Save time on finishing the inside of your cards with this trick!

I’m excited to share these stunning snowflake cards with you today. We made them at my card clubs in December.
Living in North Dakota, we usually see a lot of snow in the winter so these cards are great for many occasions.

I used the Snowflake Kisses bundle seen here. It’s filled with wonderful greeting images and lots of snowflake dies.

My colors include Pretty Peacock with Cloud Cover and Gorgeous Grape with Fresh Freesia. I think blues & purples are perfect for snowflakes. We used a blending brush to add more color to the large snowflake die-cut.

After creating the cards above I thought I’d try combining the colors on the large die-cut.

Isn’t that pretty? I just love combining Gorgeous Grape with Pretty Peacock on the Fresh Freesia die-cut. Blending Brushes make this a breeze!

Look how we finished the inside.

I wanted to add snowflakes to the inside of the card but didn’t want to die-cut tons of them for my club gals. So I came up with creating a snowflake stencil.
I cut multiple snowflakes from a piece of card stock and we used Blending Brushes to add pretty snowflakes to our White layer. I truly love the effect it gives.

See how this card is made in the video below. I also shared a second Snowflake Kisses fun fold card.

• Unique ideas with the Oh So Ombre designer paper; Promo ends Sunday!

  February 25, 2021

  ---

  Here are a few more ideas with the gorgeous Oh So Ombre designer paper.  It has been my favorite Sale-a-Bration item this year!  

  Playing with strips has always been fun for me.  On this first card I started with one sheet of DSP and cut it first at 4 1/2" long.  Then I cut strips off of the main piece at random angles.

  Next I laid these strips on my grid paper and stamped the leaves from Forever Fern stamp set on them using Granny Apple Green ink.  

  I then glued these strips to a 3 3/4" X 5" piece of White CS leaving a thin 1/16" gap between.  I didn't worry about the edges at all.  After I was done I trimmed them off even with the main White CS.

  Next is a fun card playing with the Playful Alphabet and 1/2" strips of this pretty Ombre paper.  I adhered the letters to the end of the paper strip with rolled up mini glue dots and trimmed any excess off that showed around the letter.

  The 'birthday' greeting is from Vine Design and the bottom edge is punched with the Postage Punch.

• More ideas with the Oh So Ombre DSP & A Touch of Ink stamp set; both FREE for just 5 more days!

  February 24, 2021

  The end of Sale-a-Bration is nearing and I had to get one more play in with these two amazing products. A Touch of Ink stamp set & Oh So Ombre Designer Paper.  Both of these are free with a qualifying order through February 28th.

  This sliding latch card is quite unique and fun too.  My friend Karen shared it with us at a recent Team meeting and I had to learn how to make it. She found the idea from Chris Slogar.  It's so cool!

  You need the Classic Label punch, Designer paper and a few punched or die-cut images for the front and inside.

  I chose to use the flower and hummingbird images in this set.  I stamped the flower using both the outline and solid images.  For the hummingbird I stamped the outline image on a scrap of White CS and colored it in with Blends markers.  Then I fussy cut it out and added to the circles.

  This card is so neat!  But you'll definitely want to watch the video below to catch the important 'how to' tips.

  Next is a fun card with a neat masking tip using the leaves in this set.  I stamped them in a 'round' to create a loose wreath.

  Aren't they pretty?!  I feel like these two Sale-a-Bration choices go together perfectly.  The Ombre DSP lets the stamp shine though.  You can get either or both free with an order through February 28th.  Sale-a-Bration ends then and there won't be anymore 'free' with purchase options.  

  Go here to see the A Touch of Ink stamp set and here to see the Oh So Ombre DSP.
