No Time To Stamp?

Note:  This is Post #2 for today.  Please check out Post #1, new JustRite Product, as well. 

Another month has come and gone and it’s time for our monthly Flower Soft Blog Hop.  Flower Soft has some fun new product to share this month, and I’ll tell you , I had SO much fun doing this.  Can you think of perhaps combining a snow globe and a shaker card?  Well, that’s just what I have to show you today — take a look:

Talk about fun!!!  Truly, a Snow Globe filled with a layered image and some snow to shake (Polar White Flower Soft)!  And easy, just my style — the Aperature Cards with the oval cutouts come all set and ready for us to use.  The plastic domes fit (Snow Globes) them perfectly.  And the images that I’ve layered come pre-printed (3-D Cutout Toppers) ready for us to cut out and layer with dimensionals.  Take a look at the product:

This is exactly what I used to make my card — the Aperature Cards with Envelopes, the 3-D Cutouts, the Snow Globes, Polar White Flower Soft and Flower Soft Glue.  You’ll need to have your own dimensional products — I used SU Dimensionals.  And the Good News — exactly what you see above is being offered as blog candy at the Flower Soft Blog, so make sure you head over to the Flower Soft Blog to enter for your chance to win this fun prize!

Here’s a bit more detail for you to see.  The layered image inside has Polar White Flower Soft applied to appear as both fallen snow and the fuzz on the girls jacket/hood.  My ribbons, both 1.5″ and 3/8″ are May Arts Gingham, and the buttons are Basic Grey.  I carry both in the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. 

The DP is Frosty Days by SU.  And I might add, the card is white.  It was quick and easy to cover it with this DP.  I used the very largest solid oval in the Petite Oval Nestabilities.  The shape is PERFECT!  I cut a sheet of paper 5.75″ wide x 12″ long (that’s how long the DP was).  I placed my large Oval on the sheet so when it was cut I could place my sheet over the card.  Just make sure you place your Oval so once cut the DP covers all of the card.  Once the Snow Globe is glued onto your card, then apply adhesive to the card front and carefully place the DP over the globe, making sure you get a nice even white border around your globe.  Now, the DP is much larger than the card.  It’s now easy to go to your paper cutter and carefully trim of all excess DP.  This is quick and not any time is spent fussing with measurements!

Just trying to show you the dimension of both the globe itself and the layered images inside.

Now I must apologize for this very late post.  Today just did not go the way I had planned — it’s nearly 4 a.m. so I’m only going to post the photos of my project.  I’ll come back tomorrow morning to add the supplies and details for you — thanks for understanding.  Editing:  Added!!!  Measurements provided below as well!

Journal Notes (Christmas),  Flower Soft Vintage Envelope Sentiments, Flower Soft Polar White, Flower Soft Glue,  SU Dazzling Diamonds applied with Quickie Glue Pen, Basic Grey Buttons, May Arts White Ruffled Faux Suede Ribbon, Offray Wired Ribbon from Wal-Mart, Hairy Yarn from Wal-Mart , SU Bella Bleu DP, Pewter Jumbo Eyelets and Felt Snowflake covered with Dazzling Diamonds

There is NO stamping on this project and it is so soft and pretty, IRL, with tons of texture from the Flower Soft snow on each panel and the glitz of the Dazzling Diamonds, which is lost in the photos — so sorry.

All images are from the Christmas Journal Note pad I carry in the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  Here I’ve made my snowy border very textural with Polar White Flower Soft and added a bit of glitz to the birds and berries with Dazzling Diamonds.  Doing something on this order to a Journal Notes image would make a quick and easy card front for Christmas!

This center panel is SO sparkly and glitzy IRL.  The bottom is the Polar White snow and the trees are all Dazzling Diamonds.  The piece is a bottom half (journal portion) from the Jouranal Notes pad.  I intended this panel to be where the giver would sign the *card*.  These cute envelopes are all from the Vintage Envelope Sentiments by Flower Soft, put on with an SU Dimensional.  They add a nice touch!

This panel is the bottom half of the first bird panel from the Journal Note sheet (Christmas).  I am LOVING this 5/8″ Ruffled Faux Suede.  The pure white looks so good with a Christmasy/wintery theme.  It’s soft and easy to tie.  My buttons are all by Basic Grey.

Here’s the how-to for this sized accordion:

Cut paper 12″ x 5″.  Score at 4″ and in again 4″, or at 4 and 8.  This gives you the 3 panels.

Working on a surface with diagonal lines (I used my Scor Pad), use a ruler and pencil to mark your *peaks*.  Take to paper cutter and cut on your pencil lines.

Cut DP strips 4″ wide and adhere one strip over each panel.  Once applied, it is easy to now come with scissors and cut the DP along your *peak* lines - no measuring — super easy. 

