed it click here for the video and click here to get to my Facebook page. Follow me and you'll get notified when I am Live.  

    This tea bag gift box is so cute!  It's about 3" X 4 1/2" and quite easy to make. I used the Cup of Tea bundle seen here for the stamped images and die-cuts. 

    The Tea Boutique designer series paper seen here includes all of our newest in colors so it's bright and colorful. I chose to use Parakeet Party for the main box and accents of Fresh Freesia, Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis.

    Here's a picture of the inside. There are two pieces of designer paper scored every 1/2" for the sides and card stock dividers between each fold for a tea bag.  

    I used a new punch called the Lasting Label punch for the top corner detail.  I share how in the video; you'll look at your punches in a whole new way!
