Whale Done ClassLast Day to Hold your Spot

More Tasteful Touches

Today I’m sharing some more cards using the Tasteful Touches stamp set, but this time it is all about layering. The set has some wonderful images that are perfect for building interest and texture.

Check out these two cards that use the Bundle. This first one is one in Crumb Cake, Magenta Madness and Bushing Bride.

And do you see a peek of our new Just Jade peaking out from the bottom of the sentiment that has been paired with our lovely Very Vanilla Scalloped Lace Trim (149593) for a more feminine look?

This next card is done in shades of greens and yellows – can you name them?

If you guessed Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue, Mango Melody, and our new In Color Bumblebee you guessed correctly. And the fun little bow is the Baker’s Twine from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack (153620). If you love Baker’s Twine you’ll want to check out this new option.

While they use the same stamps and dies they are done in different colors for a totally different look. Which color scheme is your favorite? Why not leave me a comment and let me know?

Tasteful Touches

640
.

Simple and striking cards this first card uses our Cinnamon Cider and team it up with the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper pattern that has a plaster feel with or at least that is what it looks like to me.

While using the same 2 images this next card done in classic Black and White has a more elegant feel to it.

Don’t you love how just a change in color gives you a totally different vibe? This set not only has some great image and sentiments it has a coordinating set of Label Dies which makes it a fantastic value. You’ll be seeing this labels on all kinds of projects for sure since they can be used not only with this set but those sentiments that you already use.

I’m making this quick this morning as we are enjoying an impromptu visit my husband’s niece. In addition my son has plans for me today too, the sun is out and it’s a beautiful day so he has a DIY project planned.

A Good Man

It’s another day of masculine cards. So why not check out these cards made with A Good Man stamp set (149270). The set is perfect for fathers with it’s imagery and wonderful sentiments.

This first card is done using our beautiful pallet of new 2020-2022 In Colors. Don’t you love the fact we have 4 new In Color options that we can add to our Stampin’ Blends collection? I know I do, coloring with Blends is sooooo easy!

And this next card uses classic Navy and Crumb Cake along with a bit of Denim Ribbon (149590) for a bit of texture.

Team it up with our Waterfront stamp set (146386) for a lovely beach feel.

Itty Bitty Greetings for Father’s Day

Do you love a stamp set that gives you all kinds of options – It’s why I love the 3 different Itty Bitty sets that we have. They give you lots of options and take you through the year!

As an added bonus a lot of these sentiments fit in our Classic Label Punch (141491) which makes it a great set for those who might be newer to stamping or worry about stamping the sentiment straight. You can’t go wrong with stamping and then punching it out!

Check out this lovely card made using the Rooted in Nature stamp set (148217) and a quick and easy Stampin’ Write Marker Technique called thumping.

Hows it done? The stamp was colored first with the Soft Suede Stampin’ Write Marker on the trunk and then with the Old Olive Stampin’ Write Marker for the canopy. After that the Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker was thumped or bounced randomly around the canopy to add the second color. When you have all the coloring done you breath on it to re-moisten the ink and then stamp as desired. So easy, but a really cool look, don’t you think?

Our Stampin’ Write Markers come in all 4 Color Collections and can be purchased separately or in a marvelous case option with all 40 Colors from our 4 Color Families. So you can get them all or build your collection over time, the choice is yours!

I really like the stamp set Rooted in Nature for masculine cards so here are a couple more cards using the set.

And if you love dies, there is a coordinating set called Nature’s Roots (151786) that you can get too. This next card teams up the set with our very popular In Good Taste Designer Series Paper (152494) that is filled with wood images and the Just Jade 2020-2022 In Color.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Rooted in Nature (148217) and Itty Bitty Greetings (151331)

Inks: Soft Sea Foam Classic Ink (147102/147166), Regals Stampin’ Write Markers (147155) and Neutral Stampin’ Write Markers (147158)

Paper: Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper (152492), Soft Sea Foam (146988), Garden Green (102584), and Whisper White Card stock (100730)

Accessories: Classic Label Punch (141491), Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon (144213) and Stampin’ Sponges (141337)

Geared Up Garage

It the week before Father’s Day so I thought it would be a great time to share some wonderful sets that include Father’s Day sentiments. Today’s set is the Geared Up Garage stamp set (148590). It’s perfect for our guys who love those classic cars. And it is a perfect choice for my guy since he’s a classic card enthusiast. We spent a lot of time those first years going to car shows and swap meets. (I’ll share a photo with you later in the post of Larry’s baby with you.)

