Quick Framed Panel card; three ways!

For last week's Stamp with Me Facebook Live I chose to make framed panel cards.  There are likely many ways to frame a stamped panel but I chose to highlight three of them – Stamped, Textured and Designer Paper.  Look!

Framed Panel card White ink Save

On these first two cards I stamped leaves on card stock using White Craft ink.  The colors above are the new 2020-22 In Colors in Just Jade and Misty Moonlight.  I used the Layered with Kindness (retiring!; see it here) and the brand new Forever Fern stamp sets.  The punch is Label Me Fancy seen here. 

Just look at the detail on the Distinktive images here on the Forever Fern stamp set.  I'm in the middle of creating a new Wonder template for 8 quick, beautiful cards using this stamp set.  I cannot wait to share it with you!  

Framed Panel Misty Moonlight Save

I do not have the new Misty Moonlight ink yet so I used Night of Navy, stamped off once.  It's close!

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • long pieces are 1" X 4 1/4"
  • short pieces are 1" X 3"
  • stamped panel is 1 3/4" X 3"
  • Navy layer is 1 7/8" X 3 1/8" 

This next card is the new Cinnamon Cider with Bermuda Bay.  I also used the new Forever Fern stamp set here.  The butterflies are from Butterfly Wishes set.

Framed Panel Misty Moonlight Save

The next card is Seaside Spray with Night of Navy and features the Layered with Kindness and Butterfly Wishes. which coordinated with our Butterfly Duet punch. The Ornate Floral embossing folder is new and in the upcoming Annual catalog but it's available now.

Lastly is one made with Garden Lane designer series paper (on sale right now) in Garden Green & Mint Macaron. 

Framed Panel DSP Save

Each week I share the measurements for our Monday stamp sessions a day or two early. Everyone preps their card supplies and create right along with me on my Facebook Page.  They're loving my quick & simple cards; we make 3 each week on Monday nights at 7:30 pm CT. You can see the cards we're making tonight!  Join us here!

  • Honey Bee with Golden Honey Designer Paper

    I know some people do not like yellow but I always have.  When I was young I chose to a yellow and orange them for my bedroom!  (The walls were yellow and the only orange were in accents so it wasn't too garish!)

    When yellow is paired with Black and White it's a happy and striking color combination in my opinion!

    Here I used Daffodil Delight with the pretty Golden Honey Designer series paper.  It's one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  I was thrilled to see another black and white designer paper in the offering this year!  You can pair it with just about any color!  It also has gold foil accents on many of the sheets.  click here to see it.

    My gals made this card at my New Catalog Stamp a Stack this last Saturday.  The new Honey Bee bundle coordinates with this paper beautifully.  

    Measurements:

    • Daffodil Delight main card – 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”
    • Black 3 5/8” X 4 ¾”

  • Fun Latch Fold card with Music From the Heart

    I had to use my friend Dawn Olchefske's new stamp set for January club. It's the set she designed for her million dollars in sales achievement!  It's a fabulous music themed set called Music From the Heart.  Look!

    Save

    Look at this fun latch fold card!

     

    MUsic from the heart club Jan Save

    The Classic Label punch is perfect to create the 'latch' for this card closure.  We did have to widen the opening a bit by punching off to the side an extra 1/4" on each side as I wanted a larger front layer than the punch allows for.  If you watch the video below you'll see what I am referring to.  

    I decided to offer a choice of card themes for my gals; Valentines, Anniversary and Birthday.  I used the Heart to Heart set for the Valentine's greeting. This pretty foiled paper is called From the Heart specialty designer paper.  You can see it here. 

    Did you know that you can 'play or stamp' Happy Birthday with the individual notes in this set?  Isn't that the best idea ever?! Although creating a 'guitar' from two stamps in this set is even more clever! If you have a musical person in your life you need this set!

    Be sure to watch my video to see how to make this fun fold card.  It's amazingly easy! 

    Measurements:

    • Real Red 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
      White inside 4" X 5 1/4", front and inside flaps 2" X 3 3/4"
      Black 2 1/4" X 8" scored at 4"

  • Sponge Brayer on an embossing folder? Cool effect!

    Have you ever used a sponge brayer?  Did you even know we carry them?  We do!  On page 181 of the annual catalog. Click here to see them. 

     

    Valentines brayer card Save

    I used Pool Party ink and the sponge brayer to add ink to the flat side of the Parisian Flourish embossing folder seen here.  Then I inserted my card stock or envelope flap into the folder and ran it through the machine.  Super easy!  Then just rinse the ink off your embossing folder when you're done.  Our ink colors are water based so it comes off easily. 

    Click below to watch the video; it's at the end of this one below:

    I used another 'stitched heart' on the front of this card using the Heart Doilies seen here. The few die-cuts are from the Stitched Be Mine set of dies in the annual catalog. See those here. 

    Valentines brayer card Save

    I shared how to do this stitched heart doily in a previous FB live video.  Click here to see it.  It took me about 8 minutes to stitch and I do NOT stitch by hand much at all. Maybe once a year.  That should tell you it's easy!
