You Are Amazing cards with Blending Brush ideas

February 15, 2021

Last week on my Tuesday Live I shared three cards featuring the You Are Amazing stamp set & the new blending brushes. I've always loved sponging and these new brushes are incredible! They are so popular they are currently on back-order; but you can still order them!

On this first card I used the Happy Dies to create a colorful title banner.

This was my favorite and also loved by many others too. I created a few 'star stencils' with the Stitched Stars dies and sponged in the windows.

I added a few Artistry Blooms sequins for extra bling.

And on this card I sponged on the True Love polka dot paper. It was Black & White but is now two-toned!

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.

Save

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:

I hope you'll try this easy but unique card layout!

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.

Save

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.
