Everything is Rosy Day 4: Triple Time Stamping & FB Live Replay

May 16, 2019

For Day 4 of Everything is Rosy Product Medley, I have a couple of cards for you using the Triple Time Stamping Technique.

The trick for Triple Time Stamping is to stamp all three of the white panels at the same time, by "stacking" them on top of each other. Then add a mat for each layer and adhere together on the card re-aligning images.

How'd She DO That? tips for Triple Time Stamping Rosy card:

Product Medley: Everything is Rosy
Paper:
- Night of Navy (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base)
- Whisper White (2" x 3-1/4", 3" x 4-1/4"and 4" x 5-1/4")
- Rose Gold Foil (from kit) (2-1/4" x 3-1/2", 3-1/4" x 4-1/2")
Ink: Melon Mambo, Night of Navy, Balmy Blue (note: flower center & pink leaf is Melon Mambo stamped-off)
Other: Ribbon & label (from kit), Snail & Stampin' Dimensionals

Take a closer look...the flower center & pink leaf are Melon Mambo ink stamped-off first.

After making the first card, I challenged myself to make a masculine card with the Everything is Rosy Product Medley.

Can you tell what's different? There isn't the small top layer. Let's call it, Double Time Stamping.

How'd She DO That? tips for Double Time Stamping Leaf card:

Product Medley: Everything is Rosy
Stamps: A Good Man (coming June 4)
Paper:
- Night of Navy (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base, and 3-1/4" x 4-1/2")
- Crumb Cake (3" x 4-1/4"and 4" x 5-1/4")
Ink: Night of Navy, Crumb Cake
Other: Tailored Tag Punch, Nature's Twine, Snail & Stampin' Dimensionals

Take a closer look...the leaf on the sentiment piece was stamped with Crumb Cake. The sentiment is from A Good Man stamp set, coming June 4.

I was excited that I could create a masculine card with the Everything is Rosy Product Medley - as it gives it even more versatility!

WATCH VIDEO: Everything is Rosy Product Medley - 8 projects!
Includes demonstrations of Quick & Cute cards, Flip-It cards and today's cards

This product medley is a must-have for any card maker. With all of it's contents, you only have to add ink and cardstock.

Add it to your shopping bag today, as the Everything is Rosy Product Medley will only be available during May, while supplies last!

Farewell Lovely As A Tree

May 13, 2019

What can I say...I'll definitely be missing the Lovely as a Tree when it officially retires June 3rd.

Did you know...it is 18 years old? The longest running stamp set. It's timeless tree images will fill any landscape and keep you in tune with nature. They're great for watercoloring, stamping techniques and more.

Lovely as a Tree Stamp Set

Lovely As A Tree Clear-Mount Stamp Set

[127793]

Lovely As A Tree Wood-Mount Stamp Set

[128655]

As I take a stroll down memory lane, I'm reminded of how I developed as a stamper, card maker, photographer, as well as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. We all start at the beginning, but we don't always realized how far we've come.

Lovely as a Tree Painters Tape Stamping VIDEO

Lovely as a Tree Reflection Technique VIDEO

Lovely as a Tree Northern Lights Stamping Technique

Lovely as a Tree - Clear Block Shadow Background Technique

Lovely as a Tree Embossed Resist Glitter:

TIPS before starting:

Mix Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter together to get a glittery embossing powder.
Create "masking template":
- Temporarily adhere a 2-3/8" x 4" piece of scrap cardstock in the very center of a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of scrap cardstock (I used crumb cake).
- Trace around it, then remove it. Use the tracing lines to cut out the center of the cardstock.
- Now the crumb cake piece will have a "window" for you to use for stamping and sponging.

Lovely as a Tree - Versamark Resist

Tips for best results:

Use Glossy Paper (retiring)
Stamp images with Versamark Ink.
Brayer or sponge ink over entire piece of stamped glossy paper. Versamark stamped images will resist the ink.
Optional: add additional stamped images with another color.

Last, but not least, here's a Lovely as a Tree blast from the past (2005). Not only does this card remind me of my earlier days, but reminds of where I started with my stamping, as I had only been stamping for a couple of years by then.

