Today I’m sharing the cards I showed during my Facebook Live last Wednesday. You can see the video replay on Facebook or YouTube.
A quick reminder that there will not be a Facebook Live this week as I’ll be in Sydney.
This week’s projects feature the new Christmastime Is Here Suite, which will be available for customers to order on 1 November. Below is a picture of the stamp set and coordinating dies.
On the video I show how I use my Stamparatus to precisely line up the different elements that form the complex image. I also talk about strategies to avoid getting too much ink on the photopolymer DistINKtive watercolour stamps. Interestingly, this is the first double-case set that features both photopolymer and red rubber stamps.
I also showed a few other cards I’ve made with this suite:
The top card’s image is cut from a piece of the coordinating Designer Series Paper, which also fits the large image die. The bottom one is the other floral cluster on that paper, but since it doesn’t have a coordinating die I used my e-cutter (Brother Scan N Cut) to do most of it and my paper snips to get what it didn’t.
I used the other dies in the set along with another piece of the DSP to make this 10.5 cm square card:
I encourage you to splash out for this bundle when it’s available on 1 November – the colours are wonderfully rich, and the images are great to work with.
If you need some more inspiration check out my Pinterest Board for this suite. I’ll be adding more pins so keep checking back!
