Sending Prayers card by Patty Folchert

Sometimes you need to let a friend know that you are praying for them. Even better, say it with a fun hot air balloon shaker card! From the new Jillibean Soup Shaker Card system here is an encouraging card.
Sending Prayers card by Patty Folchert

First I pulled out the small circle card base and stamped in light blue ink the clouds. Then using red ink I stamped the balloon circle, basket and sentiment. The basket was stamped onto pink cardstock and the circle onto some patterned paper for extra color. I cut out the Yellow Salt piece to match the sentiment piece and added to the card as shown. Layering the teal ribbon onto the base as well.


Then I cut out the pieces I had stamped and added to the card as you see it. Next came the shaker shaped circle and I added in red, and gold sequins and attached the back piece. After that I Removed the adhesive strip to add the shaker shape to the card, attaching it to the base. To finish it off I added four gold sequins to the balloon lines.
That does it, a playful card to let someone know that you are praying for them.

Up, Up & Away,
Patty Folchert

When Life Hands You Lemons card by Patty Folchert

When life gives lemons you have two choices: 1) make lemonade or 2) grab the salt & tequila. I chose to make a lemonade card with this new shaker set from Hampton Art and Jillibean Soup.

When Life Hands You Lemons card by Patty Folchert

Beginning with the jar card base I stamped the sentiment in the bottom center in brown ink. Then I grabbed one of the new Jillibean Soup Banner tags and stamped the “make lemonade” in brown ink too. Then in brown ink onto white cardstock I stamped the jar lid and onto the yellow patterned paper I stamped the jar. After that I needed some lemons, they were stamped in brown ink too onto the yellow patterned paper. Then I needed to stamp the straw onto red patterned paper, both paper from Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup. Then I needed some light blue ink to stamp the ice cubes onto white cardstock. Next I cut out all the lemon slices, ice cubes, straw and lid.


Choosing yellow and orange sequins from the sequin pack I added those in with the lemon slices and ice cubes into the shaker jar shape. I cut out the jar backer and adhered the straw, cutting the top off and adding to the front of the card. Then I removed adhesive strip and added shaker shape onto card with a backer.
Last I adhered the jar lid to the top of jar shaker shape with a twine wrapped around it and then added on the kraft banner tag with a 3D Foam dot.
Love how it turned out, so fun! May all your lemons turn into lemonade this winter season.
Loving Life,
Patty Folchert

Wishing You Brighter Days Ahead card by Patty Folchert

This winter weather may have you wishing for brighter days too. Cheer up, the new shaker cards have arrived! Here is a sweet encouragement card in lovely shades of blue. This card is guaranteed to cure the winter blues. 


Wishing You Brighter Days Ahead card by Patty Folchert

The new shaker card system has the card bases with cutouts, the plastic shapes with adhesive, coordinating stamp sets and sequin packs of fun colors. So I began with the cloud card base and traced the cutout onto my blue background paper, Trendy Tomatoes from Cool Cucumber Soup. I cut out the traced shape and then I adhered the mat to the card lining up the cutout.


Next I chose 3 shades of blue sequins to put into the plastic shaker cloud. Then I chose the Blue Print paper as a backer in a lighter shade of blue. Using that same paper I stamped the blue birds in blue ink and fussy cut them out. Using two shades of blue ink I stamped on the rain under the cloud cutout as shown. Then I removed adhesive from the plastic cloud insert and attached to the card adding a backer to the inside cover to keep it all in place.


Then I stamped the sentiment onto Stirred Elements paper in the darker blue ink as shown. After that I cut the sentiment into a banner piece and attached to card base with 3D foam dots. Then I added the blue birds with 3D foam dots as well.
Listen, do you hear the bluebirds singing? May all your winter days be bright and sparkly!
Brighter Days Ahead,
Patty Folchert

Birthday Love card by Patty Folchert

Happy New Year Hampton followers! Today I want to share a Birthday card full of love, stitching and yes- Hampton Stamp and Jillibean Papers.


Birthday Love card by Patty Folchert

The card base is standard size covered with the Sew Pretty patterned paper from the Sew Sweet Sunshine Soup Collection. Next I fussy cut out two rows of hearts to then zigzag stitched them onto the card base as shown. I also cut a border strip for the middle from Yellow Salt and stitched it on as well.



Then using red ink I stamped the “Birthday Love” wood block stamp onto pink cardstock and then trimmed down into rectangle shape. I added the Yellow Salt as a mat and then stitched the border around for added texture.

Last I added the Yellow Chevron ribbon from May Arts and a Cool Beans pink button finished it off nicely. A very simple card created with lots of love.
