Today's card project features the simple technique with patterned paper from this week's premiere video.

I love the ladybug with the black and white background from the Zoo Crew 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper [161304] collection.  The pop of red is the perfect accent.

The photo below shows the inside of the card.  Using a scrap strip of patterned paper adds just the right touch of continuity from the card front.

This versatile set is perfect for creating cards, bookmarks, and more with its meaningful scripture references and beautiful designs.

Today's project is a birthday card using Stampin' Up! Taco Fiesta Photopolymer Stamp Set [160732] that was featured in our LIVE broadcast this week.

This is a precious stamp set and the paper strip technique on this card was just the right choice! 

This cardmaking technique is created by starting off with 1/2" strips that are about 6" long. As you'll see in the video, it's very easy to get started.  Let's take a look...

Lisa's Inklings:

• For this card, these 1/2" strips were arranged to a piece of Basic White cut at 4 x 5 1/4.
• The placement of the first strip sets the angles and size of the overall pattern.
• Patterned paper strips were used here but you can even use different colors of card stock.
• Another option would be to alternate two different paper patterns.

If you enjoy this technique (and, using all those scraps), you'll enjoy this one, too!

Here's a look at the inside of the card...

It's fiesta time and on our Facebook/YouTube LIVE tomorrow, we will be creating a fun and festive card!

For today's project here on Ink and Inspirations, we have another card featuring the no-line watercolor technique using the Stampin' Up! clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. This is a very easy technique that I first demonstrated in my live video last week on Facebook and YouTube. I wanted to share another card using this same technique.

The Dainty Designs has some floral images that are perfect for this technique. With small flowers and delicate stems, it's easy to paint overtop using the tip of your Wink of Stella brush. This is also a technique that can be finished easily and quickly while providing beautiful results. Your family and friends will love the cards you make with this technique.

Suggestion: When gathering your supplies to create a card like this, include a light neutral ink such as Stampin' Up! Sahara Sand, the clear week of stellar brush, and our fluid 100 watercolor paper that is thick and rich and really makes your project look beautiful.

In the video below, I will go through the entire watercolor process. It doesn't take very long as you will be able to see. Be sure you stay and watch through the end of the video to see a photo of the finished card with some adjustments that were made and why I made them.  Let's take a look at this fun watercolor technique using Wink of Stella.

Lisa's Inklings:

• The card base is cut 4 1/4 x 11. 
• The Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper [160834] is cut 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.
• The basic White strip is cut 2 x 5-1/2 and 1/2 x 4 for the sentiment.  The "extra" strip is cut 1/2 x 5 1/2
• Deckled Rectangles Dies [159173] are used to cut the Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper [149612] and Fresh Freesia piece.

Remember the Dainty Flowers 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper [160834] is FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration through February 28th and is available while supplies last! Make sure you get it before it's gone!

It's not too early to start thinking of the 2022 Stampin' Up! Christmas card-making season!  Every year, this card maker is so thankful for all the cards shared with you beginning in late summer so that there is a good early start to my Christmas card stash!

This card is a beautiful sample of the create your own background technique.  Designed by my creative assistant, Catherine, the repetitive use of the Merry Christmas sentiment makes a perfect backdrop for the stamped, colored and die-cut mistletoe.

Here are the details to create this card:

• Cut the card base at 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” and score at 4 1/4”.
• Cut the designer paper at 4” x 5 1/4” then adhere to the base.
• Cut the Poppy Parade CS at 3 5/8” x 4 7/8”.  Glue in the center of the card front.
• Cut a piece of Basic White at 3 1/2” x 4 3/4” and stamp Merry Christmas across as shown.
• Stamp in Memento Black the mistletoe leaves and color with Stampin’ Blends. Use the coordinating die to cut out the image.
• Adhere the mistletoe to the center of the card.
• Stamp the bow and color with Blends then die cut. Add a dimensional to the back and adhere to the top of the mistletoe branch.

The designer paper used is from a beautiful collection that you can still earn for FREE with your qualifying purchase of at least $50 before shipping and tax. Rings Of Love 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper [159939]. Here are two more cards created with this designer paper.

Start now getting ready for the 2022 Stampin' Up! Christmas card-making season and be sure to sign up for my email list to receive a special announcement tomorrow!

On this week's YouTube Premiere, we made this card using the super fun and super easy paper piecing technique! 

It's a shame that I don't use this cardmaking technique more often.  It really adds a simple wow factor to cards.  The stamp set featured is the Driving By Cling Stamp Set (English) [158099] that you can earn for FREE with your $50 qualifying Stampin' Up! purchase from my Online Store. And, you've seen me use this bright and cheery paper before! The Sunshine & Rainbows 6" X 6"  Designer Series Paper [158126] is also a Sale-A-Bration choice that you can earn for FREE. 

Here's the recording of the premiere featuring this card and one other with a simple and basic layout. 

Paper Piecing Card Making Technique

Lisa's Inklings:

• When choosing a stamp for this technique, look for one with larger areas to make your "fussy cutting" easier.
• Before stamping for your paper piecing, scan your designer paper to find the best "scene" for your project.  As you can see on this card, even a partial rainbow looks good.
• Reminder: You will stamp the image twice.  Once on Basic White and once on the patterned paper.

