Get Our Celebration On

I have been working on some different cards made with the Beautiful Balloons bundle lately, trying out some different dies than I have used previously on cards. 

In the background I used a piece of Pool Party card stock that was die cut with the Radiating Stitches dies and then layered Gorgeous Grape and Basic White layers on top. The balloons were die cut and then stamped with Balmy Blue and Gorgeous Grape ink.

I added a few 2022-2024 In Color Pearls for accents.

Balmy Blue, Gorgeous Grape, Pool Party ink

Patterns and Balloons

When I was playing around with the new Geometric Patterns embossing folders, I decided to put together a card pairing the embossing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle.

I chose a couple of the patterns from the Bright and Beautiful designer series paper for the background, sentiment layer and one of the balloons, then used the embossed Crumb Cake piece in the middle and added some white thread to my balloons. The embellishments on the Lemon Lolly balloon are 2022-2024 In Color Pearls.

June Stamp Club Projects

For our June Stamp Club projects, I chose three different collections of designer series paper - all of which are on sale this month! Earthen Elegance, Bright and Beautiful and Inked Botanicals and you can find the sale items here...

The scrapbook layout uses the Earthen Elegance designer series paper along with coordinating card stock colors - Copper Clay, Pebbled Path, Pecan Pie, Misty Moonlight and Pretty Peacock. The punch used is the retired Starlit punch.

The first card showcases the Inked Botanicals designer series paper and the Inked and Tiled stamp set. I chose three patterns of the paper and added them to the background before attaching the top layer. There are Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems and Lost Lagoon ribbon added for accents.

Lastly, we used a few patterns from the Bright and Beautiful designer series paper collection and paired that with the Beautiful Balloon bundle. There are some Adhesive Backed Solids Gems added as well.

Contact me for more information about our stamp clubs.

Get Our Celebration On

Over the next few weeks, I am going to try to share some samples of cards made with products that will be in the new catalog beginning May 2nd. The new catalog time always falls into the same time as seed potato shipping so it makes it a little harder to find the time to create fun projects, but I will do my best!

This card uses the Beautiful Balloon bundle which consists of a stamp set and dies. The stamp set has several options for two step stamping and with the help of the dies, there are so many possibilities for this bundle! 

I used a couple of the new (and returning) inks as well - Boho Blue, Pebbled Path and Lemon Lime Twist, along with Real Red, Night of Navy, Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green.
