Artistically Inked Hand Stamped Card

Hello Friends,

The Artistically Inked stamp set is a very satisfying stamp set to use especially with a pretty stack of inks.  Today's hand stamped card looks really involved, but it's mostly stamping with a bit of die cutting.  The leaves was cut with the Artistic dies that come in the Artistically Inked Bundle.  The scalloped rectangle and the scalloped trim are dies from the Scalloped Contour die set.

Artistically Inked Stampin' Up!About those colors, I used Pale Papaya (rounded flower and flower center), Polished Pink (bog flower and small trio of flowers), Magenta Madness (dots), Evening Evergreen (upper leaves and hello), and Pear Pizzazz (lower leaf).

The designer paper used for the scalloped trim is the Expressions in Ink Designer Paper.  Gorgeous!  Love the artistic look, the beautiful color and the gold highlights!


2021-2023 Shimmer Vellum

Ooh!  La La!  Have you seen the 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum?  It's delicious!  I'm not sure if the picture does it justice, but the die cut leaves were cut from the Soft Succulent Vellum.  The translucent shimmer is something to behold.

How to Make a Twisted Easel Card

Cut a 11" x 4-1/4" Card Base.  Score at 5-1/2" as you usually would.  Then... , here's the twist, score diagonally from the top right corner to the bottom left corner along the seam as shown.

Cut a 4" piece of designer paper or card stock  and cut diagonally to make the triangular pieces to decorate your card front.

Here's the trick to making your easel stand up.  Pop up your inside piece using dimensionals.  This gives your easel something to catch or lean up against.

Curvy Celebrations Learning From My Mistakes

Curvy Celebrations Stampin' Up!Hello Friends,

Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  After a little trial and error, I was able to knock out a stack of the Curvy Celebration cards in no time.  The Curvy Celebrations Bundle is an early release bundle that will be available in the upcoming January -June 2021 Catalog.  The little birdhouse was actually made using a house die from the Home Together dies from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.

Learning From My Mistakes Curvy Dies 

First Mistake-For the first card that I made, I used the curvy die to cut the card base.  Then I tried to cut the designer paper with the same die hoping that it would match my first curve.  Silly me!  That did not work out so well, but I did learn something.

For this particular card design, it is much better to cut the curve on the designer paper first.

After cutting the curves on the designer paper adhere to the card base as shown.  That's when I made my second mistake.  Let's just say that I wouldn't recommend using glue to adhere the designer paper to the card base. Cutting machines work with pressure and pressure causes the glue to ooze out.  I felt like I was in kindergarten all over again. Use tape!

To make the second cut simply line up the die along the curve of the first cut on the designer paper.  That was so much easier!
