Brayer card & NEW Craft Room Tour, Stampin’ Up!

2015-2017 In Colors, 2016 Sale A Bration, 2017 Occasions catalog, Annual Catalog, Brayering, Masculine cards, NEW 2016-17 Stampin' Up Catalog, Something Old & Something New, Stampin' Up

Well hello stampers! How do you like my updated craft room? It was certainly fun to get everyone out and all FINALLY organized! I have a place for everything now……WAIT, well that is until something new and fun comes out anyway 😉

Have you tried to create this beautiful card yet? It was so fun, and the funny thing about watercoloring or brayering, is it changes. It changes as you color, it changes as you add, and it completely changes once it is fully dry. I you haven’t tried it you should, I can almost guarantee that any card will turn out wonderfully. Especially if you give it time to dry. So if you do give this a go, and you don’t like, come back and peek at it the next morning, and I promise it will be a one of a kind beauty, just like you!

Full instructions are in the video , so be sure to give it a look, and you will also find some tips on how to smooth out your image if you are not happy with it.

Base card: Night of Navy 4 1/4″ by 11″, scored at 5 1/2″

Layer: Delightful Dijon 4″by 5 1/4″

Thanks for stopping by,

Until next time……

Stay Crafty!

Bookcase Builder, Stampin’ Up!

Annual Catalog, NEW 2016-17 Stampin' Up Catalog, Stampin' Up

Hey stampers! Here are two quick and fun cards you can create and make exactly your way with the Bookcase Builder photopolymer stamp set.

Truly the hardest part is choosing which accessories you are going to use. I did one with a Bermuda Bay card base, and the other with Wisteria Wonder. I thought they were really easy to make for any type of Baby Shower card, Announcement card, or Welcome Baby gift card!

I thought another cute way to make this card, would be to stamp all your objects in Smokey Slate, and then the one baby item in Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky, So Saffron or Wild Wasabi to show how much light, life and love a baby brings to a sometimes dull world.

I hope you like these two sweet cards and you will give them a try as well!

 

Until next time,

Stay Crafty!!

Rach

Simple Happy Birthday card, Stampin’ Up!

2014-2016 In Colors, 2015-2017 In Colors, 2017 Occasions catalog, Annual Catalog, Birthday cards, DSP Designer Series Paper, NEW 2016-17 Stampin' Up Catalog, Something Old & Something New, Stampin' Up

Hey stampers! We all need a quick card in our arsenal, and this is a great one to keep on hand. You can switch the designer series paper (DSP) out for most any occasion, and also quickly swap out sentiments as well!

I have been trying a combo of stamping with old (Stampin’ Up! annual catalog) and new( 2017 Occasions catalog) these past few weeks. It seems that we sometimes can forget the tried and true stamps, papers and embellishments when a new catalog comes out. But , some of these are true gems and are certainly underused if only by me 🙂

So on to the card, it is super easy, and as I said you can change it to your liking in so many ways.

Base Layer: 4 1/4″ by 11″ , score at 5 1/2″

DSP Layer: 4 1/4″ by. 3 1/2″

Whisper White Layer: 4″ by 3 1/4″

Use a coordinating ink color to match the card stock you chose, then stamp a leaf, bubble or other nondescript image on to the card stock. More on the sides since the DSP will block most of the card.

Stamp your sentiment in the lower left of the Whisper White panel, then add some leaves and flowers to the top right to balance it out.

Line up your DSP layer, and Whisper White layer so you know where to stamp the additional sentiment. You can also leave it off if you do not want it 🙂

Add snail to the DSP and Whisper White layers, and adhere them to the card base.

As always you can add some Stella;) Wink of Stella that is……she always makes everything sparkle in my opinion.

And, there you have it, quick, fun, totally interchangeable to suit your needs.

Until next time, Stay Crafty!
