Woven Threads

Frame in the Sweet Sentiments
Have you ever looked at a tapestry? I mean, really looked at one? Usually they’re filled with textures and an assortment of colors, with each thread woven in and telling a story about how it too contributed to the masterpiece of the tapestry.
That’s the story of the Woven Threads Suite, with each stamp carefully manufactured so you can reach out to everyone around you with words of comfort and encouragement. With the Heirloom Frames Dies and 3D Embossing Folder, you can create elegant embossed frames to perfectly encapsulate your sentiments, just as we did in the Heartfelt Sympathy samples above. And don’t forget about the Woven Threads Trim to create the perfect finish to each of your projects, just like in the above Thinking of You card.

August Technique Class - Masking with Paper Towels

We have probably all heard of the Masking Technique, but have you ever done the Masking with Paper Towels Technique?  This was a lot of fun at our Technique Class held last week.  The stamping ladies quickly found out that using the paper towels in our Masking Technique added some great texture to our cards.  Plus the cards were cute and fun to make!

If you are familiar with Masking then Masking with Paper Towels will be a snap!  Using a piece of  heavy cardstock or cardboard, punch a shape with a punch. Take a piece of paper towel and tear a piece, you want the jagged edge to use when you ink your punched image. Place the torn edge of the paper towel under the punched image, sponge ink through the opening of the image and move your paper towel a little at a time until you have the entire image inked.

Card #1 - Take Life by the Reins
 Punch a 2" circle out of cardboard (I used the heavy paper that is found in the Designer Paper), you will only be using the "negative" to sponge ink through the hole to make the sun.

Stamp Sets:  Barn Door, Rustic Retreat (inside sentiment), Let it Ride
Ink:  Early Espresso, Shaded Spruce, Gray Granite, Balmy Blue, Mango Melody
Paper:  Merry Merlot Base, Whisper White Layer, Gray Granite (Barn Door), Black Scrap
Accessories:  Sliding Door Framelits, Dimensions, Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder, Rhinestones, Sponges

Card #2 - Party with the Cows!
 For this card, I punched the Pretty Label Punch to make the clouds on this card, I also punched the Starburst punch to make the mask for the "rolling" hills.

Stamp Set:  Over the Moon
Ink:  Memento Black, Seaside Spray, Pear Pizzazz, Stampin' Blends
Paper:  Pear Pizzazz Base, Whisper White Layer, Pineapple Punch Scraps (Balloon)
Accessories:  Pretty Label Punch, Starburst Punch, Dimension, Googly Eyes

Card #3 - Joy Fold Fancy Fold
Stamp Set:  Woven Heirloom
Ink:  Terracotta Tile, Night of Navy, Smokey Slate, Stampin' Blends (Cajun Craze)
Paper:  Seaside Spray Base, Purple Posy, Terracotta Tile, Woven Threads DSP
Accessories:  Heirloom Frames Embossing Folder, Heirloom Frame Die, Dimensions, Clear Gems (Colored with Stampin' Blends), Seaside Scalloped Linen Ribbon, 4 Petal Flower Punch

Here is the inside of the Joy Fold card.
