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!

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!  

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.

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. 

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!

  • Look at this! Ornate Borders wow!


    This is one of the cards I made for everyone who orders the Ornate Thanks bundle (or the Ornate Garden Suite) from me this month. 

    I used THREE of the Ornate Border dies for this card! 

    It's Blueberry Bushel with White accents.  I will sure miss this color!  It will be retiring in just 9 days!  Be sure to get any of the 5 retiring in colors while you can. Once the list comes out on April 22nd they go very fast.

    Isn't that border die amazing?  And so simple too. The Blueberry Bushel card starts out as usual at 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".  Then I used the detailed floral border die on the lower edge. *save a few of the leaves for the flower accent in the corner. 

    I used the dotted border die on the lower edge of the White card stock.  Stamp your greetings and add the ribbon and bow. 

    Next cut out the third detailed floral die-cut from a strip of White card stock.  Trim off just a little section of the flowers to add to the upper left corner; with a few of the extra leaves from the lower edge die-cut. 

    Adding a White layer inside the card for stamping and/or writing your message highlights the gorgeous floral trim on the front.  

    This is just one of the FREE 3 cards you'll receive from me when you purchase either the Ornate Thanks bundle OR the entire Ornate Garden Suite from me this month.  See it all here in my online store. 

    And remember that all online orders over $55 in April will receive a free Simple Shammy from me too! Details below.

  • Welcome Easter; three adorable card swaps!


    I received these cards in a long distance swap I participated in.  Unfortunately their labels came off so I don't know who made two of them so I cannot give credit.  So if you know of if it's yours please let me know!

    They're so adorable I just had to share them with you! You can see this stamp set here: 

     

    I love this peek-a-boo bunny here!  Yes; it's fussy cut.  There aren't dies for it.  She used Highland Heather and our Subtles designer paper.  I really like how she die-cut a circle from the square, flipped it over to reveal the reverse side of the designer paper. Very cool!  See all of our packages of 6 X 6" designer paper here. 

    That thin strip of Best Dressed designer paper adds a spring-like touch to it!  The sequins are from our Adhesive Backed package. 

    I know Karen Titus made this one. I just love her water-coloring!  Adding that bit of light gray or tan with a Blends marker adds so much depth!  

    The White is 2 5/8" stitched square from the Stitched Shapes dies.  The other colors are Seaside Spray, Gray Granite, Petal Pink and Soft Seafoam and are 1 3/4" square.  This layout really highlights the main image. 

    Have a wonderful Easter weekend!

  • April’s card kit to go


    I chose to use the Well Dressed designer paper for my card kit to go this month.  This paper is full of stylish images and soft florals.

    This month's kit includes 4 unique fun-fold cards but you get two of each!  Plus I added an adorable pre-cut bag filled with mini cards too!  Look! 

    Each card is finished differently giving you lots of options! This kit to go includes $20 in product plus more!

    • a full package of the 6 X 6" Best Dressed designer series paper seen here. 
    • 1 full spool of Mint 3/8" satin ribbon
    • a full package of Pearl jewels
    • a pdf tutorial for all 8 fun fold cards plus the purse and mini cards
    • the pre-cut kit!  It includes pre-cut, punched and die-cut pieces ready to stamp and assemble.
    • You'll cut your own designer paper using the measurements in the tutorial. 


    I used the Dressed to Impress, Butterfly Gala and Peaceful Moments stamp sets to finish mine.  In the tutorial I give you two examples of each card so you can make either or both.  Add on either stamp set or bundle at a 10% discount! 

    You have two choices: get the pre-kit to go which includes the pdf tutorial.  Or opt to purchase the pdf tutorial alone. 

    You can see and purchase both here on my Tutorial Shop.  Be sure to opt in by Friday, April 17th!