This first card combines the beautiful World of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper (152491)

I love the way that the Brass Foil (153057) has been used for the gears and pulls out the foiling in the Designer Series Paper too. The combination of Bermuda Bay and Basic Black is quite striking in person.

And this next card uses the color theme from my husbands car in addition to some simple stamping which makes it a great choice if you are just building your stamping collection. Classic – the Basic Black, Smoky Slate and Real Red makes an impact.

The Geared Up Garage stamp set also has coordinating Garage Gears Dies (151812) which make it a favorite!

On a personal note, here is the photo I told you I’d share. Back when we were first married my husband was working on his 1957 Chevy that he got when he was in the Army. He hauled it all the way from California back to Georgia. Here is a snap shot of it.

He had just completed restoring it before we got married, so we recreated my parents wedding photo from 1958 with it. We’ve been married 33 years now, but it seems just like yesterday at times. I’m wearing my mother’s dress, with a corset and big wooden hoop under it. That was an experience!

Tasteful Touches Card Tutorial

Today’s card is made with our In Good Taste Suite of products – as soon as I saw this suite I knew it would be one I’d reach for again and again. Not only does the stamp set have some great sentiments in a lovely font, it also has some wonderful collage type stamps which I’m always looking for to build layers of texture and interest on a card.

And the Dies! What can I say…. I love basic shapes that I can use with multiple stamp sets and this set is fantastic with their stitched edges and embossed details.

Today’s card is quick and easy since it uses the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper as a back drop. I love paper like this that has texture and versatility making it great for masculine cards too.

I’m thinking the Bumblebee and wood give this card a rather country feel to it. What do you think? Gingham always reminds me of my childhood summers, so I’m excited to have a couple of gingham options in this catalog.

Here is a quick video for you along with a PDF that includes a supply list and measurements too.

Good Morning Magnolia

Dignity and Nobility…. Did you know that is the meaning of the Magnolia? Here in the south the white magnolias are commonly seen in bridal bouquets because the flowers are thought to reflect and emphasize the bride’s purity and nobility. With June just a few days away it got me thinking about weddings and magnolias, so today I thought I’d share a few cards with you using the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (149298) and it’s coordinating set of dies, Magnolia Memories (149578).

This first card uses our So Saffron (149557), Shaded Spruce (147938) and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends (147273) to color the bloom. I love the way our Blends give us bold color and they are so easy to work with since they come in a light and dark version.

You can see all our Stampin’ Blends HERE. (Remember our Stampin’ Blends are going to be in the 2020 Annual Catalog, just the option of purchasing them separately is going away. So if a single blend is sold out right now, you’ll be able to get the color again on June 3rd in a combo pack) .

And this next card uses our Old Olive, Petal Pink, Crumb Cake and Mango Melody. Don’t you love the way color changes the feel of a project!

And finally this bold card that highlights the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper (Retiring 152455). It uses one of the sentiments and the Nested Label Dies along with some simple stamping.

While this pattern is from the pack that is sold out it is available in the bulk pack option. It also has the same patterns just fewer patterns. You’ll get 4 of the wonderful patterns found in the original package tho, so you won’t be disappointed. It’s a great deal at just $17 for 20 sheets!

The Good Morning Magnolia Bundle (Retiring 151087) is on our Last Chance list and only available until supplies last or June 2nd which ever comes first. So why not save 10% on this bundle? There are lots of options left for this Suite of products that you’ll want to check out if you would like to create projects like these too. Click HERE to see them.
