Artful Amaryllis

The Artful Amaryllis Bundle features the amaryllis flower. It is a beautiful flower that grows from a bulb and is easily grown inside. We usually see it around Christmas, but the flower symbolizes love. Therefore, it can be used to make Christmas, Valentine’s, Anniversary, or Birthday cards.

You can find some beautiful examples on page 48 of the September – December Mini Catalog. The example below uses Artful Amaryllis to make a beautiful birthday card. 

Artful Amaryllis Birthday

How It’s Made

The card base is Real Red cut at 5 ½” x 8 ½” and scored and folded at 4 ¼”.

Next, add a layer Old Olive cut to 5” x 3 ¾”.

Cut a Basic White layer 3 ½” x 4 ¾” and die cut with the Deckled Circle Dies. After die cutting the circle, emboss with the Forever Plaid embossing folder. Before attaching this piece to the card, put a 3 ¼” square behind the circle. This card uses a piece of DSP from the Season of Green & Gold DSP.

Next, stamp the amaryllis flower on Basic White using Tuxedo Memento Black ink. Use Real Red and Old Olive to stamp the “fill in” for the flowers and leaves. Die cut using the matching die from Artful Amaryllis. Attach with Dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment on Basic White using Real Red, die cut with the Deckled Rectangles. Cut a rectangle out of Old Olive to fit behind the sentiment and attach with Dimensionals.

Be sure to add this beautiful bundle to your next order and start creating.

Season of Chic

Season of Chic

If you’re looking for a stamp set with dies that’s good for every season, look no further than Season of Chic Stamp Set and Chic Dies. This combo has stamps and dies for Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.

Amazing Beyond Measure

My Team is called the Red White and Blue Stampers, and they are all Amazing Beyond Measure. I made these cards to send to them. On our bi-weekly Zoom, I demonstrated how to make the stamped leaf using our watercolor pencils and water painter. I also demonstrated some bow making tips, so this card was perfect to send to them, as it incorporated both!

Season of Chic

Season of Chic

With seven sentiments and images for four seasons, Season of Chic is a very versatile Stamp Set.

Chic Dies

This set has dies to cut out the stamped images from Season of Chic, but also dies to cut out details to layer on those images and other coordinating detailed dies.

How It’s Made

  1. Cut Cajun Craze cardstock to 5 ½ x 8 ½ and score at 4 ¼ on the long side.  Fold for card base.
  2. Cut a 4 ¼ x 5 ½ panel of Very Vanilla. Cut a piece of scrap paper to 4 ¼ x 5 ½.  Cut out the center of scrap paper using the fifth largest Deckled Rectangle Die. 
  3. Layer scrap paper (with deckled hole in center) over vanilla panel and secure together (I used a paper clip on the edge).  Holding the scrap paper securely, use Blending Brush and Crushed Curry Ink Pad to add color to vanilla panel through the scrap paper’s hole.  Remove scrap paper and discard or save for another project.  Stamp sentiment on Vanilla panel with Cajun Craze ink.
  4. Cut Very Vanilla panel (with blended center) with largest die from Deckled Rectangles Dies.  Attach to card base.
  5. Cut a detailed leaf from Cajun Craze cardstock scrap.  Attach to card with glue.
  6. Stamp leaf in Cajun Craze on Watercolor Paper.  Color center of leaf with Pumpkin Pie Watercolor Pencil and outer edges with Daffodil Delight Watercolor Pencil.  Use Water Painter to blend colors.  Cut with coordinating die and attach to card with Dimensionals.
  7. Add a small linen thread bow to leaf with mini glue dot.  Color three small rhinestones with Dark Pumpkin Pie Blend and adhere to card.

    Soft Seedlings Swap

    Have you ever participated in a card swap? They can be a lot of fun. Last weekend, I met up with some of my stamping friends in Arizona and we exchanged cards.

    Card Swap

    Normally, when you participate in a Card Swap, you will make several of the same card. For example, in this swap, there were 27 participants. Everyone made 28 cards (an extra for the display board), and we exchanged them one-for-one. So, I came home with 27 different cards! It’s a great way to get new ideas and samples of products you may not own.

    Soft Seedlings Swap Card

    I made 28 of these cards for the swap I participated in. My friend LaAnna came over to help me put these together. She’s always there when I need her, and I appreciate her!

    Soft Seedlings

    This stamp set was one of the first to catch my eye in the 2022 July-December Mini Catalog. I love the maple leaf and the fun little seedlings. We always called these “whirlybirds” when I was growing up. I also love the pretty font for the greetings.

    This is a stand-alone stamp set…. no punches or dies, just beautiful images.
