Mountain Air with Stitched Nested Labels


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! 

 

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!)

  • 2 Techniques with video; Starburst & Masking!


    I made these technique cards on a Facebook Live in July and I know not everyone is on Facebook.  So I'm posting it here for you too. I offer a FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT and one the 2nd & 4th Monday evenings at 7:30 pm CT all using current Stampin' Up! products.  Join me here. 

    I had a request to teach the Starburst technique and came up with this easy version. 

    I used the unique and colorful Artistry Blooms designer paper from the Annual Catalog along with the Tasteful Touches stamp set and Artistry Blooms adhesive backed sequins.  The link to the videos is below but here are the basics: 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White CS 4" X 5 1/4"
    • Artistry Blooms DSP – cut 5 strips measuring 1 1/2" X 5" and then cut these in half on the diagonal.  Now mix and match them to the 4" X 5 1/4" piece leaving a tiny bit of space between them.  

    I added greetings and die-cuts from the Tasteful Touches bundle seen here. 

    Here are the other cards I made using the masking technique and the Tasteful Touches stamp set.


    Which do you prefer?  Yellow or pink?

    Here's a link to the video on Facebook.  Click below to watch it on YouTube.

  • 3 in 1 Triple Panel cards


    I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below

    The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here.  The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare.  Then afterwards you can share your cards too! 

    I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it.  I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here.  You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.  

    I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle.  That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set. 

    Measurements:
    Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".
    Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.
     
    Cutting directions:
    1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.
    2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.
    The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.
    Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!

    On the cards above the colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Smoky Slate and the same Tasteful Touches bundle and leaf die from above.
