WRBF-3878-2013
Greetings blog friends!  I’m back with another tone on tone card and I’m sorry to do this, but I have an additional disclaimer to share about a technique that I tried yesterday. I sent my cut die still in the die back through the Grand Calibur to emboss and I don’t recommend you doing it.  It leaves a faint line on the embossing folder and can mar the surface potentially showing on your paper on future embosses.  It was just me experimenting and many have asked me how I preserved the edge, but now you’ve been cautioned and know it can mar your folder.  Edited to add:  my sweet friend Sue Wilson emailed me  Whew . . .  now with that behind me on to my card for today – a square, embossed card.

WRBF-3877-2013
My Get Well card was created using Spellbinders Grand Squares and embellished with sentiments from JustRite Papercrafts – Chicken Soup Labels Four.  I embossed with Spellbinders Dainty Dots and created my card base using the technique I’ve shown you for Spellbinders Hinged Card Bases.  If you’re interested in the same technique for Creating Plain Card Bases, I originally did this technique back in February 2011 and you can see my older video —>HERE.  On top of this card base I added Spellbinders Adorning Squares, topped it with Spellbinders Blossom Tags and Accents, added Spellbinders Venetian Motifs and on the inside used Get Well Labels Twenty , embellishing with Spellbinders  Venetian Accents.

WRBF-3876-2013
So to recap the layers from the bottom up, die cut layer of Grand Squares 5″ x 5″, foam tape, die cut layer ofAdorning Squares, foam tape, die cut layer of Blossom Tags, foam tape die cut layer of Venetian Motifs.  

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: JustRite Papercrafts – Chicken Soup Labels Four (Outside), Get Well Labels Twenty (Inside)
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Smooth Natural White 80lb,
Ink:  Amuse – Heather
Accessories:Spellbinders Grand Squares, Spellbinders Dainty Dots, Spellbinders Adorning Squares, Spellbinders Blossom Tags and Accents,  Spellbinders Venetian Motifs, Get Well Labels Twenty, Spellbinders  Venetian Accents, Ribbon flowers, May Arts Silk Ribbon, Recollections Pearls, Want2Scrap Pearls, Maya Roads Trinket Pin, Becca’s Bow Maker

Hugs friends, I’m tickled to be a part of your online journey.  Everyday is finding me so inspired and I hope you are too!

    Oooh – more of this elegant creamy look! I just love it!!
    Say Becca, there is a way to do the embossing and maintain the margin on the die without ruining your embossing folder. You keep the folder open and use your rubber mat. I have to run off to work right now, but I’ll send you a link to that tutorial (it’s pinned on my Tutorial Paper board) when I get a chance later today.
    Thanks again for the inspiration of this beautiful card!!ReplyCancel

  • ann robbinsJune 22, 2013 - 10:31 am

    Love the tone on tone, Becca. Love the tutorials and EVERYTHING you do, girl!! An inspiration to all of us wanna-be card “Becca style” cardmakers.

    Totally gorgeous, Becca! Love this! Thanks very much for all your tips and tutorials – I know they must take a lot of time for you to do and it is much appreciated! BTW, you have a very soothing voice!ReplyCancel

    Beautiful card. ThanksReplyCancel

  • RitaJune 22, 2013 - 11:26 am

    What a stunning card Becca. Really beautiful. Maybe Chelsea would share how to keep that edge with me too. Hugs Rita xxxReplyCancel

  • Lynn G.June 22, 2013 - 11:56 am

    Wow…..so elegant….I just love that green in with the purple flowers and ribbon. And that Spellbinders Venetian die…another wow….just love it. The purple sentiment was a great idea for color also.

    I would be interested in seeing the tutorial from Chelsea who wrote the first comment. I love this process and would really like to see how you don’t leave the marks on the folders.

    Thank you so much for sharing! I truly love it when I see and e-mail from you in my in-box.ReplyCancel

  • Debbie BJune 22, 2013 - 12:25 pm

    This is definitely “my kind of card.” I love the colors and the daintiness. You are a great salesperson … every time I see one of your cards I feel like I “need” to go out and buy those same Spellbinder dies. Beautiful card Becca!ReplyCancel

  • MelanieJune 22, 2013 - 2:33 pm

    Beautiful card becca ,I do this a lot I love the crisp edge on the card when its been embossed my sandwich is grey plate and put a couple of card stock this has to be the same thickness as the open side of your folder.under the folder first then folder open then die to be embossed then rubber mat ,then last pink plate , Im now working on finding the correct sandwiches for the ebosser which I have fallen in love with this machine but will not get rid of my GC as need it when you do half cut in the dies Ebosser can`t do this .Melanie ukReplyCancel