Apply ink direct to all edges of panels for a finished look and decorate away.

Thanks for stopping in!  I hope all the great DT samples encourage you to try a fun 3 panel accordion card — I just LOVE decorating these fun little projects!  I have many more projects to share over the weekend, so hope to see you soon.  Have a wonderful weekend ahead!

Gatefolds  — Today’s challenge deals with how we fold our card — we are going to do Gatefold cards today.  Fun for a change!  Gatefolds are cards that fold in from each side, meeting in the middle, so it opens like a gate.  The folds don’t have to be symmetrical, your opening can be off center if you like.  Check out all the DT samples for some great ideas with this fun fold!!!

And here’s my Gatefold creation for today:

A Christmas card simply made using a Winter Cotton Scrap, a Vintage Envelope Sentiment from Flower Soft, 100% Silk Ribbon (Burgundy), a die cut corner and pretty SU paper, Autumn Traditions  (a fall pack, but I love a few of the prints in it for Christmas).  My gatefold opening is off center and you can scroll down to get measurements for cutting and scoring this fold.

I’m trying to capture the glitz here.  My Cotton Scrap is sewn onto Soft Suede SU cardstock which I distressed afer sewing, using my scissor blades.  I like to sew in this meandering fashion because then you don’t have to be so careful that’s it pefect, and that’s good!  Santa’s hair and beard where dazzled up by drawing lines with my Quickie Glue Pen and sprinkling on SU Dazzling Diamonds.  SOOOO pretty IRL.  The envelope is a fun cutout from a pack called Vintage Envelope Sentiments by Flower Soft — PERFECT for that finishing touch!

Here’s the inside.  I adhered Very Vanilla cardstock, used a Cuttlebug die cut corner inside to match the one on the front, and stamped my inside sentiment with one of the centers from Christmas Treasures by JustRite, used on a 3 1/4″ Wood Stamper.  And can you see on the Cotton Scrap panel how I adhered a piece of cardstock to the back to cover up all my stitching lines and give the inside a cleaned up look?  It also served well in this instance as I could sandwich my ribbon between the layers.  This is the only place where the ribbon is attached to the card.  It merely wraps around the card and you tie your bow on the side.  The recipient then has to open the bow to open the card — FUN!!!  I think so anyway.  It gives a bit of a *present* feel to your card.

My paper is cut to a standard 1/2 sheet - -5.5 x 8.5″.  I used my Scor-It Mini to score my fold lines.  I scored 1 3/4″ from one edge and 2.5″ from the other edge.  Once folded it gives me the standard A2 size of 5 1/2 x 4 1/4″.

So glad you were able to stop in again today — wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead, and hope you can try a Gatefold card if you are so inclined.  They’re fun!  See you soon!

I’m winding down on Hallloween cards, but wanted to get one more in at least!  This was a fun one to make for many reasons.  I used an image from the Halloween Journal Note pad, gave it a little extra zing with 2 colors of Flower Soft, added a sentiment from Witch Way to the Treats by JustRite and used some fun new ribbon I have in stock called Chenille Dots.  Take a look:

Love this pair of  trick-or-treaters!  Can you recognize my background?  I had many odds and ends of the journaling portion of the sheets from the Halloween Journal Note pad so I put them all together in collage fashion to make my background — totally happy with the result and I will surely use up my leftover pieces this way again.

I used Black Flower Soft on the buttons and I used Polar White Flower Soft as a little Snow on the Pumpkin, or hair, whatever you think it looks like — LOL!!!  The girls dress bodice, hat and duck wand are highlighted with Spica Glitter Pens — sparkly and fun IRL.  I finished it off with my sentiment circle from Witch Way to the Treats, my Rusty Pickle Buttons, and my fun and new Chenille Dots Ribbon. This card is rather large at 6.5″ wide x 5.5″ high.

I’m so glad you stopped in today - thank you.  I apologize for my absence again, but we’ve been on the run.  This past weekend we were gone for 3 days to the Detroit area.  We toured the Henry Ford Museum (my DH could have stayed in there forever) and also the Rouge Plant where they make the F150 trucks.  Amazingly, I found touring that assembly line plant totally fascinating and it interested me more than the museum — I could have watched the workers on the line for much longer than we did.  I really enjoyed the movies they showed at the plant as well.  It got a HUGE thumbs up from me!!!  Definitely worth the time if you are in the area!  Well anyway, back to cards — I’ll have our weekly Stamp Simply post up on Thursday evening as usual — and I’m anxious to make this card — I think it’ll be fun!!!  Hope to see you then!

It’s the first of the month again, so that means another fun Flower Soft Blog Hop! Our challenge this month was to create a Halloween themed project using our favorite Flower Soft. Well, my card is more fall or autumn than it is Halloween, so in keeping with the spirit of things, I went with an orange and black color scheme!!! Take a look:

Fun card to make! The white die cut accents pop off the black and the Copic colored JustRite image is accented with just a tiny bit of Flower Soft on the leaves — and oh my — how the addition of that tiny bit of Flower Soft just made the image pop and come to life — amazing. Here’s a close up of it:

Can you see just a tiny bit of Flower Soft on the leaf centers? I applied my Flower Soft Glue to the tiny leaves with the tip of a paper piercer and it worked great. In retrospect I wish I had taken a *before* picture without the Flower Soft so you could compare — it really adds so much. We were asked to use our favorite Flower Soft color — well, my favorite changes depending on the type of project I’m doing. Today I just had to use the Autumn Mix Flower Soft – love it for autumn themed cards. The colors are just lovely and work so well with  fall type images.

Thanks much for stopping in!  I’ll be back later tonight with our weekly Stamp Simply Challenge, so hope to see you then! Thanks much!!!  Have a great day!

Hi everyone!  GLAD to be back connected to the world.  2 days without internet access is a little frustrating!!!  I came home from our usual Sunday activities to find service, and I’m one happy camper!!!  I’ll get to all my emails throughout the evening - thank you for your patience!

I have  a simple CAS remake to share with you this evening.  DS#2 needed a birthday card for 6 year old Emily - like NOW!  Well, nothing in this house ready to go for little girls, so I did some scrambling.  Does anyone remember this card?  Well, I thought that just might do for a 6 year old if I switched out the sentiments.  So, off came Summer and on went her name, Emily, plus a button for good measure.  Here’s the remake:

Please see original post for specific details.  Image is by Cornish Heritage Farms, Copic colored.  I created Emily’s name using font by JustRite — Times New Roman, both Uppercase and Lowercase, used on a Harmony Rectangle Stamper.  And please remember, all the font is still on sale at JustRite Stampers through Sept. 24.  Be sure to check it out!

You’ll also note if you compare the two that I added Flower Soft in Nut Brown to the flower center on Emily’s remake.  Sure adds a lot of interest IRL — I love the addition.

Please note I have a good supply of JustRite Products shown on Page 3 of my store.  Also just want to let you know that I have some FUN new RIBBONS in, as well as a few other little items  – I’ll get them photoed and up on the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store hopefully tomorrow (Monday) sometime!  So stay tuned — I’ll post here when the new ribbons are all listed.

Thanks much for stopping in and for your patience with me while I was out of service.  Keeping my fingers crossed that doesn’t happen again anytime real soon!!!  Have a wonderful week, everyone.  I’ll be back as soon as I can!

______________________________

Editing to Add:  In reading comments, it has reminded me that not everyone understands all the lingo we use when writing posts.  I think there has been some confusion on the meanings of CAS and CASE, though similar in appearance, very different in meaning.  Let me explain:

CAS means Clean and Simple, as in style of card.

CASE is a term people use, “to case a card”.  Some people refer to is as to *Copy and Share Everything*.  Others refer to it as meaning to *Copy and Steal Everything*.  In either situation, when you CASE a card, you are copying someone else’s work.

 Hope that helps!

Yes!  It is today, and I am fashionably late!!!  But on with the show — this Blog Hop our challenge was to use the Autumn Mix Flower Soft — well, how appropriate!  I decided to use one of the Flower Soft Toppers and gussy it up with the Autumn Mix.  Take a look:

This Wishing Well Topper just called for Autumn colors.  And each time I use my Flower Soft, I am just amazed, over and over again, how quickly it adds so MUCH to a project — they just seem to come to life right before my eyes in a matter of seconds — truly amazing!!!  These toppers are large.  You either need to make a large card or cut the topper down.  My card is 5.25″ x 7.75″.  I like large, so I’m in good shape there!  My DP is from SU, Autumn Traditions, and I love it!  It’s a good match to the Autumn Flower Soft, all of which called for my Rust 100% Silk Ribbon — things were clickin’ in the matchy/matchy department today — LOL!! 

I just wanted to try to get a closer view for you to see — wish you could touch it and see it IRL — so much texture and dimension is added.  When I do a larger surface like this, I like to squirt out a blob of the Flower Soft glue and then pick it up with a toothpick.  I just dab my toothpick around very quickly and then sprinkle on my Flower Soft.  It doesn’t take much glue at all and it sticks on really, really tight!!!  Once its on, it’s on!!!

And, of course, I have to show you my bow! Done on the Bow Easy.  And this Rust Silk is appearing darker in the photo that it is IRL. Sorry about that.  My curled tails are tacked in place with a dab of Aleene’s Fast Grab Tacky Glue.

Thanks much for stopping in today!  Truly do appreciate it.  Hope you are enjoying the lovely weather we are having today — sunny and 75 — just perfect!  See you soon!

I missed Saturday’s Flower Soft Blog Hop — I was so sad about that — but I’m so happy to be able to share this fun card with you today.  Using the Flower Soft Card Toppers makes creating a dynamite card SO easy.  There is NO stamping on this card  — I merely used the Topper kits, layered as instructed (everything is numbered - so easy!), applied my Polar White Flower Soft for snow, tied on my silk ribbon, and done!!!

This is so dimensional and textural in real life — I love it!  Much to feast the eyes on, but so easy to accomplish!    The Card Toppers are large.  I cut this down to 5 1/4″ so it fit onto my 5.5″ square card. 

Here I tried to capture a view of the layers for you.  I used my SU Dimensionals to layer — I think the thickness is just right for my taste!

And I wanted to show you my dog/sentiment.  On the Topper the dog is playing with a snowball.  However, when I spotted this sentiment banner in another of my Flower Soft Topper packs, I could NOT resist cutting off the bird pulling the banner and letting my cute little dog play with the banner!  I thought it made the perfect sentiment for this card!

Thank you again so much for stopping in.  I hope you all had a great weeekend and are enjoying your summer — can’t believe it is August already — oh my!!!  I hope to be back soon — hope you can stop in again – thank you so much!!!

I can just hear my Dad singing that old song!  And that’s exactly what I thought of and heard in my head the entire time I was making this cheerful and sunny yellow card.  I wanted to make this card tonight because I just got some new colors of silk ribbon and I loved this soft and buttery golden yellow color.  I immediately thought of this sunflower image on my Cotton Scraps, and away I went:

Isn’t it just so sunny and cheerful?  I love it!  The image is intentionally off to the left a bit to provide more room for the generous bow done in the 100% Silk Ribbon.  A very simply done card, so similar to many I do.

Can you see the Flower Soft I used on the center of the Sunflower?  I used Nut Brown and it adds so much texture IRL - wish you could see it!  Also a closer look at my ribbon/bow.  It’s a double looped bow made on the Bow Easy.

I’m so glad you stopped in today — I truly appreciate it when you do!  I’ll be busy the next couple days getting a few posts ready for this week and adding some fun new things to the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  I’ve added a Page 3 (above my blog header) where I’ll include a few of my most favorite stamping supplies and some other fun things!  I  also have plans to put kits there and other fun seasonal items.  So though I  am just working on it now, plan to check there from time to time to see what is new and what is changing.  Items on Page 3 will change much more frequently than on the other pages.  Anyway, thanks so much for stopping in!  Truly appreciate it!

Flower Soft, that is!  Our assignment for this month’s Flower Soft Blog Hop was to create an out-of-the-box project using Flower Soft products.  Well, all you have to do is say the word *box* to me, in any context, and I’m right on it — literally, with a *box* — LOL!!!  I LOVE making boxes, but today I had a purchased box sized perfectly to this large Santa image, so I went with it.  Here’s a peek:

My box measures about 8 x 7 x 3″ deep.  The Flower Soft Card Topper Santa (available for purchase July 24) is 5.75″ square.  It is double matted and then adhered to my box covered in River Rock DP.  These Card Toppers are so fun to work with. The Toppers come with punch out parts to layer and build up your image for a FAB 3-D look. The Series is called Cute Christmas and the package I used is called I Love Santa.  There are 6 Toppers and parts for them.  Take a close-up look:

Can you see all of Santa’s Flower Soft?  I used the brand new Polar White, which is SO pretty and has a bit of a sparkle to it.  I used it for Santa’s fluffy hat fur and his beard, but it is also the PERFECT product for snow.  And as much as I hate to think of snow right now, it won’t be long and we will ALL be making snowy white cards!!!!  I’m glad I’m prepared!!!  There were such large areas to cover on this Santa image with glue, I just used my finger to spread my Flower Soft Glue.  Maybe not the most neat way to do things, but it got the job done quickly with good coverage.  And every time I use Flower Soft, I am just amazed at how tightly it sticks and how durable it is.  It just does NOT flake off and get all over like other products might.  Gotta really love it for that!

Here I wanted to show you the elevation and 3D effect that is achieved by layering the pieces and parts.  I used the SU Dimensionals between all my layers.  They are thin enough to use when doing these multi-layers - worked just perfectly!

My ribbon is 1.5″ and 3/8″Gingham by May Arts, made using the Bow Easy, both from the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  The cute Don’t Peek tag that teddy is holding is from the new Tiny Words Set by JustRite. My die cut corners are Cuttlebug corner dies run through my Xyron X.  I liked how the curvy border on Don’t Peek kind of matched my die cut corners.
