Two more of my favorite kits. There are still Mystery Boxes left!

My mystery boxes are selling well; be sure to grab yours while there are some left. *see below

I wanted to share two more of my favorite kits from our Kit Collection seen here.

First is a thank you kit called ‘Thank You Kindly’. It’s an elegant set of cards that are both special & easy to make.

They’re mostly white with gold foil accents & that stunning black pre-printed greeting. This is a non-stamping kit. It’s currently in low inventory so it will likely sell out soon. It’s just $14 and can be seen here.

Next is the gorgeous Harvest Home Garland that can also be made into a wreath. It would be great for your Thanksgiving table or used as a wreath.

It took me about 1 1/2 hours to make mine. I even added some sponging/blending to the paper leaves (which wasn’t in the directions. It have everything you need except hot glue – recommended to attach the leaves to the rope. It’s so pretty and I love the non-traditional colors that still have an autumn look. See it in the store here.

• NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

  December 28, 2023

  ---

  I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them.

  It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th.  The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White. 

  There's a few special details I'd like to point out:

  1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
  2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. 
  3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here.  You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.

  Here's a close-up of this technique.

  I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

• Translucent Florals card made with colored vellum

  December 27, 2023

  ---

  I created this pretty card with the Translucent Florals bundle.  I used our vellum card stock and changed it from opaque to Fresh Freesia.

  It's really easy to do.  Here's how:

  1. I cut a good size piece of vellum from the main sheet and laid it onto my grid paper.
  2. Then I pressed my open ink pad onto the card stock until it was covered.
  3. To smooth the ink out use sponges or a blending brush. Let dry or heat set before die-cutting. 
  4. Die-cut the flowers, leaves and white centers

  Products & measurements:

  • Translucent Floral bundle
  • White card stock – card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score & fold at 4 1/4"
  • Painted Texture embossing folder – white is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  • Fresh Freesia card stock 3 7/8" X 4 7/8"
  • Granny Apple Green 4 1/4" X 1" strip 
  • Vellum card stock – a large piece colored with Fresh Freesia ink and a small piece with Granny Apple Green ink
  • Blending Brushes 

  Here's a photo of this pretty bundle. See it here.
