A Step Up

Making a few small changes to a card design can easily take it a step up.  Here are three easy card designs using the Snowman Season Stamp Set.  Each one stepped up just it little bit more.

The first card simply uses stamps, ink and paper to create a super cute card. 

Card #1

The second card incorporates a layer of cardstock, lifted with dimensionals, and the addition of rhinestone gems for a little sparkle.  The snowman was also colored with Stampin' Blends.

Card #2

The last card has an added layer of Night of Navy Cardstock, and Night of Navy ribbon to further accent the card.

As you can see, it's super easy to go a step up with your card designs.

2020-2022 In Color Multi-Layer Card - Just Jade + Bumblebee

I'm loving the new In Color collection for 2020-2022.   The new colors, shown below, left to right, are:

• Bumblebee
• Cinnamon Cider
• Just Jade
• Magenta Madness
• Misty Moonlight

The Color scheme for this card features:

• Just Jade
• Bumblebee
• Whisper White
• Gold Foil

You can easily create a coordinated, multi--layer card by using multiple dies from the same set, adding in other complimentary layers form other die sets, or simply using multiple layers of card stock.  For this card, the layers are created using coordinating patterned paper (2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper), along with numerous dies and punches:

• Ornate Layers Dies
• Ornate Borders Dies
• Nature's Roots Dies
• Small Bloom Punch
• Banner Triple Punch
• Butterfly Duet Punch

The stamp sets used include:

• Timeless Tulips for greeting on cover
• Peaceful Moments for inside sentiment (not shown in picture)

Adding multiple layers to your cards can add a whole new dimension of elegance and beauty to your projects.  Using Stampin' Up!'s "designed to coordinate" products, like Designer Series Papers, or the Ornate Layers and Ornate Borders dies, makes it really easy!

Custom Wink of Stella Colors

               +          

Is your Wink of Stella all used up????  Not so fast -- don't throw it away!  There is still lots of shimmer left in it -- it just won't come out anymore.  Follow these steps to get more shimmer + create your own custom Wink of Stella - in Stampin' Up! colors of course.

Work on a protected surface and....

         

1. Remove Cap.
2. Carefully remove insert cartridge by lifting up on the black circle and lay it down on paper towels.         
3. Fill barrel about 1/2 way, with rubbing alcohol.
4. Add several drops of your favorite ink.  It will take about 7-8 drops to see the color.  Remember, it will be mixing with the silver shimmer, and the lighter the ink, the more you'll need.
5. Replace cartridge and shake well.  Prime it by using it on scrap paper before applying to your project.

Now it's ready to use.  The example below was done with a Highland Heather Wink of Stella on Whisper White cardstock.
