Right Behind You; so cute!


I chose the Right Behind You stamp set for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month.  Here's my card:

This set is adorable!  And it has such fun greetings to go with the tandem bicycle as well. Click here to see it. 

Details:

  • I used the 'ground' image to create grass by stamping it numerous times.
  • I used the Basic Border dies seen here to sponge the clouds.  Get my tips on this in the video below or click here. 
  • I used a mask to add the puppy in the basket. 
  • The greeting die-cut is from the Messages die. 
  • I used Stampin' Blends to color in the images.
  • I added a Metallic pearl to the spokes in the bicycle. 
  • The sun is simply sponged in the corner with Daffodil Delight ink. 

As you can see it's an easy fun fold card.  Simply add one extra score line to your normal A2 card.  Score the 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Crushed Curry card at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".  The Basic Gray is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" and the White is 3 3/4" X 5".

I added grass and flowers to the inside to pull it all together.  

Click on the video below to watch me make this card; it's the first project on this FB Live replay.  *You can also see how I made the Pinwheel Tower cards in the photo below.

  • Time of Giving for your Holiday projects with video tutorial.


    On last Tuesday's FB Live I focused on the Time of Giving bundle in the current 2021 Holiday Catalog.  This bundle is for many occasions and more fun and versatile than I thought! 

    I'll start with the autumn card featuring the baby wipe technique.

    Isn't it pretty?!  My colors are Bermuda Bay, Pumpkin Pie & Old Olive. Those are the ink refills I used on my baby wipe. If you haven't done the baby wipe technique please watch the video below or click here.  It's so simple and all you need is a folded baby wipe and a few colors of ink refills.  

    The little die-cut leaves on the greeting are also in this bundle.  The Gold Fine Art ribbon is from the annual catalog as well as the white die-cut for the greeting.  It's in the Stitched So Sweetly set.


      All of these images & dies are from this Tidings of Giving bundle seen here. 

    Next is a beautiful snowflake card that's mostly white but the pop of colors shows off this pretty die wonderfully!  It creates a 'window' effect.  I die-cut three dies in a row on my White CS and for the soft colors under it I used my blending brushes with Just Jade & Bermuda Bay ink.

    For this next card I chose the Santa & sleigh die.  As you can see I left a wide border on this one so I could stamp the greeting directly on it.  This pretty background paper is from the Beauty of the Earth DSP in the Stampin' Up! annual catalog seen here. 

    And here is a card using the ornament die.  Again I cut three in a row, lowering the die each time.  Another bit of the Beauty of the Earth designer paper on the side and a greeting added with the Double Oval Punch.  Glittered white ribbon finishes it off. 

    And below is the video where you can see how I achieved these techniques.  I hope you watch!  *Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here too!

  • Last of the Autumn Themed swaps; such neat ideas!


    Tracey made this first card with the Nature's Harvest bundle & Harvest Meadow designer series paper.  I love the way her thin strips of DSP create this stunning background.  

    Then she softened it with a piece of vellum that she textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. 

    Her greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set – it was a bonus free offer in our Sale-a-Bration catalog during August & September.  Underneath the torn greeting strip is some Diamond Weave trim, dyed to match. 

    Next is a beautiful card made by Paula.  She featured the Season's Blessings bundle in the Annual Catalog seen here. 

    Her colors include Bumblebee, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede & Cinnamon Cider. 

    Details:

    • Stitched Greenery die on the background
    • Tailor Made tags for the Cajun Craze die-cut
    • Cork paper for her basket die-cut!!!
    • Beauty of the Earth DSP

  • Nuts About Squirrels


    Look at this adorable card Candace made for our September swap! She used the cute Nuts About Squirrels stamp set.

    Other details:

    • She stamped the squirrel and fussy cut it out. 
    • the embossing folder is called Bark 3D
