Butterfly wobble & Bokeh technique with video!


I'm excited to share one of my March Club cards with you.  This background is called the Bokeh technique. 

Sponging a background is a big favorite of mine and when you add the Bokeh technique to it you get magic! I created my own dotted mask by punching a bunch of circles from a piece of card stock.  

We made these cards at my March card clubs and they loved it!  I used the Vine Design stamp set as well as the Happy Thoughts set; both are retiring and on the Last Chance list here.  

Measurements:

  • Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    White sponged layer 3 3/4" X 5"
    White layer (under sponged layer) 3 7/8" X 5 1/8"
    White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    White greeting strip 1/2" X 5"

I used Pretty Peacock, Pacific Point & Magenta Madness inks as well as the White Craft ink pad for the light colored dots.  You can see the video below.  It's so easy and amazing!

The butterflies are created with the new Brilliant Wing dies seen here. They'll be in the upcoming Annual catalog but are available now too. 

Here is the video; I hope you watch it.  This technique is so fun and unique every single time!  Think of the colors you could use!

  • 3 sets of quick Stack & Cute cards; with video & template!


    One week ago I shared my Stack & Cut cards in a FB live video.  I couldn't stop at one set since they're so quick & easy.  I made 3 different sets of cards!  Click here to watch the video. 

    Follow me on FB here; so you can watch my weekly videos. 

    This first set features the Hues of Happiness designer paper from the upcoming new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  It goes live tomorrow and you can all start ordering (collecting) new products!  

    The card bases are Pool Party and the large layer is Highland Heather.  I used a variety of circle dies for the main greeting.  The stitched banners are from a new set of dies called Stylish Shapes; it's filled with stitched circles, squares and banners.  

    Here's the template I used for the 'Stack & Cut' pieces.  Choose 4 sheets of DSP and cut two at once.  They're layered on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece then added to your main card base.  So quick & easy and it uses up that Designer Paper you're hoarding!  

    The 2nd set of cards features the Tea Boutique designer paper.  It's a 6 X 6" stack filled with all of the new In Colors!  The greeting is from the Good Feelings stamp set.  

    The colors include Sweet Sorbet and Starry Sky.  

    Here are all of them in one photo.  If you make a set of these cards please share them here in my FB group by May 8th to get in on Prize Patrol for a free embellishment.  I'd love to see YOUR version of these neat cards.  

    And lastly here is the first set I made with the Heart & Home DSP from the January-June catalog. This paper is filled with soft prints and a variety of whitewashed wood on each sheet.  The colors include Pale Papaya, Garden Green White & Smoky Slate.  The greetings are from the Blessings of Home bundle; which is carrying over into the new Annual Catalog.
