These pretty cards are the last of the Monochromatic Team swaps

August 22, 2025

I’ve been sharing our Team swaps this week that all feature a Monochromatic theme. This means the colors should include hues of similar colors.

First is a pretty and soothing card made by Jacki.

She used the Prairie Grass stamp set seen here. Her colors include Very Vanilla with Crumb Cake. Her greeting is from the stamp set seen here.

I love how the grass image repeats itself on the Vanilla layer in the background.

Measurements:

Crumb Cake 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″, 3″ X 4 1/4″
Vanilla 4″ X 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ X 4″

Next is a pretty wedding or anniversary card made by Marla.

She used the Lifetime of Love stamp set seen here and the coordinating dies seen here. I love how these delicate dies inlay so perfectly.

Her colors include Navy, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake & White. She also used a new embossing folder called Jolly Holly Hybrid seen here. These leaves allow her to lift them a bit to add more dimension.

The Designer paper is 2 5/8″ wide and is the Country Lace pack and is discounted and on the Last Chance list now. See it here.

And lastly is this soft & pretty card made by Paula.

Her card features the blue tones of Blueberry Bushel with Azure Afternoon. Her stamp sets are Elements of Text seen here and Textured Notes seen here. The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set seen here.

I hope you enjoyed seeing the beautiful Monochromatic swaps this week. I have a super talented team!

Delicate Dahlias with a 2-toned color technique

August 11, 2021

Here's a card I made for an online swap I participated in. I needed to use an item from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog and the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was my first choice of sets.

It has a large dahlia along with a smaller flower image as well. And both are 2-step stamps with outline and solid, dystinktive images to match. It also has two sets of leaves and 4 wonderful greetings as well!

Save

The triple-rectangles frame is a die-cut called Picture This dies. You get 2 dies in the set; a set of rectangles and one of circles. What I love most about these dies is that you can use both; the small stitched pieces OR the large frame! See it here in the online store.

Save

Can you see the multiple hues of colors on these flowers? I inked the large solid dahlia in Pale Papaya ink first. Then with a sponge dauber I added Calypso Coral ink on the outside and the center. Then huff and stamp. Clean between each inking. The small flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral ink and fussy cut.
