0 Comments

 
For last night's Mystery Stamping, we made a super simple card that is easy to adapt to different stamp sets. I've created a card sketch for you as well so that you can see the basic layout of this easy card design. If you haven't joined me for Mystery Stamping yet, make plans to join me next Tuesday at 8:00 pm eastern on the On Y Go! Stamping Facebook page. You'll want to join the group early so that you can get the supply list on Monday evening. Don't worry, you don't need specific stamps or papers. You can use whatever you have on hand! So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Card making idea using the *NEW* Dragonfly Garden stamp set and the *Retiring* Plaid Tidings patterned paper. Be sure to get this gorgeous paper before it's gone!
Simple card design idea using the *NEW* Dragonfly Garden stamp set and the *RETIRING* Plaid Tidings patterned paper. This paper works so well with so many stamps and designs. Be sure to get some before it is discontinued on January 4.
My first card sample uses the new Dragonfly Garden stamp set. All of the stamps I used for these projects will be available in the upcoming 2021 January-June Mini Catalog. The Dragonfly Garden is part of a larger suite that includes a punch for the dragonfly and patterned paper. I cut the circles using the Layering Circle dies and stamped the images using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. I colored with Stampin' Blends in Mango Melody, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, and Rich Razzleberry. The card base is Crumb Cake and I've embossed it with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. The bow is created with the Forever Greenery Ribbon Combo pack. And of course, I add a little Wink of Stella to the dragonfly wings so that they have a little sparkle!

Step-by-step Instructions for completing this easy card idea

  1. Adhere the piece of 2 ½” x 4” patterned paper to the piece of 2 ¾” x 4 ¼” cardstock.
  2. Adhere the layered piece of 2 ½” x 4” patterned paper towards the lower right of the piece of 5 ¼” x 4” cardstock, leaving about a ¼” border on the right and bottom.
  3. Tie a piece of ribbon around the piece of 5 ¼” x 4” cardstock with the knot or bow towards the upper left of the piece of patterned paper.
  4. Stamp a small sentiment in the upper right quadrant of your circle (or other shape).
  5. Stamp an image on the open area of your circle. It can extend off the circle. Color if needed.
  6. Adhere the circle to the piece of 5 ¼” x 4” cardstock towards the bottom left. It should overlap the piece of patterned paper and the ribbon. 
  7. Fold the piece of 8 ½” x 5 ½” cardstock in half on the score line.
  8. Adhere the piece of 5 ¼” x 4” cardstock to the card front.

Enjoy the Moment Card Idea

My 2nd card idea uses the Enjoy the Moment stamp set, also from the upcoming mini catalog. While my set is in French, this set is also available in English, bien sûr. I stamped with the Tuxedo Black Memento ink pad and colored with the Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends to match the Crumb Cake card base. The Plaid Tidings patterned paper is mounted on Basic Black cardstock. I added a few iridescent pearls for a little bling. These fun embellishments are being discontinued at the end of December!

Easy card making idea using the *NEW* Hot Dog stamp set and the soon-to-be *DISCONTINUED* Plaid Tidings patterned paper from Stampin' Up!

Bone-Jour Card Design

The Hot Dog stamp set is one of my absolute favorite stamp sets in the new Mini Catalog. It has 3 adorable dogs and all sorts of add-ons to dress them up with - bowtie, beret, party hat, cone of shame. Plus, a variety of sentiments. So much fun! Here, colored the puppy with Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends and added an Pumpkin Pie Beret. The card base is Pretty Peacock with Pumpkin Pie to match the Plaid Tidings patterned paper. The circle for the dog is punched with the 2" circle punch. I can't wait to make more cards with this stamp set because it's just too much fun!
