NC Demos Blog Hop March 2020 Call Me Clover

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop for March 2020! It is almost time to say goodbye to the 2018-2020 In Colors, so this month's blog hop is focused on creating a Monochromatic Masterpiece using our favorite retiring In Color. Call me Clover is not may favorite in-color, but Tracy & I  decided to make one for each color! Check out Tracy's card! I actually made 2 with Call Me Clover.

~Enjoy!



I just loved artwork in the Grandma's House Stamp Set.  I decided to keep this one super simple! I stamped a frame with the Swirly Frames Stamp Set and added a row of flowers using the Grandma's House Stamp Set. The sentiment is stamped with the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set. Add a little coordinating background DSP and tie the whole thing up with some Whisper White Baker's Twine & there you have it a super cute, super simple Thinking of you card! 


I wanted to try out the Sponge Brayer using the gradient technique. I got a little pinspiration for the layout. I sponged Call me Clover over the Flower Foils DSP. I tore the edges of the DSP to add some interest & layered that over Whisper White embossed with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder and then again over a Call Me Clover card base. The sentiment is stamped with the Wonderful Moments Stamp Set and Sweetly Swirled Stamp Set. It is then cut with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies and some Whisper White Flax Ribbon. 



Now go check out these other amazing projects!!




Here is the collection and you can get the details for each card below!

NC Demos Blog Hop March 2020 Pineapple Punch

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop for March 2020! Here are the guidelines:

It is almost time to say goodbye to the 2018-2020 In Colors, so I thought this month we could share our In Color Monochromatic Masterpieces using our favorite retiring In Color.

Your project can ONLY use one of the retiring In Colors. You MAY use Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock and Black ink (Foil colors are ok too!). ALL other ink and cardstock MUST be your single retiring In Color.

So when Tracy & I got together, we decided to make one for each color, see the collection!

~Enjoy!



We used a little inspiration for this background paper card. I tore the edges of the Flowering Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper and inked up the flowers with a sponge dauber. For the larger flowers I gave it a couple of coats to make them darker & the smaller flowers only a light tap to keep them lighter to give the background some more interest. I also crunched up the paper, but did not like the result, so instead I ran it through my embossing machine with the Stone 3D Embossing Folder.

A strip of Pineapple Punch was embossed with the Corrugated Embossing Folder and all tied up with a piece of Whisper White Baker's Twine. The sentiment is stamped with Memento Black Ink and the Wonderful Moments Stamp Set. I ran the sentiment though my dies cut machine with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies using the second largest die, then turning it 90 degrees & cutting it again.

The envelope is stamped with the flowers from the Sweetly Swirled Stamp Set.

Tasteful Textures on All Black

What a surprise! A Bonus craft day with my friend Tracy. We usually only get together once a month, but the stars aligned for us, so we went for it! We created 3 projects this day and this was the second one.

~Enjoy!


We decided on a sketch challenge Tracy wanted to participate in as well as an "All black" challenge. We chose the colors from the sketch challenge with the big exception that the background had to be black. The colors we used were Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay, Smoky Slate, Basic Black and Whisper White.  We both were excited to use the Tasteful Textures bundle. Wait until you see Tracy's card! We only decide on a few elements & then let the day take us where it will - this time it shocked both of us with the results!


The background is new technique, at least for me, where you take a die and cut repeatedly on the background to create a faux embossed pattern, while keeping all the little die cut pieces in place. I really like the effect and this is the second time I have used it. See my Sailing Home example!


Here is the Sketch challenge image and other inspiration from the All Black challenge.
