More Team card swaps

March 25, 2026

Today I’m sharing the other card swaps my Team members made featuring Online Exclusive products.

First is Karen’s card made with the Homemade Sweetness suite seen here.

It’s a book-binding fold where the left side is adhered together and just the right part opens.

Check out the embossed layers with the Ladybug Picnic embossing folder. It’s so neat! Unfortunately it’s out of stock right now; but it will be back. If you want it be sure to add your email to the product to be informed when it’s back.

~~~

Next is Candy’s card made with the Cutest Crew stamp set seen here. She wanted to use the dies but they were out of stock. They came back for two days and are now out of stock again! Popular set!

Her colors are stunning! Bubble Bath with Smoky Slate and White. She stamped the kittens on the Nested Essentials die-cut and colored them in with Smoky Slate & Bubble Bath Blends markers. The embossing folder is the Hearts of Love embossing folder.

~~~

Here’s Joan’s card featuring the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper.

She layered 3 different pieces of this foiled paper with Pretty in Pink before adding her greeting layer on top. Neat layout!

~~~

Lastly is Jess’s card featuring the Lovely Stripes embossing folder seen here.

The vertical strips of DSP are from the Made with Love. I like how she alternated the DSP strips with the card stock strips. This is the first swap she joined; she did a great job!

Her greeting is from the Cutest Crew stamp set.

That’s it for our March swaps. I hope you are inspired by their creations!

Waves of Inspiration Sunset

March 16, 2022

Here's another card that's included in this month's Waves of Inspiration kit to go. The colors are gorgeous!

Save

This card was inspired by another Demonstrator but I cannot find the name to give credit now. It's Balmy Blue with touches of Mango Melody. I used a Blending Brush to achieve that smooth shaded layer of Mango Melody & Balmy Blue.

Like I mentioned, this card is included in both the Kit go Go and the PDF tutorial and exclusive videos this month. The last day to get in on the pre-cut kit is tomorrow, March 17th. Get the details here.

The Kit to Go includes the Waves of Inspiration stamp set & dies, the 6 cards kit and videos & PDF tutorial for 11 cards for $74. Message me here to opt in for it; and I'll send you an invoice via PayPal.

Free-form waves using the Floating Technique

March 15, 2022
We made this gorgeous 'wave' card at a Team meeting last month. I used the Waves of Inspiration bundle and a Blending Brush for the sky.

Save

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and White. See those gorgeous gems? They're called Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels and there are 168 in a package for just $6.50! See them here.

I had a bunch of curvy foil pieces left over after die-cutting a bunch of these waves from the two blue colors in the Blue Foil paper seen here. I challenged myself to use them and came up with a free-form wave using the Floating Technique.

Save

I adhered various die-cut foil pieces to a Window Sheet using Multipurpose liquid glue and added them to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. This take a bit of patience as you can imagine!

Here are some tips to achieve this:
- It's best if you start at the bottom and add just a few pieces. Let it set to dry.
- Adding a weight over them while they dry helps keep them flat. The foil likes to curl up.
- Next form the top of the wave. I used one of the long curved pieces for this.
- Add just a few pieces at a time and let them dry. They slide easily!
- Fill in the center of the wave a few at a time. Again, add weight over it all to set & dry.
- Trim off the sides of the Window sheet at 4" to fit the White layer. I fussy cut the top to match the foil wave.
- I adhered it to the textured 'Bark 3D' White 4" X 5 1/4" piece of CS with mini dimensionals.

Fun 4-Way Split Angled card idea; Live video tonight!

March 14, 2022
We're making these fun but easy cards on tonight's Facebook Live. It's at 7:30 pm CT here. I hope you can join me! If not it will be added to my YouTube channel here as well. *Be sure to follow me on FB so you won't miss these lives!

Every 2nd & 4th Monday night's I host a 'Stamp with Me' live on Facebook where we create striking cards using Designer Paper or a fun technique. If you're new to stamping you'll become more comfortable and efficient at it. If you're a seasoned stamper you'll still enjoy it and get new ideas to create.

Tonight I'll share a version of this card; I'm calling it a 4-way Split Angled card.

Save

The card above features the Abstract Beauty specialty designer paper in the 2022 January-June catalog by Stampin' Up! It has splashes of color along with gold highlights. See it here.

Save

If you want to make one of these you'll need card bases, DSP or stamps & ink and a greeting or die-cut like I used here.
- card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored in half at 5 1/2"
- Colored layer 4" X 5 1/4"
- DSP or stamped layer 3 3/4" X 5" (for a wider split use 3 1/2" X 4 3/4")
The Amazing Thanks dies have quickly become a favorite of mine. See those here.

Save

The next example uses the Flowing Flowers stamp set in Calypso Coral, Pear Pizzazz and Daffodil Delight. I stamped the images before I cut them in 4 pieces.

Save

You might wonder – 'how do you cut these into 4 angled pieces?' Honestly I cut from the top to the bottom first, just estimating my angled cut. Then I held the two pieces back together and cut from the bottom left to the right side.

It does not have to be perfect! Honestly; just wing it; I dare you to do this without measuring.
