Here is a screen shot of the cut files after I ungrouped the images, selected the ones I wanted and copied and paste several times to fill in the paper.  

Here are instruction on how to fill your page with multiple images on your page in your Cameo:

Move the mouse on top of the image, right click and then click UNGROUP in the drop down menu.  This will create a box around each image.  Then drag and drop all of the images you want to keep to one side.  Click and drag the mouse to create a box over the remaining images.  Right click and then click on CUT in the drop down menu to remove the images.  Drag the mouse over the images you want to use creating a box around them.  Next right click to COPY all images at once and right click again to PASTE.  Do this as many times as you would like.  Then drop and drag images to fill up the paper space.  Once you have this done then you can cut multiple images at one time.

For the background stamps I used CL-02027 Burlap Cling Background Stamp, CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp, CL-04430 Floral Florishes Cling Background Stamp. To stamp all of the background images I used Memento Espresso Truffle ink.

I used an old cut mat from my Silhouette Cameo to place all the cut outs on.  The old mats are perfect for this--just sticky enough to hold the paper in place while stamping and misting.  When I am done I rinse it off and let it air dry.

I am using three different background stamps so I have three groups of cut outs.  Ink the stamp with Espresso Truffle, stamp and  repeat on the other cut outs.

Now the fun part, time to add some color to the leaves.  I used Distress Spray Stains -
Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Rusty Hinge, Fired Brick, Vintage Photo, Peeled Paint.

There is no right or wrong way to do this.  I just randomly sprayed the colors until I liked how the leaves looked. Once all of the color was applied I used a heat tool to dry the paper.

Here is a look at the leaves once they were dry. 

To shape the leaves I used a 6mm round ball stylus and a foam pad.  Run the stylus down the center of the leaf and then out towards the end of the leaf.

Now it's time to put the centerpiece together.  Make sure your glue gun is ready but please be careful--they are really hot!  I used a small grapevine basket, berry sprigs, acorns, hydrangea flowers and the paper leaves.  

Start by adding the filler flower.  

Use hot glue to adhere t to the basket. Next add the hydrangea flowers and acorns.

To finish off the basket add the paper leaves.

I just love how the basket turned out and the leaves are so beautiful!

  

 Add a votive cup and battery votive candle to the center of the basket to finish the centerpiece. Here are a few closes ups of the leaves in the centerpiece.

 

 This project would make a wonderful hostess gift for Thanksgiving.

 

My finished centerpiece measures about 8" x 10" and I purchased the basket, votive, battery operated candle, filler flowers, acorns and hydrangea flowers at my local Joann's. 

Supplies:
JustRite Stamps: CL-02027 Burlap Cling Background Stamp, CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp, CL-04430 Floral Florishes Cling Background Stamp

Tutorial Tuesday Quick and Easy Christmas Cards designed by Heidi Blankenship

Today on Tutorial Tuesday, JustRite Designer Heidi Blankenship shows you how to create quick and easy Christmas Cards.

Just a quick reminder that we have a Christmas Sale in progress.


 
Plus we are also giving away one of today's Tutorial Tuesday - SVGS - SVG Applique Christmas Labels One Cut File Digital Download. Simply use this coupon code at checkout SNOWMAN (all caps no spaces).  To receive your FREE DOWNLOAD.



Before we get started with the Tutorial, we need to announce the winner of last week's Tutorial Tuesday Giveaway. Congratulations to Sue S. who has just won a $30.00 gift card to the JustRite Website. 

Sue S said... I bought 4 last month,so I don't want to count them!

Sue S please email me at [email protected] with your email information so that I can send you your gift card.  Please use Tutorial Tuesday Winner as the subject of your email.

 If you are reading this from a feedburner email you can see Heidi's Video here.

  

For the first card I am using CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp and CR-02026 Appliqué Christmas Labels One Clear Stamps. To create the gingerbread  and apron cut outs I used my Silhouette Cameo and SVG-02026 SVG Appliqué Christmas Labels One Cut File Digital Download for CR-02026 Cut File.  I am using the offset cut file.

 

I am using Rich Cocoa ink to stamp the image of the gingerbread boy and girl. Next I used Rhubarb Stalk ink to stamp the little hearts on one of the gingerbread cut outs.  I am using the same Rich Cocoa ink to stamp the image of the apron on to the cut out.  I used Spectrum Noir™ Marker DR6 to color on the apron. 

I inked the edges of the gingerbread cut outs with Vintage Photo Distress ink to add some color and interest.  This is a step you could skip if you would like.  To soften the white of the apron I inked the edges with Antique Linen Distress ink. 



To color the cheeks on the gingerbread cut outs I used Rhubarb Stalk ink and a Q-tip to apply the ink.  Q-tips work great for applying ink in small places.  For the ric rac trim or frosting on the gingerbread cut outs I used a white (PC938) Prismacolor Colored Pencil.

To create the background I used CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp with Rich Cocoa ink.  Next I stamped the sentiment using Rhubarb Stalk ink.  I used Vintage Photo Distress ink to ink the edges of the paper.  Doing this softens up the white paper and added depth.  If you don't like inked edges, this is another step that you could skip. 

For the second card I am using, CR-02144 Bokeh Time Clear Stamps, CR-02133 Extra Grand Holiday Sentiments Clear Stamps, and CL-02067 Retro Sparkle Cling Background Stamp. I inked up the background stamp using Shaded Lilac and stamped the image on to a piece of white cardstock.  Next I used Picked Raspberry Distress ink to stamp the star burst accents from the CR-02144 Bokeh Time Clear Stamps.

 

 To finish the background piece I stamped one of the sentiments from the CR-02133 Extra Grand Holiday Sentiments Clear Stamps using Picked Raspberry Distress ink.

