Cottage Lane Stamper

 I volunteered to make a couple of graduation cards for our church.  I found this fun and easy fun fold from "Inspiring Ink".   I believe, most college gowns are black and I love how you are able to customize the card with the strips for the college colors. This could easily be used for a high school also. If you wanted you could make a pocket on the bottom for a gift card, it's about the right size. Here's a view from the top  and back. It looks like a graduate from the back with the "cap" and shoulders of the gown.  The tassel is a little hard to see.  I made it from Black Baker's twine that I had on hand.   Check out my video on how to put this card together. Here is the video  (click here if it doesn't show up below on your mobile device):   Sadly, since this is almost the end of the catalog, the golf dies that I used for the laurel wreath is already sold out.  Sorry about that. I try to use what is in stock. ...

 This week's "Tuesdays At Two" features on of my favorite suites from the 2020 - 2021 Annual Catalog: "World of Good" which is retiring.. With it's old world look and beautiful foil accented Designer Series Paper I chose it because of it's sentiments for some very special people.  I will be making a few of these for the people who have been the stronghold of our church during the pandemic.   I paired it with another of my favorite mainstays the "Stitched Nested Dies", which are also retiring May 3, 2020. I will continue to use the for my personal projects.  I try to only use current products for my "Tuesdays At Two", so that, if you like what you see and want to order it, it's still available.  As of this writing, these products are still available but things go fast the last month of the catalog. So I apologize if something I show is gone by the time you want to place your order.  Here's a link to shop quickly for the listed...

For my "Tuesdays At Two" this week I decided to play around with the "All Dressed Up" dies and the "Dressed To Impress" stamp set. I found a Double Z fold card and thought it lended it self well to these two products paired with the "Fine Art Gallery" Designer Series Paper, that I was also using for my "Tuesdays At Two" and decided to do a separate video tutorial, just for this card.   I love the paper from the Fine Art Gallery collection! Here is my Double Z Card fun fold. I paired Flirty Flaming cardstock, with Blushing Bride and Gray Granite ribbon.  There are so many beautiful colors in this collection of DSP!   The perfume bottle is also stamped in Gray Granite with a background of Flirty Flamingo, stamped off once.   Here's the video: If the video does not show up on your click this link .
