Sunday is the last day to opt in to receive this beautiful pre-cut card kit to go.  It features the stunning Enjoy the Journey designer paper.  

Cards like this one really show it off!

Many of the cards in this kit are fun folds.  Remember that everything is pre-cut for you including die-cuts & punched pieces.  The only thing you have to cut is your brand new designer paper that's included in the card kit.  

Besides a half pack of designer paper you also get shares of three spools of twine and Black Matte dots.  The PDF tutorial is free in the kit.  It's $28 plus shipping and the kits are mailed out at the end of the month.  

I design these cards so all you need are greeting images; this time I featured the Happy Labels stamp set seen here. Add it on to the kit to go and you're just $6 away from a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Contact me here to add on to your kit. Black ink is the only color you'll need to finish the cards.

  On last week's Live video I featured the Fragrant Forest stamp set. Trees are one of my 'go to' choices for card making; I like most botanical images though. I find them comforting and versatile and this large background stamp is truly beautiful. 

  Save

  I kept my colors to White & Pretty Peacock. If you ever struggle with color combos try just one with White or Vanilla; they're usually quite beautiful. 

  Dies used here include the Countryside Corner dies (2023-24 annual catalog) & Forever Forest dies (2023 Holiday catalog) for the die-cut mountains on the bottom of the card . The greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies; a definite must have! See the Fragrant Forest stamp set here. 

  Here's the inside view:

  You might wonder just how I achieved the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the card. Watch the video here. 

  I cut my stamp apart!

  Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile!  And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp.  Try it!

• How to get more use of your Fragrant Forest stamp; cut it up!

  December 12, 2023

  ---

  I shared this pretty card in last week's Live video. I featured the Fragrant Forest background stamp set seen here in all 3 projects. 

  Save

  Today's card also features the Beary Cute stamp set & punch. It was available in a bundle but unfortunately the punch has sold out now.  But the stamp set is still available. 

  I used Night of Navy with Mossy Meadow here. I stamped the entire White layer with the background stamp (watch the video with tips on getting even coverage with a background stamp) then cut the circle using the new Deckled Circle dies. I added it to a larger Navy Deckled circle die-cut which covered up the die-cut line from the first circle cut. 

  The bears were stamped in Balmy Blue ink but in hindsight I'd like them in a dark gray ink on White.  The lower strip for the greeting is torn.

  Are you wondering how I achieved the inside trees image without inking the entire stamp? Here's how!

  Save

  I was trying to mask the stamp but it has lots of little pine needles between the tree layers.  It wasn't working so I thought, 'why aren't I trimming the stamp?'.  I have no problem doing it; it just isn't my first thought.  It works like a gem and makes it so much easier to use this pretty stamp set!

  Save

  Do you cut your stamps apart? I tend to do it with images that have a greeting with it. Or if I like part of a greeting and want to use it separately. Honestly they fit right back together when put onto your block.  It just makes sense!  I encourage you to try it.
