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!

  • Stamp & Cut Emboss Machine is now available!


    It's here and available for everyone!  The brand new die-cutting machine that is.  

    I've been using mine and I love it!  They said it would cut dies with one pass through and it really does!  Even intricate dies!  I love the portability of it and how compact it is for storage.  

    I'm super excited to get the new Magnetic plate!  Did you know it's super thin, replacing a cutting plate and it's self-healing!?!!  

    Thin, fully magnetic sheet with self-healing cutting surface. Te Magnetic Cutting Plate holds dies securely in place, even nested dies. This slim, portable sheet replaces a Cutting Plate in your sandwich, making it even easier to take with you. It's recommended to use with the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine but I will try it in my Big Shot and let you know if it works.

    Did you know you can get this machine at 10% off?  Just add it to your Starter kit!  It's just $99 and you can add up to $125 in products. This machine costs $120.  Go here to do that.

  • Nothing’s Better Than fun fold card with video!


    We made this CUTE card at my August Card Clubs with the Nothing's Better Than bundle seen here.  

    It's a triple flap gate-fold card!  It's super easy to make and fun to open too.  Check out the measurements AND the video below. Be sure to read the front AND the inside below. This stamp set is just plain FUN! 

    I chose to use Early Espresso with Coastal Cabana and Crushed Curry. To get a lighter hue for the chocolate and cookies images I stamped off the Early Espresso ink first.  Is it just me or do some of these images remind you of the Jetsons cartoon show? 

    Measurements:

    – Early Espresso 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end
    – Whisper White 1 1/2" X 3 3/4" (3 pieces) plus scraps for added die-cut images
    – Coastal Cabana & Crushed Curry 1 5/8" X 3 7/8" (3 total pieces)

    The Nothing's Better Than stamp set has a set of dies to coordinate with it; get them both and get 10% off.
