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. 

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.  

The greeting is from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set.  I love how easy you can create a masculine card with this unique stamp set!  

Don't miss out if you want this set! It's unavailable after Sept 30th! You'll also get 10 free hand-made cards from me with a $50 order!  Details are below.

  • Add color to the Sunflower 3D embossing folder. Wow!


    You’ve likely seen lots of cards made with the new Sunflower 3D embossing folder but have you seen any like this?!  

    We made this card at my August card clubs and it was a big hit!  Turquoise might not be a traditional color but it sure is pretty!  This technique will work beautifully with yellows & oranges too.

    We started by embossing a white layer of card stock with the embossing folder. Then using the debossed side, added Coastal Cabana ink to the petals with a sponge dauber.  

    Next we did the ‘direct to paper’ technique – rubbing our ink pad directly onto the embossed card stock – with Pecan Pie ink.  After that we did the same with Early Espresso ink.  This picked up the fine details in the embossing.  Gorgeous!!

    This Sunflower 3D embossing folder has been out of stock twice already and it’s in low inventory again!  You can see it here. Get it while it’s available!  Online Exclusive products are while supplies last….. 

    Get the free project sheet for this pretty card here.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Multicolored Sunflower card

    Below is the video I made showing this technique.  I hope you watch it.  Don’t forget to follow me on YouTube here or Facebook here.

  • Changes are coming!


    Stampin’ Up! announced a few upcoming changes last week.  I mentioned and explained them in this video.  

    1. First up is the change in the type of stamps they’ll be offering.  Currently we have both red rubber/cling and clear photopolymer.  Starting in November all new stamps will be clear photopolymer.  

    Why? They are having difficulty sourcing the product needed to produce cling or red rubber stamps.  In addition they are not selling as well as photopolymer do.  It seems most people like the clear stamps; my customers have mentioned this to me too. 

    So for stamp sets from the current Annual and Holiday catalog here’s how it works going forward.  Once they run out of stock of the cling stamps they’ll switch over to clear photopolymer.  

    2. Next is the packaging.  Because most stamps will be in photopolymer after November they will be in new packaging – clear sleeves.  These will be approximately 5″ X 9″ in size.  They are phasing out the DVD cases.  However they will continue to offer them in 4 packs like they currently do.  See them here.  They will also offer bulk packs of the new thin sleeves as well.  

    3. The die-cut sleeves will change too and will be the same as the stamp set sleeves. They’ll now have photos of the dies on the cover like you see below. 

    4.  Lastly they are discontinuing our Stampin’ Write markers. The Blends markers are outselling these by far. And because they were originally intended to be used to color directly on red rubber stamps (as well as coloring) they won’t be needed for this.  

    In my opinion I love coloring with the Blends so much I would never use these for coloring. They leave lines on larger images where the Blends do not.  They color so smoothly!  

    All of our Stampin’ Write markers are now on the Last Chance list and will be available while supplies last.  If you love them I’d grab some while you can. See them here.
