Faux Linen Technique | Bottled Happiness | Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! I have an awesome technique to share with you called Faux Linen. Oddly enough in all my years of cardmaking, I happened upon this technique just last week and I knew I had to try it!

Here's my card!

View my Video Tutorial further below in this post to see how I achieved this look!

Love the richness of the colours I used for my card!

This lovely greeting is from the Happiness Abounds set and I cut it using the Label Me Fancy punch. Check out all that gorgeous texture from the Faux Linen technique! Wow!

VIDEO TUTORIAL

Here's a surprise - I didn't use any dies for this card! I know eh, a big surprise for me too! It was a bit of a challenge for me as I'm addicted to Stampin' Up! dies...oooh and embossing folders! 😊

Wishing you Everything Wonderful | Charming Sentiments | Blog Hop

Hello lovely crafters! Today is our team blog! We've chosen the theme 'New Catalogue' which leaves the door wide open for the unexpected because there are so many fabulous stamps, dies, papers, punches and more to choose! I can't wait to see what everyone has created!

Here's my card! I'm lovin' the pop of colour!

I'm lovin' the pop of colour! One of my fave things to do is use a gorgeous stamp, and this one is from Happiness Abounds, stamp black ink on white paper in clean and simple way, then add a bright colour!

Be sure to view my step by step video tutorial which is a bit further down in this post for all the measurements and additional card details!

This wonderful greeting, along with an entire stamp set was design by US demonstrator Lisa Curcio, and comes with dies that cut close, as if fussy cut - but way better LOL. Seriously though, both the stamp set & coordinating dies are absolutely amazing and a must-have!

Another Sneak Peek | Annual Catalogue | Positive Inkers Blog Hop

Welome to my blog and our Positive Inkers Global Design Team monthly blog hop! We're celebrating the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue that goes live on May 3rd!

Here's my finished card!

I'm featuring several new goodies from the catalogue.

Can you spot them?

Love love love the Hues of Happiness designer series paper!

Gorgeous colours that give the flowers depth. The paper for the greeting is from the back of the same paper, and I heat embossed 'best wishes' from the Happiness Abounds stamp set in white, then cut it using a banner die from Stylish Shapes.

Next, I die cut the flowers using the Blossoming Happiness dies.

Also new - the greenery, or in this case, the white greenery 😊

I used the wreath in the Natural Print dies, cut it apart to use as leaves & sprigs.

I fell head over heals for the Dots & Spots die! What a super background for projects!