This card was created prior to starting my blog. At the time, I was sharing my creations on the Splitcoaststampers online community. I actually used a scanner to "capture" my cards and then uploaded them to the community. I've come a long way since then. To a camera, then added a photo tent, then upgraded my camera and now use my phone.

Lovely as a Tree - Multicolored Heat Embossing

Stamp tree with Versamark ink.
Then sprinkle various colors of embossing powders in specific areas. Just take a pinch for each area.
When removing the excess - don't put it back in the embossing powder jars, as all of the colors will be mixed together.
Melt with heat tool and watch your creation come to life!

If you do own the Lovely as a Tree stamp set, I hope you enjoy this retirement showcase.

If you don't have the Lovely as a Tree stamp set, you'll want to get it now, before it's gone. As you can see from above, there is so much you can do with it!

Enjoy~Dawn O

Everything is Rosy Product Medley Day 2: #DOswts314 Collar Fold

May 11, 2019

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Inspiration Hop #DOswts314. This week we're showcasing Collar Fun Fold cards!

I knew right away I would be using the Everything is Rosy Product Medley for today's challenge.

Immediately I was drawn to the light pink paper with small flower bunches. It reminded of the dresses I used to put my daughters in when they were little. I thought it might be fun to decorate the collar area to give the impression of a dress.

How'd She DO That? Everything is Rosy Collar Fun Fold card:

Product Medley: Everything is Rosy (stamp set, dies, DSP, mirror embellishments)
Paper:
- Balmy Blue (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base)
- Whisper White (scraps for stamping & die cutting)
- Designer Series Paper (4" x 5-1/4")
Ink: Night of Navy, Melon Mambo
Other: Big Shot, Pearlized Doilies & Stampin' Dimensionals

Collar Fun Fold Tips:

At the middle of a long edge of 4" x 5-1/4" DSP, use scissors to cut in towards center about 2" (experiment on scrap paper as needed)
Fold each side away from the cut edge. I kept about a 3/4" edge at the top of each side (again, experiment as needed)
Adhere to folded card base, and stamp greeting.
Cut a doily in half, adhere under each "flap". Then adhere each flap down with a Stampin' Dimensional.
Decorate with flower die cuts

DOstamping Tips:

On Whisper White cardstock, stamp large flower with Melon Mambo and large leaf with Night of Navy.
Ink smaller flower with Melon Mambo, stamp off on scratch paper, then onto Whisper White. Repeat. Stamp small dots with Night of Night.
Die cut all images with matching shapes.
Arrange around collar and adhere with Stampin' Dimensionals and glue dots.
Finish off with mirror embellishment

I had so much fun with the Collar Fun Fold. I know I'll be trying it again. Have fun creating your own Collar Fun Fold cards and playing with the Everything is Rosy Product Medley!

Stamping with the STARS #311: Spotlighting Technique Inspiration

March 23, 2019

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Inspiration Hop #DOswts311. This week we're having fun with the Spotlighting Technique!

OK, I have to admit it. When I was going through my stamp sets to select just the right image for the Spotlighting Technique, I did not even consider the Dandelion Wishes set. But for some reason it "spoke to me" and jumped into my hands. So I went with it. I'm glad I did, as I'm happy with the results.

How'd She DO That? Dandelion Wishes card:

Whisper White Thick (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
Whisper White (4" x 3" and scrap)
Night of Navy (4-1/2" x 3-1/2" and scrap)

Spotlighting Technique Instructions:

Select a stamp set to use ("outline images" work nicely for this technique)
- I used Dandelion Wishes
Stamp image with black or neutral ink
- I used Night of Navy
Stamp again with same ink on a scrap piece
- or a different colored ink for more "solid image" type - I used Mango Melody
Die cut or punch out only a PORTION of the extra stamped image into a circle (or square, etc) to become the spotlight.
- I used the 1" Circle and 1-1/8" Scallop Circle Punches.
If needed, color the spotlight piece and layer onto a colored cardstock matte.
Then adhere the spotlight piece over the original image, lining up both images.

Wouldn't this be a nice card to let someone know you're thinking of them?

Let your stamps "speak" to you and give the Spotlighting Technique a try!

