Two projects with the brand new Color & Contour bundle!!

I created these cards when I was working on some card swaps I participated in.  I like to create a bunch of cards and then decide which one's to use and mail out.  

I chose the Color & Contour bundle because it's full of wonderful dies perfect for the pretty floral image in the stamp set. And I'm glad it's a 2-step stamp set. 

For this first card I chose the Pale Papaya In Color and accented it with Black. 

Can you spy all of the new products I used?  There are 5 if you count everything.

1. The Scalloped Contour dies – the pretty Black scalloped border and the main scalloped rectangle; all in the same bundle. 
2. Color & Contour stamp set (included in the bundle at 10% off).  I stamped the background with a daisy stamp in the set 
3. Pale Papaya ink and card stock
4. Pale Papaya & White ribbon
5. Genial Gems (the package includes Pale Papaya & Mint Macaron)

Next is a card I did end up using for an online swap. The colors here are Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent.

Look at the new Gingham paper!  It's included in the Pansy Petals 12" designer series paper pack.  Look at the gorgeous ribbon!  It's so soft & pretty and available in all of our new In Colors. 

I also used another new dies set called Tailor Made Tags for the greeting.  It has 4 sizes of tags in two styles along with reinforcements for the holes.  I cannot wait for you all to have the new Annual Catalog in your hands!!  

If you want to get your hands on the new Annual Catalog products early you can add any of these items to your Starter Kit seen here.  Our Starter Kit is always 20% off; you get $125 in product for just $99 and free shipping as well!

• Happiest Day card with video tutorial; a simple layout with a gorgeous look

  October 14, 2024

  ---

  On last week's Live video I chose the Happiest Day stamp set as my featured product.  It was discounted during the 3 day stamp sale but you can see it here. Here's one of the cards I made: 

  Save

  I chose to use our 2023-25 In Colors; Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie and Petunia Pop along with Black. We have glimmer paper in these colors too so I added three strips to the card base at a diagonal.  See it here.  The strips adds a bit of a whimsical look that matches these cute dragonflies. 

  Here's how I stamped the inside.  

  Save

  For the hearts I used that same glimmer paper along with the Humble Home Builder punch (out of stock currently).

  The circle die-cut for the greeting is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. These dies are back in stock now! The White rectangle is a die-cut from the Deckled Rectangles seen here. 

  Save

  I did not make a project sheet for this card since it's so simple. 

  Here are the measurements:

  • White card base – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", White deckled rectangle die-cut 2 5/8" X 3 7/8", circle die-cut1 5/8"
  • Black – 2 3/4" X 4 1/8"
  • Glimmer paper strips – 5 1/4" X 3/8"

  Check out the video below; I share one more unique card with a special edge technique and a few other ideas as well.
