I hope you’ve enjoyed all the bird goodness that Our Daily Bread Designs has offered this month.  The birds are gorgeous and the sentiments that accompany them are amazing.  I have two cards to share using this months sets.   This card from the He Watches Me Set has one of my very favorite quotes :-)

I framed the birds using Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SM and Spellbinders™ Standard Circles LG then embellished with cut bits of Martha Stewart  Daisy Fan Border Punch. 

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs – He Watches Me
Paper:  Bazzill, K & Co. – TC Blossomwood
Ink:  Memento – Rich Cocoa, Blue dye based ink
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Standard Circles SM, Spellbinders™ Standard Circles LG, Martha Stewart Daisy Fan Border Punch.  Pearls, Ribbon


The next card is made using Our Daily Bread Designs You Will Find Refuge Set, with this charming little Chickadee.  I colored the Chickadee with Copic Markers and sponged in the background  while still in the Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals SM die.  I slipped in a layer cut in the round using Martha Stewart Iron Gate Corner Punch.  Quite some time ago I created a tutorial that shows you how to create a circle or circular frame using a corner punch – you can find it HERE; it works marvelously with the newer MS corner punches as well.  Underneath that decorative layer I stacked another Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG and Spellbinders™ Classic Scalloped Ovals LG.  One of my favorite shapes for sentiments (because it is the perfect size) is like a surprise bonus in the Spellbinders™ Polka Dot Frame.  This shape comes from the inside of the smallest frame.   

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Our Daily Bread Designs – You Will Find Refuge
Paper:  Bazzill, K &Co. – TC Blossomwood
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black, Colorbox Chanti, Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink, CTMH Creme Brulee
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG, Spellbinders™ Class Ovals SM, Spellbinders™ Classic Scalloped Ovals LG, Spellbinders™ Polka Dot Frame, Martha Stewart Iron Gate Corner Punch, Clear Embossing Powder, Ribbon

Thanks for stopping in to see what I was up to.  You’re always welcome, friends!

ETA:  Above I referenced a tutorial I created back in 2008 that teaches you how to create a circular frame using a corner punch.  I received a question that I wanted to address quickly.  The question asked was how to take the wings off of the Martha Stewart Punches and the answer is please don’t remove them.  The Martha Stewart punches can be used just as if they were a regular punch, with the wings in, so there is no need to remove anything.

Greetings,

Just a little bit of fixing up and I was able to get this card off of my work table where it has languished for longer than I should admit.   This sweet Magnolia called #352 Tilda with Kitty from Magnolia-licious is as cute as a button.   I stamped her with a Tuxedo Black Memento Stamp pad on Neenah Classic Crest (Solar White) paper and colored her with Copic Markers.  And, what would we ever do without Antique Linen?  My paper was stark white so I dulled it up with Antique Linen Distress Ink including the pristine white ribbon.  

I pulled out several of my Martha Stewart punches for the flowers on the right side of my card.  Yep, an easy card!

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Magnolia – #352 Tilda with Kitty
Paper:  Cosmo Cricket, Bazzill
Ink:  Memento – Tuxedo Black, Antique Linen Distress Ink
Accessories:  Copic Markers, Ribbon, Martha Stewart Crown Border, Crown Corner, Round Lattice Border, 10 Petal Flower, Large Chrysanthemum , Pop Up Flower, Corner Rounder

 Thanks for stopping by and for goodness sake, go and have a great weekend!

    She’s adorable Bekka! I had decided that I didn’t need those particular MS punches…well guess what…now I know I do need them. Thanks, I think! I do love a punch. At least I already have the loop set, thank goodness. Punch art went out of vogue a few years ago and I’m so happy to see it making a comeback. :)

    how do you distress with the antique , is your card stock gloss? I often find that in my scrapping the page is just too white and I don’t necessarily want to put a colour behind. I know I have the Tim Holtz distress pads, is that it?ReplyCancel

Happy Valentines Day my sweet friends!  I am getting the queen treatment today but wanted to stop long enough to get some blog business taken care of.  At long last I’ve finished the Woven Lattice Tutorial!  Yay!  Even though I have used it here for Valentines Day, it will also be perfect for Easter.  I originally created the Woven Lattice in December 2009 and could not figure out exactly how I did it.  Well, I’ve figured all that out now and in the making of video created quite a few panels.  I can do it fairly quickly now so I created a basket and companion card to give to my Hubby today.  When I was thinking on what to do with the panels, I knew that I wanted to use this stunning Waltzingmouse Stamps set (called Seasons of Love) featuring a filigree heart (before it was too late – whew, just in under the wire :-)  Claire’s stamps are truly magnificent and this set is no exception.   I love, love, love the accent stamps like the little heart flourish that I was able to put on each side.

