Summer Shadow dies & Shaded Summer; a beautiful pairing!

August 27, 2021

I'm sharing our Flowerbug Team swaps featuring Sale-a-Bration choices. This amazing card was created by Paula.

She used the Summer Shadow dies seen here along with the Shaded Summer stamp set. This stamp set is in the Annual Catalog on page 75 and the dies are a free choice during SAB/Sale-a-Bration. However remember that these dies are expected to sell out before the end of September when SAB ends. See them here.

This is also a fun fold card. Her Black card is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and is scored at 2 1/8" X 4 1/4". The front left panel is folded back.

Look at the many layers of die-cuts she added here! Lots of Vellum along with Polished Pink ink and Just Jade & Soft Succulent card stock & inks. Placing the die-cuts on Black really brings out the color & details.

The designer paper on the left panel is from the Pattern Party 12 X 12 Host paper. It's one of the choices you get free with an order over $150; host rewards kick in at this level. See it here or on page 171 in the Annual catalog.

Have a great weekend everyone!

2 ways to add color to a solid image with video & free project sheet

April 11, 2024

Today's project is one we made at my March card clubs; it features the beautiful Quiet Reflection stamp set.

Save

This set is returning in the 2024 Annual Catalog and I'm super glad! It's wonderful for both sympathy or thinking of you cards. And the best part is it's super easy to create with. See the Quiet Reflection set here.

My colors include Shaded Spruce & Starry Sky (retiring In Color). I used a few dies also – Thoughtful Expressions (retired and sold out now) and Garden Meadows dies seen here (for the arch).

Save

Do you know how I achieved the two-toned image of green trees with blue water? It's so simple!

How it's done: I placed my stamp set with the rubber face up. I inked up one half with Starry Sky ink (tapping the rubber with the ink pad) and then the other half with Shaded Spruce. The nice thing about doing this technique with this particular stamp image is that when you place your greeting strip across the image it covers up any white space left un-inked.

Save

I added a few of the Gold Adhesive-backed Dragonflies & Birds seen here. I love these so much! They're super thin and don't add any bulk to your projects.

In the video posted here on YouTube you can see how I made this card and another with an entirely different way to achieve a 2-toned image.

Gorgeous ways to add color to the Quiet Reflection stamp; with video & free project sheet

April 10, 2024

Today I'm sharing one of the projects I featured on last week's Live video. I chose to showcase the Quiet Reflection stamp set and ways you can add color to the solid image.

Save

You can see this stamp set online here. It's not retiring; it will return in the new Annual Catalog. It's a beautiful sympathy set.

I chose to use Starry Sky with Shaded Spruce. The dies are the Thoughtful Expressions dies and sadly they are already out of stock; they were on the retiring list and they've sold out.

Notice the two toned image here. This one is simply a matter of inking in Blue and stamping. Then ink a sponge dauber in green ink and dab over the stamped image. So easy!

I do have a free project sheet with the directions, measurements & supplies list. See it here. Download Quiet Reflection 2-toned
