Perched in a Tree Ink Blending sunset technique


I can't get enough of the Perched in a Tree bundle!  We made these cards at my August Card Clubs this month: 


They had the choice of adding the bird or a set of die-cut, colored leaves.  We added color to both with our Blending Brushes using Crumb Cake & Balmy Blue for the bird and Bermuda Bay & Mango Melody on the leaves.  

The greetings are from the Soft Seedlings stamp set stamped on a 1" X 4 1/4" Vanilla CS strip.  

If you have trouble getting a smooth Ink Blending background please watch the video to catch my tips.  

From the top down I used these colors:  Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody & either Balmy Blue or Crumb Cake on the bottom.  You might think I used a yellow color on the upper right card but it's just very light Mango Melody.

The Aspen dies are available in three ways – in the Bundle at a 10% discount, separately from the Perched in a Tree stamp set or free during August & our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 

*Best buy: purchase the Perched in a Tree bundle in August and choose a $50 Sale-a-Bration choice for free!  See them all here.

  • Fun Treat box made from our Acetate Card Boxes


    Did you know we carry the perfect size clear box for gifting a set of A2 cards?  You can see them here or on page 137 of the annual catalog. They fit about 4 cards inside depending on how many layers there are. 

    Well Marilyn cut one box in half and created this adorable treat box for her Card Club friends!  

    It features the Cute Halloween designer paper and Frightfully Cute stamp set. 

    There's a template for the card stock below.  She used the Basic Border dies (seen here) to cut the bottom edge but you wouldn't have to.  If you don't use the Basic Borders Dies on the edge, you could cut the 5-1/2" down to 5".

    She filled it with lots of treats & embellishments.  It also fits an entire full size Kit Kat bar! 

    She uses a mini velcro dot for closure.  The card stock is actually inserted inside the box and mini glue dots are used to keep it in place.  

    And here's the template for the card stock insert.

  • Be Dazzling specialty paper is sold out! Fabulous Summer Shadow dies projects with video!


    I cannot believe the many ways you can use these Summer Shadow dies seen here!  I shared two bright, fun cards yesterday here and have more yet today. 

    I sure love the leaves in Coastal Cabana & Pool Party!  The flowers are Melon Mambo & Blushing Bride.  

    The greeting is from the coordinating stamp set in the Annual Catalog called Shaded Summer seen here. I love the greetings & font in this set! That heat embossed greeting/die-cut is from the Messages die. 

    Next up I created some colorful cards using the Sale-a-Bration Be Dazzling specialty designer paper.  As of today this paper is SOLD OUT unfortunately.  They did predict they'd run out of this paper before Sale-a-Bration is over. 

    Just so you know, these Summer Shadow dies (and the Sheep dies) are also expected to run out! 

    I used Blends markers to color my flowers.  You can see this in the video below.  The card base is Granny Apple Green and the vertical strips are Poppy Parade on the left & Magenta Madness on the right. 

     Which is your favorite? 

    I'm so sorry that this gorgeous paper is unavailable now.  I hope most of you ordered it while you could!  

    Below is the video where I share lots of cards featuring the Summer Shadow dies and the Shaded Summer stamp set. Click on the photo to watch.
