Beautiful Butterflies Bundle - Twisted Background / Floating Butterfly Card - Stamping With Friends - Blogger's Choice

 

Welcome to our Stamping With Friends Blogger's Choice Blog Hop. Are you as excited as I am to see all of the projects the demonstrators in this blog hop have created? Be sure to "hop" all the way around to see every demonstrator's blog post! 😊

Do You Ever Twist It Up? 

I like a twisted background every once in a while. Does that make me a little twisted? Probably so---LOL! 

I just love butterflies, and I really love the BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES Hybrid Bundle. I really love making the wings of the butterflies "float" off of the card front. 

In for this card I used the solid and detailed dies to create my floating butterfly. 

I also made a card with the same layout but I used the hybrid embossing folder for the butterfly. It was for a Monochromatic Instagram Hop featuring the color Pumpkin Pie. See it on Instagram here. 

Let's look even more closely at that stamped then embossed and then die cut butterfly you can make with the BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES Hybrid Embossing Folder that is part of the BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES Bundle. 

Then I remade a stepped up version of my monochromatic card with the Sale-A-Bration 2025 items: BLOOM IMPRESSIONS Designer Series Paper (DSP) and STARSTRUCK Embossing Folder. Do you ever CASE yourself and even step it up a little with a few more visual details? 

Also, did you know you can only get the Sale-A-Bration items free with a qualifying purchase? Talk to your demonstrator who is in this hop, or ask me if you are in the U.S. and need a demonstrator! 

Watch my Friday Live Facebook video from my Stamp With Joy Facebook page to see how I made the butterfly "float" on the front of the card. It's really fun and easy!

Hearts Of Elegance Bundle and Sale-A-Bration Starstruck Emboss Folder - Crafty Challenge - Blog Hop

Welcome to our Crafty Challenge Blog Hop. It's a dice roll challenge this time! There are great projects made by demonstrators from around the globe, so be sure to "hop" all the way around to see every demonstrator's blog post, each with a fabulous project! And if you have an Instagram account, you can see the Instagram Hop with a few more projects by going to my Stamp With Joy Nelson Instagram profile and looking for the image showing this card. 

Stripes, Hearts and Bees? Oh My! 

I love a challenge, and this dice roll certainly was if I was going to meet the challenge of all 5!  

First, I found some scrap strips of the 2024-2026 In Color DSP. I had strips in these colors: Summer Splash, Shy Shamrock and Peach Pie. And I adhered them to Basic White cardstock to create the background layer for my vertical card. 

I also die cut some hearts from the dies in the HEARTS OF ELEGANCE bundle in the same In Colors of cardstock. I needed a "for you" sentiment so I used the SO SINCERE stamp set. And I used BLENDING BRUSHES to create the look of a sponged edge around each of the hearts. To find out how I created the effect of the "lighter toned" embossed pattern, see this video with a different card but the same "sanded embossing folder" technique. The STARSTRUCK embossing folder is a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration item that you can get free with your qualifying product order. Ask me how to get it! 

Before I adhered the hearts, I added ribbon to the background layer and added a bow with glue dots for make it look like I tied the bow all the way around. This saved on the amount of ribbon used. Lastly, I added the TINY BEE TRINKETS to embellish my card project. I think I met all parts of the challenge, what do you think?
