So Much Happy card with video

August 24, 2020

We made this eye-catching, birthday card at my July card clubs last month. It features the fun So Much Happy bundle.

I also used the Brights & In Color designer paper for the balloons and the Rainbow Glimmer paper for the pennant die-cut & bitty stars. They had a choice of Magenta Madness, Granny Apple Green or Coastal Cabana for their card. That cute White greeting die is from the Hippo & Friends dies.

The dies in this bundle especially caught my eye; I think they're super versatile! I just love the window the 'Happy' die creates! Click here to see it.

A Stunning Christmas to Remember card

December 20, 2021

The picture does not do this card justice! It's stunning in person!

Save

I received it from Bobby, one of my Flowerbug team members. It's elegant in the all White & Gold colors. She added two main layers of the large pine dies; one in white & another in Gold under it offset a bit. Then a few layered pinecones too.

It's made with the Christmas to Remember bundle with White, Gold Foil paper, Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed dots, Gold heat embossing & Gold shimmer ribbon. You can see this bundle here.

Save

The dies are called Christmas Pine Cone dies and can be seen here.

Peaceful Cabin; beautiful!

December 17, 2021

We made this beautiful card at my December card clubs; it features the Peaceful Cabin bundle. Unfortunately the stamp set is already sold out and unavailable. So sad; it's just gorgeous!

Save

I used only White card stock and Misty Moonlight ink. A monochromatic card can be so simple & soothing to the eye. And there's something about a mostly white card that is rich and elegant. It’s cased from a card made by Helen Reed

Save

The texture on the background is made with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder. That is also currently unavailable. But it is in the annual catalog and will be back.

There are two pieces that you stamp first and then die-cut. The background trees is one layer and the cabin and foreground is another. It's so neat how the dies cut the silhouettes out so perfectly.

Save

Measurements:
White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
White layers – for trees – 3 3/4" X 2 3/4", for cabin 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", embossed layer is 4" X 5 1/4"

Star & Snowflake Ornaments; so pretty!

December 16, 2021
I had to give these gorgeous star projects a try! Sara from Stampin' Up! made them for a tree topper but they were one sided. I decided to turn her idea into ornaments by making them 2-sided.

Save

They're made with our Stitched Stars dies seen here. I used the largest and third smallest to make these. I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint DSP but unfortunately it was on the retired list and is sold out now.

You probably wonder where the snowflakes come from. They are called 'Wonderful Snowflakes' and they also just sold out! The retiring list can be so hard; items you want can be gone in an instant!

Save

You need a good stack of Dimensionals between each layer like this:

Save

You can see why you need a smaller star inside; to support the stacks of Dimensionals. *There's a second stack under that smaller star. You'll add a second large star on top of the dimensional stack seen above.

Tips:
- I found a stack of 4 to work best.
- I added a rolled up mini glue dot to the tip of each star point to secure them together. It's not necessary but does finish if off so they stay closed.
- Add the cord with a glue dot to one of the star points.
They were so fun to make I couldn't stop! I plan to add these to my cookie trays or to Christmas presents instead of a traditional bow.

I thought this last one would look sort of ho hum in this pattern. But once I added our Red Rhinestones to the snowflake it sure came to life!

Below is the video to see exactly how to make these pretty ornaments. They're the third project I share.
