Splendid Day cards with an easy background technique; video too.

Check out this pretty card using the Splendid Thoughts bundle.  I shared how to make it in a recent Live video seen here.

I think the Brick background is so pretty with the die-cuts.  I used the 'Direct to Paper' technique.  I used the Brick Wall embossing folder on the Calypso Coral CS and then used an open White Craft ink pad to lightly brush ink onto the textured CS.  I purposely keep my White Craft ink less inked than desired because I love doing this!  If yours is well inked you may want to use a sponge instead.

The colors include White, Calypso Coral, Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink.  The Splendid Day Specialty designer paper is gorgeous and full of Foil & Copper accents on one side and subtle prints on the other.  Here's what the entire suite looks like.  It will be available tomorrow, July 1st.

I stamped a few of the die-cuts and the greeting in Smoky Slate ink.  I fussy cut the greeting and added it to the curved 'half circle' die-cut over the ribbon.  I'll share more Splendid Thoughts projects tomorrow.

  • Slim Sayings bundle is so versatile!

    Here are a few more samples featuring the Slimline Sayings bundle that is retiring this month.  See yesterday's cards here. 

    This first card features the Hues of Happiness designer paper. 

    Slim Sayings Hues of Happiness Save

    The pretty ombre design in the Hues of Happiness DSP is beautiful with the beautiful die-cut design.  I used the Tailor Made Tags for my greeting layers and stamped the 'one' on a piece of So Saffron to make it pop. 

    Here's the Slim Sayings stamp set; I love this greeting set so much. The variety of fonts and occasions are so versatile.  

    SLIM SAYINGS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The card on the right below is simply three colors of card stock – Navy, Soft Succulent and Just Jade.  I cut out one in each color to be able to make 3 cards!  Just mix & match to fill in the center with the chevron pieces. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
    • die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 8 3/8" X 3 3/8"

    Sun Prints Slimline Save

    My card base is White and I added a piece of Sun Prints Designer Paper behind the chevron die-cut.  Scroll down for measurements and the video too. 

    Did you know we have Slimline Envelopes that perfectly match these dies and a typical slim line card?  They carried over into the new Annual Catalog too.  They come in 3 colors; White, Smoky Slate & Soft Succulent. See them here.  

    Sun Prints Slimline Save

    I used the Slim Saying stamp set along with the Nature's Prints bundle from the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog.  See the Slim Saying stamp set here and the Nature's Prints bundle here. 

    At club they chose either a birthday card or a graduation card; it works for both. And some made theirs into a wedding or anniversary card!

  • I’ve got more ideas yet! Botanical Layers bundle cards with video

    I challenged myself to use each pattern of the vellum included in the Lovely Layers vellum.  You can see it here; you get 60 sheets in the pack!  It includes 4 different prints and many sheets of plain vellum too. 

    This first card has a printed circle on it.  The easy solution was to add a die-cut wreath.  I used three sets of dies here; the Natural Prints, Amazing Thanks & Hydrangea dies.

    My colors are Parakeet Party, Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The vellum in the kit is 1/4" larger than the 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" white layer.

    Remember that it helps to place a White layer under your vellum to see it's true color.  

    BOTANICAL LAYERS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Here are two cards; both using the Lovely Layers Vellum.

    For this card I textured it with the new Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder.  Embossing vellum is a wonderful way to add it to your projects; it's texture and opaqueness is so beautiful.

    The colors are Polished Pink & Parakeet Party.  I used the Poppy Moments and Natural Prints dies for the greenery and the Nature's Prints stamp set for the stamped leaves and greeting.