I created a box with a large scallop for the lid – I’ll share the template as soon as I can get it down on paper.  Under each large scallop I used Spellbinders™ Petite Scalloped Circles LG cut in half.   For the body of the basket  I used Spellbinders™ Scalloped Edge Frame and created four of the Woven Lattice Panels.   I used the large heart on the basket and cut it out with Spellbinders™ Classic Heart – I also used Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG to cut out the center oval.   For the matching tag I used Spellbinders™ Ribbon Tags Trio Two (with one end clipped off) to make a medallion that also includes Spellbinders™ Petite Scalloped Ovals LG.  Keeping it simple, just a tied ribbon around the body and the bow is perfectly framed by the hole in the heart.


Lastly, for the handle I cut a long strip with a Martha Stewart border punch that I lined up to cut on both sides making the handle symmetrical (aha…answering this ahead of time because I know someone will email this question, lol!!)


I created a companion card to go along with the basket.  It’s a side open card (which I rarely do) and It has all the same elements as the basket.  I reaaaaaallly got into making this set – ahhh the pleasures of stamping!

Project Recipe:
Stamps:  Waltzingmouse Stamps – Seasons of Love
Paper:  Bazzill, The Paper Company
Ink:  Martha Stewart
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Classic Hearts, Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals LG, Spellbinders™ Scalloped Edge Frame, Spellbinders™ Ribbon Tags Trio Two, Spellbinders™ Petite Scalloped Circles LG, Spellbinders™ Petite Scalloped Ovals LG, Martha Stewart Border Punch, Pearls, Ribbon

So you wanna try?  Below I have a Guide that you can download that will serve as a roadmap of sorts to use along with the video tutorial.   A word of warning . . . this was a very difficult video to produce, I had to reshoot it more times than I care to admit.  Please look upon it with a kind eye, I am using the most basic equipment and I think I’ve stretched it beyond it’s capability.  You may need to pause the video to read some of the captions because the text capability of Windows Movie Maker is severely lacking.

You can access the video tutorial here:

Now, on to the Blog Candy Winner! My goodness to sit and read the comments and the things you all have put on your list to do rather than dream about brought tears to my eyes several times during the week.  My daughter came up with the idea of the bucket list and I was afraid it might offend someone.  Well I was so wrong – you all just jumped right in and shared your hearts!  So….drumroll!!!!

Random.org picked #264

264 corresponds to Becky Johnson who said:

Congratulations!!!! You are truly an inspiration to many. That is your Gift. #1 on my list is to walk again. I have had MS 37+ years and was recently diagnosed with arthritis. We all get it sooner or later but it’s a poor mix. I’ve walked until a couple of years ago so I’m lucky and God willing, I will again. I am always upbeat. And I’m a fighter. Your blog and all your creations are very important to me
and give me the inspiration I need.
Peace. Becky Johnson

Congratuations Becky – you are the winner!!  Please shoot me an acknowledgment through my contact page and I’ll get your items in the mail to you.

Yes, this was a long post today, thank you all for hanging in there.  Be blessed and have a wonderful Valentines Day!

  • Wanda ThomasFebruary 14, 2010 - 6:06 pm

    Hi Becca – I’ve been waiting for this one; could send pictures of the mutilated frames I’ve tried on my own. But you made it so incredibly simple.
    I was not able to get to the .pdf file for the template. I think I can work from the picture but would like to make some notes on it if there is a bigger copy.
    Also is there a preferred ribbon width (and length). And have you tried it with the double sided ribbon? If so, how does that look?
    Thanks again so very much!!ReplyCancel

  • Liz WeberFebruary 14, 2010 - 6:16 pm

  • Shirley LeeFebruary 14, 2010 - 6:32 pm

    Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Your tutorial was great, too.

    A couple of questions…how much ribbon does it take to do the weaving? Do you cut the ribbon off the spool ahead of time or just take it from the roll as you are doing the weaving. I’m actually going to try it and hopefully won’t get too frustrated. Thanks again for taking the time to drawn the diagram and make the tutorial! Happy Valentine’s Day!

It has to be the most beautiful creation I have ever seen in the paper crafting industry. I just can’t stop looking at it! My wish is that you make yet another one for Easter as well and post it on your blog! It is absolutely breathtaking! Gorgeous! Stunning!

    Hi, again…

    I just love this project. I have this MS border punch, but I can’t figure out what you mean by lining up the paper so as to cut both sides for the handle so it’s symmetrical. I guess I’m just too dumb to live…LOL I tried folding my paper in half and punching, but the paper was too thick.

    Can you tell us how you did the handle specifically? Pretty please??? LOL

    Thanks,
    JanReplyCancel

  • NeenieFebruary 15, 2010 - 10:41 am

    Oh, I know just who will get this for Easter!!! Thanks for the detailed video and for the lattice ribbon weaving guide. Did you know that there is such a thing as a ribbon weaver? I use one when I weave ribbons through English smocking on granddaughters’ dresses. It’s a flat plastic “needle”with an eye just wide enough for narrow ribbon! Your head must actually spin with creativity. Simply AMAZING BECCA!ReplyCancel
