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.

  • Power of Hope meets Peacock Foil

    For our February Flowerbug's Team swap we chose to do a swap featuring Sale-a-Bration cards.  They are all fantastic!  Over the top wonderful.  I cannot wait to share them all with you.  

    Here's the one I made using the Power of Hope bundle seen here.  It's one of the free items you receive with purchase during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from now through March 31st; or while supplies last.  I do suspect this will sell out before March is over.

    I textured the Noble Peacock Foil (seen here) with the Stone embossing folder from this bundle.  Adding texture to this pretty foil brings it over the top! I also added a layer of vellum and a few flags of Peacock foil.  It comes in 6 single-sided sheets of 12 X 12" foil paper. 2 each of 3 colors: Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, Pretty Peacock.  There are Noble Peacock rhinestones that match this paper perfectly.

  • Seriously the Best Cards with Golden Honey Folio gift pouch & video

    I made this gorgeous cards & folio pouch project two weeks ago on Facebook Live.  Join me each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Follow my FB page here. 

    Seriously the Best folio Save

    I chose to use the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Paper for my color inspiration.  It's Black, White with Gold foil accents. Measurements and details are below.

    As you can see I made a few cards with just black, white and gold. Then I added color on the other with Melon Mambo & used just the black and white DSP.  You can add any of your favorite colors to this pretty paper; Black and White is just the beginning!

    Here are the measurements for the folio pouch and cards.

    • Folio is 8 1/2" X 11".  Score on the long side at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4". Score on the short side at 6 1/2".
    • DSP on the front is 4 1/2" X 5 3/4" and the white layer is 4 5/8" X 6" 
    • Cards measure 4 1/4" X 9"; scored at 5 1/2". DSP is 3 1/4" X 4" and 1 7/8" X 4".
