Thanks a Bunch - Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle

 Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share a simple little card using the Celebrate Sunflower bundle from the 2020-2021 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  I love the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle and I think that it's perfect all year long.  Here's a look at my card.  


I started my card with a piece of Rich Razzleberry Cardstock cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2".  I then added a piece of Just Jade Cardstock to the card base.  Before adding the Just Jade cardstock I used the Greenery Embossing Folders to emboss the cardstock.  I then used the large sunflower die from the Sunflowers Dies from Bumblebee Cardstock.  I used Early Espresso for the center.  I attached a strip of the 2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper to the card front.  The entire card front was attached to the card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  


I then stamped my sentiment onto a 3/4" piece of Whisper White in Basic Gray Ink.  I used the Lovely Label Pick A Punch to punch the ends.  I finished off the card by adding a flat knot with the White Crinkle Seam Binding and a few of the Just Jade Enamel Dots from the 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots.  


Thanks for dropping by today I hope that you have a wonderful day.  If you need any of the supplies that you have seen today you can pick them up in my online store.  You will find a full list of the supplies in my Shopping List below.

3 Nature Inspired Cards - Facebook Live Replay - 8/26/20

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share the 3 Natured Inspired cards that I did during this week's Facebook Live on Wednesday August 26, 2020.  I did not design these cards I am part of the Remarkably Created Coop and each month we submit one design and we have access to all the other projects that are designed by other demonstrators in the group.  I have gone back to see who created each design and I will give each designer credit.  I CASED their designs for my Make & Takes this week.  Here's a look at all three cards.  


I love that I am part of this group and each month we have new inspiration to use in our business.  You will see me make all three of these cards in the video below. I am going to share with you a closer look at each of the projects that I recreated for my Make & Takes and ordering special this week. I didn't give sizes and dimensions for the card because I am offering the tutorials for free as part of the ordering special which ends on Monday, August 31, 2020 at 11:59 pm.  Each card is focused around a different set of products from either the Annual Catalog or the August-December Mini Catalog.  


This was the first card that I showed how to make in the Video This card was designed by Ellen Downs.  It uses the Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set and the Flowers for Every Season DSP. 


The second card that was made was using the Love of Leaves Bundle from the August-December Mini Catalog and was designed by Tammie Perkins.  


The third card uses the Autumn Greetings Bundle and was designed by Janet Wakeland.
