The Sending Smiles bundle is so versatile! Check out these two projects.


Last week I shared three projects with the Sending Smiles bundle seen here.  I think it's one of the best choices in the new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

I also wanted to use the Pretty Prints designer paper and chose the Bermuda Bay sheet in the package.  I also wanted to use one of the new In Colors and settled on Sweet Sorbet. 

Next I had to choose a coordinating color to soften these two vibrant colors and settled on Blushing Bride.  I was so surprised how well these colors combined!  

The next thing that inspired this layout was a card sketch we have been working on in my Flowerbug's Team group.  As you can see I changed the main image to be on the angle.  

Sketches are one of my favorite ways to get inspiration on card layouts. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • DSP 4" square
  • White 2 3/4" square
  • Sweet Sorbet 2 7/8" square
  • Glimmer paper strip 3/8" X 4 1/4"  

Can you see that the flowers are darker in the center and lighter on the outer petals?  I inked the flowers in Sweet Sorbet ink and stamped off once.  Then I used a sponge dauber to add more Sweet Sorbet ink to just the center.  You can see this technique in the video here.  

This next card was a make & take at my New Catalog Launch party a few weeks ago.  I wanted to have a cute but easy card they could make featuring our new In Colors.  

They were able to stamp the flowers easily and perfectly with the Stamparatus. You can see how it's done in the video below.  

One of my favorite thing about this bundle is how versatile the greetings are; so many possibilites! 

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 
  • White layers are 3 3/4" X 5"
  • Starry Sky is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" 

And here's the video; click on the photo below to watch these two cards and one other too.

  • Best of the Clearance Rack!


    I thought I'd highlight a few of my favorite finds on the clearance rack. 

    I ordered this kit for my future daughter-in-law. She loves to stamp & create but doesn't have a lot of products yet.  Our kits are perfect for her.  It's item #158375   See it here. 

    This kit is just $8.80 (it was $22) and includes:
    * Love, Santa Photopolymer Stamp Set
    * Acrylic stamp block
    * Night of Navy Classic Stampin’ Spot
    * Precut pieces (No prep work! Get right to crafting)
    * Makes 12 tags: 3 each of 4 designs
    **Adhesive-backed sequins
    * Adhesive to complete projects
    * Printed designer box for storage or crafting on the go: 9-7/8" x 6-1/2" x 2-3/4" 

    There are so many more kits available in our kit collection. If you're looking for great gifts for crafters most are all inclusive and really do make a fabulous gift! I'm surprised some of them are still in stock!  See them all here.

    Texture Chic Memories & More cards are the perfect start to easy but beautiful cards or memory keeping. 

    They were $10 and are now $4. The item # is 159201 and can be seen here. 

    It includes 50 cards in two sizes and 4 sticker sheets.  They pair perfectly with the Texture Chic Memories & more cards & envelopes!

    There are 20 printed cards and envelopes that coordinate with the M & More cards above. These are big cards – 4 1/4" X 6 1/4". They were $12 and are now $4.80.  Item #159202 

    I love these for quick cards; they're perfect for a beginner stamper or quick cards. I often change them up by trimming the cards or using them in unexpected ways. See them here. 

    There are many more great items left on the Clearance Rack; be sure to check them out right away.

  • Sparkling Snowflakes Easy 5 Card Wonder with free templates & video


    I'm excited to share today's project. You may know this but I LOVE stamping one sheet wonders! I have created many of them and the layers & templates to make them super easy to use. *see them here

    On last week's Live video I shared these pretty snowflake cards; made with my Easy 5 card wonder templates. 

    I used the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set seen here. Snowflakes can be wintery or holiday; they're quite versatile.  I added greetings using the Tailor Made Tags & Stylish Shapes dies with a bit of Elegant trim cording. 

    My colors include Coastal Cabana, Pretty Peacock, Pool Party & Fresh Freesia. 

    I started out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of Basic White card stock. I stamped the snowflakes down the center so some would be on each of the card front pieces.  Each piece measures 3 1/2" X 4 3/4". 

    You can see the stamped pieces below.  There is very little waste.  I love being able to create my own patterns with different color combos.  It's so fun and reminds me why I love stamping! 

    After you've stamped and cut your 5 layers, you can choose to stamp your greetings in the open area or add greetings using a punch or die-cut.

    Now choose a coordinating piece of card stock to create the colored layers for the card fronts. Below is the template with measurements. Again it starts with an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of colored card stock. Each piece measures 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".
