The Sunshine & Rainbows DSP is one of the happiest group of papers I've seen in awhile.  It's 6 X 6" in size and one of the free choices during our Sale-a-Bration promotion through February 28th.  It's free with any $50 order; see it here. Pair it with the Rainbow of Happiness Bundle (seen here) to add additional patterns and rainbow-themed greetings.

Every few weeks on Monday nights I host a Stamp with Me Live where you can stamp along with me, using whatever products you already own.  *I share the products & measurements 2 days before the Live on my FB Page. (see them below)

Did you know there are prizes?? After the video I post a 'Let's Share' post where you can share a photo of your cards.  Ikeep it open for 2 weeks & draw a door prize among those posted.  

Here are both versions I made:

• Fun Fold Cards with Flowering Foils specialty DSP

  March 23, 2020

  ---

  There's a simple way to change up a white foil accented paper into colored foil paper.  With the direct to ink technique.  'What's that?'  It's where you tap or rub the ink pad directly onto your paper.  Yes; you can do that! Look at these cards that feature the Flowering Foils specialty designer series paper.  This gorgeous paper is still in stock and it's FREE with any $50 order!

  All but the bottom right card has been 'inked' with a water based ink pad.  On the upper left is Calypso Coral, the top right is Black memento and the bottom left is Bermuda Bay and Pool Party. 

  I showed this technique on one of my latest Facebook Live videos.  I have one each Tuesday at 11 am CT here. You can see it below.

  March 19, 2020

  I made this cute, springy card on Facebook Live yesterday.  It features the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set and Small Bloom punch.  Both are free right now with an order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.

  That cute vase is made with the Tailored Tag punch.  Punch from patterned paper and cut it in half!

  You can see all of our free products here on the Sale-a-Bration page.  The Thoughtful Blooms stamp set is full of cute floral images and sweet greetings. 

  Save

  It coordinates with the Small Bloom punch seen here.  *This punch may return in the annual catalog this summer but you can get it free now! 

  I used a bit of the Brights 6 X 6" designer series paper.  That's where the cute gingham designs come from.  Did you know we have gingham paper in every single color right now?  Each of our 6 color families have an assorted package with every color in the pack!  So cool!  The photo only shows one color but includes them all. See them all here.

  Details:

  • White stitched rectangle is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies
  • Daffodil layer is 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"

  • Vase is made with the Tailored Tag punch
  • The greeting is punched with the Classic Label punch
  • the gingham paper is 1" X 2" – 2 pieces; one for the top and one for the bottom.  No waste underneath the layers!
