Posted on by

Today’s card uses the same Designer Series Paper that I shared with you in yesterday’s tutorial, the Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 163469). This pack of paper with it’s bright colors is perfect for big blocks of color like this card uses. I’ve also used the Soft Shimmer Paper Combo Pack (retiring 161750). After all who doesn’t like a bit of shimmer and shine that this paper and the Adhesive Backed Shinny Sequins (Online Exclusive 133782) give this card.

So without further ado here is the video tutorial for you along with my PDF that you can print and has all the information to create this card.

Thank You Artistically Inked Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Today’s card is bright and cheerful and it’s a great one for beginner stampers since the Artistically Inked stamp set (Retiring 154542) is a two step stamp set that has wiggle room when lining up the images since it is designed not to match up perfectly.

This stamp set has some great sentiments too for your basic card giving needs and it’s on our Last Chance List so it’s only available while supplies last.

I’ve love the colors I used for this card and the way it turned out.

I’ve whipped up a quick video tutorial for you along with a PDF that includes measurements, supply list and more!

Loads of Fun Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Today’s card uses one of my favorite sets, as it holds a special meaning for myself and my son.

When my son Johnathan was a toddler he was fascinated by all the heavy equipment that we would pass by as we went places, so I learned all the names and the differences as he grew up. Let me tell you it wasn’t easy keeping up with him as he knew them all. LOL.

So today I’m going to share another card with you that I created using this Construction Zone stamp set (161582) and our Regals Collection Designer Series Paper (retiring 161642).

I’ve shared several tutorials over the months with you since I really enjoy this little set. I really hate to see it retire as it is always harder to find masculine sets for out little builders.

Here is a quick video tutorial for you

along with my PDF that includes a complete supply list and measurements so you can create this card too!

CLEARANCE RACK REFRESH IS LIVE!

Sea Turtle Card Tutorial

Posted on by

It’s another full week of video tutorials! And since spring is in the air and that means spring break for many of us and warmer weather, which of course makes me think of the pool or ocean time I hope to get. On one of our last family vacation we continued to hunt for sea turtles that were suppose to dot the beach. Turtles of all kinds have been a favorite of mine since I had that small palm tree in my pets plastic dish. Remember those? Or am I dating myself? Any how when I saw the Sea Turtle stamp set it made me think of those trips looking for sea turtles and the excitement of when we found them.

So today I’m going to share a card using the Sea Turtles stamp set (160500) with you and another sketch. This sketch happens to be a favorite of mine that I’ve used over and over again. Not only do I have a sketch to share with you but I also have a video and PDF tutorial for you too. So why not take a look?

Cute, right?

Today’s sketch is #8 of my sketches and if you’d like to make one too you so you have this handy tool to design with you can check out the PDF below.

Inked & Tiled Monochromatic One Sheet Wonder Cards

Posted on by

Today I’m going to share with you how to make 3 cards from one sheet of 6×6 Designer Series Paper – Or a what’s called a One Sheet Wonder. I love these kinds of projects that make cards so easy and monochromatic cards are great for building your stamping collection.

This is also a great way to make multiple cards quickly using the Designer Series Paper you love – and since they all coordinate it’s a great gift for someone too! Simply place them in a fun box or wrap them up in a bit of ribbon. Voila!

The Inked Botanicals Suite Collection (retiring 161172) is retiring soon so whether you get the stamps, paper, or the entire suite you’ll want to be sure to get these products before they are gone!

These cards are made with my One Sheet Wonder Template #3. Here is a quick video tutorial on how to cut the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper (161157) for the cards to get you started.

And of course, videos for each card with a PDF so you can make them too –

Latte Love Card Tutorial

Posted on by

A good morning always starts with a cup of coffee and so when I saw the Latte Love Suite (Online Exclusive 163466) I knew it was one that I would enjoy creating with.

The Suite is filled with wonderful coffee feeling colors and images. And the fun set of dies not only cut out stamped images but also images from the A Little Latte Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 163453). And of course don’t forget if something in the suite is on backorder and it isn’t available right now, you can still get the other items and get the 10% discount on the Bundle.

Today’s card uses the same Sketch that I shared with you yesterday for the Cutest Cow Tutorial

and while it uses the same Sketch you can see just how different it looks.

This card uses the lovely A Little Latte Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 163453) and pulls out the Calypso Coral and Lost Lagoon from the patterns. A change up in the Circle Punches adds another layer of color that highlights the sentiment.

Want to see how I created this card? I’ve got a video and PDF for you today.

Cutest Cow Card Tutorial PDF

My card today also uses a sketch. You might be wondering what a sketch is. If you haven’t seen sketches yet, they are a basic design or layout for a card and you’ll be seeing some in our NEW 2024 Annual Catalog on page 22 and throughout the catalog.

Today’s sketch is a quick and easy one that uses punches, but the basic layout is versatile enough that you could swap out the punch for a die, etc – the options are endless with sketches. The sketch is simply to inspire you!

I’ve been sharing these with my Team and thought you’d enjoy them too so I’ll be sharing my sketches with you periodically and will include a PDF with the measurements so that you can create your own sketch to use as a tool. This PDF will allow you to create the sketch, full size, using card stock as a reference tool. You can put in in a “recipe” box or punch a hole in the corner and put them on a ring so you can flip through them. Or if you prefer print the PDF for a note book. The choice is yours! So why not try my sketch out today?
