Sparkles, Dazzles, and Bling

Leave a Comment / Cards /

It’s week 4 of Sale-a-bration and this week I will be featuring the Be Dazzled Specialty paper you can get for free. Earlier this month I attended an Online Creative Convention and this was one of our Make and Take projects. I actually changed it up just slightly so I could add in the Be Dazzled Specialty paper. I really like how this card turned out.

Today’s card is a quick one using a variety of products from the July – December Mini Catalog. I love the Intricate Leaves dies, you can even use dies with the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper it just adds the finishing touch. There are eight sheets of 6″ x 6″ paper in each pack which will make a lot of cards. You can get it fro free when you purchase $50 in my Online Store .

Sparkle of the Season Fall Card

I started with Misty Moonlight as my card base cut to 11″ x 4 1/4″, score at 5 1/”. I then ran a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock measured at 5 1/4″ x 4″ through the Cut & Emboss Machine using the Timber 3D embossing folder. The texture and look is just amazing on this card. I stamped the circle image using Misty Moonlight ink onto a Sahara Sand label that was die cut from the Seasonal labels dies. I added a strip of designer paper to the center of the card. I used the Intricate Leaves Dies and cut them from Kraft 6″ x 6″ paper and the Be Dazzling Specialty paper. I adhered these using glue dots and added a Black and White Gingham bow. To finish off the card I added some Champagne Rhinestones I had laying around. For the inside, I took one of the extra leaves that I had die cut an adhered inside on Basic White Cardstock. All the products are listed below. Free PDF download: Sparkle of the Season Fall Card

Beautifully Penned Designer Paper

Tonight’s Live a 645 Facebook Live (8/5/21) we featured 3 different cards using the Beautifully Penned Designer Paper. You can watch the event here or scroll further down for the short clips of each card on You Tube.

Beautifully Penned Nature’s Harvest card. This card featured a Spotlight technique along with the Nature’s Harvest stamp set, Beautifully Penned DSP and combines it with the Layering Circles and Border Basic dies to make this simple but elegant card. To feature the designer paper I used the Basic Border dies to create a focal point. I then layered the card base and with the cardstock layers. I stamped the Floral image using Memento Tuxedo Black on to the Basic White Cardstock and cardstock scrap. I colored the scrap piece using Stampin’ Blends. I just love how smooth the Stampni’ Blends color without an streaks. The images turn out awesome. I then used a layering circle die to cut out portion of the color image to “pop” off my focal image with a dimensional. To finish off the card I added some of the New White Glittered Organdy Ribbon (try say that one time really fast!) and a sweet Bumblebee Trinket. Watch the short video version below.

Beautifully Penned Love You Card

The second card featured in today’s Facebook Live at 645 combined the Beautifully Penned Designer Paper and Harvest Dies to make a stunning card. I wanted to use a different color combination so I chose Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Basic Black. For a Sentiment I grabbed the Create with Friends stamp set which worked out well. A little embossing, a little flicking of a Stampin’ Write marker and TAHDAH a finished card. It was a quick card and easy card to make. Here is a free PDF for this card.

Beautifully Penned Sweet Strawberry Card

I wanted to use some products you may already have on hand to show how this Beautifully Penned Designer Paper will work with any stamp set. I paired it up with the Sweet Strawberry Bundle to make a quick and easy card. You will love that you can see both sides of the designer paper with this card layout. I added some Polished Pink Ribbon and finished it off with the Shaker Shapes as embellishments. During August and September 2021 I will be focusing on a product from our Sale-a-bration items and paring that with products in our July-December Mini Catalog and our Annual Catalog from Stampin’ Up!
