Amazing WOW projects with Hey Chuck; Part 2

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"

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

Save

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!

• Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements

  August 16, 2022

  ---

  Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.  

  Save

  I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips.  I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS. 

  I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.   

  I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card.  See the Rings of Love DSP here.

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
  • White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
  • Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
  • Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”

• Perched in a Tree Explosion card with video tutorial!

  August 15, 2022

  ---

  I can't stop using the Aspen dies!  I absolutely love this tree die-cut!  

  Did you know these dies are free during August with our Sale-a-Bration promotion?  Any $100 Stampin' Up! order and they're yours free! 

  Save

  I created this card on last week's FB Live video.  You can watch it here.  

  For the card front, I simply added a layer of the Rings of Love DSP behind it for a soft background.  You can keep it this simple or create your own background!  

  However I made the inside of the card extra special with an Explosion fold. These look so difficult to do but honestly they're not!  Please watch the video; afterwards you'll want to make one!

  Save

  The left card has the Rings of Love DSP and the card on the right features the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  For greetings I used the Soft Seedlings & Perched in a Tree stamp sets.  

  Save

  I also shared an easy ribbon trick in the video; if you have trouble with bows I hope you watch.  

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • DSP – 3 7/8” X 5 1/8”, inside is 8” square
  • Greeting strip 1” X 4”
  • White 4” X 5 ¼” & inside is 3 ½” square
