Basically you need three sizes of circle dies or punches for the start of this layout. Cut them in half and layer together with the edges meeting on one side. Adhere and add a long greeting between the two.

Watch how on my FB Live replay!

Measurements:

5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
3 1/2" X 4 3/4" Whisper White; the greeting strip is about 5" long and either 1/2" or 3/4" wide depending on your greeting image.
1" X 5 1/2" horizontal strip
Circles from the Stitched Shapes dies are the largest three circles.

You'll want ink, stamps and embellishments that coordinate with your Designer Paper. Remember you could use card stock instead of DSP.

Snailed It; fun, colorful & adorable

March 31, 2021
This is another card we made at my March Card Clubs. I featured the Snailed It Bundle seen here.

Save

This cute designer paper is retiring and not returning in the new Annual Catalog in May. It is full of bright colors and adorable patterns. I used the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch seen here.

That cute envelope comes in the set of Snail dies. And quite a few of these dies coordinate with the Snail Mail designer paper too!

Butterfly wobble & Bokeh technique with video!

March 29, 2021
I'm excited to share one of my March Club cards with you. This background is called the Bokeh technique.

Save

Sponging a background is a big favorite of mine and when you add the Bokeh technique to it you get magic! I created my own dotted mask by punching a bunch of circles from a piece of card stock.

We made these cards at my March card clubs and they loved it! I used the Vine Design stamp set as well as the Happy Thoughts set; both are retiring and on the Last Chance list here.

Measurements:
- Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  White sponged layer 3 3/4" X 5"
  White layer (under sponged layer) 3 7/8" X 5 1/8"
  White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  White greeting strip 1/2" X 5"
Save

I used Pretty Peacock, Pacific Point & Magenta Madness inks as well as the White Craft ink pad for the light colored dots. You can see the video below. It's so easy and amazing!

The butterflies are created with the new Brilliant Wing dies seen here. They'll be in the upcoming Annual catalog but are available now too.

Save

Here is the video; I hope you watch it. This technique is so fun and unique every single time! Think of the colors you could use!