That Sunshine & Rainbows 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper [158126] is awesome!  The colors are cheerful and the designs are diverse and fun! How can you get it for FREE?  Purchase $50 in product before tax and shipping in Stampin' Up! product by the end of the month, February 28, 2022.  Then you can choose this as your FREEBIE.  There is no limit to the amount of FREE Sale-A-Bration items that you can earn.  There are Level 1 items (Free with $50) and Level 2 items (Free with $100).
You can see all of the Sale-A-Bration choices HERE.

Sale-A-Bration will be over before you know it so don't miss out!  You can do your shopping here right now or email me and I will be happy to place your order for you!  Then you can start making cute cards with this paper piecing card making technique!

Join Lisa this evening for a YouTube Premiere with two card-making projects!  One card features an easy paper piecing technique and the other is a simple card layout!

Go there now to set a reminder!

Today's project and video tutorial are all about an easy background technique for your handmade cards.  Your stamps and ink can easily be used for so many techniques and accents on your crafting projects.

In this quick video, you will see a two-step technique.  Both can be used separately but also complement the other when combined.  Let's take a look and get ready to try this magic on your cards!

Easy Background Technique for Handmade Cards

Lisa's Inklings:
-Blending brushes work wonderfully to apply ink to card stock in a subtle way.
-The repetitive background stamping works well with smaller images as well as sentiments.
-The additional technique shown is the layering of identical stamped images to give depth and dimension.

Tip:  I love combining baker's twine or linen thread with ribbon!  It gives your project extra texture.

Here are the supplies used for today's cardmaking project.  I appreciate your support! When you shop with me, it supports my small business and enables me to continue providing content through this blog, via email, and social media.

The Angels Of Peace Cling Stamp Set (English) [156365] is one that can be used during the Christmas season or any time of year.  This little one carries a little holly sprig and there is a more mature angel.  Both are super sweet and pretty and are fun to color.

This project was originally seen on my YouTube Premiere last week.  You can tune in there on most Thursday evenings to see a new project or two and participate in the LIVE chat.

Here's a look at this card in the making with those easy techniques that I mentioned earlier.

Download the Ink and Inspirations Project Sheet PDF Here. This PDF contains project details with measurements and a complete listing of supplies used on this card.

You can save this PDF (linked above) to your files on your device or print it to keep on file.

You can create this card without all the techniques and it would still be a beautiful card and much easier to mass-produce. And, you could always re-create it in a different color scheme.  It would be so pretty in traditional colors, too.  What do you think about this card in pink?  I am loving this color palette featured in the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper [156329].

Now that you've read this post, get the supplies you need to make this card. Thank you for tuning in today for this 2021 Stampin' Up! Christmas card with easy techniques.

Here's a sweet project with a simple spotlighting technique for card making.  This card and video have been ready to share for quite some time and the linen thread is no longer available.  I'll share an alternative during the video.

About the technique...

There is a spotlighting technique that is a little more "detailed" but this method is really easy and I think you will enjoy it for your cards.  Here's a close-up look...

Let's take a look at the video tutorial so you can try it!

Simple Spotlighting Technique for Card Making

Lisa's Inklings:

• Crumb Cake Cardstock [120953] is cut 4 x 8 and scored at 4".
• Basic White Cardstock [159276] is cut 3 x 4 for the outside panel and 3- 3/4 x 3-3/4 for the inside of the card.  You will also need a scrap for the "spotlight".
• Choose a 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 circle from the Layering Circles Dies [151770] for the spotlight piece.
• In Good Taste Designer Series Paper [152494]: 4 x 4
• Substitute (2) 1/4" x 4" strips of Mossy Meadow 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [133676] to border the top and bottom of the outside panel in place of the linen thread.
• This card has colored Basic Rhinestones for accents but the Pastel Pearls are perfect!

Now you can create a card with a simple spotlighting technique to add a pop of interest to your handmade creations!

This week's YouTube Premiere featured an alcohol marker and vellum technique for cardmaking.  This is a really fun technique and you may find yourself doing it over and over.  There will be a supply list below but it's important that you have 99.9% Isopropol Alcohol.  This link takes you to the brand that I purchased from Amazon.

There's just a touch of this technique on the card above.  Can you spot it?

The second card was a remake of an anniversary card that I made for Jackie.  You will see the comparison in the video.

Here's the video for your viewing pleasure. :)

Make your own patterned paper for card making with this One Sheet Wonder using the beautiful Gorgeous Leaves Bundle from Stampin' Up! 

What is a One Sheet Wonder? It's the technique of stamping on one piece of cardstock with several images to create a background look.  You cut this card stock into different pieces to use as layers on a card.  It's a fun process and turns out different every time!

This video is an edited version of last week's Facebook Live.  You can watch me make this patterned paper for today's cardmaking project.

Lisa's Inklings:

• Use one piece of Basic White Cardstock [159276] for stamping the background.
• Merry Merlot Cardstock [146979] is cut at 4-1/4x 11 and scored at 5-1/2.
• Bumblebee Cardstock [153077] is cut 4-1/8 x 5-3/8.
• Basic White Cardstock [159276] strip for sentiment is 3/4 x 2.
• Brushed Metallic Cardstock [153524]  is cut 4 x 4 to die cut leaf.

Tip from the video: Leave some of the "bits" in the die-cut. it gives it a very unique and interesting look!
