String Art Technique; fun, easy & the results are a big WOW!

I shared the String Art technique on last week's Live video.  It's been years since I tried it and it brought back how much fun it is!

That cool swirly, colorful image is made with a length of twine, ink refills and a phone book.  Yes; a phone book!  Any book will do but I a phone book is okay to get inky.  

And another neat thing about this technique is you get two finished panels from one technique!

You might notice the card on the right has thicker lines.  I believe that piece was on the bottom and had more moisture on it.  

I used Bermuda Bay and Parakeet Party ink refills for this technique, along with about 14" of baker's twine. After the piece was created I let it dry and textured it with an embossing folder.  

*Bermuda Bay card stock, ink pad and refill are already sold out.  Products can go so fast on the Last Chance list!

Other products used: 2022-24 In Color dots seen here (Just $4; reduced by 50%!), the Quatrefoil embossing folder, Butterfly Kisses 6 X 6" DSP, 2022-24 In Color Baker's Twine pack. 

You really need to watch this technique in action.  It's so much easier than to try to explain it.  

Watch the video here or click on the image below to see this special technique. It's the third project in the video.

  • Triple Accordion fun fold card with Lights Aglow DSP; easy but WOW!

    I love this unique fun fold card; I'm calling it a triple accordion card.  I demonstrated it on this week's FB Live video.  See it here on my YouTube channel.

    I featured the Lights Aglow specialty designer paper seen here.  It's so beautiful in Cherry Cobbler, Soft Succulent, Black, Evening Evergreen and pretty gold foil accents. Luckily it's back in stock right now. 

    LIGHTS AGLOW 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save
     

    Here's what the card looks like folded flat.  It shows off multiple sheets of the designer paper and fits in a standard A2 envelope, measuring 5 1/2" X 4 1/4".

    I used a few other products here; especially gold themed items. 

    Gold foil and Gold Distressed paper, Elegant Metallic trim, Gold embossing powder & Festive Pearls.  I also used the Twinkling Lights and Layering Circle dies and the Brightest Glow stamp set.

    For variety I added some Evening Evergreen to the next card.

    Measurements: 

    • Cherry Cobbler card base 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 2 ½”, 3 ¾”, 6 ¾” & 8 ¼”
    • DSP 2 pieces at 4” X 4”, the center Cherry square is 3". Vanilla 2 ½” X 4”

    Below you can see the gold tree & dotted die-cut snowflakes & garland from the Twinkling Lights dies here.  Again, the greetings are all from the Brightest Glow stamp set seen here. 

    The greeting die-cut for the 'joy' is from the Potted Succulents dies; a few loops of gold cord are added underneath it.

    Which one do you prefer; the card with some Evergreen or the one all Cherry Cobbler?

  • Look what you can do with the Charming Landscapes embossing folders

    I shared a fun way to use the Charming Landscapes embossing folders in this week's FB Live video.  Look! 

    Charming Landscapes Save

    After I textured White card stock with the folders I trimmed the excess off and adhered it over a piece of Lights Aglow designer paper and then onto my White card base.  So simple with just a little bit of fussy cutting.  See the Charming Landscapes embossing duo here.

    The greeting is from the Brightest Glow stamp set, heat embossed with Gold embossing powder.  A few loops of gold cording is added to the back.  

    Here's another version; a bit more fussy cutting on this one though! 

    Charming Landscapes Save

    This one did take more time to trim….  I added light So Saffron Blends marker and Wink of Stella to the little village houses.

    What do you think?  I love the elegance of the Black, White & Gold colors.

    This month one of my kits to go features the Santa Express Memories & More cards seen here.  I sincerely enjoy playing with these cards & the many extra elements included in them.  

    Besides the 10 cards & envelopes they'll make with the kit and PDF tutorial I've created some bonus cards they can make as well.  Here's a peek at them:

    There's no stamping on any of these; all greetings and layered pieces are from the kit itself.  

    Notice the cursive words and the stars?  These are wooden elements included in the kit!  I colored them with Blends markers.  They're actually nice and thin; maybe around 1/16" in height.  

    Here's a link to this kit to go. It's while supplies last; so opt in soon!
