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! 

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. 

Here's a picture of the Lovely & Sweet bundle I used here. See it online here.

  • Easy Pinwheel ‘Patch’ cards with video!


    Last night I featured Pinwheel cards on my FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  I shared my method of making these easily in the video below. 

    Here's my favorite!

    The card above is made with Polished Pink CS, Pattern Play DSP, Dots & Checks embossing folder duo and In Symmetry stamp set.  I colored the white ribbon with Polished Pink blends.  

    Here's the video: 

    This next card featured Bumblebee with the 2020-22 In Color prints and the cute buffalo check (Pattern Party Hostess DSP seen on page 171). 


    Below are the cards I made featuring Sweet Symmetry DSP seen here.  It's one of 9 designer paper packs that will be on sale in July! 

    The card bases are Calypso Coral, ink and layers are Night of Navy.

  • Hat’s Off; a neat bundle with so many possibilities. Video tutorial too!


    The Hat's Off bundle was a bit of a sleeper to me when I first saw it.  But seeing what other's created with it made me buy it.  

    Once I played with it, I absolutely loved it!  See this bundle here.

    I created this card for my June card clubs.  

    I chose these colors; Gray Granite, Real Red, Crushed Curry and Misty Moonlight.  I stamped the background stars with Versamark ink.  I love the tone on tone this ink pad provides. 

    The stars are from the Stitched Stars dies and the texture is from the Checks & Dots embossing folder duo seen here. 

    Scroll down to watch the video. 

    Can you see the stitched detail on the hat and the emblem?  These dies are fabulous!  This bundle is a fabulous price point; just $35 for the set & dies!

    Measurements:

    • Gray Granite card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      Real Red 2" X 5 1/4"
      White greeting 3/4" X 3 1/4", inside is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Misty Moonlight & Bumblebee CS for die-cuts

    Here's the video for you:

  • Annual HUGE Stamping Sale is Saturday!!


    Each year my customers and I host a HUGE crafting sale. We sell our excess product to make room for more; or to make money to buy more! 

    This year we have over 30 people participating and this is what is looks like!  Remember most but not all is Stampin' Up! but it is all paper crafting items.  

    This first picture is just a quarter of our 25 tables.  There's lots more inside and out. 

    It's in Minot, ND this Saturday, June 26th from 9-3 pm at 429 Cedon Drive.  People who shop at our sale are so happy with the deals they've gotten.  They never want to miss one.

    It's absolutely amazing and the selection and prices are crazy!  It's actually hard for me to see some of the Stampin' Up! products sell at these ridiculous prices.  But then again, what good does it do sitting on a shelf?!  

    Here are some photos of our set up this year: 





    If you live near me in Minot, ND I hope you can come.  If you don't, well I sincerely apologize for teasing you! 

    I hope you understand, but I cannot shop for anyone long distance.  There just isn't time as we are open for just a few hours & tear down immediately after the sale while everyone is there to help. It takes a lot of people for this sale to run smoothly. 

    *If you want to come next year we traditionally hold it the last week of June. 

    I am planning a BOGO the end of July and hope to offer my retired products online to everyone.
