Wow – Texturing Vellum is a fabulous effect! Check out this pretty Softly Sophisticated card

I couldn't stop playing with the Softly Stippled designer paper and the Softly Sophisticated bundle!  This card came together by using a sketch layout I saw online.

There are so many neat details on this card; I'll list a few of them.  

• Check out the textured vellum!  It's done with the Softly Sophisticated folder (sale-a-Bration choice). Our vellum cardstock doesn't crack!
• The pretty Softly Stippled designer paper seen here in the background adds even more texture. 
• The dotted rectangle die-cut is from the Everyday Details dies seen here. 
• Check out the ribbon treatment. I tied a bow around the Pool Party ribbon (Sale-a-Bration choice) with the Pebbled Path jute twine – separated into one strand. 
• The stamps are from the Softly Sophisticated bundle seen here – gorgeous greetings and 2-step florals.

I've mentioned it before but I'm finding our new Pebbled Path to be a wonderful neutral color with our soft subtle colors. It's brown but with a slight gray tone to it.  Lovely!

  Today's card is the second one I shared during last week's Live video.  I chose to feature the Labeled with Love bundle. 

  Save

  There's just something classy about a mostly white card. To me it seems like there's more focus on the main element – in this card a pretty butterfly tag. And the texture is a quiet backdrop. 

  Here are some of the products I used:

  • Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here
  • Dashing Designs 3D embossing folder seen here
  • Something Fancy dies seen here

  Save

  Is this your style of card?  Or is it a bit too clean & simple?

  Today's project is from last week's Live video seen here.

  This neat fun fold card features the Lily Pond Lane designer series paper and the Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here. 

  The stamp set is available in a bundle with either a punch or a set of dies.  Love that they have these options to please us all.  

  Save

  My colors include Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Pretty Peacock which I got from the Lily Pond Lane DSP seen here.  I still have a few card kits to go with this adorable designer paper. See them here; while supplies last. 

  Save

  The card layout includes a quarter sheet on the base and a scored/folded 11" X 4 1/4" piece over it.  A few White & DSP layers and that's it!  It's quite simple.  I did fussy cut the butterflies I added to the right panel.

• Team swaps with the Unbounded Love bundle & more

  July 18, 2024

  ---

  Here are a few more of our June Team card swaps.  I shared quite a few last week as well. Our theme was to use a new color along with an old favorite.  

  Lori made this card with Summer Splash and Berry Burst with White. 

  Save

  She added the Unbounded Beauty designer paper, the Deckled Rectangle dies and a Paper Butterfly Accent too.  It's also a fun fold card!

  It's a Dutch Door fun fold.  Making a Dutch Door fold is so simple.  To a full quarter card base you'll add a second layer that opens from the side. Her horizontal layer is 8 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4 1/4". 

  Save

  I like that you cannot see the inside greeting layer until you open the card. The greetings are from the Unbounded Love bundle.  

  ~~~

  Next is a monochromatic card made by Rita. She also used the Unbounded Love bundle.  

  Save

  Her colors include Peach Pie, Black and White. The DSP is the 2024-26 In Color 6 X 6" pack. She added embossed texture to the background.  I especially like how she added that pretty leaf die-cut frame over her stamped greeting.  A fabulous idea where you don't have to cut the greeting layer to match the die-cut exactly. 

  ~~~

  Lastly is a fun celebratory card made by Joan. 

  Save

  She featured the 'Light the Sky' stamp set seen here online.  I love her colors of Summer Splash with Real Red, Black & White.
