Christmas is coming! Create a beautiful Christmas floral spray on paper.

-

 This card is sooooo me. I love white on white. And I love vibrant colors on white. And the Christmas Banners bundle makes it so easy to build a beautiful floral spray to go under a banner greeting.



Cardstock Measurements
  • Thick Basic White (5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored and folded in half at 4-1/4")
  • Basic White layer (4" x 5-1/4")
  • Basic White scrap (at least 1-1/2" x 5")

Directions
  1. Take the banner die and lay it where you want to banner to go on your card. Lightly trace the inside of the banner die with a pencil. This will give you a guideline where to anchor your images.
  2. Beginning with the largest greenery, stamp it 4-5 times around your banner markers using Garden Green ink. Vary the angles somewhat, but try to keep the design balanced.
  3. Take the next largest leafy image and stamp it 4-5 times using Old Olive ink.
  4. Stamp the 4-5 fir sprigs using Garden Green ink.
  5. Stamp the stem for the berries 4-5 times using Soft Suede ink.
  6. Stamp the berries (lined up with the stems) using Real Red ink.
  7. Fill in any bare spots using the holly leaf and Soft Sea Foam (or Pear Pizzazz) ink.
  8. To create an embossed banner, ink up the banner image in Versamark, then Garden Green ink and stamp onto the Basic White scrap. Working quickly, repeat this process with "Merry" and "Christmas", then pour clear embossing powder over the banner. Shake off excess powder then heat emboss.
  9. Die cut the banner using the coordinating die. Attach to card using dimensionals.
  10. Add Basic Rhinestones to card front.
  11. Stamp inside and envelope to coordinate.

It's Always Beach Time!

 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...

Who Wants Some Apple Cider?

 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...

Changing Leaves...not quite yet!

Image
 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...
