• Sending Love Artist of the Month – party 2

  April 17, 2024

  ---

  Here are the second set of Sending Love cards by our Artist of the Month – Donna.  See the first batch here.   

  First up today is a fabulous fun fold card.  

  Save

  I often forget to cut apart my sentiment like this.  It sure adds a playful note!

  The cute grass and mailbox die-cuts are all from the Sending Love bundle seen here.  The stamp set & dies are returning in the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off. 

  Save

  It starts out as a vertical card with this cute mailbox scene.  But when you open it…… you get a horizontal card!

  Save

  I only opened the upper flap in the photo above.  You can see how it turns from a vertical card to a landscape card.  Here's what it looks like fully opened.  I love that you can read the greetings either way! 

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Balmy Blue card stock – 2 pieces at 10 1/4" X 4 1/4". Score each in at 4 3/4".  Then mark at 4" and score from that mark to the outside corner.  The two pieces are adhered together in the center (under the large white layer) 
  • White – inside is 5 1/4" X 4", side triangles started out at 3 3/4" square; cut in half on the diagonal. 

  ~~~

  Next is a sweet pocket card.  Don't you love her beautiful sponging?! 

  Save

  This card has a hidden pocket between the layers.  See that little envelope sticking out?  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Moody Mauve – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  • Sponged Postage die-cut 3 5/8" X 5"
  • Inside White 2 7/8" X 4 1/8"
  • Bubble Bath 3" X 4 1/4"

  ~~~

  Lastly is this adorable hello card with the cutest envelopes on front!  These are also included in the Sending Love dies. 

  Save

  She also used the Deckled Circle dies and the Lighter Than Air designer paper (retiring).  The envelopes match the DSP – Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly & Calypso Coral. 

  Thanks so much for creating and sharing these amazing cards with us Donna!!

• Artist of the Month showcase: Donna with the Sending Love bundle

  April 16, 2024

  ---

  Donna chose the Sending Love bundle for here 'Artist of the Month' showcase.  

  Today I'll share half of the cards she made and the other half tomorrow.  

  Save

  This one is a favorite of mine. There's something about the color combination. Vanilla with Lost Lagoon & Calypso Coral. And her coloring!

  Next is a card that looks just like a postcard!  

  Save

  She stamped a background on the Starry Sky 'Postcard' layer then added the best 'faux' postcard over it.  Below is the inside view: 

  Save

  Next is her amazing slimline card; it's a huge WOW!

  Save

  Isn't this an amazing scene?  She used Azure Afternoon, Granny Apple Green, Gray Granite and the In Color DSP. She created the hills with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  They're half off right now at just $17.40 instead of $29.  I've used these so often and am very sad they're retiring.  

  Save

  The cloudy sky was created by using the cloud/scalloped Basic Border dies as a mask (top die seen above). She also used the Give it a Whirl dies seen here for the stitched cloud die-cuts; they're just $19.50 and were $39.  The 'Sending' die-cut greeting is from the Sending dies seen here.  They're also on sale for $19.80.
