  • In the Country; which do you prefer? ‘Color’ or Black & White? Video & cool tip!

    Happy Valentine's Day!  

    I should be sharing a Valentine card today, but I sent them out to my family last week before I took photos! Sheesh! Here's one by Stampin' Up! using the Love for You bundle; you can see it on page 11 of the Spring Catalog.

    LOVE FOR YOU BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save
      

    Here are a few more cards featuring the In the Country stamp set from our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It's free with any $50 purchase in February.  See it here. 

    I shared multiple ways to use this set and options for coloring too.  I know many people do not want to color every bit of a scene like this. So I shared a variety of alternate card ideas like this one shown here.  

    In the Country both Save

    On the colored version above I simply used my Blending Brushes with Granny Apple Green & Balmy Blue.  Simple but effective.  After coloring I cut the scene out with a Stitched Rectangle die.  I used the 5th from the largest for the scene and the 2nd from the largest for the outside of the White layer. 

    Here's another set of cards.  I used Blending Brushes for most of the color – Balmy Blue & Sahara Sand. I did add a bit of Dark Calypso Coral to a few areas with a Blends marker.  

    In the Country both Save

    The greetings are from the Sending Support stamp set.  This set can be seen here and is also free with a $50 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February of 2023.  

    For the greeting die-cut I used a die from the Potted Succulents dies seen here.  I changed the size of this die by cutting it once and then again to make it shorter.  I get a lot more use of my dies this way!

    Which do you prefer?  Color or no color?

  • In the Country with the Spotlighting Technique & video; a great alternative to coloring

    On last week's FB Live I played with the In the Country stamp set seen here showing a variety of ways to color (or not) these scenic images. 

    Today I'm showing the cards featuring the 'Spotlighting' technique.  This is a great alternative to coloring the entire image.  

    In the Country spolighting Save

    I used the Fabulous Frames dies for the oval die-cut. See them here.  I also used the Sending Support stamp set seen here.  Both this and the In the Country stamp set are free with any $50 Stampin' Up! purchase through February.  

    I stamped the image first in Black ink and then die-cut the oval layers.  I used the Wink of Stella and Classic ink to color.  I love using Wink to color because the images end up sparkly.

    If you don't have a Wink of Stella yet; I highly recommend them.  They're a subtle way of adding shimmer or sparkle to your projects.  And as you can see, you can use it for coloring too! I show how in the video below. 

    Tip wink of stella coloring . Save

    Tip: when the fluid in the Wink of Stella runs out, add a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol inside the barrel.  You'll get quite a bit more use of it.

    All of the layers are adhered down but the colored oval and greeting; they're popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  

    I added a piece of Fancy Florals DSP to the card base.  I cut a piece at 4" X 5 1/4" and then cut it in half for two cards. Other measurements are shown below.

    I love the effect this Spotlighting technique gives.  It's fun and unique and saves time too!
