Shabby Chic Lovely & Sweet card with video tutorial & free project sheet!

Here's the last card made in last week's video featuring the Nature's Sweetness suite. I absolutely love this color palette! 

Lovely & Sweet Pecan Pie Save

It's Pecan Pie with Pebbled Path & Gold accents with a rich monotone look. Look closely at the layout. It's basically a few random layers with only one that's layered.  Adding a few smaller elements creates the balance here. 

Details & tips:

  • Note the distressed edges on a few of the layers. That is done by rubbing your open scissor blade over the edge of the paper.  Fast and fabulous results! *watch how I do it in the video below.
  • The large stamped Pecan Pie layer and the DSP square are both sponged with Pecan Pie ink to age them a bit. 
  • That butterfly is one of our Paper Butterfly Accents colored with a Light Natural Tones blends marker. I added some Gold Enamel Effects in streaks all over it. *see how in the video
  • I added Gold Enamel Effects as berries on the tall leaf die-cut on the left. 

Here's how I stamped the inside.  The greeting is from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set from Sale-a-Bration.

  • Terrific Toadstools fancy fold card

    Today I'm sharing a fabulous fancy fold card Lori made for our Team Sale-a-Bration card swap.  She used the Terrific Toadstools bundle.

    It's a little deceptive but it is a fun fold card; one I haven't seen before too!  Her colors include Melon Mambo, Fresh Freesia, Early Espresso and Granny Apple Green.

    The Terrific Toadstools bundle from the Spring catalog coordinates with the Toadstool Gardens DSP from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. This DSP is free with any $60 purchase from Stampin' Up.

    She used a bunch of NEW products; here's the list:

    • Terrific Toadstool bundle seen here
    • Toadstool Gardens 6 X 6" DSP from the  Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here
    • Spotlight on Nature dies seen here
    • Fresh Freesia seam binding ribbon (SAB catalog) seen here
    • Starstruck embossing folder on the upper flap (SAB catalog) seen here

     

    Below you can see the gatefold and the cute flap that folds down over the front.  She created an amazing card showcasing a ton of new products here! See measurements below.

  • Corners in Bloom fun fold card

    I made this card for our monthly team swap using the Corners in Bloom stamp set.

    I colored the flowers in with Blends markers in Melon Mambo, Peach Pie & Granny Apple Green. The pretty greeting and die-cut are from the Mixed Labels bundle seen here. 

    I added the new Bloom Impressions designer paper on the left side; a free choice with a $60 order during Sale-a-Bration.

    We haven't had many corner shaped stamps for a long time and now we have two!  I love the many options you have with these line art stamps.

    My colors include Peach Pie with Melon Mambo & Black. This fun fold is called a 'Joy' fold where the two flaps overlap each other. It was perfect for this stamped frame.

  • Beautiful Butterflies with Mixed Florals swap card; free project sheet

    Here's one more pretty card I made for an online swap in December.  I just love the colors!  

    Beautiful Butterflies swap Save

    I used Petal Pink, Mossy Meadow & Poppy Parade; all taken from the Mixed Florals designer paper seen here.  It's from our newest Online Exclusives release. See all of the newest items here. 

    There's just something about this layout that I love.  It might be the balance of the vertical & horizontal layers along with the circle.  It just feels right. 

    The greeting and butterfly die-cut are from the new Beautiful Butterflies bundle seen here.  

    BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    There's so many neat things about this new bundle – the wonderful greetings, the pretty Hybrid embossing folder that matches the butterfly die and the fact that there's a large butterfly die that creates a butterfly folded card front like the one below!
