Hi there blog friends!!  I have a card to share today using a newly released JustRite Stampers set in their Cling collection called Forever Friends.  It is the epitome of elegance; the swirling frames are absolutely beautiful!   It’s a bonus that it was designed to match Spellbinders Ribbon Tags Trio Three.  I wanted to pull together a simple card to highlight the sophistication of the frames in this set.    I’ve been on quite the kick using pink these last weeks so I tried to go with another palette instead of pink, to change things up.

My card is essentially a large medallion!  On the bottom I started with Spellbinders Labels Ten embellished with elements from Spellbinders Parisian Accents.  On top of that I added Spellbinders Parisian Motifs and decided to make it into a square frame using Spellbinders Classic Squares Large.  I layered the sentiment on the bottom and a square border on top.  I added a little bit of color to the square frame using Antique Linen distress ink which I smudged on while the frame was still in the die.

I tied my ribbon onto one of the loops on the frame and was able to thread it down the backside of the medallion.  A couple of pearls for highlights and sweet flowers for decoration and I was done :-).

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: JustRite Stampers – Forever Friends
Paper: K and Company, Bazzill
Ink: Antique Linen Distress Ink, Adirondack – Denim
Accessories: Spellbinders Labels Ten, Spellbinders Parisian Accents, Spellbinders Parisian Motifs, Spellbinders Classic Squares LG, Pearls, Ribbon, Recollection Flowers.

    I meant to comment on this card earlier when I first saw it, but after scrolling your blog to see if I’ve missed anything, this one caught my eye again. I’m such a fan of the way you layer dies, and the fancy elegance of your style. This card is another perfect example of why you are the first blog in the list that I follow!ReplyCancel

Hi there blog friends!! I have another video to share with you today – it covers a quick frugal embellishment. I put it to use today because I didn’t have quite the right embellishment for my card. So, let me tell you a little bit about my card first. This new Flourishes set caught my eye – I’ve been planning on how I would use it and finally just sat down and played around with it a bit. The most exciting thing is that it’s a set that matches Spellbinders Nested Pennants!! The Flourishes set I’m using is called Birthday Pennants and the matching set with borders called Strips and Stripes.  The sentiment came from the Flourishes set called Paperwhites.I stamped the sentiment and cut/embossed it using Spellbinders Parisian Accents and backed it with Spellbinders Fancy Tags Three.  I stamped the border from Strips and Stripes and used an EK Success Border Punch for the scroll border.  I cut three of Spellbinders Nested Pennants then stamped with the pennant shape from Birthday Pennants.

I had nothing in my embellishment bin that matched the colors I needed so I broke out the buttons.  I decided wanted to a flower made of buttons so this one came together in a jiffy.  Here’s a video to show you how easy it was:

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Flourishes –  Birthday Pennants, Srips and Stripes, Paperwhites
Paper: My Minds Eye
Ink: Colorbox Pigment – Chianti
Accessories: Spellbinders Nested Pennants, Spellbinders Fancy Tags Three, Spellbinders Parisian Accents, Buttons, Ribbon, Pearls, Clear Embossing Powde

That’s all for me today friends!!  I’m enjoying the rain and getting ready to go and fix a cup of Chai Tea.  I hope you’re cozy too!!

  • ColoradoMarch 30, 2011 - 2:41 pm

    I’m not a big fan of buttons on cards, but this is cute. I never thought of using buttons as being frugal… they are pretty expensive where I see them. Any hints on good places to find them at good prices? I cringe when I think of what happened to all of the buttons my mother had when she passed away… I’m sure they were just all thrown away. She had been a seamstress for many years and had many, many buttons in her stash of notions.ReplyCancel

    Great Idea & Great Video to top your Beautiful card!!!ReplyCancel

  • Naomi A. of ColoradoMarch 30, 2011 - 2:48 pm

    Love the button flowers Becca. You may have told us before, what type of seam binding did you use for the bow? Where do you buy it? Another suggestion, maybe making a list of “most used” supplies and where you buy so we can link and buy as well!:)
    BlessingsReplyCancel

  • ClaudiaMarch 30, 2011 - 2:54 pm

    I think your work is lovely but I have one thought – the embellisments for some of your work is too thick & weighty to send through mail without paying extra postage & that gets to be alot of $$ when sending out lots of cards. That’s just a thought, not criticism.ReplyCancel

