A Card for Summer

Hi all!

Summer's still going hot and strong, and we've got a card for you that would be perfect to send to a friend over the next month or so.

This card by Jill Dewey Hawkins is a fun one, isn't it?! 

Imagine creating a whole card ensemble based on this card's design. Apply watercolors to several panels of watercolor paper. Stamp on top. Adhere the panels onto card bases. For added pop, add some stitching around the edges of the cards.

Jill used a phrase from the Summer Adventure stamp set for her card, but you could any type of sentiment with this quick and friendly card design! 

Have you made something lately with Technique Tuesday's clear stamps and steel dies? We'd love to see it! Share it with us on Facebook and through Instagram. Be sure to the use the #TechniqueTuesday hashtag.

One Stamp Set, Two Pretty Flower Cards

Like flowers? You are going to love today's post. We've got two gorgeous cards created by Birgit Edblom with the new Wild Rose stamp set. 

Please give it up for this first card! 

Want to make a card like Birgit's? Sponge green ink onto a panel of cardstock. Adhere it to a card. Stamp the flowers on cardstock and fussy cut them with your scissors. (Not  a fan of fussy cutting? Consider using the coordinating Wild Rose steel dies.) Adhere the flowers to the card and stamp a sentiment on top. 

Now let me turn your attention to Birgit's second card.

This is so fun and such a great way to use the stamp set! Birgit went out of the box by creating a flower bunch. She stamped the flowers twice, fussy cut them and then bunched them together. Great idea!

Story Card Sunday: World's Greatest Best Friend

Hi all!

It's time for another installment of Story Card Sunday.

This week's Story Card is perfect to use on a traditional scrapbook page or in a pocket page. It would also look good on a greeting card. 

Let me show you how to make one like it with Technique Tuesday's clear stamps and steel dies.

Start by cutting a base card with the Story Card dies. You'll also want to cut four flourishes with the Fancy Flourish dies and one "world's" banner and "Greatest" word with the Greatest dies.

Adhere the four flourishes to the base card. Make them look like corners.

Add the banner. Stamp "best friend" with the Mom's Day stamp set. 

Complete the Story Card by adding a few gems or enamel dots.

I hope you enjoyed this week's Story Card Sunday tutorial. Tune in next week to learn how to make another one for your memory keeping and paper crafting projects.
