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.

  • A CUTE Kite Delight card idea; shared in a video with blending & coloring tips

    Here is another playful card made with the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June Stampin' Up! catalog.  

    Kite Delight clouds Save

    I used a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana ink to create a soft sky background.  Then the kite tails were stamped using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers.  Each kit was stamped using the coordinating color of card stock – Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana.  They are fussy cut since there is not a set of dies to match.  I don't mind this at all since they're easy to cut out. 

    This stamp set is NOT carrying over into the new catalog and will retire at the end of May. See it here:

    I used the Pick a Banner punch on the Highland Heather greeting banner.  The banner & kits are all popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.

    This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot.  It's called a Split Panel card.  The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP.  We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog.  I love these free paper options for hosts!!

    My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody.  A little bit of Coastal Cabana too.  We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers.  You can see the measurements below.

  • New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set

    I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here.  I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd. 

    The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers.

    I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them!  They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.  

    If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th.  See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

    I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder.  But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in.  Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.
