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. 

Softly Sophisticated with Softly Stippled Save

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!

  • Over the Moon Fun-Fold card

    My friend Marilyn made this card for a swap with her Card Club this month.  Many of my Club gals swap cards every other month.  They are loving this and actually 'using' their products!  

    It's made with the 'Over the Moon' stamp set seen here.

    Isn't it cute?  It's a fun fold card where the front panel swings open on the bottom.

    The black spots look like patterned paper but they're stamped using the 'Love What You Do' stamp set seen here.  Aren't they perfect?!!!

  • Positive Thoughts with Nature’s Thoughts dies; stamp once but get two layers!

    These pretty cards were made on one of my recent Facebook Live videos. See it here:

    The Positive Thoughts stamp set is easily a big favorite from the January – June Mini catalog. And now we have dies that coordinate with it called Nature's Thoughts; see them here. 

    Positive Thoughts duo sponged Save

    I stamped both white layers at the same time; I believe this technique is called double (or triple) time stamping.  After stamping I sponged the edges and used the stitched rectangle die from the Nature's Thoughts set to cut out the top layer.  Next add it to the next layer before adding to your card.  Easy! 

    Positive Thoughts Grape Save

    The colors here are Bermuda Bay and Gorgeous Grape.  See the detail on the dies here?  Gorgeous! 

    Positive Thoughts Grape Save

    These colors are Blueberry Bushel with Bermuda Bay.  I also sponged the die-cut feathers and sponged those too.  That little butterfly is also from the Nature's Thoughts dies.  

    These dies are part of the Coordination Product Release available now; while supplies last.  Here's a link to the Positive Thoughts stamp set.

  • Sending Flowers Die creates a beautiful circle of flowers!

    We made this pretty card at my Flowerbug's Team meeting last month. It features the new Sending You Flowers die that's available in the Coordination Product Release.  You can see all 5 new items here:

    This unique die cuts out the center of your paper; not the outside.  It gives you a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a frame.  That cute greeting banner is also part of the die set. 

    Details:

    • The greeting is from the Timeless Tulips stamp set and is heat embossed in White embossing powder on Calypso Coral CS.
    • The ribbon is the 1/4" White crinkled ribbon colored with the Dark Pool Party Blends marker.
    • The flowers and stems are colored with Blends markers; they color so easily! 
    • That pretty designer paper behind the window is the Follow Your Art paper in the annual catalog on page 165.
