Masterfully Made & Wanted to Say quick card ideas with video tips

And our annual Stampin' Sale is done!  Each June my customers and I host a paper crafting sale – this year we had 30 sellers and we had a fabulous turnout!

That photo was just the stamps for sale; we had so much more!  I wish you could be here for it, but I know it is a long way for some to Minot, ND.  But if you're near me, plan for the weekend after Father's Day. Make a road trip if you can.  
We had one person come from St. Louis and another who was in town visiting from Peru!  They were so glad to be here for this annual event.

Last week I shared three card ideas featuring three products: Masterfully Made designer series paper, Wanted to Say dies and Border Basics dies. Here's one of them:

The Masterfully Made designer paper features a torn edge look to a few of the sheets.  I chose this one because of it's beautiful colors.  I added Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon in the die-cuts from the Wanted to Say dies.  This set of dies has a detailed and a layered die for each set of words in the set, plus a bunch of other dies like the flowers I used here. You can see them here.

The angled border on the White card base is die-cut with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  I love these and use them often.  You can see them here.  I saved the piece I die-cut and used it on another card.  Here are both of the cards I made, using two different sheets of the Masterfully Made DSP.

You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

As you can see, there is no stamping on the front.  But I did add a greeting to the inside:

• Lots to Celebrate stamp set & fun card ideas

  September 11, 2020

  I made time to play with the Lots to Celebrate stamp a few weeks ago and featured these cards on Tuesday's FB Live.  Remember that I host a weekly FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT here. Follow me so you don't miss any!

  This fun, versatile stamp set is my good friend Susie Wood's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set. She created it to coordinate with the Jar Punch.  Click here to see it online.  We've been stamping buddies for years since we met at my first Founder's Circle event and always hang out together at every SU event we can.  Click here to see her blog.

  Aren't they fun?  I cased three cards she made and sent me and changed them up a bit; some more than others.

  The colors above are Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry & Early Espresso.  That gorgeous designer paper is from the Plaid Tidings seen here. I used three punches here; the Fancy Tag Topper, the Jar punch and the Autumn Punch Pack.

  Watch the video below to see her original cards and how I changed them.  Plus I show more of her creative cards too.

• Look at this Amazing Gift!

  September 10, 2020

  I received quite a wonderful surprise in the mail last week from Jakelle; a demonstrator in eastern North Dakota.  Look at what she made me!  

  Save

  It's a 5 X 7" board on an easel and her craftmanship is incredible! She used sooo many different dies & products to complete it. 

  • Tasteful Labels, Playful Alphabet & So Much Happy dies
  • Lovely Labels Pick a Punch
  • In Good Taste Designer Series Paper
  • Nothing's Better Than stamp set

  Save

  She sent this gorgeous card too, congratulating me on my Million Dollar in Sales achievement.  

  Save

  Isn't it beautiful?  She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and dies bundle and the In Good Taste DSP.  If you want to know how to make this Double-point fun fold card here's a link to a video I made.  

  I am so grateful for the fabulous friends I've made; both online and in person.  I would say I have the best job ever; but it doesn't feel like a job!  I'm loving it.  And like my stamp set says, Life is Beautiful!

• Life is Beautiful Apple Tree; get the secret to easy apples!

  September 9, 2020

  ---

  Here's one more card with my Life is Beautiful stamp set. We made this one at my August Card Clubs.  

  Save

  The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red.  See the tiny 'apples' on the tree?  Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image.  I dare you to try it!  Watch the video below to see what I did! 

  That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here.  There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set! 

  Save

  
  

  I'm so happy with all of the projects people are making with this stamp set!  It's been fun to see how much everyone seems to like it!  

  Measurements: 

  • Just Jade card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    Very Vanilla 4 3/8" X 3 1/8" die-cut
    Early Espresso 2" X 4 1/4"
    Real Red 1" X 5 1/2"