Stamping with the STARS #309: Texture Folder Stamping Inspiration

February 23, 2019

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Inspiration Hop #DOswts309...Texture Folder Stamping Inspiration!

Here's my interpretation using the Tin Tile Dynamic Texture Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)...

How'd She DO That? tips for Texture Folder Stamping:

Select a Texture Impressions Emboss Folding
Open the folder and on inside, front (the side with Sizzix & Stampin' Up!)...add ink to the folder. You can use direct to folder with an inkpad, or sponge daubers to add different colors. I used both. I swiped the Mango Melody ink pad across the folder. Then used a Sponge Dauber to add Poppy Parade ink in selected areas.
Use a Stampin' Spritzer to spray with water.
Then press the cardstock onto the folder. For a more of a watercolor look, "dance" your fingers across the paper. For a more even look press down on the entire paper.
Optionally - skip the water - for more of a printed look.
When using water, use watercolor paper, Whisper White Thick or (what I prefer is) Shimmery White Paper.

When using the instructions above - using the inside/front of the folder. This is what kind of impression you'll get. However, for me...it was a little to busy for what I was looking for (will use it another time).

Instead, I tried it on the opposite of the folder and I got a different pattern, more of what I was looking for. So experience with both sides of Texture Impressions Embossing Folders. You'll never know what you'll get.

After creating my background, I thought the Sale-a-Bration Home to Roost would make a perfect fit! This fabulous set is available FREE with a $50 order - until March 31st. Get yours today!

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #305: Snow is Glistening - Sponge Dauber Trick

November 28, 2018

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we're having a "showCASE" challenge.

For todays, my eye focused in on the cute embellishment in the lower left corner, so that's what I'm casing!

Talk about a card that is simple, but wow...this one fits the bill. With it's easy Sponge Dauber Trick (see below tips) - you'll get stunning results in no time at all

My Stamping Club Members couldn't get enough of it. I heard surprised oohs, aahs and wows throughout the night. Made me smile. It's always fun to learn a new stamping technique. But even more fun when it's so easy that you can go home and do it yourself!

How'd She DO That? Sponge Dauber Tree card:

Stamps: Snow is Glistening (avail until 11/30)
Paper:
- Real Red (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base, scrap for 1-3/8" scallop circle punch)
- Whisper White (4" x 5-1/4", scrap for 1-1/4" circle punch)
Ink: Real Red, Tuxedo Black Memento
Other: 1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch, Real Red 3/8" Mixed Satin ribbon, Snowflake Trinkets (avail until 11/30), Sponge Dauber, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals
Tip: see below

Tips for creating multi-colored tree with a Sponge Dauber:

Ink of tree image with Real Red ink
Before stamping, add black ink with Sponge Dauber to the larger snowflakes
Breath on stamp to remoisten
Stamp on 4" x 5-1/4" Whisper White Panel
Then - ooh and aah!

So, if you're like me and still need to do some last-minute Christmas cards, I do recommend this one!

Get the Snowflake Showcase Exclusive Products soon, as they will be gone in a couple of days (11/30). Add it to your shopping bag today!

Enjoy~Dawn O

Happiness Surrounds: Snowflake Showcase Ends 11/30

November 28, 2018

It's hard to believe that there is only 2 days left of November. What happened to 2018? It seems to have flown by so fast this year.

Today's card using the Happiness Surrounds stamp set from the Snowflake Showcase special that ends Friday. This stamp set is named correctly, as every card I make with it, makes me happy!

This card was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest made by fellow Demonstrator, Leonie Schroder. Her card used different colors, but I've been in a purple mood lately, thus - purples! We made this card at my Stampin' Club Class night and it was a BIG hit!

How'd She DO That? tips for Happiness Surrounds card:

Stamps: Happiness Surrounds
Paper:
- Whisper White Thick (4-1/4" x 8-1/2" card base)
- Highland Heather (4" x 4")
- Whisper White (3/4" x 3-1/2", and scraps for flower dies)
- Lemon Lime Twist (scraps for leaves dies)
Ink: Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape
Other: Big Shot, Snowfall Thinlits Dies (11/30 - last chance), Lovely Floral Texture Impressions Embossing Folder, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Glue Dots & Stampin' Dimensionals
