Simple Suite Stampers Tutorial - Enjoy The Journey

I made this card for the April Simple Suite Stampers Tutorial. We featured the Enjoy The Journey Suite of products this month.

Each month I collaborate with 11 Demonstrators to create a Tutorial Bundle featuring a suite of products or color them. The bundle is a pdf that you can download and print and it contains pictures, measurements and instructions to make 12 projects with the featured suite.

I send these tutorials to customers who purchase from my Online Store as a thank you. You can purchase the Tutorial Bundle as well by clicking the link below.

My card this month is a camping scene in the woods. I love that the tent dies cut an outline and inside for the tent. The clouds were lightly colored with a Balmy Blue Watercolor Pencil and then Wink Of Stella was added; they look really cool in person.

The inside layer has a great sentiment for someone who is about to start a new chapter in their life - starting college, a new career, traveling, etc.

Simple Stamping - Beautiful Thistle

I made these two simple cards with basic supplies. The first is just ink, paper and stamps and the second is stepped up a little bit with a punched label and butterfly embellishment.

It doesn’t take tons of supplies to make a pretty card.

This is the basic card and I colored the large flower from the Beautiful Thistle Stamp Set with Stampin’ Write Markers. These are water-based markers and can be used to color directly on the stamp.

The colors I chose are Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral and Garden Green. Just color directly on your stamp starting with the lightest color first and then breathe on the stamp to moisten before stamping on your cardstock. I also colored the sentiment with the Calypso Coral Marker.

Note: The markers can only be purchased as a full set in their color family (i.e. Brights, Regals, Subtles, etc.) but you can use any water-based marker.

I stepped this card up by stamping the sentiment on a scrap of Basic White and then punching it using the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch. Add a Brushed Brass Butterfly to finish it off.
