SHARING THE ART OF HANDCRAFTED CARDS...BY LORI PINTO
Well, the new catalog is out — but the public cannot order any product until June 1st! 🙁 There will be a pre-order of select items released on May 2nd that demonstrators can order from and you can be sure my list will be long… This will give me a good part of the month …
Probably my last two cards using the Avant Garden stamp set for a while…. This was one of the free stamp sets during Sale-A-Bration, and definitely my favorite! I used both Old Olive and Wisteria Wonder for the layers and embossed each with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and the Brick Wall Textured Impressions …
April Class to Go… I am so excited to now offer a ‘Class to Go’ to all my customers, blog and newsletter subscribers! This is good news for those of you that do not live nearby or are local, but not available to make our monthly workshops…AND still want to get a little inky! 🙂 Here’s a …
I was having so much fun with this color blocking technique, that I just kept going. This one ended up being a cute little birthday card. Check out my separate blog post with a tutorial on this very cool and super simple watercolor block technique. 🙂 I love how the colors of the Serene Scenery …
I think this Dragonfly Dreams set was just made to pair up with the Mint Macaron Glimmer Paper! Super simple to put this together with layers of glimmer paper, an embossed (Hexagon Embossing Folder) layer and the beautiful dragonfly as the focal image! I used a sentiment from the Suite Sentiments stamp set. This glimmer …

Since my all time favorite color – Mint Macaron is retiring very soon, I am torn between using it or holding on to it (like a hoarder) for no other reason than not wanting it to be gone forever. A little crazy, I know. 🙂 My kids are always telling me I don’t …
This Special Reason Bundle (stamp set and Stylish Stems Framelits Dies) is so versatile. I decided to make this card very simple with just a few extra touches. I used So Saffron card stock and Subtles DSP along with a piece of Whisper White that I ran through the Big Shot with the Softly Falling …
These little note cards came to be when I was looking for an alternative to one of my Easter cards that we will work on at my next in-home workshop. I usually like to add a little something to the stamper’s gift baggies to store the cards they make at the workshop! 🙂 The …
Oh my goodness, this card was just too cute not to copy from Pinterest! I am casing (copying and sharing with everyone) from a fellow demonstrator, Brian King. I honestly didn’t think the Basket Bunch Bundle was going to be so much fun, but I was wrong! It has so many cute bunnies, chicks, peeps, …
This card was a quick and easy card made from the Basket Bunch Bundle! (Remember, you always save 10% when purchasing the bundle as opposed to buying the stamp set and framelits separately)! 🙂 I used So Saffron card stock and a piece of the So Saffron print from the Subtles DSP. I used the …
