Paradise Garden Curved Thank You Card

 Greetings! 

Today's card features the Paradise Garden stamp and die bundle.  Stamped silhouettes of flowers and greenery pair beautifully with textured impressions from the hybrid embossing folder.


Techniques include embossing and curving the stamp to fit in the banner die.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

A great bonus to Photopolymer stamps is their pliability.  When wanting to have a message fit inside a curved banner die, it's easy to bend the stamp to fit.  For today's message, I placed the die cutting-side up onto my work surface, placed the clear block over the die and curved the stamp to follow the die shape. 


It's now ready to ink and stamp.  This technique works well with single line messages and also straight line images, giving you even more versatility with your creativity.

======================================================================

Gather Your Supplies:

  • Paradise Garden bundle (Save 10% when you purchase stamp set & die with bundle item#) This bundle includes a hybrid embossing folder as part of the dies. 
  • Melon Mambo cardstock

  • Berry Burst 1/4" shiny ribbon
  • Dreamy Flowers embellishments
  • Stampin' Dimensionals
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
=============================================================

Valley In Bloom Friendly Foliage 3-Square Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features a sweet little print from the Valley In Bloom Designer Series Papers (DSP) and stamped pattern and message from the Friendly Foliage stamp set.  The repeat pattern is stamped using the Stampin' Positioner, which makes getting your images evenly spaced and aligned a breeze!



Techniques include using the Stampin' Positioner for the image on this card.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Get crisp, clean stamped images every time with the Stampin’ Positioner. This easy-to-use stamping platform helps you stamp with precise alignment and even pressure every time. Grid marks on the plates keep your stamps straight while the rubber corners apply uniform pressure for optimal ink coverage. And it’s so easy—just hold the paper in place with the magnets, place and ink the stamp, then press down.

For a repeat pattern, the smaller plate included with the Stampin' Positioner makes this a breeze.  Here are the steps to stamp the pattern shown on today's card.

Place cardstock onto grid paper on platform, position stamp onto cardstock, place magnets onto opposite ends of cardstock to hold in place.  Position plate onto pins over stamp, press down to attach stamp to plate.  


Ink stamp by pressing ink pad onto stamp, place plate back onto pins, press down onto cardstock.

Remove plate, turn cardstock 180 degrees, place magnets, ink stamp, press down onto cardstock.


Remove stamp from plate, clean and dry stamp, line up un-inked stamp on cardstock in new desired position, place magnets, place plate onto pins, press down to attach stamp.  Ink stamp, press plate down to stamp.


Remove plate, turn cardstock 180 degrees, place magnets, ink stamp, press down to stamp onto cardstock.

Pop-up Petals Friendship Bouquet on Plaid Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the Pop-up Petals stamp and die bundle, which is now on the Last Chance list, so I wanted to feature it one more time before it's gone.  It's such a cute bundle with it's simple images to combine for a variety of options.  This set is a two-step stamping set, meaning that multiple stamps are used to create the floral pieces, so it's easy to combine the colors you want for your bouquets.  So fun!


Techniques include two-step stamping, coloring with Blender Pens and embossing.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

To color the butterflies and the leaves on the bouquet, Blender Pens are a great choice.  They pick up whatever ink color you select, and draw it into the tip of the marker.  This allows you to have a temporary marker to color in your image details.  Adding more color is as simple as dipping the tip of the marker back into more ink.  When you are finished with that color, run the marker on some scratch paper until it runs clear, and it's then ready for a new color.

For easy ink pick up, squeeze together a closed ink pad so a little ink from the pad transfers to the underside of the lid.  Open up the ink pad and use the ink on the lid to ink the Blender Pen.  I have it shown here with the Strawberry Slush and Berry Burst ink pads, which I used to color in the butterfly wings and body.  Notice the color variation; the darker area is from the freshly inked Blender Pen, and as the color dissipates, the coloring will lighten.  This makes it a great way to control the color for shading.

Gather Your Supplies:

  • Pop-up Petals bundle (Save 10% when you purchase stamp set & die with bundle item#) Last Chance item - available while supplies last