  • Mary H.March 30, 2011 - 2:55 pm

    Really neat card. I always enjoy seeing buttons used, as I collect buttons, family & friends collect buttons for me. I’m always searching for creative uses for them. Flea markets, estate sales, and thrift stores are good sources of buttons (if the garment is cheap enough, buy it for any buttons that are on it. Cut off buttons before discarding clothes that are no longer wearable. I’m sure you know all this! LOL) Your site is my first stop every day when checking fav blogs. Hope you are enjoying the rainy day. Blessings.ReplyCancel

    Really pretty card and embellie. You could do a similiar thing with your button punch or button die. You could also use those alcohol inks to color the garage sale button stash to match exactly what is needed at the moment. You get such mileage out of your “toys”. It is wonderful to see and learn and be encouraged to keep thinking, experimenting and crafting. Being frugal doesn’t mean ugly or cheap looking.

Hi there blog friends.  I ran out of steam yesterday and got up early this morning to do some creating.  I put together a card so that I could show you the new flower that I’ve made into a tutorial.  It was fun, I’ve been experimenting around with these flowers for quite some time and I think they’ll be easy to do when I’m in a pinch and need something for a card.  I have to tell you, I’m loving this flower and am trying it out with several different widths of ribbon,   The tutorial has already been taped and when I get home from my Stamp Club Meeting this afternoon, I’ll put it finish editing it and I’ll upload it here. 


I cut a pretty simple medallion using Spellbinders Grand Ovals and Spellbinders Labels Eighteen which I grounded on a cross panel made using Spellbinders Jumbo Scalloped Border Petites and EK Success Abstract Flower Punch.  It’s not quite as many layers as I accustomed to but it worked up quickly. 

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Printworks
Paper: The Girls Paperie, Bazzill
Ink: Versafine Vintage Sepia
Accessories: Spellbinders Grand Ovals, Spellbinders Labels Eighteen, Spellbinders Jumbo Scalloped Borders Petite, EK Success Abstract Flower Punch, Ribbon, Pearls

Remember to pop back in and see how easy the flower is to make when the tutorial is published this afternoon!  Thank you all — your kindness keeps me inspired enough to sit down and craft :-)

    Becca,
    What a really, really pretty card. It is just so delicate and is such a beautiful pink and cream color combination with a bit of white. To me the design and colors of this card signify real caring and love from the person who is giving it to their special friend, a spouse, their mother, etc. It is just down right gorgeous.
    I especially like the Spellbinders Labels 18 die cut / embossed piece that you chose for the sentiment as this label die does not have a whole lot of distracting points on it for this particular card’s use further it sits really nicely on the cream colored Grand Oval die cut / embossed piece and you then placed them above the border of ribbon and the die cut and punched pieces in pink and white with those pretty white pearls on it. You have put all of this work together on a perfect choice of absolutely beautifully designed and colored patterned paper and all I can say is that it may not have all the layers that you are so used to creating with but can I make believe that I am sick so you can send it to me as a get well card?

    Becca, you never cease to amaze me! I have never used Scor Tape, but I do have some of the red liner tape. Do you think that would work? TFS again!

  • Sandy KrastinsMarch 27, 2011 - 12:08 am

    Becca these are beautiful! I have Scor-Tape sitting on my desk and a roll of seam binding. I see a beautiful flower in my future! Thanks for the great idea!

    This brings back some memories. We made these back in my gymnastic days. We used sasheen ribbon (the kind that stuck to itself when moistened) and these were placed on the first place team ribbons. I haven’t seen that type of ribbon in years. Thanks for the how-to and the stroll down memory lane. All of the double sided tapes sure make crafting a lot easier these days.

  • Irene RogersMarch 27, 2011 - 7:52 pm

    I found your blog about a month ago and have checked in and out as I had time. I love your creativity and engineering skills, but more than that, I love your generous spirit and teaching ability. Not only do I see you as creative inpiration, but also as a sort of spiritual advisor. You see I am caring for my parents who are in their 80’s and started to feel the burden. I had given up on making my lampwork beads and polymer clay as it was too much time away from where I needed to be. My sister had inspired me to make a few cards but it wasn’t until I found your blog that I fell in love with the colors and textures and dimension that are possible with paper, glue and ribbon. I am also so sorry to hear of your recent loss and wish to offer my condolences. I am praying for you and your family. Thank you.
