#SU! Simple Cheerful Daisies with Trim Tip

Life has been hectic...at least in my brain!

If you've been there (or are there now), you'll understand. My husband and I have been having a house built and we've been in a transition state for the last year. Things are almost ready for us to move...again. 

Saying all of that, I missed posting a simple card I created using the new Cheerful Daisies bundle from the new Annual Stampin' Up! catalog. 

I created this card for a swap among other Stampin' Up! demonstrators. And, I wanted something simple and fairly quick. 

You can watch the video I put together where I also share a tip for tying a bow onto the front with saving the amount of thread you use at the same time. I hope you'll take a moment to watch it. Thanks!

You can order anytime for supplies used in this project by visiting my Stampin' Up! Online Store: justalittleink.stampinup.net

#SU! Raised Letter Technique

I'm excited to share this technique with you. As I mention in the video that you can find below, this technique isn't new.

Years ago, I made cards with this technique but used multiple layers of card stock in order to do so.

Using the Foam Adhesive Sheets, this technique is so much easier. I hope you'll watch the video I put together below, as I step you through all the steps to make this beautiful card:

Please consider subscribing to my YouTube channel if you haven't already.  

All supplies can be purchased through my online store: justalttleink.stampinup.net 24/7. And, I've made it easy for you to order. Just click on the photos below for the products you are interested in.

Here are the measurements:

Mango Melody cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored along the 8-1/2" side at 4-1/4"

Garden Green cardstock: 5-1/4" x 4"

Very Vanilla cardstock: 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" (cut 2); 3/4" x 3-1/4" for the greeting

Let me know if you have any questions, and I love to hear your comments as well as photos of the cards you make using this technique.

Easter Gift Card using Masking Technique

I finally got a chance to film a video using the Easter Bunny stamp set. This idea has been in my brain for a few weeks, but with travels and family visiting (thus using my stamp room) I just hadn't had the time to get it put together.

I hope you'll take a few minutes to watch. The idea of using the masking technique to place an easter egg behind the bunny's arms was just too fun. Now to go and help him hold a carrot. Just so much fun and I hope you'll try it out.

Here are the measurements:

Petal Pink cardstock: 4-1/4" x 11", scored along the 11" side at 2-3/4" & 5-1/2"

Basic White cardstock: 2 pieces, 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" (you'll cut each of these using the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes dies

Pear Pizzazz cardstock: scrap that measures at least 1" x 3" (you'll stamp and heat-emboss then cut using the small banner from the Something Fancy dies)

Design a Daydream Designer Series Paper: 2 different prints

    1st print: 2-5/8 x 4-1/8"

    2nd print: 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" & 2-5/8" x 2-3/4" (from this one you'll cut a notch at the top)

Thanks so much for watching! If you haven't yet subscribed to my YouTube channel, I'd be so appreciative if you did. And if you have, thanks so very much!

Blogging MIA

I've been MIA as of late. Lots going on with our new build and just life in general. I hope you'll give me some grace as I'm learning to give myself the same over the next few months. 

Eventually, I'll be in a brand-new stamping space. Until then, thankful for a good rental and temporary (though it's really small) room to use for now.

On top of life just being busy my blog was in need of some attention too. Thankful for a husband who is so technologically adept and who was able to fix my inability to get logged into my blog. 

So, spotty video recording for the time being. But with a blog now fixed, I hope to at least be posting some creations here more regularly. 

Thanks for holding on. Something good is coming!