  • Cindy PotentierJune 22, 2013 - 9:42 pm

    absolutely stunning……..love it!!! Also would love to receive this card, along with almost every card you’ve show cased here, lol!! OMG I laughed when I read Karen’s reply about being willing to get sick to receive it, lmbo, that’s a good one love it!!
    I was wondering about that when I saw that you embossed with the cut still in the die but figured I’d try it one day, if you do it it must be ok, lol ty for letting us know before I tried it, I’d be sick if one of my embossing folders got mared, my solution….by two….. LOL jk, a few ladies had a better idea, lol, much cheaper!!
    I tried your perfectly inked edges yesterday on an embellishment I was making for a onesie album, my first try was a bit messy and couldn’t be salvaged but I did better the second time, then realized I chose the wrong shade of blue and had to do it again, ohhhhhh geeeee darn (lmbo) practice makes perfect they say and I certainly won’t complain about practiceing :) lol ty so much for sharing “everything” with us Becca, you rock!!ReplyCancel

  • Clare WJune 23, 2013 - 12:23 am

    What a classy classic looking card – love it. I have embossed a die cut in the die but you must keep the embossing folder OPEN and put the die cut (which remains in the die) with the flat edge, not the ridged cutting edge, against the folder.ReplyCancel

  • Sue MJune 23, 2013 - 12:57 am

    Your white on white cards are so classy, I just love them. They make me think of lace. You really are to me the only card maker! Your stuff is just so classy and stunning everything else pales. I would love to become a Becca card maker but I am a long way from your confections! I too would love any further tips on the best way to emboss with the die cut. I get so excited every time I see I have an email from you. I can’t get enough of your talent!ReplyCancel

    Your card and the colors are so very pretty. I love the lilac and green combination.

    Since the arrival of beautiful summer weather I try to spend much of my time outdoors in my garden so creating something like this, that is fairly quick to put together is appreciated. Thank you for sharing!

  • Robin in WAJune 23, 2013 - 10:47 am

    Beautiful card Becca! I’ve always wondered how you were able to keep your edges with dry embossing. Now I know–disclaimer and all. So, does it only mar the spellbinders m-bossabilities or do you do this technique with other folders without the marring effect?ReplyCancel

Thanks so much for all your inspiration. I don’t always get time to leave a comment but I always look at your gorgeous creations. Blessings, LindaReplyCancel

WRCTH-Title
So I’m starting a series of the tools in my stash that are heroes – in other words, in my eyes they save the day :-)  I’ve wanted to share this kind of information for a while because we all take it for granted that everyone has been around the craft block for a while and they know everything we know.  I get emails of all kinds from beginners through advanced crafters who want to talk about technique and tools.  I’m a bit of a tool junkie and I normally try several flavors of a tool before I know which one is good for me.   All that to say, for some of you this video will be old hat, for some of you it will take the mystery out of something you’ve never tried.   In my videos I’m trying to cover everyone and ask you to forgive me if it seems like I’m talking about something that is obvious.  I’m trying to head off questions before they happen and I want to be sure to talk on the level of every crafter :-)

Here is the video:

When video taping, sometimes I can’t see what I’m doing or I’d have to put my big head in the way.  After all the prep, lining up, telling how this always works – a dud. If you enjoy outtakes and wonder if things always go my way… this is only 11 seconds and struck me as ironically funny . . . I had to share.
http://youtu.be/IJtYWCK5cm4

Lastly, many of you wanted to see exactly how I put a card together.  We’ll I filmed this one since the camera was out.  It’s sped up many times over so that the yawning doesn’t overcome you.  I’ve had many requests for this so hopefully you’ll see something in my workflow that works for you. Where I thought there might be questions, I try to volunteer the info and let you know what I’ve used.

Whoa, it’s been a video-tastic day!  I’m working on more things for my lovely readers – you!  Stay tuned!

    Becca. I have one of those stamp alignment tools but always forget to use it. Thanks for reminding me how much easier it is to line things up with it. I’ll have to dig it out and use it. I enjoyed watching you make the card too.

    Becca my dear,
    I have finally made to be first on your blog. I really enjoyed seeing how your perfect stamping is created. A lot of time what I do is stamp first and then use my die to cut it out. I was. Happy to see just how you do it. Every tip you give is much appreciated.

