Artist of the Month Sending Smiles cards!

June 23, 2022

Each month my Flowerbug's Team has a featured 'Artist of the Month'. For June, Marilyn chose to use the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.

She made 5 projects and I'm showing the first three here:

Her card base is Orchid Oasis and the flowers are stamped in Orchid, Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive. The flower centers and leaves are separate images so it's easy to have multiple colors on your flowers.

She layered the two 'Sending' dies using our awesome Adhesive Sheets; no glue mess! The Birthday Wishes greeting is heat embossed and die-cut with one of the long dies in the bundle. The background texture is the Quatrefoil embossing folder seen here.

Next is a simple card with just a few layers using Fresh Freesia and Parakeet Party.

I love the stamped background she did using Versamark. The White layer is textured with the Painted Texture folder. The Brass Butterflies are the perfect finishing touch!

Her measurements are 2 7/8" X 3 7/8" for the White and 3" X 4" for the Parakeet Party.

Next is a fun fold card featuring the new hostess paper pack called Design a Daydream. Anyone can get this with hostess benefits if the order is over $150.

Here's a tip on making this diagonal fun fold card. Cut your card base at 4 1/4" X 11" and score it at 5 1/2". Now with your card base laying flat and horizontally, cut off the upper left half of this card base on a diagonal. You'll add the layers of card stock and DSP to that but flip it before adhering it to the main card.

She used the Layering Circles dies for her greeting. I love that you can personalize your greetings with so many options. This was one of my top 3 sets in the new Annual Catalog. In fact it was one of the ideas I shared with Stampin' Up! for my Million Dollar stamp set!

There are 22 stamps in the set and 14 dies!

Bunny Punch Art; a Pillow Box treat

March 26, 2020

I made this project on this week's Facebook Live. Join me at 11 am each Tuesday here.

I have seen a few of these cute punch art bunnies and wanted to make some!

Save

I'll be sending one of these to my 6 year old granddaughter; who loves animals and chocolate.

It's just two punches to create one; the Medium Daisy and Balloon Bouquet punches. I used Crumb Cake and Blushing Bride card stock. The pom pom 'tail' totally makes it a bunny! These pom poms are from the Birthday Bonanza suite but sadly they are currently unavailable; they're out of stock. I hope they get more in soon.

That fun swirled die-cut circle is from the Painted Label dies on page 26 of the mini catalog. They are also currently unavailable but hopefully they'll be back soon. The Poppies products have been very popular!

Save

These pillow boxes are in our annual catalog on page 172. See them here.

Inside the pillow box I added 6 chocolate nugget candies that are wrapped with our cute gingham designer paper. I've been featuring this paper a lot lately. We have it in every color; that's 50 colors! It's part of a 6 X 6" Designer Series Paper on page 168 of the annual catalog. Or see it here.

Save

The greeting is from the A Wish for Everything. It has 38 stamps! It's one of my picks for your free stamp set that you can choose in your Starter Kit. Why not get a nice big valued stamp set free? Details below; or click here.

Remember that if you want to purchase some of these items to order this month. Why not get something extra free with your order!

Reflection Technique with Mountain Air

March 25, 2020
I honestly didn't know I'd enjoy creating with the Mountain Air bundle as much as I do. I didn't think it would be so easy to work with!

Even this reflection technique is simple to create. Do you know why? Because of the reversible nature of these stamps. The mountain image is textured on one side, creating the pretty mountain peaks on this card. The mountain shadow/reflection on the water is made with the same stamp but using the solid side.

Save

This card is part of my free written projects tutorial for anyone who placed an online order from me in March. And it's also free to anyone who orders the Mountain Air bundle too! You can see this bundle here.

If you order it in March you can get a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Below I show each stamp in three ways. First is the detailed side of the stamp, next is the flat side and lastly you see them together. Reversible stamps are so neat and Stampin' Up! is super clever to create them!

Save

Details for the card above:
1. I stamped the mountains first, then the trees underneath.
2. I turned the trees stamp upside down and without reinking, stamped them again for a reflection.
3. Next the mountain reflection.
4. Lastly I sponged a bit of light blue on the sky and darker blue for water.
5. The greetings are from the Well Written dies and Well Said stamp set.
6. Colors are Mossy Meadow, Pacific Point and Smoky Slate

Well Dressed; a great manly stamp set!

March 24, 2020

How are you all doing? Staying home and safe; if you can? I know some people have to work and those of us who are not really appreciate you! I feel for you! It's a scary world out there right now. Hopefully a little craft therapy will help you stay in a positive state of mind. It's a unique situation that we've never dealt with before. We're just not used to being restricted!

Here's a cute card perfect for the men in our lives. It's made with the new Well Dressed stamp set seen here in the 2nd release of Sale-a-Bration products.

Save

I believe it's Smoky Slate with Basic Gray and a pop of Crushed Curry and Pool Party. The images are all stamped on die-cut Stitched Rectangles. Behind those is a piece of Neutrals designer paper. I've been featuring this paper the last few days since I know many people haven't noticed it in our annual catalog. We have patterns in every single color we carry in 6 X 6" packs!

You can see them all here.
