Created at our recent Card Making at Ragamuffin Coffee Roasters free card class morning - this card was so easy and pretty to create. 

Here is how fun and easy to create a thoughtful tree card:
~ Stamp the grass from the Thoughtful Branches stamp set in Old Olive ink on the Whisper White card stock.
~ Stamp the tree trunk in Chocolate Chip ink into the grass.  (Anytime you are stamping with Photopolymer stamps you should have a Stampin' Pierce Mat under your paper for a better stamped image quality.)
~ Stamp your tree top with Old Olive ink pad - because this is a photopolymer stamp set it's easy to see through and is designed for 2-Step stamping (aka layering/building stamps).  I love how easily this layers and looks so good with little effort.
~  Stamp the saying first in the corner with the Soft Sky ink pad and then frame out with the lined/breeze looking image in the same Soft Sky ink pad.
~ Adhere the bow-tied silver ribbon with Glue Dots to the tree (I like to roll the glue dots for such a thin ribbon.)

A picture can take you to a place.  So can a hand-stamped card.  This pretty and easy to create hand-stamped card was a hit at a recent card making class.  Join Us and deliver Summer, a time on your porch swing (if you have one or dream of one) all wrapped up in a  hand-crafted card while connecting and creating with others.

I was told that I'd never be an artist as a student.  Water-coloring was always a go-to as it's so forgiving.  Here a simple card gives me a bit of calm and relaxation in the midst of Summer.

How To: 
~ Stamp this Sitting Here porch stamp with Black Archival ink on the Watercolor Paper* (always stamp any photopolymer stamp set using a Stampin' Pierce Mat under the paper you are stamping on).  
*This paper is designed for water coloring and is thicker, with texture.  Apply extra pressure. 
~  Using the Aqua Painters color** the porch swing and dog, first.  Secondly color in a sky with the Bermuda Bay ink pad and a floor with the Old Olive ink pad. 
~ **Remember, it's a sky and grass - there is no perfection - just apply streaks and pull the color across the paper with the Aqua Painters.
~ Tie two Linen Thread pieces around a piece of Chocolate Chip Card stock (1" x 4-1/4").
~  Apply the stamped and colored piece of art onto the Bermuda Bay card stock.
~  Cover the top with the Chocolate Chip piece and move the ties to lay over the porch swing.  Use Stampin' Dimensional adhesive to adhere this over the swing.
~ Stamp this pillow on the Daffodil Delight card stock.  Add a pop of color with the Tangerine Tango Stampin' Write Marker for fun and interest.

Whether you consider yourself an artist or a hand-crafted card as a piece of art, this handmade card is sure to deliver a slice of calm in our busy lives.  A hit at our recent Card Making Class - it's just lovely to give the gift of an escape, even for a brief moment. We'd love to have you join us to create and connect and deliver some love, all wrapped up in a hand-stamped card. 
Stamping and Summer Hugs ~ Jamie

Create a pretty water color look with NO Water-coloring!!  Using this new Water Color Wash background stamp and the So Saffron ink pad on the Thick Whisper White card stock.  It creates a pretty soft look.  

Stamp the Watercolor Words photopolymer saying in the In-Color Watermelon Wonder ink pad.  Accented with the pretty Gold Wink of Stella on the pretty 'love' and the center of the cut flower.  

Tool Tip Tuesday:  Photopolymer stamps need extra care.  They do not bounce like rubber stamps (clear or wood mounted) do.  Add the Stampin' Pierce Pad (126199) under all projects that use these type stamps.  I use it UNDER my grid paper (130148) in case I stamp outside of the paper.

The stunning water color looking flower comes from the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper (from the Occasions Mini Catalog).  Use the precision Paper Snips (103579) to easily cut these pretty images.  Adhere on the card over this in-color Mossy Meadow ribbon using the Stampin' Dimensional adhesive for added depth.

At our recent Valentine's / Love Crafternoon - this card isn't the typical Valentine but is sure to deliver sparkles and smiles to those who see it.  A mock water-color look - all three elements look but aren't actual water color techniques - how fun is that?  Join Us and create and send love to those in your life wrapped up in a pretty hand-stamped card.

What Others are SAYING about Getting Crafty with Jamie

Jamie is so passionate and creative about making cards - and wants everyone else to join her in the fun! She is so encouraging and positive in her attitude, helping me along when I get frustrated - and then rejoicing with me at the finished product! I love going to her classes to get new ideas, learn techniques, and have loads of fun in the process. ~ Christine C.

Jamie has wicked awesome classes! If you don’t like a particular stamp or paper/ink color Jamie wants you to change it to suit your style! I did my sister-in-law’s entire bridal shower from invitations/thank you cards, party favors to decorations, it was quaint and whimsical! Everyone ooh’d and ahh’d! I’ve had lots of special requests for classes and Jamie delivers; she always has tasty treats and flavored coffees too ~Ashley W.

I have been attending Jamie's classes for over a year. Her ideas for cards are fresh and fun. She always tries to have several different styles of cards available, so everyone gets to make cards that fit their personal style. The techniques she shows each class can be used in many different applications. She is very patient teacher when instructing class members on how to use the Stampin Up products. ~ Carol D.

If I looked up the word sparkle in the dictionary, I would find Jamie Albanese picture there. I have had the sweet blessing of knowing Jamie and her family for over 5 years now. Every time I am with her I feel loved and inspired. When I am in one of her classes I feel my creative juices flow, as she encourages me to go outside my comfort zone. Jamie helped our girl scout troop make cards for a soldier who needed some encouragement!!! For any of you who have not been in one of Jamie's classes, please don't let another day slip by. She is a beautiful friend and she will become yours too. ~ Blessings, Karen:-)

Jamie has a great eye for style and flair, and it shows in her work. Yet she can pick up on your own individual style and makes great recommendations. I love that she is always flexible for last-minute decision maker mommies like me! So much fun to host craft events with your friends and family - that personal touch always means so much. ~ Adonna
