Amazing WOW projects with Hey Chuck; Part 2

August 4, 2023

Each month one of my Flowerbug's Team is featured as an Artist of the Month. For July Annette chose the adorable Hey Chuck bundle seen here. I know you'll be amazed at her fabulous projects I'll be sharing.

First up today is a stunning framed sampler.

Just look at her incredible scenes! I think the bit of blue behind each image sets them off incredibly.

Sampler details:

She used Azure Afternoon ink and blending brushes to add a bit of blue behind her die-cut rooster scenes.
The designer paper behind it all is the Masterfully Made designer series paper seen here.
She colored the images with Blends markers and popped them up on the squares.
Her 4 white squares measure 2 5/8", colored squares are 2 3/4" and the black are 2 7/8" squares
The black frame is 9" in size; the glass opening is 7 1/2"

Here's the Hey Chuck bundle she used. The dies are back now and available!

Look at this hilarious rooster! And the perfect greeting for him…..

She used the Dots & Spots die for her background and that strip of the Masterfully Made DSP is a perfect addition to this card and her color choices. The white on white theme makes the image pop!

The dimension she achieved by popping up the rooster and the greeting with Dimensionals makes such a difference to this card.

Details:

Dots & Spots white layers are 5" X 3 3/4", Pumpkin Pie layer is 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
Stitched circle is from the Stylish Shapes dies
DSP strip is 4" X 1"

Next is a fun fold card featuring the Glorious Gingham designer paper.

She got the idea from Karen Titus. The DSP is 6" square and you score and cut it to fold in on itself. Here's what it looks like when it's closed up:

I'll be sharing how to make one of these cards very soon!

Look at this incredible Lazy Days card swap!

May 23, 2023

I was blown away by the card swap Paula made for our Flowerbug's Team swap in May. Check it out…..

Save
See what I mean? The scene she created is so real & life-like! This card features the new Lazy Days bundle seen here. And she used many of the stamps & dies in the bundle. I counted them – 9 stamps or dies!

Here's a photo of the bundle she used: Lazy Days seen here.

I think her soft colors set the tone for a real porch scene. That rug, lattice, fence and sponged sun – well just everything works! I'm so very proud of her talent. AMAZING!

Her background is white but she lightly blended blue ink for the sky and likely crumb cake for the porch.

Save

What do you think? I think it's incredible well done.

New Inked & Tiled in a Book Binding Easel fun fold card; video tutorial & measurements too!

May 22, 2023
I'm just a little bit in love with this special fun fold layout! I've made three versions of it this month….

Save

I featured two new colors in our Stampin' Up! catalog – Boho Blue & Pebbled Path with returning Misty Moonlight & White.

I hope you watch the video here or below to see how to make this neat card. It's so much easier than it looks!

I knew this stamp set would be fun to play with. The greetings are wonderful and of course the botanical images are beautiful!

Save

Details:
- I stamped the large leaf repeatedly onto the Boho Blue layers using Versamark ink. I let it dry and then textured it with the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder. I love this new folder!!
- How did I get the two-tone colors on my flowers? I used both an ink pad and markers. I inked the flowers first in Boho Blue. Then I colored the stems using a Pebbled Path Stampin' Write marker. Huff and stamp! Why huff? Huffing with your moist breath re-moistens the ink on your stamp. This can be especially helpful with solid type stamps.
- After stamping I used the same Pebbled Path marker to add more detail to the base of each flower.
- For an easel card you need something to hold it open. I stamped the flower in the set onto a piece of Boho Blue and punched it out with the Petal Park Builder punch. I curled and distressed the petals and added it with a few Mini Dimensionals.
The card does lay flat for mailing.

Save

I added a looped piece of the 2023-25 In Color Jute trim under my punched Oval greeting. I did sponge a bit of Boho Blue on the edges first.

In the video I share two other beautiful cards made with the Inked & Tiled stamp set. I made two of them for swaps on the Stampin' Up! incentive trip I'm on right now! A Norwegian cruise!
