Simple Card Sketch with Floral Impressions

This week on Template Thursday with Tammy I am doing a Simple Card Sketch with Floral Impressions Designer Paper.  I found a new set of sketches from Paper Play Sketches and it was perfect for this Simple Card Sketch with the Floral Impressions Designer Paper.  With August 1st being tomorrow, it always reminds me of Yellow and Sunflowers.  So of course I thought this Template was perfect.

During my video, I briefly mentioned the Ink Swiping Technique—one of my favorite ways to add a vibrant, artistic flair to your cards! While I gave you a quick peek at how it works, I wanted to let you know that I have a full, step-by-step video where I dive deeper into the technique. In that video I walk you through how to layer your ink colors, and show just how quick and easy it is to achieve that beautiful swiped background effect.  You can check out the full video right here!

Double Bridge Pop Up

This week on Teach it Tuesday with Tammy and Jennie, I am doing a Double Bridge Pop Up Fun Fold.  This Double Bridge Pop Up Fun Fold was inspired by my fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, Dawn Griffith.  When I saw this fold, I knew I had to continue with my Summerween Series. Using the Spooky Sweet 12×12 Designer Paper creates the cutest card front—full of playful patterns and festive flair! I paired it with the Spooky Halloween Bundle for the perfected Sentiment.
