Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay

August 14, 2020

This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies. The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here. Be sure to follow my page so you get notified!

My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies. But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards:

I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock. Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done! So quick & easy!

Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.

Measurements:

Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide

A gorgeous scene made with Wooded Acres; on the Last Chance List

July 3, 2025
I was playing around with the Wooded Acres stamp set and made a pretty scene by adding a blended background.

Save

You may know I love creating pretty scenes with my stamps, ink and blending brushes.

Here are the steps:
1. I stamped this image on a long post-it note and fussy cut the area above the ground off. I stamped it on my White CS and then added the post-it note to mask the sky.
2. Now I added Garden Green ink with a Blending Brush for grass.
3. I removed the post it and replaced it with the other half to sponge the sky. I used Timid Tiger, Calypso Coral and Balmy Blue.
4. I layered it with Black and White card stock.
5. I then stamped the same image on the Balmy Blue card base to extend the trees.
What do you think?

This stamp set is now on sale on the Last Chance List. You can see the stamp set here.

Double Flap fun fold with free project sheet & video tutorial

July 2, 2025

Today I'm sharing the second card I made on last week's video. It's a double flap fold card featuring the Sunrise Sailing bundle.

Save

The colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Strawberry Slush and Daffodil Delight.

I created a mask for the sun with a 1 7/8" circle punched from a post-it note. I used blending brushes & Strawberry Slush and Daffodil Delight inks. I also added just a hint of Strawberry Slush ink on the bottom of the cloud die-cuts.

The Designer Paper is our new 6 X 6" In Color designer paper seen here.

I showcased the Sunrise Sailing bundle seen here. I love the stamp images AND the dies in this bundle. They're wonderful and really spark creativity. There are THREE different size sailboats in the dies!

As you can see in the sample in the photo below you can make a card with just the embossing folder!

Save

You can see in the photo below how the front square flap lifts to the right to reveal a peek at the inside. I added the cloud to the back of this square and placed it so it could 'latch' on the larger cloud to hold the card closed.

Save

I create a free project sheet for this card. I also share it on the same day as my video on my Flowerbug's Stamp & Share FB group here . Download Sunrise Sailing Latch card

You can see the card fully opened below. I love this easy but fun card fold.

You'll find the video tutorial for this card and another Sailing card below. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel while you're watching!

I'll share another card with this bundle on Wednesday.
