Mountain Air with Stitched Nested Labels

March 11, 2020

This month I'm featuring the Mountain Air bundle; a fantastic set of stamps and dies that make creating scenes so easy. I created 10 beautiful scenic cards to share with anyone who orders this bundle from me this month. It's also free to anyone who places an online order. *Details below

Here's one of my favorites made with the Stitched Nested Label dies and the Stone embossing folder.

The Stitched Nested Label dies are in the annual catalog and you can see them here online.

You might wonder how I achieved the textured white washed background. I first textured the Smoky Slate card stock with the Stone 3D embossing folder. Then I lightly rubbed my White Craft ink pad directly onto the card stock. Let dry or heat set with an embossing tool. Such a fabulous look!

The Stone 3D embossing folder is part of the Power of Hope bundle from the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here. It's free with the Power of Hope stamp set for any $100 order while supplies last. It's already on the low inventory list!

Save

Other details:

Colors are Smoky Slate, Pretty Peacock, Basic Gray and Whisper White
The trees are stamped in Pretty Peacock; one in full strength ink and the other second generation ink (stamped off once). They're die-cut with the Majestic Mountain dies.
The greeting is from the Well Said stamp set (one you can get FREE with the purchase of the Starter kit! #BestDealEver!)

Beautiful but quick cards with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More card pack

May 15, 2024

I shared this card on last week's FB live video. It starts out with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More cards and a Basic White Memories & More card base.

Save

I scored the blue card and the front half of the card base in half. Then added a few short pieces of card stock behind the front layers so that layer pops up.

Save

The size of these pieces do not matter at all. Some people use one thicker piece on each side; I used two thin pieces. It allows the top layer to move independently from the front of the card. See how it's done in this video.

Save

You can see these Memories & More cards here. They come in a pack of 28 – half are 3 X 4" and the rest are 4" X 6". They fit our Basic White Memories & More card bases and envelopes perfectly. They're also a great way to create larger than our usual cards – 4 1/4" X 6 1/4" finished size.

I made more beautiful cards with these products, adding a bit of twine to some along with a few printed greetings from the Saying Something Ephemera pack.

Save

You can see the Saying Something Ephemera pack here. It's FULL of tons of greetings you can just add to a card or scrapbook page. I was thrilled when I saw these in the catalog. They're a perfect solution for quick crafting.

Save

Sometimes you want or need to be able to make quick cards; these items are a wonderful way to do that!
