Inlaid technique video with Mountain View!

February 28, 2020

This gorgeous card was one of our January Card Club projects. Of course I love the colors of Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock.

I cased the idea from Cheryl Miller at Sense of Whimsy.

Here's how to make this pretty card.

First die-cut two trees from the main White panel one on the upper left and one on the lower right.
I sponged one of these die-cut white trees with Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple ink for the center tree.
Then die-cut two more trees from the Lily Impressions designer paper (free with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration).
Adhere the White panel to the Coastal Cabana panel and then to the main Green card base.
Insert the two die-cut trees into the left and right die-cut areas for an inlaid effect. (I recommend Fine Tip glue or Multipurpose adhesive)
There's a trick to getting this unique greeting shape with the Tailored Tag punch. I share it on the video below.
I used the Sending you Thoughts stamp set and heat embossed the greeting.

Watch the video below for many more tips on creating this fabulous card.

A pretty card with the Wonderful World free bundle from Sale-a-Bration

July 11, 2022

This is a card I made for an online swap I joined. I LOVE swapping and getting a bunch of cards back that I didn't have to design! It also gives my customers a variety of cards that might not be my style but could be theirs.

I couldn't stop playing with the Wonderful World bundle from Sale-a-Bration!

Save

The colors are Mossy Meadow, Starry Sky & Basic White. I simply added a 1 1/2" X 5 1/2" strip of the pretty Wonderful World designer paper to pull the colors together. The pattern & colors in the DSP were my inspiration for the card.

Here's a photo of the bundle you can earn during our Sale-a-Bration promotion in July & August of 2022. Any $100 order qualifies you to receive this bundle of designer paper and stamp set!

Save

I used the Very Best Occasions bundle for the greeting and the additional corner punch detail.

Save

Stop in for another set of cards with this bundle tomorrow.

Remember that Sale-a-Bration is the best time of year to get free products! It's smart to order your essentials or from your wishlist during SAB.

Black & White with a POP of color & ALL fun folds for my 2nd July card kit to go; or choose the tutorial only option

July 8, 2022
I'm always drawn to Black & White patterned paper because it's such a fun start to creating. Black & White with a 'pop' of color are usually quite striking, eye-catching cards and these are no exception!

Each one is a unique fun fold design with great pops of color too.

Save

I chose to use the Biggest Wish stamp set for my greetings but you can substitute any set you own. Or add it on to the kit at an extra 10% off.

Here's how it works:

The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free. It's the best deal.

You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Perfectly Penciled DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Iridescent Pearls and 1/8" Tahitian Tide ribbon. You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards! The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces. It does not include textured embossing.

The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions. I have just a few of these left. See all of my kits here

*Get the pre-cut kit plus tutorial here. **Choose the PDF tutorial only here.

What you need to complete these cards:
1. A paper trimmer, adhesives & paper snips
2. Inks and stamp greetings (inks are Real Red, Black & Tahitian Tide)
3. Die-cut & embossing machine to add texture to some layers
These cards are uniquely special and can be used for many occasions.

Get a 2 toned leaf with Watercolor Pencils with the Soft Seedlings stamp set

July 7, 2022
Here's another card I shared on this week's FB Live video. I continued with the same color scheme of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam. Who knew these colors would be so pretty together!?

Save

I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set (seen here) from the new Holiday catalog along with the FREE cards & envelopes from our newest Sale-a-Bration line.

I inked and stamped the main leaf image in Soft Sea Foam directly onto the Soft Sea Foam card stock. Then I used a watercolor pencil from the Assortment 2 package to highlight the leaf with the blue/green hue. Afterwards I blended it with my Wink of Stella pen.

Save

These Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes are a free choice from our new Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here. I love SAB when we can all get something free with our orders! Spend a minimum of $50 and pick something absolutely free!

These cards & envelopes are one of my top picks in the catalog. The package includes 20 envelopes and 10 each of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam card bases. Today's project features the Soft Sea Foam card base. You can use them for lots of cards in the future!

Other products used:
- Stylish Shapes dies for the banners
- Bough punch with vellum card stock
- Sponge daubers, Wink of Stella
- Clear rhinestones with a Granny Apple Green Blends marker to change them from clear to green.
Below you can see all three cards I shared in the video. I also shared a bunch of swap cards I received using this stamp set. I hope you watch it!
