More High Tide Cards

If you saw my post yesterday, then you saw one of the cards we made in June  for card class.  I was on a roll with this type of card, and had fun making Father's Day cards too. I know, I know, it's way past Father's Day!  But time got away from me, and I love these cards so much I just had to share any way.  

We have red adirondack chairs on our deck, with a nice view of the valley. That is what  inspired this card.  Just imagine sitting on the deck looking out at the valley.  So relaxing. This was a card for my husband, so even on a cold day you can look at this card and enjoy the view. 


These are the cards I made for our dads.  
And I love the light from the lighthouse on the inside too.



The original idea for these card came from an idea I saw on Pinterest from Lynn Starzl.  I loved what she did with the High Tide stamp set and Colorful Seasons Bundle.  

Here's my version of Lynn's card.  I love how she combined the High Tide stamp set with the Colorful Seasons Bundle.  The stamp set gives you all the seasons, plus that adirondack chair die is my favorite!! 

Colorful Seasons Bundle:  Colorful Seasons photopolymer stamp set and Seasonal Layers Framelits Thinlits Dies  145348  $54.00 - save 10% when you buy the bundle!

TIPS AND TRICKS:  Use a Post-It note for your horizon line where the ocean and sky meet.  I used a 1" circle punch on a Post-It for the sun, first using the circle as a mask to sponge the sky, then I used the hole I had punched out of the Post-It as a reverse mask to sponge in the yellow.  



TIPS AND TRICKS:  More sponging!  I love the look you can get from sponging ink on card stock.  When you are sponging onto the Whisper White and Very Vanilla card stock you can blend in the ink colors by going in soft, small circles with your sponge. Not too hard, just hard enough to blend the inks so you loose the texture from the sponge.  It can blend the colors to give it a smooth and soft look.
Supplies: 
High Tide stamp set  $26.00 - 143006
This stamp set comes with 16 stamps, suggested clear blocks: a, b, c, h

High Tide CASEd cards

I really love the High Tide stamp set!  I saw a card on Pinterest in May from Lynn Starzl that I just fell in love with!  I copied it, and made so many variation, and of course offered that card design at one of my June card classes.  
Here's my version of Lynn's card.  I love how she combined the High Tide stamp set with the Colorful Seasons Bundle.  The stamp set gives you all the seasons, plus that adirondack chair die is my favorite!! 

Colorful Seasons Bundle:  Colorful Seasons photopolymer stamp set and Seasonal Layers Framelits Thinlits Dies  145348  $54.00 - save 10% when you buy the bundle!

This beautiful 4-1/4" x 4-1/4" card can also make a great 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" card too.  
Less stamping on this one, just fun with sponging. 
TIPS:  Using Post-It notes to mask areas as you go gives these cards a great feel.  
Wish I was by the ocean enjoying this view!

Funny thing, I was so in love with the front of Lynn's card, that I did not realize her's was a fun fold card!!  What?  Well, now I need to try some more cards and use her layout.  

Hope you enjoyed these cards, they were so fun to make and everyone at class fell in love with them.  While the stamping may take a little time, it is so fun and gives such great results!

TIPS AND TRICKS:  Use a Post-It note for your horizon line where the ocean and sky meet.  I used a 1" circle punch on a Post-It for the sun, first using the circle as a mask to sponge the sky, then I used the hole I had punched out of the Post-It as a reverse mask to sponge in the yellow.

EASTERN PALACE SUITE CARDS

I love the new suite Eastern Palace in the Stampin'Up! catalog, it features a great bundle of photopolymer stamps and dies.  Plus the suite has Eastern Gold Vinyl StickersMini TasselsEastern Palace Specialty Designer Series Paper, and Eastern Palace Assorted Card Stock too.  



This beauty came from my downline Jeanne Treptow and uses the Eastern Beauty stamp set.  We made this card at my second June card class.  Yep, I managed to do 2 classes in June, wow!  Usually it's just 1 class per month.  

Oh, the Glossy White Cardstock has so many fun uses!  This technique uses VersaMark, I stamped VersaMark images on the Glossy White, and sponged on ink, working in small gentle circles to blend in the ink for this card. This was also a card we made at the first June card class.
Janet had this fun card at a shoebox swap I attended. We used the Eastern Beauty Bundle of stamps and dies and Eastern Palace Specialty Designer Series Paper.

For the next two simple and fun cards, my color inspiration was from the Designer Series Paper pack.


 Copper Stampin' Embossing Powder really gives it a nice touch.




Eastern Beauty Bundle of stamps and dies $48.50--Save 10% with the bundle!
The Eastern Palace Suite includes stamps, dies, or a bundle saving 10% on the stamps & dies.  Also in this suite are Eastern Gold Vinyl StickersMini TasselsEastern Palace Specialty Designer Series PaperEastern Palace Assorted Card Stock

June Card Class

There are so many great ideas out there, that's why sometimes I just love to copy and case cards.  And that is what I did for my June card classes.  Here are some fun ideas, and I've listed the people I copied them from. 


I love all the new products in the Stampin'Up! annual catalog!!  June got busy, and I forgot to post photos earlier.  I had 2 classes in June (the stars were aligned and I actually had time for 2 classes this month! What what what??)  That's a good month!

Here are the cards from my second class in June.  I hope to have the other photos posted when I get back from Steamboat after a weekend soccer tournament.  Enjoy.


June Card Class (#2)
Daisy Cards from Jackie Bolus at klompenstampers.com using the Delightful Daisy Bundle, Eastern Beauty was a beautiful card I got in the mail from my downline Jeanne Treptow, and the reflection card in the front was a technique I tried from some different posts online.
These cards feature the Delightful Daisy Bundle (currently on back order, should be back in a few weeks), Eastern Beauty stamp set, and Lovely as a Tree stamp set with a reflection technique.  



Bonus Days are back! For every $50 US you spend July 1–31 (before shipping and tax), you’ll get a $5 US Bonus Days coupon that you can use August 1–31.
