In the Country; which do you prefer? ‘Color’ or Black & White? Video & cool tip!


Happy Valentine's Day!  

I should be sharing a Valentine card today, but I sent them out to my family last week before I took photos! Sheesh! Here's one by Stampin' Up! using the Love for You bundle; you can see it on page 11 of the Spring Catalog.

  

Here are a few more cards featuring the In the Country stamp set from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's free with any $50 purchase in February.  See it here. 

I shared multiple ways to use this set and options for coloring too.  I know many people do not want to color every bit of a scene like this. So I shared a variety of alternate card ideas like this one shown here.  

On the colored version above I simply used my Blending Brushes with Granny Apple Green & Balmy Blue.  Simple but effective.  After coloring I cut the scene out with a Stitched Rectangle die.  I used the 5th from the largest for the scene and the 2nd from the largest for the outside of the White layer. 

Here's another set of cards.  I used Blending Brushes for most of the color – Balmy Blue & Sahara Sand. I did add a bit of Dark Calypso Coral to a few areas with a Blends marker.  

The greetings are from the Sending Support stamp set.  This set can be seen here and is also free with a $50 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February of 2023.  

For the greeting die-cut I used a die from the Potted Succulents dies seen here.  I changed the size of this die by cutting it once and then again to make it shorter.  I get a lot more use of my dies this way!

Which do you prefer?  Color or no color?

  • Window cards!


    A few weeks ago on my weekly 'Stamp with Me' Live we made window cards.  I called them that because I punched or die-cut a window in the front to reveal the greeting below.  Here's one version:

    I chose to use the pretty Flowers for Every Season designer paper for this card. There is such a wide variety of patterns, colors and styles in this pretty paper!  For the card above I used the Tasteful Labels, the Medium Daisy punch and the Lovely You stamp set.

    Here are all three cards I made to get them started.  I post the cards, measurements and supplies list a few days before the 'Live' so they can prep and gather their supplies.  Or if they cannot stamp with me Live, they can just make the cards using my ideas.  Check it out here. 

    For the card below I used the Forever Fern stamp set in Cinnamon Cider, Misty Moonlight and Crumb Cake.  

    I punched a 2" circle from the White layer and added a die-cut from the Tasteful Labels dies. 

    Here's the video below:

  • Third card from the Boho Indigo Product Medley


    This is the last card in the trio we made with the Boho Indigo Product Medley.  

    Almost everything is from the Product Medley except the punched flowers (Confetti Flowers Border punch) and Stitched Nested Labels. 

    The vase is stamped in Misty Moonlight and die-cut with the Boho dies in the Medley. The leaves are stamped in Pear Pizzazz. 

    The little flowers are punched from a piece of Designer Paper in the medley and the centers are added with a Chalk Marker. They're curled up a bit with a stylus.

    Measurements:

    • Misty Moonlight card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Designer Paper 2" X 4 1/4"
    • Pear Pizzazz strip 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • White & Navy CS for Stitched Nested Labels

    Here are all of the cards we made with the pretty Boho Indigo Product Medley. You can see them all by paging through my blog posts the last few days. 

    The Boho Indigo Product Medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold. 

    If you purchase this Medley in July you'll earn a $5 coupon code to redeem in August. Yay for Bonus Days!!

    There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon).  It is on back order until mid July but still orderable.  It includes the papers and the flowers.  See that here.
