Time of Giving for your Holiday projects with video tutorial.

October 18, 2021

On last Tuesday's FB Live I focused on the Time of Giving bundle in the current 2021 Holiday Catalog. This bundle is for many occasions and more fun and versatile than I thought!

I'll start with the autumn card featuring the baby wipe technique.

Save

Isn't it pretty?! My colors are Bermuda Bay, Pumpkin Pie & Old Olive. Those are the ink refills I used on my baby wipe. If you haven't done the baby wipe technique please watch the video below or click here. It's so simple and all you need is a folded baby wipe and a few colors of ink refills.

The little die-cut leaves on the greeting are also in this bundle. The Gold Fine Art ribbon is from the annual catalog as well as the white die-cut for the greeting. It's in the Stitched So Sweetly set.

Save

All of these images & dies are from this Tidings of Giving bundle seen here.

Next is a beautiful snowflake card that's mostly white but the pop of colors shows off this pretty die wonderfully! It creates a 'window' effect. I die-cut three dies in a row on my White CS and for the soft colors under it I used my blending brushes with Just Jade & Bermuda Bay ink.

Save

For this next card I chose the Santa & sleigh die. As you can see I left a wide border on this one so I could stamp the greeting directly on it. This pretty background paper is from the Beauty of the Earth DSP in the Stampin' Up! annual catalog seen here.

Save

And here is a card using the ornament die. Again I cut three in a row, lowering the die each time. Another bit of the Beauty of the Earth designer paper on the side and a greeting added with the Double Oval Punch. Glittered white ribbon finishes it off.

Save

And below is the video where you can see how I achieved these techniques. I hope you watch! *Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here too!

Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!

January 10, 2020

This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away! Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards.

Save

I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of.

Save

This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in. I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration.

I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog! See them here.

Save

I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.

Two ‘WOW’ technique cards with video

January 9, 2020
This week's Facebook Live video featured two 'over the top' technique cards. I uploaded it on YouTube so everyone could see it whether you're on Facebook or not. (scroll down to see the video)

If you are on FB be sure to follow my page so you catch each week's video on Tuesday's at 11 am CT. Here's the link to my page: www.facebook.com/flowerbugsinkspot

The left card is a shaker card; they're very special and interactive. And not hard at all! Using Window sheets and our Foam Adhesive strips sure make it easy! I used the following products: (click on each one)
The card on the right is stitched with our metallic thread; basically like string art. If you like to cross stitch you will like this fun technique. I timed it and it took me about 8 minutes to finish one heart.

Save

The Heart Doilies make it super simple. I used these products on this card:
The greeting on the Valentine's card is from the Heart to Heart stamp set. I chose to order this one because it's not just for Valentine's Day but it does includes the greeting. That makes it very versatile to me.
