Falling for Leaves Thank You Card Tutorial

Posted on by

It’s Monday and I’ve got a week filled with tutorials for you! Today’s card is a Thank You card that I make to send out to those of you who place an order – and today’s card is the one I designed for November’s orders using a  technique with our Embossing Paste.

I just fell in love with the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper when I saw it so I thought I’d use the beautiful Merry Merlot Glimmer Paper for this month’s project. I teamed it up with some of our Shimmer Paste and our brick mask.

But since I wanted to add a bit more color I tinted the Shimmer Paste Crumb Cake. Check out this quick Video Tutorial showing you just how simple that is to do! And that means we have unlimited colors to choose from. Who doesn’t like that?

#imbringingbirthdaysback with the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set

Posted on by

Today’s card is the one I designed for my November Birthday cards that I’ll be sending out today. This birthday card uses a fun technique that is one of my favorites to create fall colored leaves. It is called the Baby Wipe Technique.

This card layout is also one of my favorites since it is clean and simple but still packs a wow. And with the Baby Wipe Technique everyone will wonder how you created leaves with fall color too.

I’ve whipped up a quick tutorial so you can recreate the Baby Wipe Technique for your projects!

Country Road & More

Posted on by

I’m feeling a little bit country today and this set has a wonderful nostalgic feel to it for me and I almost missed it in the Annual Catalog. I’m a country girl at heart and grew up among the dairy farms of Wisconsin so these images remind me of my childhood and the country side dotted by red barns.

Today’s cards are done in our neutrals and make great masculine cards. This firsts card is done with Crumb Cake and Basic Black – a monochromatic card that is striking.

And this second card uses our new colors, Gray Granite and Merry Merlot along with the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper –

a bit of Silver Embossing and Silver Mini Sequins add a bit more texture to the card. Can you see the plants stamped in the background of the wheel and weather vain? It just adds a hint of interest and texture.

And how about this card done with the Artisan Texture, Enjoy Life and Stitched All Around stamp sets.

I love the way the Linen Thread is applied to the card strip – an easy technique, but it adds a lot of interest.

So, have a favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which one you like and why?

Supplies: 

Stamp Set: Country Road (147466/147469), Artisan Textures (146570/141781), Enjoy Life (148190),  and Stitched All Around (146629/146632)

Paper: Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (144177)

More Rooted in Nature

Posted on by

Rooted in Nature is just a wonderful set to work with since it contains images that can be used year round and of course it’s perfect for fall too! Today’s cards all use this set, but have very different looks which is why I love this suite of products so much.

Check out this first card that uses our Copper Foil Paper to create a beautiful foil accent to the embossed leaves.

I love the fact that this Bundle not only uses Framelits, but also our new Embossing Dies that allow you to add texture too.

This next card uses the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper as it’s back drop for the tree ring.

And how about this one that uses Mint Macaron, Tranquil Tide and Blackberry Bliss to highlight the sentiment  from the set. A simple design but quite lovely.

And while this next card teams up the images with out Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (144177) it’s a great combination too.

This Blackberry Bliss and Crumb Cake color combo is striking.  And if you don’t already have some, you’re going to love the Nature’s Twine (146342) since it gives you 4 wonderful colors to choose from for your projects.

And finally this Monochromatic  card done in Lovely Lipstick – these type of cards are a great way for stampers to start building their supplies since you only have to have one color, but they are quite striking.

Have a favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which design you like?

Supplies:

 Stamp Set: Rooted in Nature (*146479/146482)

Paper: Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper (146338)
