Ornate Garden; simply done


Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog.  You can see all of it here. 

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough.  So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White.  I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.  

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

  • Peaceful Poppies; easy cards!


    The new Peaceful Poppies designer series paper is gorgeous with bright, pretty colors and lots of poppies!  There's one sheet in particular that makes it super easy to make quick, floral cards. Click here to see it in my store. 

    It's the sheet of paper on the far left above.  

    I cut the paper at 5 1/2" across and above the flowers.  Then into 3" strips.  Now I have 8 panels of flowers ready for cards!  

    I made two cards here adding a 1" X 5 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade on the left and a white punched border using the Decorative Ribbon Border punch. The cards are Old Olive cut at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2" 

    The greetings are from the new Sale-a-Bration set 'Sending you Thoughts' on page 11 of that catalog.  You can see it here. The punch they're stamped on is the Timeless Label punch seen here.  

    You might wonder where I found that pretty crinkled Poppy Parade ribbon. It's the new 1/4" White crinkled ribbon that I colored Poppy with my Dark Poppy Parade blends.  I LOVE being able to color my ribbon the exact color I need for my projects!  

    Check out all of the Sale-a-Bration items here; remember you get a free choice for every $50 or $100 you spend!

  • Snowman Peek-a-Boo card with video


    This interactive card is fun& adorable and my gals loved it at our December club events.  

    They were anxious that it would be difficult.  There is a little trick to it but once you 'get it' you'll find it's pretty easy. 

    I cased this card from my very creative friend, Julie Davison.  Her style is simple yet fun.  Her layouts are the best!

    My color scheme came from the Let it Snow specialty designer paper from the Holiday catalog.  Unfortunately that paper is out of stock.  It was VERY popular!  It's Coastal Cabana, Real Red, White and Black. 

    The Snowman Season set is still available as a bundle through today; January 2nd.  Get it at 10% off now.  It will return this year but not as a bundle at the discount. See the stamp set here and the punch here

    Here's the corrected video; not upside down!  Ha! 

     

    Measurements:
    Red card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    Coastal Cabana tag 2" X 5 3/4" scored at 3 1/2" and 4", front layer is 2 3/8" X 3 1/4"
    White front 2 1/8" X 3", small snowman piece is 1 1/2" X 1 3/4"; inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
    Designer paper 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"

    Here's a pretty card I made for a recent online swap I participated in.  It features the Thoughtful Blooms and Small Bloom punch on pages 12 & 13 of the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  I love it when SU gives us coordinating stamps and punches!  

    My colors are Blushing Bride, White and Granny Apple Green.  I used the new Coastal Weave embossing folder from the Mini catalog, the Stitched Nested Label dies too. 

    I curled the little petals up with my bone folder and added the Gingham Gala adhesive-backed sequins to the center.
