Pretty is the word for the Hand Penned suite!

This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite.  I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents.

That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen here on page 131 of the new Annual catalog.  It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June.

I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle.  Click here to see the bundle.

The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.

  I hope your new year is filled with Peace, Good Health, Happiness & Prosperity

  I thought I'd share the event we held on December 16th. My local friends and I held a big fundraising Holiday Bazaar to benefit a few local non-profit organizations.

  Save

  It was held at our church and as you can see it was jam packed with fabulous handmade crafts & goodies. We offered tons of crafts, gifts, handmade cards, baked & home-canned goods, cookie trays & more.  Plus we had a silent auction, vendors and lunch! 

  It was a great success as we raised over $3200 for our charities! It was a fun-filled day and the time & effort was well worth it to support our local non-profits.

• NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

  December 28, 2023

  ---

  I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them. 

  Save

  It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th.  The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White. 

  There's a few special details I'd like to point out:

  1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
  2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 
  3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here.  You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.

  Here's a close-up of this technique.

  I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

  I hope you'll try this easy but unique card layout!
