Around the Bend 7 x 5 Inspirational Card with Video Tutorial

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I don’t usually make big cards, partly because of the extra postage we have to pay here in the US. So I have always stuck to making them with 1/2 sheet of 11 x 8 1/2 card with the finished card size of 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. Then I received a card from a friend – it was bigger than 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 but still had the regular first class stamp. So I did a little research and found that I could send a max size of 7 x 5 for the same first class stamp – so today’s card is just that size!!

Daisy Garden – Thank You Card Idea

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Having a standard recipe for the layers of a card can be a good start in the design process, today’s card follows a recipe I use quite a lot. That is my starting point, then I choose my colors and stamp set (s).

I may have shared in the past……………….. I love punches, they are one of the first things I look for when a new catalog comes out so while the layout is straightforward I have gone a little overboard with my punches. 🙂

Welcome to my Corner of the World

When I first saw the Ranunculus Romance Stamp set I could see so many card ideas. I love all the little eclectic elements that allows you to build up a great design and then it has a 4 different greetings to cover a bunch of occasions.

My color combination is Cherry Cobbler and Flirty Flamingo, not one I would have thought to use however a couple of scraps laying on the floor sparked my imagination ~ adding the neutral Very Vanilla card and Crumb Cake ink made it work!

Pretty Blossoms in Bloom Birthday Card Idea

Welcome to my Corner of the World

When Stampin’ UP! announced it was introducing the Stamparatus (stamp positioning tool) into its paper crafting tools I was sooooo excited, I was even more excited when I was offered the opportunity to be part of the design ‘team’ during the development phases. Since its release I have used it so much and have a series of videos sharing various techniques for this ‘oh so handy’ tool.

Today’s card is a simple one but has a few techniques, including the Stamparatus, creating greeting banners without punches or dies and a pretty bow tied with the Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon. Read on to find the links to each of these…………….
