Rococo Rose

The 2019-2021 In Colors are leaving us. It's always sad to see these colors go into retirement. I love having all these colors to chose from to create with. I also find that I'm just getting used to the colors and then it is their time to relax on the beach!

Rococo Rose is a beautiful, dusky rose color. I have paired it with Blackberry Bliss and Crumb Cake to make this card. I used the balloon punch for the balloons. I did sponge the edges of the balloons to give them a bit more dimension. 


Butterfly Gala helped me with this color combination, Rococo Rose and Petal Pink. The butterflies were stamped with Rococo Rose and then I added Petal Pink to the insides of a few of the butterflies. I have to admit that I'm not sure about this card. It doesn't feel quite right to me but I couldn't figure out why!


This is Rococo Rose with Merry Merlot and Heartfelt stamp set. I stamped the arrow and added the heart after it was punched out. Really an easy card. You wouldn't have to emboss the Merry Merlot panel. You could stamp on it with one of the smaller images. That would keep this even simpler!


So long Rococo Rose. I have enjoyed you. Maybe we will meet again!

Happy Stampin'!

Floating Easel Cards

Floating easel cards have such WOW power! I have created 3 different ones to show you how wonderful these cards can be.

This first one I made several months ago for a very special confirmation card. This card has two different stops on it so that the cross looks like it is floating within the frame. I like this stop the best.


This beauty would be a great retirement card or graduation card or job change card. Who would you send this card too?


My final card uses the beautiful set Butterfly Gala. The colors are Magenta Madness and Highland Heather.


To create these cards I used a card base of 4 1/4" by 5 1/2". The folding part is cut to 4" by 10 1/2" and scored at 2 5/8" and 5 1/4". To cut the frames out I used 3 framelits that are next to each other in size. The medium one cuts the card front. The large and small cut the frame for the image to hang from. The images are all adhered to a strip of window sheet that is 1/2" in width. You will need to measure how long the piece should be according to the frame that you have created. Make sure you only adhere the  bottom of the frame to the card or it won't rise and float.

I did a Facebook Live creating the butterfly card if you are interested. You can see that video HERE if you would like. 

Hope you are able to create some lovely cards using my ideas as a jumping off point!

Happy Stampin'!
