I played with the Rainbow of Happiness bundle on Facebook Live earlier this week.  Here's a neat shaker card I made: 

Shaker cards look difficult but they're fun AND easy!  Watch the video below to see how it's done.

The Rainbow of Happiness bundle is 10% off in our Spring catalog.  See it here.  I just noticed it's on low inventory. That means when they run our it will not be available again until the product is restocked. That Global Shipping issue you know!!

It's hard to see in the photo above but the paper inside the shaker is our Rainbow Glimmer specialty paper from the annual catalog.  I share a neat trick to get these rainbow die-cuts in place in the video below or click here. 

Here's a close up of another: 

Here are some details:

  • The large rainbow is made with the Brilliant Rainbow dies – it's part of the Rainbow of Happiness bundle. 
  • The small clouds are die-cut from our Supple Shimmer paper & the Rainbow dies
  • The sequins & beads in the shaker are from the Sparkle & Shine sequins
  • I used our Foam Adhesive strips on the back side of the White die-cut piece to raise it and keep the shaker pieces in place.
  • The large clouds are punched with our new Cloud Punch. One is punched from the Sunshine & Rainbows free DSP during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. See it here. 

The card above on the left has a cloud bank made with our Border Basic dies and our new Supple Shimmer paper.  Stampin' Up! is terrific at coordinating their products so incredibly.  

The shaker card is the first project I make in the video below. Click on it to watch!

  • Amazing Side-step Vertical Easel card with Waves of the Ocean suite


    We made this remarkable fun fold card at my March card clubs. It features the Waves of the Ocean suite seen here. 

    Dies featured here:

    • The Dandy Wishes dies in  the Garden Wishes bundle is 20% off right now. You can see that here.  I just love the die-cuts and greetings in it.  *I wonder if this will be on the retiring list tomorrow….. 
    • The 'Thanks' and 'Amazing' dies are from the Amazing Thanks dies in the 2022 Jan-June catalog.  You can see them here.  I love the double layering you get with them!!  

    This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" when finished and lays flat for mailing but stands up beautifully for display.  

    You can see how this is assembled in the video below.  I also list the measurements below too. 

    The card includes two white panels; one for the middle and one for the back.  We stamped the wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set using Pacific Point ink on the middle layer.  We added some Bermuda Bay ink on the wave using a Blending Brush.  We also added a soft bit of Pacific Point for the sky.  

    Some left the back empty so they could add a greeting later; depending on what they needed at the time. 

    As you can see below the gorgeous Waves of the Ocean designer paper includes a variety of 'paint poured' designs & colors.  I wanted it to be the main feature of the card and this fun fold made it happen!  This designer paper is available through May 1st or while supplies last.  This pretty paper, the foil and Waves rhinestones will not be in the new Annual catalog. 


    Everyone who orders the Waves of the Ocean suite collection from me will receive my exclusive PDF & video for 11 beautiful projects!  


    I used the Dandy Wishes dies for the 'flower heads'.  For the right card below I trimmed off a few of the side pieces to create a smaller flower head. 

    Measurements:

    • Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 1 1/4, 2 1/2" & 2 1/2" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" 
      Waves of the Ocean DSP 2 1/4" X 5 1/4"
      White X2 – 3" X 4" (front & back)
      scraps of White & Navy for die-cuts

  • Easter Friends; simply adorable! Video tutorial included.


    I chose the Easter Friends stamp set for one of our Club cards in March.  It truly has adorable images!  See it here.

    I shared a few other projects during a recent Facebook Live. Click here to see it.  

    Look at this sweet bunny image!  

    I stamped him/her in Smoky Slate and added a tiny bit of blush on his cheeks.  I added a light line of Pool Party blends marker around the edge. The designer papers on this card include the Heart & Home and Hand Penned DSP's.  These will likely be on the retiring list which comes out on Wednesday, March 23rd. 

    They could choose between the bunny or the duck. The duck is colored in with Blends markers; So Saffron & Pale Papaya. All greetings are from the Easter Friends stamp set; stamped in Basic Gray.  

     

    Other details: 

    • Stitched Rectangles for the White & Pale Papaya stamped pieces
    • Flower & Leaves punch for the large flower
    • Bough punch for the little bitty tulips
    • Brass Butterflies scattered around the duck or bunny; see them here
    • I made a 'faux bow' by folding sheer Pool Party ribbon back and forth, adhering the folds with mini glue dots.  No bulk!

  • Sentimental Swirls; a super fun stamp set with a Video for multiple card ideas!


    I played with the Sentimental Swirls stamp set on last Tuesday's FB Live video.  Honestly I didn't want to stop!  This set is so friendly and easy to create with.  

    Here I stamped the swirls and leaves first using Black Memento ink. I added the solid leaf image using Granny Apple Green.  Then added texture with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. 

    The flowers were stamped on scraps of White paper and colored in with Blends markers. I curled them a bit and added with mini dimensionals.  The bird is fussy cut and added with Dimensionals. 

    The card on the left below features the dot coloring technique.  I used the bullet tip of my Blends markers to color the flowers.  Fun technique!  Watch the video below to see it in action. 


    This set coordinates beautifully with the Flowers & Leaves punch in the Annual Catalog.  Below you see both cards along with the coordinating stamp set & punch. 

    I love that this stamp set includes outline & solid images to match.  

    For the next card I again stamped the lovely swirl in Black Memento ink onto a scalloped rectangle from the Scalloped Contours dies.  I added a few sets of leaves here and there among the swirls.  The flowers were stamped on a separate scrap of White and punched out.  

    I sure love the greetings in this set!  Versatile and such cute font.  


    I also shared this cute card too.  I stamped a scattered background on a piece of White CS before texturing it with the same Tasteful Textile embossing folder.  It is my 'go to' choice for a simple texture.  

    The color here is Polished Pink with bits of Pale Papaya, Granny Apple Green & Coastal Cabana. The White tag is 2" X 3 1/4"  & the smaller Polished Pink is 1 3/4" wide.
