Yesterday was my weekly Facebook Live where I shared 3 projects featuring the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June mini catalog. This cute stamp set is NOT coming back in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog. See it here.

I added all of the upcoming new In Colors to this card!

The clouds are heat embossed on the Balmy Blue CS using White embossing powder. The clouds are an outline stamp but I wanted to fill them in to look 'white'. So I used my Chalk Marker to color them in and love the effect! I am so sad to report that this neat Chalk Marker was on the retiring list and is already sold out. You could use White craft ink or White chalk pastels and color it in too.

The kite is stamped on White CS using Black Memento ink and colored in with the NEW In Color Blends markers. I fussy cut it and added to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I stamped the sun image on a scrap of Daffodil Delight CS using Daffodil Delight ink and fussy cut it. There is not a punch or dies to coordinate with this stamp set, but I didn't mind fussy cutting the kites or sun. Easy to do!

Life is Beautiful swap with Love of Leaves dies

August 11, 2020

Here's another card I made for an online card swap I joined in July. I have been having so much fun playing with my Life is Beautiful stamp set!

Save

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Pumpkin Pie; one of my favorite color combo's for Fall. I added some sponging and a pretty die-cut from the Ornate Frames die seen here. The Linen thread behind the greeting is simply a big bow.

This card is included in my August card kit to go. The kit includes the Life is Beautiful stamp set AND an 8 cards pre-cut kit. You have through August 20th to get this kit and the pdf tutorial is also included. It's just $28; a steal for a stamp set AND cards kit!   Read all about it here.

Did you notice the stitching on the bottom of this card? That's done with the Love of Leaves dies seen here:

2 Techniques with video; Starburst & Masking!

August 10, 2020
I made these technique cards on a Facebook Live in July and I know not everyone is on Facebook. So I'm posting it here for you too. I offer a FB Live every Tuesday at 11 am CT and one the 2nd & 4th Monday evenings at 7:30 pm CT all using current Stampin' Up! products. Join me here.

I had a request to teach the Starburst technique and came up with this easy version.

Save

I used the unique and colorful Artistry Blooms designer paper from the Annual Catalog along with the Tasteful Touches stamp set and Artistry Blooms adhesive backed sequins. The link to the videos is below but here are the basics:

Measurements:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- White CS 4" X 5 1/4"
- Artistry Blooms DSP – cut 5 strips measuring 1 1/2" X 5" and then cut these in half on the diagonal. Now mix and match them to the 4" X 5 1/4" piece leaving a tiny bit of space between them.
Save

I added greetings and die-cuts from the Tasteful Touches bundle seen here.

Here are the other cards I made using the masking technique and the Tasteful Touches stamp set.

Which do you prefer? Yellow or pink?

3 in 1 Triple Panel cards

August 7, 2020

I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below

The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here. The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare. Then afterwards you can share your cards too!

Save

I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it. I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here. You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.

I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle. That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set.

Measurements:

Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".

Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.

Cutting directions:

1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.

2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.

The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.

Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!

Save

On the cards above the colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Smoky Slate and the same Tasteful Touches bundle and leaf die from above.
