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.

    I think it's a fun layout and quick too.  I decided to use the designer paper from the Boho Indigo product medley.  I love these tones of blue!

  • Welcome cards made with scraps & Field & Flower DSP

    This week I've been sharing cards made with this beautiful Flower & Field DSP; it's free with any $50 order in February during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 

    I created a colorful group of cards for my new Team members last week.  I had a bunch of random pieces in the pack of Designer Paper and I decided to challenge myself to use mostly extras & just create! 

    Welcome Cards Field & Flower Save

    Look at the fun colors and layouts!  I grabbed my bags of scraps and a pile of White CS strips and just played.  Have you ever done this?

    This Flower & Field DSP (seen here) has so many different color combos in it; all with a Black background.  Honestly at first I wasn't sure I liked it. However I love to accent with black; it seems to make a card stand out beautifully.  Looking at these cards now I just love i

    This Designer Paper is free with any $50 order this month.  But it ends February 28th!  Plus you never know if they could run out.  So don't wait!

    If you have a nice size wish list I hope you'll consider purchasing the Stampin' Up! Starter kit.  It is such a great deal and no one on my Team has ever regretted it!  In fact most say they wish they'd done it sooner!

  • Field & Flower Mystery Card

    I am holding a mystery card challenge with me Team.  I send them a variety of pieces in a card base and challenge them to use them to create a card.  They can cut up or punch, or add anything to create an original card. 

    This week I'm sharing a few projects with the pretty Field & Flower DSP (seen here) from the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's currently free with any $50 order US.  

    Here is what I came up with for my Mystery card: 

    Field & Flower Mystery Save

    In their packet I added a White card base, a large piece of Flower & Field designer series paper, a strip of Bumblebee CS, punched Black & white pieces and some Bumblebee ribbon.  I decided to add a few stitched flowers from the Pierced Bloom dies (seen here).  Look at this amazing stitching!  

    Field & Flower Stitched Blooms Save

    The Black center is from the Perennial Petal dies (seen here) however. I love that cute die!  The greeting is from the Happy Thoughts stamp set. 

    To create this angled piece I started with a 4" X 4 1/4" piece of designer paper and just cut it in half on the diagonal.  It really doesn't matter what your angle is.  Then I added a strip of Bumblebee CS underneath the diagonal cut.  So easy!
