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: 

This video is from a few weeks ago and the card kits mentioned are sold out. The pdf tutorials are still available however. Click here to see them.

  • Fancy Easel Fold card with the Arrange a Wreath bundle


    We made this fancy fold card at October card clubs. The Easel really shows off the wreath from the Arrange a Wreath bundle in the Annual catalog. You can see it in the video below. 

     
    You can see the Arrange a Wreath bundle here.  It has a ton of seasonal options in it. 
     
     
    Measurements:
    • 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4" first. Then cut on one half of the card at 3/4" from each edge to the score line. Now score the large, center area for the easel in half at 2 1/8"

  • Curvy Christmas; paired with the Curvy Dies


    I've always loved the look of curves and swirls so these new Curvy Celebrations products are right up my alley.  I've made so many projects I could share one each day for weeks! 

    Here's one of my favorites.

    See what I mean?  The curves make this project 'stand out' special.

    My colors are Night of Navy, Sahara Sand and White.  The designer paper is from the new Classic Christmas 6 X 6" pack seen here.  This is only available through January 4th or while supplies last.  

    The same is true for the Curvy Christmas stamp set seen here.  It will not be in the upcoming catalog so get it now while you can. 

    As you can see I cut two pieces of Navy card stock using the dotted curved die.  I heat embossed the greeting and the long stars image.  I die-cut two White sprigs from the same Curvy Dies and added them with a double Linen Thread bow.  

    Here's another great reason to get any of these items now; everyone who places an online order (or orders any of the Curvy Celebrations items) will receive a free 22 project PDF full of ideas for their new products! 

    I chose to get it all at once with the entire Curvy Celebrations bundle seen here.  

    Here are some sneak peaks of the projects in the free PDF: 

    Above are ideas featuring the Quite Curvy set and below are projects with the Curvy Christmas set.

  • Curvy Celebration ideas!


    Here are a few more projects I made with the Curvy Celebrations products. 

    Above is a super simple card made by cutting just one piece of Cinnamon Cider card stock in half with one of the Curvy dies.  Separate them on the Vanilla card and add a curvy greeting.  Finish with a few punched leaves from the Beautiful Autumn punch bundle. 

    On this card I added the White curvy die-cut layer to a piece of Artistry Blooms designer paper and finished it with a few Blossom punches and Artistry Blooms sequins.  Easy!

    The card above features my strips technique I shared here in this video.  So fun and a great way to use scraps of Designer Paper! 

    Here's another great reason to get any of these items now; everyone who places an online order (or orders any of the Curvy Celebrations items) will receive a free 22 project PDF full of ideas for their new products!