  • Sandra SmithJune 16, 2013 - 8:52 pm

    I appreciate all of these videos. I have always thought I didn’t really need the stamp alignment tool but I now see how much I need one and will be buying one next time I shop. I do not know how I managed without it.

    I really appreciate your video showing how you assemble your cards. I never thought of putting adhesive only in the corners until I get everything lined up. I have bern crafting for years and sometimes layers go on perfectly and other times I have to pull them off and hope I don’t ruin my layer. This is a simple thing but something I just never thought about doing it. This video just made crafting easier for me.

    Your outake video gives a glimpse of the effort you put into your videos.

    I am looking forward to learning more from you. I would love to see you make various bows using your bow maker.

    Thank you Becca!ReplyCancel

    What a perfect way to end a lovely Sunday, by watching some Becca videos. Thanks for taking time to do these. I loved both of them, interesting to see how you placed your clear stamp to the side before alignment. Good idea. And I especially loved watching you assemble the card. Fascinating, and I’ll be watching each video you’re able to share with us. I don’t always have time to leave a comment, but I get an email notice when you post, so I ALWAYS check in to see what gorgeous-ness you have created that day. Hugs & hope your day was pleasant.

  • Becca FeekenJune 16, 2013 - 11:00 pm

    Hi Heather B (Comment #3)

    I get my Scotch 3M tape from Office Depot, but only when they have a coupon. The roll is 38 yards and is normally about $36.00. The last time I had a 30% off coupon I picked up a roll. Can also be purchased from Uline. Either way, full price is much more economical than buying one small roll at a time.

    I get my pearls from Hobby Lobby in the scrapbooking department when they are 50% off and sometimes you can get them at Michaels on the bling aisle.ReplyCancel

  • Becca FeekenJune 16, 2013 - 11:01 pm

    Hi Amelia E (Comment #19)

    I used the clear earring back on the sharp pin that I put in the flower. I’m always afraid that someone will poke themselves. It’s tiny and so it’s very hard to see on the video. I buy them by the pack at Michael’s in the jewelry department. One pack will last forever :-)ReplyCancel

All of the extras touches you add are fabulous, how in the world are you able to see so many possibilities with the dies and components? Wow! Also, you gave some great ideas for using the stampamajig ~ using wax paper is something I have never tried with mine and I definitely will give it a try.

    Becca, this is exactly what I needed right now. We are awaiting June 27 when my hubby will have very serious surgery to remove a tumor deep in the roof of his mouth. I have not been able to concentrate for long since we learned of this ahead of us, and yoru videos, of tools I have but may not use as well as I could fit the bill tonight to keep my attention for a short while. Thanks so much, for the lovely stamped messages I see on your cards every time I get a notice from you. You uplift me daily.

    Thank you for sharing. I love your style, and will take a moment longer to get it right from now on. I have never used a stamp aligner but can see how useful it will be to invest in one. Great to see how easy it can be to utilise pieces of different die cuts so effectively. Looking forward to the next video.ReplyCancel

  • Clare WJune 17, 2013 - 2:02 am

    Fabulous videos – thank you sooo much. Love the piano music during the one in which you assemble a card. A stamp alignment tool looks a good idea. I have trouble constructing things straight (such as matts) and perfect so I’ll try your sticking technique as it looks fool proof to me. I always look at a finished card I make thinking ‘that’s not straight’ – or ‘its not quite central’ etc.. – I know others dont see my errors as I do but if I could only get some of these basics spot on I think it would make all the difference to the end result. Either that or I have wonky eyes! Practice makes perfect I suppose but I want it perfect every time – your tips will be very helpful I think. Thank you.ReplyCancel

  • Dottie DavisJune 17, 2013 - 5:05 am

    After messing up a lot of card stock with “wishful” alignment, I, too, use an acrylic block and corner aligner. It is the only way to go to get perfect alignment instead of the crooked ones we sigh over and send anyway (because we have used nice paper). I like the video as it showed an alternative way of glueing down the card layers. I never thought of doing one end at a time. I also don’t know where to find the foam tape in bulk. The little sheets they sell with a few in a pack are expensive. Thank you so much for doing the videos for us, they were great! And the card is so beautiful to boot!ReplyCancel

  • Joanna MackintoshJune 17, 2013 - 6:40 am

    Thanks for that wonderful video Becca, I found lots of hints and tips I can use to aid my card making.

