LAYERS OF BEAUTY: SOFT PINK TO BERRY

Layers of Beauty has been all over my craft desk (hint hint, you may see it again!).

  • Stamps: Layers of Beauty, Something Fancy
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Bubble Bath, Moody Mauve, Berry Burst, Gray Granite, Pebble Path, Memento Black
  • Accessories: Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, Layers of Beauty Dies, Something Fancy Dies, Deckle Rectangles Dies, Layers of Beauty Masks, Stampin’ Brushes, Country Lace DSP (on sale August 2024!!), Pebble Path Jute Trim, Naturals Adhesive Back Sequins, Stampin’ Dimensionals

You’re not going to find leaves that color in nature, but frankly Scarlett, I don’t give a dang. (PG-13 Blog). And I think those sequins are from the archive (aka the “retired box”) but the Naturals Sequins are current, and they would work. Full disclosure from the Maui Stamper!

Coloring intricate designs with our masks is easy. Every masks is numbered, although you can go rogue and choose your own sequence. There’s a handy-dandy notch on each successive mask to help you align with precision. The system produces results that make you feel like a Stampin’ Rock Star. Want to be a SRS? Shop the Online Store for your own Layers of Beauty Bundle – it’s addictive.

DIY AUGUST 2024: SPOTLIGHT ON NATURE

I’m late to the Spotlight on Nature party, but I think my first effort makes up for my tardiness. The floral image is a teeny tiny bit too big for my calendar, but I persevered because it’s really all about the butterfly. Tell me what you think:

  • Stamps: Spotlight on Nature
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Daffodil Delight, Peach Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Memento Black
  • Accessories: Stampin’ Blends, Paper Snips, Wink of Stella, Multi-purpose glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals

The images are all colored with Stampin’ Blends – I like to finish them up by taking the lightest blend and using the brush end to smooth over the entire image. The butterfly got a little Wink of Stella to add sparkle (you can see it better below) and I cut a second wing with my snips to add dimension to the butterfly.

That second wing has a body just like the one stamped directly on the calendar. I used a little multi-purpose glue to adhere the two bodies and tucked a couple of narrow pieces of dimensional behind the body on the back of the wing to make sure it stood up from the calendar.

Crystal, Cheryl and I love to create these calendars for you each month. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

And if you are late to the Spotlight on Nature party as I was, shop the Online Store.

EARTHEN TEXTURES featuring DESIGNER SERIES PAPER

Since many of our gorgeous Designer Series papers are on sale this month, I’ve got some inspiration for you! This first card features the Earthen Elegance DSP, and it’s one of my favorites. The colors are rich and the designs are earthy and neutral.

Handmade card with a vase of feathery branches and the sentiment 'your thoughtfulness is much appreciated"
  • Stamps: Earthen Textures
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Gray Granite, Copper Clay, Pretty Peacock, Pebbled Path
  • Accessories: Big Boss, Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder, Earthen Treasures dies, Earthen Elegance Designer Series paper, Best Label punch, 3/8″ Textured Ribbon, Blending Brush

These papers mix well, but they stand alone quite admirably too. More to come on that!

Handmade card with a vase of feathery branches and the sentiment 'your thoughtfulness is much appreciated"

I used the Exposed Brick 3D EF (my new favorite) and added a little age with the blending brush and Pebbled Path ink. This Embossing Folder works well with both top or bottom faces. I used the Best Label punch to finish the end of my sentiment panel.

Inside of card with the sentiment "Thank You"

The sentiments in Earthen Textures are also complimentary, so I’ve added a little message inside with an extra die cut. This design would make a great masculine card, perfect for a birthday or Father’s Day.

Trust me, you can make this card! While there are multiple layers, none of them are difficult. Shop the Online Store for supplies.
