Adoring Hearts Book Fold

February 19, 2024

Although Valentine’s Day may be over, the Adoring Hearts stamp set can be used for so much more. Weddings and Anniversaries immediately come to mind, but I’m sure there are many other occasions to use this set.

Adoring Hearts Bundle

This bundle includes the stamp set, dies and hybrid embossing folder. The stamp set has hearts and roses and several sentiments in a beautiful font that looks handwritten.

The hybrid embossing folder includes both dies and embossing folder, so you can not only cut and emboss, but even do both at the same time!

Adoring Hearts Book Fold

For my card, I used the embossing folder ONLY to create the hearts in the background. I used one of the dies to cut the Highland Heather heart and another to cut the three tiny hearts for embellishment.

Bee Mine Center Easel Fold

January 17, 2024

After a four-month hiatus, I’m back to teaching classes. It was so good to have all my friends back in my studio. I didn’t realize how much I would miss these classes. At January’s class we made a sweet Bee Mine Center Easel Fold card.

Bee Mine Suite Collection

If you haven’t seen the Bee Mine Suite Collection, you can find it on page 9 of the new January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. This suite comes with an assortment of beautifully coordinated products to make creating cute projects quick and easy. These products are also available individually as well.

Bee Mine Center Easel Fold

This is such an easy but impressive card fold and we had a lot of fun with it. The center easel pops up making it a cute card to display.

And, of course it folds flat for mailing, although I’d place a piece of cardstock or thin bubble wrap over it to protect it from the machines at the post office.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this fun card. Stay tuned for more projects using the Bee Mine Suite Collection.

Fragrant Forest Upgrade

December 11, 2023

Last week, I posted a simple Christmas card using the Fragrant Forest Stamp. If you missed it, you can view it here. Today, we’ll be doing a Fragrant Forest Upgrade, using different colors on the same background stamp. Notice how the tree groupings are each a different color.

Here’s How

Mount your Fragrant Forest stamp on an F acrylic block. Turn the stamp upside down (rubber side up).

Ink the stamp using three colors of ink. The sample uses Pretty Peacock ink on the bottom row of trees, Old Olive on the middle row of trees and Lost Lagoon on the top row of trees. Apply the ink directly from the ink pad and go over it until you feel it has a good coating of ink.

TIP: If you find you have “over sprayed” the ink on the other tree areas, just wipe it off with a baby wipe.

Once you have the ink on the stamp, add your Basic White 5 ¼” x 4” panel to the stamp, carefully laying it down. Take a piece of scrap paper (I used grid paper) and lay it down and rub all over to get the ink on the paper. Gently lift your cardstock off the stamp. (tweezers work great!). Adhere this panel to the Pretty Peacock card base 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2.

Stamp the outline and the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink on the Basic White 2 ½” x 2 ½” piece. Punch out using the Handmade Tag Punch. Punch out a Pretty Peacock piece using the Decorative Circle Punch.

Adhere the sentiment to the Pretty Peacock punch out and then to the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
