During my Facebook Live over on my I’d Rather Bee Stampin’ page, I shared two beautiful cards featuring products from the brand new Painterly Pears Suite Collection — the same suite I’ll be using in my July Card Class To Go!

Here is the recording from my FB Live.  Watch how I create two beautiful cards with this suite!  Also watch til the end as I share several new online products that will be released tomorrow, July 1.  Lots of new things to love!

The first card is clean and simple but when you take a closer look, there is a lot to see!  I started by stamping the background with the pear/branch stamp – Lemon Lolly ink onto the Lemon Lolly cardstock base.  Next, I started the same image with Secret Sea ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock – and then added color with the stamp that fill this in.  I used Lemon Lolly to ink up the stamp, and added a touch of Calypso Coral and a sponge dauber.   The rest of the card included several different white die cuts from the bundle – I treated the small flowers as embellishments and scattered them on the card front.

The next card showcases the gorgeous DSP!  The pears, stems and flowers were cropped directly from the DSP. I don’t know about you but I sure love when we have DSP that does this!   It makes creating these cards a snap!   Also show here are the gems and ribbon from this new suite!

FREE TUTORIALS- I send out Weekend Inspiration every weekend that includes a handful of Card Projects with tutorials and supply lists – and yes they are free!  The first card on today’s post is one of the project tutorials!   I send these out to all who are on my email list.  Interested in getting these project sheets?  Simply subscribe to my email list click here:
