Beautiful Promenade Card & Gift Box Set

I was captivated by the imagery in the Beautiful Promenade Bundle. After experimenting with it, I know why. The artistic images provide so many opportunities for a collage look, I just LOVE it! All products Stampin' Up!

I followed the directions on THIS video from Pootles in the UK to make my box. Easy peasy! The paper for the sliding wrap around my box measures 2 inches by 8 inches. Once embossed with the Garden Trellis Embossing Folder, it is quite pliable and I didn't even have to score it before I wrapped it and secured it on the underneath side of the box. 

I stamped all images before using the embossing folder. I used Bermuda Bay Ink stamped on Coastal Cabana Cardstock for the die cut flower images. (so glad they brought that color back!) The "diamond" shapes were stamped using first, second and third generation images inked with Coastal Cabana. Old Olive was used for the leaf image. Even though it is a little hard to see, there is a punched circle of vellum under each flower and bit of sequin trim. 

Look at all of you receive with the bundle!! It even has an envelope liner die, a "doily" type die and a tag topper die. I haven't had the chance to use those three items yet, but know I will be able to used them with SO much more than just this stamp set. They are most certainly classic must haves that will end up being basics that never leave my workspace!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy Independence Day! What is it they say about "best laid plans"?  For the last several years, I have attempted to think outside the box for my July 4th card. Not sure if it was my menopause brain or just being tired from my day job, but I couldn't come up with anything shiny new this year that was my kind of "different". With that said, I thought I would post some of my favorites from the last several years. A few even have video tutorials! Unless noted, all products are Stampin' Up!

The card below has been my most pinned on Pinterest. I literally woke up one morning thinking about the die cuts from Swirly Scribbles making a wavy flag. It tickles me every time I see someone CASE this card!

 

The one below was one I made after I came up with my tie-dye technique using coffee filters. 

Click HERE to see the video for the above card. There is also a link below that video for my original tie-dye backgrounds. So great for summer!

I didn't use stamps for the card below. But...I LOVE how it turned out. This card was made using my "not your Mother's shaving cream technique". If you haven't seen my less messy way to do the shaving cream technique, hop on over to the video below. 

Click HERE for my version of the shaving cream technique. This video will show you technique for the background, but isn't the actual card. I basically masked the navy & red areas to achieve this look using the technique in the video.
