Greatest Journey & Faux Layers

Posted on April 25, 2023 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s card uses a fun and simple technique to create a wonderful look of multiple layers that create a scene using the Greatest Journey Dies (160593).

I’ve used simple masking, ink and my Blending Brushes for a backdrop for this card that I plan on using for a graduation card. I think the sentiment is perfect for that!

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

Best Witches & More

Posted on September 12, 2022 by Stamp with Jini

With the days shortening and the leaves beginning to turn Halloween isn’t far behind. So today I thought I would share some cute cards with you for the upcoming holiday. Did you know that Halloween is one of the biggest chocolate holidays of the year? Yep, and my hubby knows it since he was always checking those treats before our children could eat them to make sure they were safe. lol

This first card uses the fun Best Witches stamp set (159860).

Done in bold colors this card is sure to make someone smile. And this next card uses a fun technique with our Parakeet Party In Color Designer Series Paper (159253) called the Twisted Ribbon technique.

The Bewitching Bundle (159857) has a fun little Witch Hat Builder Punch (159856) that is part of it. I don’t know about you but when I see this punch I think of the Sorting Hat. Is it just me or have I watched Harry Potter too much?

Which either set you like, you’ll enjoy treating others with fun little projects this Halloween.

Welcoming Woods

Posted on August 18, 2021 by Stamp with Jini

This time of year the outdoors are calling and hiking, camping and spending the day in our North Georgia Mountains becomes extremely popular as the highways heading north are filled with campers, leaf watchers, and those seeking the peace and quiet of a day with nature. The Welcoming Woods stamp set (156550) evokes those kinds of images in my mind and since this set has all occasions sentients and year round options I think you’ll find this set a great one to team up with sets you might already have.

Check out this first card for fall and it’s striking colors.

A Blending Brush (153611) or Sponge Daubers (133773) were used to add color to this lovely image. A easy technique that packs a wallop! And this next card uses the set as a back drop for the Nature’s Beauty (150528) wildlife.

Embossed in White Embossing Powder (155554) it uses the snowflake pattern from the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718) to set the winter scene.

Today’s stamp set Approaching Perfection is another of our Sale-a-bration offerings that you can earn for FREE when placing a minimum order of $50. This set is filled with fun sentiments and simple images great for birthdays.

Want to see some fun cards using this set? Well you’re in luck I’ve got a great variety to share with you today. This first card in the bright cheerful colors of Bermuda Bay and Crushed Curry and it uses our Stampin’ Write Markers for a quick and easy way to add two colors to the candle image.

It’s a great card for all ages.

Here is another fun card using the same Stampin’ Write Marker technique, this time in Misty Moonlight and Just Jade. Check out the Champagne Rhinestones (151193) adding a bit of sparkle to the candles.

This next card teams up the bold patterns from the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 155223) to create this striking card.

And don’t forget our punches. Here the Balloon Bouquet Punch (140609) was used to punch some balloons from the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 155222).

The balloons are tied together with our Misty Moonlight Baker’s Twine from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack (153620) found in the Annual Catalog. I just LOVE how we can mix and match our products and they work together so well!
