Striking Botanical Textures card kit or tutorial; Black & White with pops of color!


Many of us love Black & White designer series paper and the new Botanical Textures DSP fills that need.  I love adding pops of color to the Black & White colors!  Here is another new card kit option for March: 

Many of the cards are fun fold layouts.  Reserve your pre-cut card kit or choose the PDF tutorial option.  

This kit includes the following:

  • 10 pre-cut cards with die-cuts and punched pieces
  • 1/2 pkg. Botanical Textures Designer Series Paper (6" X 12)
  • a share of 1/4" White ribbon
  • a share of new Neutral Matte dots
  • the PDF tutorial with measurements, step by step directions, photos and a supply list

The PDF tutorial will be sent to you via email immediately after payment; please check your junk mail.  The pre-cut kit and product will be mailed out at the end of March, barring any product supply issues. 

You'll need adhesives, a paper trimmer to cut your new DSP, greeting images, adhesives & Black ink.  I used the So Sincere stamp set for my greetings; but you can substitute others easily. 

This pre-cut kit costs $31 plus shipping and is found here.  

The PDF tutorial includes step by step instructions, photos, a supply list and measurements. This tutorial is $16 and can be seen here. 

Remember I have lots of kits or tutorials available at my Shop here.  Save money on shipping when you purchase more than one.

  • Hippest Hippos; lots of creative ideas for you!


    Today I'm sharing some wonderful swap cards I received from other talented Demonstrators – all featuring the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  They're both free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order during July & August. 

    But remember these Sale-a-Bration items are only available while supplies last.  Already they are out of TWO choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The Rings of Love 12" DSP and the Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes.  So if you have something from the SAB catalog on your wish list; get it soon!  

     

    What an amazing scene Amanda created here!  So many details!  I especially appreciate that she colored her hippo in Pool Party; who says they have to be gray?

    Her background is made with the Rays of Light stamp seen here.  The rest is all Sale-a-Bration items.  Her colors include Pool Party, White, Crumb Cake & Crushed Curry

    She stamped the greeting from Amazing Phrases and fussy cut it, placing it between 'waves'. She added Wink of Stella to her water.  The little splashes of water & the life preserver truly make this scene complete!

    One of my favorites was made by Gwen.  The way she added ribbon for a 'towel' on the silver/metal tub is genius!! 

    ~~~ 

    Kelly created a cute scene mostly with the Hippo dies.  Her colors are Smoky Slate, Real Red & Balmy Blue.  The little water splash die-cuts add motion to the scene!

    Mary, one of my Flowerbug team members, made this cute card for her Card Club this month. She used a blending Brush with Flirty Flamingo ink for a soft background.  The lights and bow at the top are from the Tree Lot dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  See them here.

    This cute card was made by Amy Storrie.  I love the sunglasses!  The other neat thing she did was to use the Hippo dies along with the Stitched Circle in the Beautiful Shapes dies so they match up perfectly!  Her Designer Paper is the Cottage Gingham in the Holiday catalog.  

    You can see the Hippest Hippos stamp set here and the Hippo dies here.  Get them both free with a $100 online order and you'll also receive my free July cards kit!  Offer good through Saturday, July 30th. 


    Get a free card class in the mail with a $55 order from July 1-30th.

  • Cows or Hippos? Your choice!


    Here's another adorable card I shared in my video yesterday.  I featured projects with the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  This time I turned them into cows!  It's so easy to change them up!  

    I simply left the main body white and added splotches of Black spots here and there.  I colored their faces and bellies in with a Light Petal Pink blends marker. 

    I used our new Masking Paper to add 'grass' on the lower part of the card.  I used Blending Brushes for this and the sky.  

    I had left over packets from Club and made a bunch.  I sent them out as thank you cards for online orders.  Did you get one?   

    Here's a choice for you; which do you prefer?  I shared the lower right card yesterday and changed it up from hippos to cows.  Either works in my opinion!  Get the details in yesterday's post here. 

    The measurements are listed in the photo below.  

    And here's the video below; I hope you enjoy it!
