Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene


I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  I just love it!

The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities! 

Here's how I made it:

  1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).  
  2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
  3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS.  I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
  4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece. 
  5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side. 
  6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base. 
  7. Finish with Genial Gems.

  • A WOW card with Swirled Designs


    This is one of those cards you will not soon forget; the Swirled Designs bundle is so cool!

    See what I mean? The colors include Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce & White. Striking, bold colors for a celebratory card. The stars are die-cuts from the Swirled Designs dies.

    The Swirled Designs bundle was a sleeper; not many people have used it. But once you do…. you’ll want to use it over and over. See the stamp set here and the dies here. You can choose the bundle here, but the dies are discounted which makes it almost the same cost to order separately. It’s on the Last Chance list unfortunately; only available while supplies last.

    For the greetings I used the Reason to Celebrate stamp set. Wonderful and specific greeting images you will love. See it here.

    It’s a simple fun fold card where you score the front one extra time. I used the Garden Poetry DSP for the left side panel. That’s where I got the idea for my colors.

  • Gorgeous Petals of Beauty fun fold card with video


    This pretty card was a big favorite of my club gals in March.

    It features the Brushed with Beauty suite which includes many items that are now on the Last Chance list!
    The Petals of Beauty bundle was used mostly for the stamped images and die-cuts. See it here.

    My card base is Very Vanilla with the following additional colors: Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Darling Duckling.

    Look at the airy Vanilla flower petal die-cuts above. They are not meant to match which I love!

    You cannot tell but there is a window sheet sandwiched between the top and bottom layers. It adds a bit of surprise to the card. The rounded leaf die-cut is cut from the new Wood Grain Wonders 12 X 12″ specialty paper seen here. It has a very faint wood grain to each sheet in all wood tones. I added a bit of Mossy Meadow ink to the one on the right above.

    I added designer paper to the inside layers as well; all from the Brushed with Beauty DSP seen here.

  • Great cards made with the Celebration Expression Memories & More pack


    I hadn’t touched the Celebration Expression Memories & More cards yet; so I found an hour or so to create these:

    Aren’t they fun? These printed Memories & More cards come in both 4″ X 6″ and 3″ X 4″ cards. They are discounted and retiring! See them here. I did use the ‘Memories & More cards and envelopes’ as the card bases which made it super simple. These cards are a nice size – 4 1/4″ X 6 1/4″ which is larger than our traditional size. They are now in the last chance list and retiring soon!

    You’re likely wondering where the greetings came from. And I didn’t stamp a thing! Each of the greetings came from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. These are fabulous! They’re also discounted, in low inventory right now and will likely retire soon. See them here.

    I’ll share these cards in sets of 4 next:

    I did add a few layers of card stock on these cards to bring some solid backgrounds to the greetings. I also added some rhinestone gems & ribbons – Balmy Blue gingham, Timid Tiger 1/4″ and Bubble Bath 1/8″ ribbons.

    It was so much fun to simply play with the cards, layering them or adding CS strips here & there. What a perfect way to create without a lot of product. This would be perfect to take to a crop or crafty play day with friends.
