Textures & Frames; who knew you could create such fun & variety?!

At first this stamp set baffled me; what would I do with it?  Well leave it up to the creativity of others to spark my own!  I got some ideas online and all of a sudden I couldn't stop! 

I shared all of these cards and tips on making them on this week's Tuesday FB Live.  Look!

The card above is my favorite.  It truly makes me smile!  That sentiment is from the In Your Words stamp set in the back of the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with a $300 order through Sept 30th.  See it here. 

IN YOUR WORDS HOST CLING STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

You may wonder how I achieved that perfectly shaped smile on these faces.  I searched all of my stamp sets for a circle shape and found one in the cat in the Cute Halloween set.  Watch the video here or seen below to see how I did it.  The eyes are clear rhinestones colored Black with my Blends marker.  The colors are Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Fresh Freesia and Pacific Point. 

In the video I also share a neat tip on getting a smaller Postage shape from our Rectangular Postage Stamp punch.  

If you love quirky and unique get this while you can.  This fun Textures & Frames stamp set is free with a $50 through the end of September. *stock up on your favorites and earn it free!

This next card uses the same solid circle image to create a colorful background for the nice, large greeting in the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set.  I also used the Basic Border dies to create the eye catching rick-rack border trim.

These colors include Fresh Freesia, Bermuda Bay & Granny Apple Green.

Next I added some vellum dragonflies to a colorful column on this White card using the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set and the Dragonflies punch.

The greeting is also from the wonderful In Your Words stamp set; I fussy cute it and popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I love this one too!  It's cased from my Team Member Tracey.  I had to make one in these colors.

The die-cut swirl is from the Painted Labels dies and again the greeting is from the In Your Words stamp set.

I was inspired by the card on the lower right (seen by other Demo's) to create one with TALL candles!  I used my Stamparatus for both of these cards!  Watch how in the video below or click here.

These colors include Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point & Crushed Curry. The greeting is from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set. 

Which is your favorite??

And lastly is a simple card using the open circle image and a few stars die-cut with the Stitched Stars dies and our Rainbow Glimmer paper.

  • Quick card Ever Eden designer paper strips; just a few days left!

    On my last Monday's FB Live I shared these pretty cards; they feature the Ever Eden specialty designer paper. Click here to watch the video. 

    Diagonal strips ever eden.. Save

    The greeting and butterflies are from upcoming catalogs in January.  The stamp is called Friendly Hello and the butterflies are little, bitty brass adhesive-backed gems. There is one more new items on this card; it's a punch called the Bough punch. Above it's in Soft Succulent shimmer vellum & Metallic card stock.  It punches both! 

    This pretty paper is a special promotion.  You won't find it in any catalog and it's retiring on January 3rd. It's available while supplies last. The colors are gorgeous together – Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Gold & White.  See it here. 

    Diagonal Strips Ever Eden Save

    I shared another version of this strip technique here.  Totally different! 

    Diagonal strips cards Save

    Tips: 

    • I start out with a 2 1/4" X 4 3/4" piece of neutral CS.  This is what I adhered the strips of Designer Paper to. 
    • I added Seal adhesive over the entire piece and added the strips one by one. 
    • Apply one strip across the middle at an angle first. Then keep filling in. 
    • I trimmed the excess off the edges once I had it well covered with strips.  
    • My DSP strips measure between 1/4" and 5/8" wide and about 3" long.  It doesn't matter how wide your strips are; it looks great if they're different widths.  
    • Add dimensionals to the back of this piece for added dimension. 
    • Add a greeting and accents if desired.

  • Geometric fun with an Ombre’ effect; video tutorial too!

    I've been sharing ideas & techniques featuring the Plenty of Patterns masks from a recent FB Live video. 

    Today it's an Ombre' effect created with a grid mask, 4 colors of ink and Blending Brushes. 

    Plenty of Patterns ombre grid Save

    The colors I used are from top to bottom: Pale Papaya, Calypso Coral, Polished Pink and Melon Mambo. I used our Blending Brushes to achieve this smooth blended look.  See them here. I love them; they're so worth investing in.  And the nice thing is that the ink can be rinsed out to use them in any color next time.

    I used the grid mask in the set of 4 seen below & here.

    I'm sure you noticed the hexagonal greeting die-cuts.  This is part of a new die-cut set called Beautiful Shapes dies coming out in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog.  And the Adhesive-Backed Hexagons coordinate wonderfully.  These embellishments come in a package of three colors – Black, Blushing Bride & Just Jade.

    I added a zig-zag of ribbon behind my greeting image; see my easy method in the video.
