Can you believe that the weekend is here already and this weekend is the "kick off" for the Summer to officially begin! Time flies!!!
Here is another sneak peak of a NEWBIE stamp set that will be in the new upcoming catalog, you can click here to see the earlier post this week using it!
My goal is to showcase with you many different ways that you can use a stamp set so you can really get the best bang for your buck!
This card is a one layer card and I will share with you bullet points to make this. Remember to think out if the box – this was a fun card to put together and I just allowed the sentiment to shine!
- Stamp the sentiment and the flowers on a piece of whisper white. (I used the memento black – just love that ink pad as it always gives such a crisp stamp!)
- Using the circle framelits and Big Shot, cut out the stamped image.
- Use the Aqua Painters and use the cucumber crush and daffodil delight…add some fun color. When you do a minimal amount of coloring like I did here today, you can easily get by without using watercolor paper!
- Run a piece of white that is 1/4" smaller than the base through the big shot with the fun polka dots embossing folder.
- Cut a hole out of the embossed piece using the circle framelits.
- Make a green "ring" with the circle framelits (remember, you just use (2) of the framelits….easy!)
- Using the 3/4" punch , make lots of punches using the NEW In Color Envelope Paper and adhere these fun dots on the embossed image…(this paper is a dream, it is super light weight and sooooo easy for lining envelopes – the price is great as well = a win = win!!!)
- Envelope Liner Framelits to the rescue to give that classic finished touch that we all love!
To me, this is a FUN card! What do you think? The color, Cucumber Crush just screams being happy and who wouldn't love receiving this?
This was like a puzzle to put together and it was FUN to do, every element just fit into the cut circle of the white embossed piece….presto! – No dimensionals today but the POP of fun color of the circles makes the WOW happen!
In the next week I will be doing a fun post listing the "must haves" of staples that we need to have handy to make put crafting process smooth sailing and then when the new catalog comes out…I will add to the list! We have some new "speed products" coming out that I think make doing what we do much easier!

Fun card. I guess I need to get the big dot EF, at least I don’t think I have it yet. This will be fun to try on all sorts of card types. Have a good long weekend. I have to work this afternoon, otherwise no plans. Give the dogs and Daisy big hugs!
Such a cheerful card! I can’t wait to be able to order from the new catalog! My wish list is long and I’m continuously modifying what I “need” to buy right away. I’m thankful my hubby is supportive of my hobby because our bank account is about to take a big hit :). Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy your visit with James.
You too….woot-woot – great weather for up this weekend!
I agree…one happy card!
I know that it is hard to visualize how many ways you can use a stamp set, I want to share with you ideas so you can make a solid decision if you want a certain stamp set…I want you to use it in multiple ways!
Thanks….you too – have fun with the family!
YES…you need this embossing folder – a must have! We will be having James’ dog this weekend….so 6 dogs and 1 pig in the house – now that’s what I call a FULL HOUSE!
You make me smile…we are both blessed to have the great hubbies that we do – John is always so supportive and proud of what I make….we do it for love and it does make a difference! Hugs to Caleb!