    One question though – what were the earring backs used for please?ReplyCancel

  • Joanna MackintoshJune 17, 2013 - 6:52 am

    I should have read all the other comments first! I see you’ve already mentioned what you use the earring backs for ;)

    I just watched your alignment video too – I use my ‘stamp positioner’ all the time and in fact just demonstrated it last month at my stamp club, I’m amazed at the people who didn’t know about it!

    The wax paper idea is good but unfortunately the cost is rather prohibitive over here in the UK – you *can* buy it but it’s imported from the US and therefore becomes expensively precious. Luckily, I have a son living in Ca who brought me a couple of boxes last Christmas when he visited :)ReplyCancel

I can’t tell you how many times I have wished I knew all these little tips that make cardmaking so much easier. I don’t really have the money in our budget to go to crafting classes so I end up doing most everything the hard way.

Sooo I will get it one of these days…I’ve never seen one by any other company, maybe I should google that, thanks for the info.

  • Mary NiebJune 17, 2013 - 10:42 am

    Thanks for the videos. I also use my stampamajig often and learned the hard way after stamping sentiments or images off kilter. After all the years I have been making cards I love how you align the different layers then flip them upside down and secure one end at a time-BRILLANT. I get my layers aligned then pick up the top layer to apply the adhesive and never get it aligned properly again. Your method will save me alot of aggravation.ReplyCancel

  • Anne(UK)June 17, 2013 - 10:42 am

    What a treat you had in store for us today! Not one, but two amazing videos and a great bonus ‘out-take’! Loved them, especially the last one where we get to see you creating a masterpiece.
    As I’m in the UK and couldn’t source one, I made a stamp alignment tool out of Lego and another from Duplo several years ago – necessity being the mother of invention and all that! I haven’t tried making the master image on wax paper though. Thanks for the heads up on that. I shall be butchering my rather long roll and stamping several favourite images which I’ll then organise (i.e. throw in a box!) for future use.
    Looking forward to more craft heroes and heroines.

  • Pat JandacekJune 17, 2013 - 11:56 am

    Thanks for your videos, Becca. I continue to use the supplied acrylic piece with my stamp-a-ma-jig ’cause I apparently have GREAT difficulty cutting anything square plus I feel more secure with an inflexible piece for placement in the corner of the jig. I do sometimes wonder if the thickness of the acrylic may decrease accuracy of placement, a deflection or shadow of sorts…? Fabulous idea of fastening your layers first with light tape in the corners. That’s an eye-opener that’s going to be put into practice immediately, it will give me an opportunity to also square a wonky cut! I don’t often comment but wouldn’t miss your fantastic work…you have a brilliant and beautiful mind and a sharing heart – all so very much appreciated.ReplyCancel

  • MaryannJune 17, 2013 - 1:15 pm

    Thanks soooo very much for sharing these videos Becca. I truely enjoyed to watch them, and especially how you put the card together. I have a question for that one. You said you used the earring stoppers for your pins, which I´ve also thought of, but I´ve never been able to find them anywhere here, except from at the juweler, and there they´re soo expensive, that it´s completely out of the question, but I could see in the video, that you had a whole box of them, where have you found them?? I would really apreciate to know, where you get these from, as I have been looking everywhere here, with no luck, and I would really love to be able to use pins a lot more, but you´re always a bit afraid, that people will prick themself on the needle if you don´t cover the tip somehow, so please????

    Love the videos, dear girl!! I’ll have to check at my Michael’s for the earring backs again. Every store seems to be a little different… I should know; I stop at every one I see as I’m driving along. Does he word “obsessed” ring a bell? Anyway, I also do miniatures (doll houses, room boxes, etc. in 1″ scale) and there are many pricey tools for squaring things up. I saw a YouTube where the lady used legos and I happened to have a few left from the grandkids visits. So that is what I use for my minis. I am going to try them out on my cards and see if they do the trick. Again, thanks for the videos, I need all the help I can get!! And your card is delightful and fresh!ReplyCancel

To me it is a “high” moment when I see the “Feedblitz” in my email and am always anxious to see what you are up to. I LOVE tutorials! I have a stamp a ma jig and have never used it! Now I can’t wait for the oppertunity! I also loved seeing you put a card together. Wish we could really work that fast and had someone else to do all the cutting out!
    Anyway, I recognized all of the things you used for the card except for the extra piece you added at the top of the oval and the feathery piece you put on both sides of the roses. I looked at the bottom of the tutorial to see if you listed as you ususally do the things you used but didn’t see any of that information.
