Brightly Gleaming Swaps

I thought I would continue showcasing Brightly Gleaming cards.  I bought this set last year and am still using it a lot.  The card at the top was made by Liz Corpus and the o e at the bottom was made by Tonia Townsend.  I got their cards by participating in a swap.

Brightly Gleaming

This is another card I made inking up my stamps with Frost White Shimmer Paint!this time I stamped on Night of Navy!!  Gorgeous effect!!  

Christmas Gleaming with Shimmer Paint

Tonite I did my Facebook Live on how to use a sponge with Frost White Shimmer Paint and ink your stamps with it to make these beautiful ornaments!  I stamped onto Merry Merlot and think it looks just great!!

Last two Leaves I Love

Just cut lots of leaves and arrange them!

Love More Leaves

When you put drops of reinkers: orange, yellow, and Cajun Craze, onto a block and spritz a little water - the result is stunning.  I did this for the feature leaf.

Fall Wreath

I wanted to make a nice fall sympathy card for a friend.  I did my Live on how to make some nice Fall leaves with great fall colours!

World of Good Suite

Specialty Fold Cards

I did my Facebook Live on these tonight!  I used the Pointsettia DSP and my Gnome Stamp set!  Head over to Shanda’s Stampin’ Spot to see how to make it!

Beautiful Pointsettias

The cards were designed by Gail Ellis and so gorgeous I had to case them!  I designed the box to match the cards.  It will be a great gift!  I would never have used Pear Pizazz for Christmas but it sure looks great!

TOC Tac Toe Challenge

I designed this card for our Westcoast Creator challenge.  I had never done a Tic Tac Toe challenge before!  You had to choose three things in a row so I chose Sequins, pumpkin and orange!

Changes to World Cardmaking Day Class

I decided to add a box to my class so you give it as a gift if you wanted to.   The little box can be made into a Halloween treat box.  $25 for four cards and three boxes!    If you purchase the Love of Leaves Bundle the whole package would be $80.

Beautiful Card!!

Don’t you love getting cards in the mail?  Ann Driscoll made this card and sent it!!   Thanks Ann!

West Coast Creator Blog Hop Fall Card

Welcome to our West Coast Blog Hop for September!   We are all making fall cards using materials from our August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue.    I hope you enjoy all the amazing creations of our team!

I am using the Love of Leaves Bundle.  I just love the stitching on these leaves.  I am trying to make some cards for kits where I do the cutting out and my customers just have to apply their own sentiment.    I also used the Ornate Layers Dies to put behind my leaves and I embossed that with the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder.     The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp sets - a great sentiment especially for times like these.  There are great sentiments in the Love of Leaves stamp set too but I had used a lot of them in the set below.

These are other cards I have made with the Love of Leaves Bundle and am offering this for class in October.   These leaves are great fun to make cards with.

Wink of Stella and Reinkers

The three pictures on this card have all been coloured by dipping my Wink of Stella brush into a drop of reinker and then colouring what you desire!  I coloured the car with Shaded Spruce and the gas can with Real Red.

Pop Up Panel Card with Freezin Fun

I did my Facebook Live showing how to make this pop Up card.  They are so fun to make!!   The inside piece is a little tricky easy enuff once you are shown how!

Forever Fern

These three cards were designed by Gail Ellis.   They are so lovely I had to case them.   My friend and I spent a Saturday making these gorgeous cards!

Christmas Swap Card

This is a card I made for a swap with my Pointsettia Dies.

Basic card

I did my Facebook Live today on how to make more simple cards.   You just cut your cardstock in half the long way or at 5 1/2.   Then you cut a piece of DSP 4” X  3 1/4”.  That goes at the top and a 4” X2” piece at the bottom.  Then you just decorate - kind of like making a pizza!

Embossing Technique

My friend Shirley made this card after watching my Live featuring a technique using white and clear embossing powder.  You emboss with clear first and then another Stamp with white and sponge over everything!  Isn’t it lovely!
