For my Facebook Live this week, I wanted to showcase the Perched in a Tree bundle – and specifically the Aspen Tree Dies – because they are now one of the FREE Saleabration Rewards you can select with a qualifying $100 product purchase. We all love free, right? These dies are found in the July-December Mini Catalog and are priced at $36 so to get them for free is great!
Watch the video below to see how I made these cards. They are very different – but from the same bundle – showing the versatility of these products!

For my first card, I used a Starry Sky card base, and then added a 4″ x 5 1/4″ panel of Basic White. I ran a piece of the White Glimmer Paper through my Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine with the Aspen Tree die – wanting to create a wintry, snowy look! I also cropped the branch with the White Glimmer Paper. I mounted this onto the Basic White cardstock – using a lot of dimensionals – making certain this panel would pop!

The sweet chubby bird was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock, and cropped with the coordinating die. A bit of color was added to the bird with the “splatter” stamp in the Perched in a Tree stamp set along with some Starry Sky ink. I inked up the bird, stamped off onto scrap paper and then lightly tapped the stamp to the bird. This is a great way to add a little color quickly!

The second card I made uses the Aspen Leaves from the die set – so pretty! This card has a very soft color palette – Pool Party, Soft Sea Foam and Basic White. The Designer Paper strips are from the beautiful Splendid Day Specialty Paper.
I used two strips of the Soft Seafoam DSP, and then added a strip of Pool Party Ribbon. I love the softness that the ribbon adds.

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?

I did a quick Facebook Live yesterday to show how easy it is to make a pretty coordinating envelope for a card. In this case, it coordinates with the card I made on Tuesday.
Watch the video below to see how I made it!

Measurements for the envelope – 8″ x 9 1/2″
score along the 8″ side at 1/2″ and 6 1/4″
Score along the 9 1/2″ side at 2 1/2″ and 7″

I used the Scallop Contour dies to create a label for the front of the envelope. I die cut the same die in both Soft Suede and Basic White. I cut the scalloped edge off of the white piece and adhered it to the Soft Suede panel. I thought it was a perfect way to frame the address.
In case you missed it, here is the card I made on Tuesday.

I had some technical difficulties during my Facebook Live on Monday – but luckily was able to keep a recording. This video shows you how the coordinating card goes together! You can watch the replay to see how to use the Hybrid Embossing folder.

I had some technical difficulties during my Facebook Live yesterday – but luckily was able to keep a recording. I’m sharing it below! For this Live, I shared the Ringed with Nature Bundle – and the super cool Hybrid Embossing Folder. There are several ways to use this folder – and each way is easy once you see how it works!
You can watch the replay to see how to use the Hybrid Embossing folder and also how this card goes together:
