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.

  • A new catalog sneak peek!

    I’ve joined a ton of swaps to get lots of samples for my upcoming New Catalog Open House party on May 2nd. If you’re local stop in between 11:30-1:30 pm that day at my home studio.

    Here’s one of the swaps I made:

    It is made with the Opulent Oasis bundle. This bundle will be available to order on May 5th.

    My colors include Pool Party, Petal Pink and the new Crisp Cantaloupe (card base). I love the colors together! Can you tell there’s a hint of White on some of the raised texture? I rubbed my Craft White ink pad over the surface afterwards.

    Notice that big textured floral element – that is made with something brand new, called Impressions dies.

    Here’s how you use them: I used the die first to cut out the flower like usual. It did not have the deep impression in it with the first cut. Then I put in in the Cut & Emboss machine again with the same die but this time added the new Impressions mat. This floppy, stretchy mat pushes the card stock into the die and gives that deep texture. So cool! I’ve heard you can use other ‘non-impression’ dies with this mat too!

    There are a few new & exciting impression dies coming out in the new catalog on May 5th.

    I hope you’re getting excited about all of the new products that are coming to you in this fabulous new catalog. I know you’ll love it.

    This new All Aflutter bundle is a BIG favorite of mine; I love the coordinating butterfly images and that punch.

    This card is a fun fold layout. Can you see the separation between the White layer and the DSP under it? The textured layer is adhered to just the left side of the card front which leaves an area to slide the right side of the White CS between the layers. It’s so cool!

    I created a free project sheet with measurements for this card. Click here to print or download it.

    It’s so easy to make but you’ll want to watch the video tutorial below will help you understand it.
