I'm so excited!  Today is my annual New Catalog Launch Party from 2-6 pm and I am giving out the new catalogs!!!. My local customers are invited to stop by and browse the new products and project boards.  Our state is allowing gatherings now but I know some people aren't quite ready yet so they can drop in from 4-6 pm and pick up their catalog. 

For my long distance customers I'm holding a Virtual New Catalog Party Wednesday evening from 6-9 here on Facebook.  I'm so excited about this; it's the first time I've held one!

• 2 ways to add color to a solid image with video & free project sheet

  April 11, 2024

  ---

  Today's project is one we made at my March card clubs; it features the beautiful Quiet Reflection stamp set. 

  Save

  This set is returning in the 2024 Annual Catalog and I'm super glad!  It's wonderful for both sympathy or thinking of you cards. And the best part is it's super easy to create with.  See the Quiet Reflection set here. 

  My colors include Shaded Spruce & Starry Sky (retiring In Color). I used a few dies also – Thoughtful Expressions (retired and sold out now) and Garden Meadows dies seen here (for the arch). 

  Save

  Do you know how I achieved the two-toned image of green trees with blue water?  It's so simple!  

  How it's done: I placed my stamp set with the rubber face up. I inked up one half with Starry Sky ink (tapping the rubber with the ink pad) and then the other half with Shaded Spruce.  The nice thing about doing this technique with this particular stamp image is that when you place your greeting strip across the image it covers up any white space left un-inked.  

  Save

  I added a few of the Gold Adhesive-backed Dragonflies & Birds seen here.  I love these so much!  They're super thin and don't add any bulk to your projects. 

  In the video posted here on YouTube you can see how I made this card and another with an entirely different way to achieve a 2-toned image.

• Gorgeous ways to add color to the Quiet Reflection stamp; with video & free project sheet

  April 10, 2024

  ---

  Today I'm sharing one of the projects I featured on last week's Live video.  I chose to showcase the Quiet Reflection stamp set and ways you can add color to the solid image. 

  Save

  You can see this stamp set online here.  It's not retiring; it will return in the new Annual Catalog.  It's a beautiful sympathy set. 

  I chose to use Starry Sky with Shaded Spruce. The dies are the Thoughtful Expressions dies and sadly they are already out of stock; they were on the retiring list and they've sold out.  

  Notice the two toned image here.  This one is simply a matter of inking in Blue and stamping. Then ink a sponge dauber in green ink and dab over the stamped image.  So easy! 

  I do have a free project sheet with the directions, measurements & supplies list.  See it here.  Download Quiet Reflection 2-toned

  In the video posted here on YouTube you can see how I made this card and another with an entirely different way to achieve a 2-toned image.  I'll share the card on the right below tomorrow.
