Masked Blending Technique; join me Live tonight!


Happy New Year!!!

~~~

Tonight I'm sharing the Masked Blending technique on FB Live.  It's at 7:30 pm here on FB.  It will also be shared on my YouTube channel afterwards.  

Each month (usually on the last Monday) I host a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page.  I post the project ahead of time so those who want to can prepare and create along with me.  

Tonight we're playing with masking & blending brushes to create cards like these:  

I chose to use long post-it notes to 'mask' off the area I want to add color to.  I used Coastal Cabana ink and our Blending Brushes.  You can get an incredibly smooth look with these brushes.  I'll share my favorite tips on using them in the video.  

The stamp sets are all new in either the upcoming Spring or Sale-a-Bration catalogs. These catalogs go live on January 5th. 

The card below is made with the Beautifully Happy stamp set.  It's a 2-step set with 17 stamps in it.  It's free with a $100 order from January 5 – February 28th. 

My colors include Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape & Fresh Freesia. 


I did stamp the large flower an extra time and fussy cut it so I could pop it up for added dimension.  

Join me on Facebook here tonight at 7:30 pm CT or watch it later on my YouTube Channel here.

  • Fun Swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team with Sneak Peaks from the Holiday catalog


    Today I'm sharing two swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  I love seeing their style & creativity!

    Karen made this fun fold card using the Bunches of Fun stamp set seen here. 

    Her colors are Black, White & Crushed Curry.  She also used a fun technique called Paper Piecing.  She stamped the gal onto Pattern Party DSP and fussy cut the dress out.  Love this!!  

    See that texture on the large Crushed Curry layer?  That's a sneak peak from the upcoming Holiday catalog.  It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder.  

    Measurements:

    • Black – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2", 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • Crushed Curry 4" X 5 1/4", 2 3/4" X 4"
    • White 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"

    Next is another Sneak Peak card made by Lori.  She used the new Penguin Place bundle in the Holiday catalog.  It includes a cute Penguin punch!  

    She added a layer of White to her Balmy Blue card base and torn the upper edge. She added a bit of Wink of Stella to the torn area for snow.  A super fun winter birthday card!

    I am excited to share this card swap Candace made for our July 'use yellow' theme for my Flowerbug's Team.  She used the Give it a Whirl dies seen here and the Stellar Birthday stamp set seen here.  Isn't her sponging and coloring amazing!!!?

    She fussy cut the kids but the rest of the die-cuts are all from the Give it a Whirl dies seen on pages 57 & 163 of the Annual Stampin' Up! catalog.

  • Another Nature’s Harvest sample – Sneak Peak!


    I created this card for an online swap I participated in.  I love to join card swaps!  I can create one card and make multiples of it.  Then I get a nice variety back that I didn't have to think of!  Plus I receive cards that may not be my style but are my customers style.  Isn't it wonderful that we are all different?!  

    I decided to focus on the 'blues' in the Harvest Meadow designer series paper.  I am usually very happy with a monochromatic card.  They can be very easy on the eye.  

    I cut out two of the 'tall flower/botanical' die-cut in White CS and adhered it to the largest tags in the Tailor Made Tags dies seen here. I added a bow in White Baker's Twine.  The greeting is one of the dies in the Nature's dies along with the tall flowers. 

    The Nature's Harvest bundle can be found in the upcoming 2021 Holiday July/December Mini Catalog.  If you're on my customer list you should be receiving this catalog AND your Sale-a-Bration catalog any day now.  This catalog goes live on August 3rd along with Sale-a-Bration too! 

    In this photo you may be able to spy the texture on the tag.  It's called Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder.  It's subtle design will be a favorite of many!
