Calming Camellia is a Beaut!

-

 My Facebook Live tonight featured the beautiful Calming Camellia set, which is a Host set from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. It's truly lovely, very easy to work with, and has several great sentiments.


Measurements
  • Basic Black card base (8-1/2" x 5-1/2", folded in half at 4-1/4")
  • Petal Pink layer (4" x 5-1/4"_
  • Basic White layers (4-1/4" x 5-1/2", 4" x 5-1/4")
  • 1/8" Petal Pink cotton ribbon (about 18")
Directions
  1. Stamp the large floral image in the center of the larger Basic White layer using Memento Tuxedo  Black ink. Let set for a moment.
  2. Color in the stem, leaves and portions of the flower petals using Stampin' Blends. I also added a light wash of color to the splotchy background using a Soft Sea Foam Blend.
  3. Die cut the stamped layer using the largest rectangle from the Scalloped Contours dies.
  4. Thread the ribbon through a hold on each side and tie a bow in the front. Trim ends.
  5. Mount this layer onto the Petal Pink layer, then onto the Basic Black card.
  6. On the smaller Basic White layer, stamp the large floral image in Petal Pink, then a sentiment of choice on top of that using the Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Adhere this layer to the inside of the card.
  7. Stamp the image on the envelope in Petal Pink
Here's the video of my Friday Night Live:

It's Always Beach Time!

Image
 It was rainy and cool all day today, but that's not going to dampen my beach vibes! I was inspired by a card done by a German demonstrator named Antje to create this sweet little card featuring the On the Horizon bundle from the Jan-June mini catalog. This bundle will be retiring at the end of June, but since I live in a beach community, I can't see it retiring from my collection any time soon. Measurements (complete supply list at the bottom of this post) Thick Basic White card base (5-1/2" 8-1/2", scored in half at 4-1/") Basic White scrap Old Olive scrap Chipboard or cardstock for template (4-1/2" x 5-1/2") Directions Cut a circle out of the template material where you want the circle to be on your finished project (centered horizontally but more toward the top than bottom). Place the template over the front of the card. Using Crumb Cake ink pad and a blending brush, apply ink to the lower third of the circle window. Using Balmy Blue ink pad and a b...

 It's apple season in Maine. I have to be honest, I don't pick a lot of apples. Or drink a lot of apple cider. But I do love apple cider doughnuts, so that counts, right? Tonight, I featured the More than Autumn bundle, which was also featured in my Sept. 24th Tune in Tuesday class. I love this bundle and think you will also! Measurements Crumb Cake card base (5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored and folded in half at 4-1/4") Splendid Autumn DSP (medium green background and deep red background, each 3" x 4-1/2", plus a scrap of the deep red background) Basic White cardstock (5/8" x 3", scraps) Directions Adhere green background layer to card base on an angle, then add the red background layer on top, at a different angle.  Die cut circle from Basic White cardstock. Color the cup with Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends. Stamp cup on the circle using Early Espresso ink. Stamp cup again on the scrap of deep red background paper. Fussy cut the cup sleeve. Adhere t...

 It's still summery here in southern Maine, but the nights are getting cooler and it won't be long before the leaves begin changing. Until then, I have a card for you made with the Changing Leaves bundle, an Online Exclusive from Stampin' Up! It's currently on backorder, but should be in the week of September 9th. And in case you missed my Tune in Tuesday class a few days ago, I've linked to it after the link to the replay of my Friday Night Live where I created this card. Measurements Crumb Cake card base (4-1/4" x 11", scored and folded in half at 5-1/2") Basic White cardstock (4" x 5-1/4", various sizes of scraps for leaves and sentiment) Country Woods DSP (2-3/4" x 4") Linen Thread (four 6" lengths) Directions Adhere DSP layer to Basic White layer. Lay the four lengths of Linen Thread next to each other to cover the area where the DSP meets the Basic White in the middle of the card. Adhere on back side with tape or desired...
