I'm excited to share my free tutorial for the month of June. Not only am I using a brand new set and brand new colors, but these cards are just so darn pretty! The Artistically Inked set is designed to help you unleash your inner artist. The stamps are easy to use and they look fabulous.

Crumb Cake: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

In today's Learn to Stamp video, I show you how to create a Watercolor Wash background:
I've always loved the look of a watercolor wash background, but I never felt entirely successful creating one until I tried this method. This technique uses Shimmery White card stock and the trick, I found, was to make sure that you get the card stock fairly wet before you add the ink. In my video, I didn't quite get it wet enough and it dried somewhat before I could add the color. That said, it still worked, and what is really nice is that you can always go back in and add more color if you aren't happy with it. The one thing I will point out, is that because the paper gets so wet, it tends to curl, so you will want to be extra generous with your adhesive.

Expression in Ink Designer Series Paper: 5/8" x 5 1/8" (5)
Gold and Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper: 1 3/4" x 5 1/2"
Basic White: 1 1/2" x 5 1/2"
Accessories: none
I don't know about you, but I've seen several cards in this style floating around the internet in the last couple of weeks. I just had to give it a try myself. I used 5/8" wide strips of the new Expressions In Ink DSP. Can I just say that that paper is ah-mazing! The colors are so rich and the gold marbling is just gorgeous. The hardest part about this card was trimming my white card stock to fit just right across the card at an angle. I used my Paper Trimmer, and then once I had that layer, I used it to help me cut the gold layer.

The May Paper Pumpkin kit was baseball themed and designed to help you celebrate the special All Stars in your life. For this set of cards, I wanted to see what I could create using just the supplies in the kit. So much fun!

The artistic look is really in right now, and the Artistically Inked stamp set makes it super easy to get an artsy look without a lot of effort. For this card, I simply created an all over background and added a sentiment. But check out those new In Color Jewels. They are simply amazing. The picture truly doesn't do them justice.

Accessories: Potted Succulents Dies; Ornate Floral Folder; Just Jade Light and Dark Blends, Polished Pink Light and Dark Blends, Daffodil Delight Light and Dark Blends, Cinnamon Cider Light and Dark Blends
There are lots of flowers to choose from when it comes to your stamps and they are all a little different. The Simply Succulents set was first released in the January-June catalog, but it has since moved into the annual catalog. The flowers in this set have large spaces, making them super easy to color with the Blends markers. This would be a great set to use if you are just getting started with the Blends.

Accessories: Banners Pick a Punch, Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon, Baby Wipes, 2021-2023 In Color Jewels and Stampin' Dimensionals
In today's Learn to Stamp video, I show you how to do the baby wipe technique:
Today's technique is an oldie, but a goodie! I don't even know how long it's been since I first learned how to do the baby wipe technique. With this technique, you are, in essence, creating your own ink pad. The trick is to make sure that you place the drops of ink close enough together so that there aren't any white spaces. That way you'll get full coverage when you ink your stamp.

I got my May Paper Pumpkin kit early this week, and I immediately sat down to work with it. We are a baseball family, and I really enjoyed seeing the baseball theme play out in these cards. This month's kit was all about celebrating the MVPs in your life. These cards can be customized with several different family members (dad, grandpa, uncle, brother, mom, etc) which makes the kit very versatile.

Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper: 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"
Crushed Curry: 3" x 4 1/4"
Basic White: 3" x 1 3/4"
Accessories: Scalloped Contours Dies, Paper Trimmer, Fine Art Ribbon and Stampin' Dimensionals
In today's Minute to Make It video, I show you how to create this card using the Happy Thoughts set and the Color and contour dies:
You all know how much I love all the different label dies. In this card, I chose to cut out the center of the label. I attached it to the card with dimensionals and then I attached a slightly smaller rectangle with dimensionals as well. This creates a really lovely framed effect which pairs well with our beautiful designer series papers. This is a simple design, but you can get some great looks just by changing out the papers and colors.

There is just something about welcoming a new baby into the world, and this little guy is ready to send some warm greetings for a new arrival. This card is done in neutrals, which is great if the parents have chosen not to find out the gender of their baby. It's a quick and easy card that you can whip up if you've procrastinated too long, or you could make several and keep them ready to go.
