Mixed Florals

Posted on by

Today’s card both use the Mixed Florals Bundle (Last Chance 164642) but have totally different feels to them.

The bundle is an image only bundle and the dies have additional shapes you can use on your project like this first card does.

It teams up both the image that has been colored using Stampin’ Blends with die cut pieces to add depth. Texture has been addition in the background. The sentiment that has been punched out using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch (162888) is from the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set (161899).

And this next card is a fun shape card using the Everyday Arches Dies (Online Exclusive 164629)

and opens from the side.

Since this was a image only set the sentiments from the Everyday Arches Dies (Online Exclusive 164623) are perfect for it! Don’t you think?

You can find these Online Exclusive in my Online Store, they aren’t in one of our catalogs so be sure to stop by and check them out.

Coneflower Celebration

Posted on by

Do you ever need a card for one of those special occasions you’ve might have missed? I know there are times I do, the week just gets away from me and I don’t get my card mailed out on time. So the Coneflower Celebrations Bundle (162251)

is a great choice to create with – and the fun set of coordinating dies have a special movement piece to them. Notice how the large image of the coneflower opens? Create a tag, note card, or an piece that opens on your project. Like I said fun.

Well today’s card uses the the sorry I missed your special day sentiment and highlights these beautiful flowers that have been done in Pretty Peacock and Lost Lagoon.

While the Textured Notes Dies (Online Exclusive 165555) have a lot of texture that have been used to cut out the sentiment more has been added to the background with the Dotted Circle 3d Embossing Folder (163789).

What do you think? I really like the color combination used for this card, it’s not one I would have thought of, but I love the shades of blue. How about you?

Tractor & Co

Posted on by

It’s that time of year that we start thinking about the holidays and here at my home that is surrounded by pastures, tractors are a daily sight.

So the Tractor & Co Stamp set (Online Exclusive 166113) was one that I looked at since I love the images and the ability to use it year with it’s two-step stamping options.

It also has a fun set of dies and comes in a money saving bundle making it a hit for sure.

So today’s card is one for the holidays – that tractor filled with holiday trees. Just one of the options you can choose from.

Cute, right?

Done in warm colors with a touch of glimmer this card is striking. The Mossy Meadow & Gold 1/4″ Ribbon (Online Exclusive 166158) adds a nice pop of color against the crumb Cake back drop. The Traditional Sparkling Sequins (165875) make adding a pop of shine so easy and add additional holiday shine!

Ink Swipe Technique Card Technique Tutorial

Posted on by

Do you enjoy learning new technique that you can use in your projects? I know I do and fall is a great time to dust them off and use them since they can create a wow factor to your projects. So today I’m sharing a Ink Swipe Technique that I recently shared with my Team, the Blue Mountain Stampers at our October Team Meeting.

This technique is quick and simple to do using some of your favorite colors for fall. And why not pull out that Very Vanilla card stock too? I love using this card stock during the holidays as it has a warmer less bright feel to it.

Want to see how I created this card? Check out my video tutorial and PDF.

Loveliest Tree Ink Swipe Technique Card & Technique Book Page PDF

More Amber Autumn

Posted on by

Today’s card shows off both sides of it’s Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper (165882) with a simple fold.

The images from the Amber Autumn Stamp Set (165883) have been colored using Stampin’ Blends for a bold look and instead of using the traditional Memento Tuxedo Black the image has been stamped in Early Espresso Classic Ink.

This Joy Fold Card has a bit of a twist. Instead of using the card stock as the left side of the card as is traditional it uses the layer of Designer Series Paper instead. Open the card and it shows off both lovely patterns.

Simply take your traditional card base and adhere the 6″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Designer Series Paper that has been scored at 4″ onto the card front. Then add your focal point panel (a piece of Old Olive card stock that measure 6 1/2″ x 3 1/2″; scored at 3 1/4″) to the card front as desired. Open the card base and you still have a large area for your message too. Cool right?

Did you know that you can use our Classic Inks when coloring with our Blends? Since they are water based you can use any of the Classic Pads to customize your look, why not give it a try for your next project?

If you enjoyed this little twist on the Joy Fold card why not try it for a card you’re making? I love swapping with my fellow demonstrators and learning new little things like this so I can share them with you!

Don’t forget to stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a fun tutorial with you that is perfect for fall!

Amber Autumn Fun Fold

Posted on by

Do you love the fall? The changing colors and cooling nights, along with taking the kids to pick out a pumpkin to carve and hay rides. I know we enjoyed those things when the kids were young. We specially loved to camp in the autumn and sit around the fire enjoying the fellowship of friends and family. So today’s card makes me think of those times and the fun we had together.

Today’s card is a simple fun fold created with just a few score lines that shows off the beautiful Autumn Toile Designer Series Paper (165882).

The card uses some of the Autumn Toile Suite (165904) products along with a one of our new punches, Sign Design Punch (Online Exclusive 166056) to create a space to show off this lovely sentiment. The small side panels that help it stand have been embossed for a bit of texture using our Fern 3D Embossing Folder (158804).

This fun fold is simple to create take a 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of card stock and score it at 2″, 3 1/8″, 5 3/8″, and 6 1/2″. Then decorate as desired. A signature panel can be added to the back in the 2 1/4″ section behind the focal point. Why not give it a try?

Fall is here and the leaves are turning quickly creating a wonderful pallet of colors on the trees here in North Georgia. How about in your area? But the cooler days and nights make me this fall so today’s card is celebrating this new season.

This card uses the fun Label Me Grateful Bundle (Online Exclusive 166112) which is filled with wonderful sentiment and coordinating images for this time of year.

And this card was inspired by the creation Stampin’ Up! shared with us. Don’t you love being able to CASE (copy and share everything)? And why not change it up a bit to suit you and make it yours like this card does?

This card uses not only the Label Me Grateful Bundle (Online Exclusive 166112), it also uses the wonderful Need for Tweed Designer Series Paper  (Online Exclusive 166144) a pack of paper that is filled with tons of texture making it perfect for this project.

More texture has been added with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder (164049) in the background and fun little embellishments that include Linen Thread (104199) and Pressed Flower Motifs (165215).

Wonder how the sentiment was created?

Yep, it’s that simple to create those wonderful sentiments for this project.

Spooky Halloween Treat Tent Tutorials

Posted on by

Wow, where has the week gone? It’s just flown by and I haven’t been able to share with you as I had planned. So today I’m going to share another of my Halloween goodies with you, this time a treat tent filled with M&Ms. After all everyone needs a little something, something right? And who doesn’t like chocolate? Got to tell you it was tough keeping the M&Ms away from my husband so I could add them to the treat bag, lol! I’m thinking this might just be his little treat.

Today’s treat uses the Spooky Sweet Suite (Online Exclusive 166205) of products and it’s filled with all kinds of fun things.

I’ve enjoyed creating a bunch of little treats that my family and friends will enjoy later this month and think you’ll enjoy the Suite too. The Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 166191) even has some fun die cut pieces you can use if you want a really quick no stamp project or simply coordinating images. Who doesn’t love that?

Check out my tutorial that I’ve created for you along with my PDF with complete supply list, measurements and more!
