February 2022 NC Demos Blog Hop

 Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop we are here the last Sunday of each month and so glad you could join us this evening.  The theme for this month is a stamp set and a punch.  It can be a bundle or just any stamp set and punch and that is what I chose to do.  The card I am making for you was cased from the last NC Demos Stamp A Long, I just loved it and as well as being in this blog hop it will be in one of my card classes I liked it so much.

My card features the Wildlife Wonder stamp set and the cloud punch.

Card base is Evening Evergreen cut 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 DSP is cut 5 1/4 x 4 and glued onto card base set aside for now.

I then took another piece of Evening Evergreen cut 4 1/4 x 9 3/4 and scored it at 3 1/4 and 6 1/2 and accorduan folded.  I then cut from white 2 pieces 3 x 4 and 1 piece from the SAB pack Marbelous 3 x 4

On one piece of white I stamped my sentiment in Black and right above it also in Black stamped the.   owl. On the DSP I stamped the wolf in Black at the bottom and on the last piece of white with Early Espresso and a Blending Brush added a little color to the bottom.

I stamped the Bear also in black on a piece of white and fussy cut him and also stamped out a cloud in the same DSP as the wolf and stamped a sentiment in black on it.  Love this punch for making perfect clouds for sentiments.

Now I put it all together,  the owl piece on the last spot the wolf in the center and added the bear and clouds with dimensionals to the front and with tear n tape added it to the card base. Just love this card and I hope you do too.

Thank you so much for joining me this evening and please make sure to visit all the blogs of these talented demos listed below.  Have a great month and stay safe.

January 2022 NC Demos Blog Hop

 Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop we are here the last Sunday of each month and are so happy you could join us.  The theme for this month is Sale A Bration that wonderful time of the year when you can spend $50 or $100 and get something free.  We all love the free stuff.  So I was happy when it was suggested as a theme as this SAB brochure is full of some amazing products and it was hard to choice just one so I decided to chose a set, it is free with a $100, and I love it the Friendly Hello bundle which is a stamp set and designer series paper.

 I wanted to do something different so I made a Rocker card I haven't seen one done before so I gave it a shot and it worked.  I love using our Basic Borders dies and have always used it on just one side of the card base this time I used it to cut the whold card base and it worked I made a Rocker or Rocking card.

The card base is Pool Party and a regular base of 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4.  Folded the base and got the die as close to the edge and as even as I could and cut it out.

Cut DSP and a piece of Basic White to 5 1/4 x 4 and put the die on one edge so it could easily be layered on the front and on the back.

Another piece of white was cut 3 x 3 and here is where I did my stamping. Bird and sentiment were done in Black and edges were sponged in Pool Party then with a Q-tip and ink I added some color to the bird and to the flowers once this was done put it on the front of the card in the center with dimensionals 

Made a bow with the Pool Party Striped Grosgrain ribbon and added it with a glue dot to the upper right of the card and to finish is added some pearls.  

Added the white piece to the inside and the card it was done and with a flick of the finger it rocks like the wind blowing through the trees.

Thank you so much for stopping by and please make sure to visit the other blogs for some great SAB ideas.  Be safe and looking forward to seeing you next month.
