Rainbow of Happiness Easel card with video tutorial

The other card we made at my February card clubs was this bright rainbow easel card. We have so many wonderful rainbow themed products right now. 

Rainbow of Happiness Easel Save

Details:

  • The rainbows and small clouds are die-cut using the Rainbow dies (currently unavailable through March 28th). 
  • The rainbows are cut from the Ombre 12 X 12" Specialty paper in the annual catalog (seen here). 
  • The clouds are punched using the new Cloud punch from either the Simply Ombre DSP, the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP or the Supple Shimmer paper. *The cloud punch matched the Sunshine & Rainbow DSP perfectly! 
  • The stamped images are from the Rainbow of Happiness & the Celebrating You stamp set; both in the 2022 Jan-June catalog
  • The DSP inside the card is the Sunshine & Rainbow paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog; it's free with any $50 order. 
  • They could add either raindrops from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials or the Artistry Blooms sequins. 
  • The frame was made by cutting a rectangle from a 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS with the Stitched Rectangle dies.  

Have you noticed this gorgeous glimmery specialty paper in the annual catalog?  It's perfect for rainbows & that touch of glitter.

Did you know the Sunshine & Rainbows 6 X 6" DSP coordinates with our new Cloud punch?  The cloud punch is currently unavailable but it will be back after March 28th. 

 See the DSP here; it's so happy & bright.  Remember it's retiring after Monday; the last day of Sale-a-Bration.  It's free with any $50 order.

  • Gather Together card with a cool punch trick!!

    Marilyn made this pretty card for our Team swap.  She used the Gather Together bundle in the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.  There are two really neat tricks you might not notice at first glance.  

    August Marilyn Gather Together Save

    Can you spy the two special techniques here?  Keep reading and I'll share them below.

    Measurements:

    • Cajun Craze 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Very Vanilla 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Rich Razzleberry 5" X 3 3/4"
    • Plaid Tidings 1/2" X 3 3/4"

    Products Used:

    Okay, now I'll reveal her two tricks!  

    1. Can you see the changes in colors on the textured leaves?  The bottom three leaves were die-cut & embossed (done all at once!) and then spritzed with water.  The water changes the color on the leaves!  I cannot believe it's just water and no ink to get this effect.  Super cool!!
    2. Next is the greeting shape.  It's made with the Label me Lovely punch.  You can get multiple shapes from this punch.  Here's how:
    • Punch one piece out.  
    • Add a bit of adhesive to the end of a thin piece of card stock and adhere it to the punched piece. 
    • Insert the piece back into your punch and adjust it to get whatever size shape you want!

    Here are three shapes I made with this punch.  Super neat and so versatile!  See the punch here.

  • So Much Happy card with video

    We made this eye-catching, birthday card at my July card clubs last month.  It features the fun So Much Happy bundle.  

    July So Very Happy cards Save

    I also used the Brights & In Color designer paper for the balloons and the Rainbow Glimmer paper for the pennant die-cut & bitty stars.  They had a choice of Magenta Madness, Granny Apple Green or Coastal Cabana for their card.  That cute White greeting die is from the Hippo & Friends dies. 

    The dies in this bundle especially caught my eye; I think they're super versatile! I just love the window the 'Happy' die creates!  Click here to see it.

  • Beautiful Autumn cards; swaps by the Flowerbugs!

    Today I'm sharing two more swaps from my Flowerbug's Fall card swap.  My Team members are so talented and I absolutely love seeing their creativity!  

    Both of these are made with the Beautiful Autumn bundle in the 2020 Holiday Catalog by Stampin' Up!.  

    First is the card Tracey made.  She added sooo many details and layers to her card; it's incredible! 

    August Tracey Beautiful Autumn Save

    Details:

    • Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green and Blackberry Bliss card stock
    • The pretty borders are from the Ornate Border dies seen here
    • The texture is done with the Tasteful Textures 3D embossing folder
    • The punched leaves are from the Autumn Punch pack cut from the Regals DSP pack and some dies are from the Forever Flourishing dies

    August Tracey Beautiful Autumn Save

    Mary's card is almost the opposite of Tracey's; clean and simple where the Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper is the star of the Mint Macaron card.  Her greeting is also from the Beautiful Autumn set as well as the stamped & punched leaves.  She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for the DSP and the greeting. 

    BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The Gilded Autumn paper has Copper and Gold foil on some designs. Some designs can be cut out using the Autumn Punch pack punches.
