Lights of Aurora scenic card with project sheet & video tutorial

October 13, 2025

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video:

It features the Lights of Aurora suite seen here. I made sure to cute my designer paper at 3″ wide so I could get 2 pieces from each 6″ piece. We made this pretty card at my September card clubs.

Besides the DSP & colors (Balmy Blue & Pool Party) do you notice another difference? Look at the ribbon; I tried a new technique of rolling the Balmy Blue sheer ribbon on the left card. Something different!

Another time saving tip for this card is that I could die-cut two sets of trees at the same time with the extra long die in the bundle seen here:

These sentiments & die-cut are from the Peace on Earth bundle; the leaves are from the Textured Notes set.

Tip; add balance to your card by placing the main layers off to one side and the greeting on the other.
This suite has been really popular with my customers. It’s something special & unique we’ve never had before. See it here.

Biggest Wish in a Beautiful Color Combination

June 22, 2021
Here's a pretty card with a soft & soothing color combination made for an online swap.

Save

The colors include our new Fresh Freesia with Pool Party. What do you think of it?

I featured quite a few new products on this simple card. Here's the list:
1. Biggest Wishes stamp set seen here.
2. Iconic Dies for the feathers; seen here.
3. Hello & Thanks embossing folders seen here.
4. Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack seen here.
The polka dot paper is from the Pattern Party host paper pack on page 171 of your catalog. It's can only be earned with host benefits. It's just one of the choices in the Host Rewards but my favorite by far. It's 48 big sheets of 12 X 12" Designer Paper. One side is colors & patterns and the other is Black & White.

The greeting label is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies seen here. I colored our white Pearl jewels to match with the Fresh Freesia Blends marker.

Bamboo Beauty & the Ink Swipe Technique

June 21, 2021
I created this striking card for a swap I participated in with some of my Demonstrator leader friends. I wanted to highlight the beautiful Bamboo Beauty stamp set.

Save

I decided to create a bold background effect by swiping ink pads directly across my Basic White CS. Each one turned out totally different!

Save

I chose to use these colors from top to bottom – Pale Papaya, Mango Melody, Flirty Flamingo & Calypso Coral. Depending on how well inked your pads are you can get a variety of hues. After I swiped the darker colors I used the Pale Papaya over it all to blend and soften the colors together.

Save

My measurements for this card are as follows:
- So Saffron card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
- White (before swiping) 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
- Black 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
I hope you try this technique; it's so fun! I shared this technique using glossy paper in a video a few years ago. Here's a link to it.
