Fast & Fabulous Friday Sneak Peek #4 and Graceful Glass Kit Offer

Woo Hoo - It's Fast & Fabulous Friday Time!!
That means the last installment of my Graceful Glass Card Kit offer - you really *WANT* to pre-order this kit my friends!  Take a look at what I have for you today...

 
I kept these cards simple because honestly, I promised you could create them fairly quickly.  So here goes...

Card #1 uses a panel of the Graceful Glass Designer vellum (there are so many GORGEOUS patterns in this vellum), that is coloured very quickly with markers.

The butterfly from the Painted Glass set was stamped, coloured and cut out using the butterfly thinlit from the Stained Glass thinlits.  And the sentiment was stamped, then mounted.  Pretty easy, huh?

Add a few pearls because after all...why not?  Voila!  Gorgeous.  But easy too!

Card # 2 is also deceptively quick to put together, once you have all the pieces cut out.   

Adhere the piece of Graceful Glass Designer Vellum inside the Stained Glass "window", and colour the dots where the pattern meets.  Also colour in various sections of the Stained Glass diecuts.  You can choose to colour as many or as few of them as you like. And using as many colours as you like.  Your choice.  

It doesn't get much easier, huh?
Stamp the sentiment from the Painted Glass set on a vellum banner, and adhere all the pieces to a white mat embossed with the Petal Burst embossing folder.

Easy peasy and gorgeous!

Want to create these cards...and more?   Check out the details about the very special deal I am offering:

Every Friday in May I presented TWO new Fast & Fabulous cards highlighting the GORGEOUS Graceful Glass suite from the upcoming Annual Catalogue that goes live NEXT WEEK on June 1. The first week I focused on the Painted Glass stamp set (see those cards HERE). Week 2 I highlighted the Stained Glass thinlits (see those cards HERE).  Last week I showcased only the beautiful vellum (see them HERE). Today I show you some very simple cards you can create when you use them all together.

Fast & Fabulous Friday Sneak Peek #2 and Graceful Glass Kit Offer

Howdy Friends!

It's time for another Fast and Fabulous Friday and a reminder about the extra-special offer that I introduced last week!  If you didn't get a chance to sign up yet, don't worry, you still have that opportunity.  But first, today's Fast and Fabulous Friday cards! 

Today's Fast & Fabulous cards are truly that.  Fast. And FAB-U-LOUS!  (don't forget to read further to find out about the special deal!)

And for today it's all about the Stained Glass thinlit dies.

Check these out.  No stamping.  Just cardstock and embellishments to create these beauties.

For the first card I adhered the diecut pieces and added a Tinted Faceted button and some black twine.  The embossed background mat adds that extra level of eye-appeal but really, this is just a super-fast, super lovely card.

Card #2 is even simpler - no embossing and no twine!   Just the addition of one of the new In Colors (Call Me Clover) to add some pizzazz!

Full disclosure - one of the reasons these cards are so fast and easy to create is that I used our adhesive sheets when I diecut the Stained Glass thinlit pieces.  

No fuss or muss in trying to get some sort of 'glue' onto the thin lines of the diecuts.  No sir.  Just peel the backing off the diecut and adhere that gorgeous piece directly to the card.  Makes putting the card together super easy peasy.

I'll say it again....
Fast.  And.  Fabulous!

Now for details about the very special deal I am offering.   Every Friday during the month of May I present TWO new Fast & Fabulous cards highlighting the GORGEOUS Graceful Glass suite from the upcoming Annual Catalogue that goes live on June 1. Last week I focused on using only the Painted Glass stamp sets (see those cards HERE). Today I focus on diecuts using the Stained Glass thinlits.  Come back next Friday where I'll showcase the beautiful vellum. And week 4 I'll show you what you can achieve when you use them all together.

Fast & Fabulous Friday Sneak Peek #1 and Graceful Glass Kit Offer

Hello My Friends!

It's Fast and Fabulous Friday time and I have an extra-special offer that you won't want to miss!

First though - let's take a look at the gorgeous Fast & Fabulous installments for today (don't forget to read further to find out about the special deal!)

First up is this super-fast, super gorgeous card that makes me realize how happy I am that Blackberry Bliss is returning!

Quite simply, does it get any easier?  Just some versamark and white embossing powder and the beautiful rose image from the Painted Glass stamp set (available June 1 in the upcoming Stampin' Up! catalogue) and there you have it.  Fast. Fabulous. And Fun!

Or try my other, equally fabulous card: versamark ink, white embossing powder, and the butterfly image from the totally gorgeous Painted Glass stamp set.  You can create this beauty in the blink of an eye. Isn't the elegant font of the sentiment just perfect for this card?

Since I stamped on paler Pool Party cardstock for this second card, I decided to make, the embossed images pop by sponging lightly with Pool Party ink. Add a few well-placed pearls and Ta da!  A very quick and utterly gorgeous card. 
Fast.  And.  Fabulous!

Now for the very special deal I mentioned above.

Every Friday during the month of May I will present TWO new Fast & Fabulous cards. And each Friday I'll highlight something different from the Graceful Glass product suite (Painted Glass stamp set, Stained Glass thinlits, Graceful Glass Designer Vellum) available in the new Annual Catalogue that goes live on June 1). Today I focused on stamped images!  Butterflies, roses and sentiments.  It doesn't get any easier, right?  Come back next Friday where I'll showcase the thinlits. Week 3 will highlight the designer vellum, and week 4 will show you what you can achieve when you use them all together. 

You are going to want this product suite. 
You are going to want to recreate the cards I show you.
