Queen Anne’s Lace cards


I was playing with the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set and was in the mood for purple.  I combined Gorgeous Grape with Purple Posy to make the card below.

There are just three pieces on this card but it looks like there's more!  Sometimes you don't need to add an extra layer for the sentiment. You can stamp it on the main piece below the image usually divided by a ribbon.  But this time I added the flower image on an additional layer of Purple Posy for an extra layered look.

This Queen Anne's Lace stamp set is one of two you get free this month when you purchase the Starter Kit.  Read about that here!  It's such a great deal with over $75 in free product!  Pay just $99 and get $200!  And FREE Shipping too!  

I added a piece of the Brights DSP on the left.  That tricolor ribbon sure brings it all together!  Tying a knot and securing the ends in the back is easy and with soft ribbon there isn't a thick bump at all. 

Measurements:

  • Gorgeous Grape main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4"
  • Purple Posy 2 3/4" X 3" tall
  • Whisper White 4 1/4" X 3" 

I also made this additional card on the right using a sketch I found.  It's very similar but this time I stamped all on one layer and added a 3/4" strip of Playing with Patterns Designer paper between the main image and the greeting. Easy! 

Hopefully these easy cards inspire you to stamp this week.  Using two shades of the same color sure makes it easy to choose colors!  Think of blues, pinks, greens, etc.

  • Unique Charming Day fun fold card with video tutorial


    I shared this cool fancy fold card on last week’s Live video.  It looks like an ordinary card at first glance… 

    I colored the main floral image with a Wink of Stella and ink from my ink pads.  Watch the video to see how it’s done.

    I featured the Floral Charm DSP that’s discounted right now during the In Color promotion.  See it here. It’s almost $2 off.  My favorite thing about it is the color coordination. Each pattern has a soft, matching back side.

    I also used the Charming Day bundle that coordinates with the DSP.  See that here. 

    Here’s how the card opens.  I’m calling it a double diagonal center fold card. The center stays in place but the outer triangles lift up and to the outside as shown below. 

    I have a complete project sheet for you with measurements, directions, supplies and photos.  The video tutorial will help you understand how to assemble this card; see it below.  Click on the following link to print or download this project sheet: Download Double Diagonal Center fold cards

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another super neat fun fold card; both featuring this beautiful paper and Charming Day bundle.

  • These pretty cards are the last of the Monochromatic Team swaps


    I’ve been sharing our Team swaps this week that all feature a Monochromatic theme. This means the colors should include hues of similar colors. 

    First is a pretty and soothing card made by Jacki.   

    She used the Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  Her colors include Very Vanilla with Crumb Cake.  Her greeting is from the  stamp set seen here.  

    I love how the grass image repeats itself on the Vanilla layer in the background.  

    Measurements:

    • Crumb Cake 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, 3″ X 4 1/4″
    • Vanilla 4″ X 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ X 4″ 

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty wedding or anniversary card made by Marla.  

    She used the Lifetime of Love stamp set seen here and the coordinating dies seen here.  I love how these delicate dies inlay so perfectly.

    Her colors include Navy, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake & White. She also used a new embossing folder called Jolly Holly Hybrid seen here.  These leaves allow her to lift them a bit to add more dimension. 

    The Designer paper is 2 5/8″ wide and is the Country Lace pack and is discounted and on the Last Chance list now.  See it here.

    And lastly is this soft & pretty card made by Paula. 

    Her card features the blue tones of Blueberry Bushel with Azure Afternoon. Her stamp sets are Elements of Text seen here and Textured Notes seen here. The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set seen here. 

    I hope you enjoyed seeing the beautiful Monochromatic swaps this week.  I have a super talented team!
