I’m covering Cute and Classy Easter Cards today!

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, VIDEO by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I’m sharing two quick & easy Easter Cards; a Cute and a Classy!! You can enjoy watching the replay of last nights Facebook LIVE and then I’ll share the cards close-up and personal!! lol

I started with the Quick & Cute Easter Card and the Enjoy the Adventure Memories and More card kit and envelopes and paired it up with the Rain or Shine Specialty Designer paper.

I did tuck a small Stampin’ Dimensional under my bunnies foot so he is popped up pretty good. There is a lot of texture and dimension on this card, even though it is a simple layout.

I forgot to mention in the video that the Rain or Shine is a “Specialty” paper, and it’s easy to see the embossed areas of my bunny. This paper is so cute and can be used for so much more than a “rainy” card … Easter!! Who knew!

If you would like to see more card samples from the Enjoy the Adventure then just CLICK HERE

Now let’s move on to our Quick -n- Classy card!

You have simplicity of this design and a great paper saving tip by cutting out your butterfly from the gold foil piece underneath the designer paper. I used the “Easter Blessings” stamp from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set … you can always use what you have in your stash!!

Another simple layout but with so much beautiful dimension and a bit of added texture from embossing our greeting in gold.

So glad you decided to stop on by today and take a look … hey, invite your friends to check out my blog as well. Love to share my creations and inspire as many as I can.

Have a great day ~

Sneak Peek: Celebrating You Card

Posted in Birthday, HANDMADE CARDS by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

I’m excited to share a Sneak Peek with my Celebrating You Card today. It’s a fun combination of what’s in our Annual Catalog with some of our beautiful NEW items in the Jan-April Mini Catalog.

If you joined me for my Facebook LIVE yesterday you would have gotten a good look up close to some of these ….

I couldn’t wait to get my hands on the beautiful “Fancy Flora” 6 x 6 Designer Paper (160413) it’s so pretty and I love the painted look of it. I paired this pattern with Starry Sky even though the coordinating colors are Night of Navy and Orchid Oasis … I thought it made a bolder statement, and with the varying shades of blue I though it matched well.

Now, let’s talk about that butterfly – I chose one from the Brilliant Wings dies and had to try the NEW Fine Shimmer paper (160428). I misquoted you the colors last night, they are actually Soft Succulent, Fresh Freesia, and Gold … that makes much more sense!! AND it coordinates with the Fancy Flora designer paper I used (it’s even on the same page in the Mini Catalog).

I’m hoping those butterflies don’t fly away when the Annual Catalog retires in April … if you don’t have them already, you will want them in your dies collection.

I had to get a close up to show you the FINE glimmer on this paper… it really is stunning. My lighting does it no justice (I see an investment in some new lighting equipment needed – lol). You will also see the Adhesive Backed Milky Dots … I love those colors!!

I used the greeting from our Celebrating You stamp set and punched it with the Double Oval Punch. You could also stamp directly onto the paper but I didn’t want to loose that greeting because your eye is drawn right to the butterfly.

I hope you enjoyed this quick sneak peek and if you’d like to see the REPLAY of last nights “Walk Through” you can head over to my Facebook page or I’ll have it posted tomorrow on YouTube.

Thank you for stopping by. Have a great day ~

Throwback Thursday: Daisy Garden in Gold

Posted in HANDMADE CARDS, Techniques by

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I have a card from the Daisy Garden stamp set, and it’s stunning in gold! I embossed the Daisy Garden in Gold on Very Vanilla cardstock. Let me just say, sometimes simplicity can be stunning …

I matted the embossed image with the Gold Foil paper (4″ x 5-1/5″) which really highlights the gold daisies. This front is attached to the Very Vanilla Base (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″). Heat embossing is the technique that attracted me into stamping!

The greeting comes from the upcoming “Celebrating You” stamp set … it will be available January 4th in the Mini Catalog, as will the beautiful Brushed Brass Butterflies! I die cut the greeting with the Tasteful Labels dies …

I added a strip of the beautiful Gold Shimmer Ribbon that can be found in the current Mini that expires on January 3rd. So today … you got to see something new, with something in our annual catalog. I like utilizing my stamps and accessories from both catalogs.

Thank you for joining me today. Enjoy your day ~
