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:

  • Gorgeous color combo in this Impressions Abloom card


    Look at this pretty card made almost entirely of die-cuts! 

    I absolutely love these soft colors together!  Pretty in Pink with the new Cloud Cover & White. 

    Measurements:  

    • Card base is 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Pink textured layer is 4 1/4" X 2"
    • DSP strip 4 1/4" X 1/2" 
    • White arch is 3 1/4" X 4 1/2", pink greeting arch is 2 1/4" X 1"

    This pretty card is made with the Impressions Abloom bundle seen here.  

    Other products used are the Arches dies, the Mini Corrugated embossing folder and a thin strip of Florals in Bloom DSP too.

    Technique: I sponged the die-cut flowers with coordinating ink to add depth.  Two quick ways to add easy detail and depth to your projects is to use Stampin' Dimensionals and sponging.  It's amazing what sponging can add to your projects! 

    You can see many of the dies in this bundle in the photo below.  

    If you missed the last few project I made with this bundle scroll back a few days here on my blog.

  • A fun layout with the Impressions Abloom bundle; with free project sheet!


    I shared this striking card on last week's video.  It has a color combination I love! 

    The colors include Summer Splash, Strawberry Slush, White & Darling Duckling.  It features the Impressions Abloom bundle seen here.  

    I love the split view of the stamped panel. I did this by stamping first and cutting it into thirds afterwards.  It's simply 3 1/2" X 4 1/2", cut into 1 1/2" panels. 


    Here's a free project sheet for you to print or download.  Click on the following link: Download Impressons Abloom stacked card

    The Impressions Abloom bundle has it all; floral and greeting images with fabulous, coordinating dies.  I'll be sharing a another card made with it this week.  

    This stamp set is both a 2-step set and a distinktive style which means it gives multiple hues of color with one inking.  I've been loving this bundle! Between the flowers, greetings and dies it's a sure winner!  

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another; both using this wonderful bundle.  I hope you watch it; don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel too!