 

To create the snowflake cut outs I used my Silhouette Cameo and SVG-02026 SVG Appliqué Christmas Labels One Cut File Digital Download for CR-02026.  I used the offset cut file. I used Tumbled Glass Distress ink to stamp the image of the snowflake.  Then I inked around the edges of each snowflake cut out. 

For the card base I am using Snow Cone cardstock and I inked around the edges with Tumbled Glass Distress ink.  Here is a look at the finished card.  I added a few sequins and 3D foam squares to the snowflakes. 

 For the third and finally card I used CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp and CR-02024 Christmas Stitched with Love Clear Stamps.

 

To create the little sprigs with berries cut outs I used my Silhouette Cameo and SVG-02024 SVG Christmas Stitched with Love Vintage Labels Seven Digital Cut File Download for CR-02024.  I used the exact cut file.

 

I used Rich Cocoa ink to stamp the image on to the cut out.  When I am using the exact cut files I have my stamp facing up, add ink and then place the cut out on top of the stamp.  Gently run over the top to get a nice coverage of ink.  To color the leafy sprig and berries I used Spectrum Noir™ Markers DG2, DG3, DR6.  Start coloring with the DG2 marker.  To color the berries (buttons) I used the DR6 marker.  To add a little bit of shading on the leafy I used the DG3 markers and then blended with the DG2 marker. 

Here are all three cards....

Supplie List: 
Stamps:  CR-02026 Appliqué Christmas Labels One Clear Stamps, CR-02024 Christmas Stitched with Love Clear Stamps, CR-02133 Extra Grand Holiday Sentiments Clear Stamps, CR-02144 Bokeh Time Clear Stamps,  CL-02127 Crackle Cling Background Stamp, CL-02067 Retro Sparkle Cling Background Stamp

 Here is a look at the first card I am creating in my video using Gold Embossing Powder, Twinkling H2o's and watercolor paper.

Using the CR-03870 Shabby Chic Autumn Leaves Clear Stamps stamp the images with VersaMark ink, add gold embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool. 

To activate the Twinkling H2O's add water and let them sit for a few minutes.  Stir the paint to make sure you get a good even coat of the shimmer on your brush. Paint the leaves with Twinking H2O's.  For my card I used the vibrant colors for the leave and then add softer colors for the background.  All of the colors I used are in the supply list.


Since I wanted to have very vibrant colors on leaves I did not wet the paper before I started. You will be able to see on the finished card that the embossed areas resist the watercolor. Next I used my heat tool to dry the paint. 

For the background start by misting the paper with water.  Then use the brush to pull out a little bit of color from the image. 

Make sure there is water around the outer edge of the image and then start to pull the color--doing this will help the paint to flow.  Be sure to rinse the brush between colors.
Keep adding water to blend the colors. Now I am starting to added a little more color to the background using Golden Opal.  Here I am adding a second layer of the Golden Opal.  I wanted to darken up the background just a little bit more so I added some Cedar Wood.  Something to keep in mind when you are doing watercolor--most of the time the paint will dry a little bit lighter shade.

When I was done watercoloring the background I used a heat tool to dry the paint.

To watch the video for my Bokeh Technique and my second card go timestamp 10:05 on the video. As I was shooting the video it occurred to me that I might not be pronouncing Bokeh correctly.  And I was right.  You can hear the correct 
pronounciation here.  The term comes from the Japanese word “boke” (暈け/ボケ), which translates to “blurr”, “haze”, or “fuzziness”.

It's a super fun technique and I hope that my video and written tutorial will inspire you to give it a try.  Here is a look at my Thanksgiving Card. For the second technique I am using Distress Inks to create a watercolor background.  

 Mist the paper with water and then start with the lightest color.

I am just randomly adding colors.  There is no right or wrong way to do this.  Just be careful not to over blend and end up with muddy colors.

These are the colors of Distress Inks that I used for the first watercolor layer on my card.

Next I used the heat tool to dry the paint. Now it's time to start stenciling and create the Bokeh look on the paper.



I used three colors of Distress Ink--starting with the lightest color, sponges, and a stencil. Start with the largest circle on the stencil and then the medium and the smallest.  The stencil I am using has several circles so I used blue painters tape to cover the other circles. The yellow is a little hard to see in the video but it does show up and yo can see it as you are stenciling.Repeat the same steps using a different color--Spiced Marmalade. You can see the background with the Bokeh look starting to appear. 

For the third color I am using Vintage Photo Distress ink.  Repeat the same steps with stenciling.

 

 

If you wanted to you could stop here with the technique.  But if you want to soften the colors just a bit and give the background kind of a dreamy look you will want to continue. Using the same stencil and Donna Salazar Mix'd Media Inx-Jasmine stencil the circles on the background.As more ink is applied the background colors with start to soften.

The Mix'd Media Inx take a little longer to dry which is good for this technique.  I used a cotton ball to rub over the entire areas and blend the colors a little more. 

Next I used SVG-03870 Shabby Chic Autumn Leaves Digital Cut Files Download for CR-03870 with my Cameo to cut the leaf shapes.  Then I used Distress Inks to watercolor the leaves. Mist the leaves with water and then start adding in the color.

Mist the leaves with water and then start adding in the color. Now it's time to stamp on the leaves.  I used coordinating stamp set CR-03870 Shabby Chic Autumn Leaves Clear Stamps and Espresso Truffle ink to stamp the images.

Tip: When I am stamping on Exact Cuts I find it easier to ink the stamp and place it face up in an acrylic block. Then line up to paper with the stamp. Ink the edges of the leaves with the Espresso Truffle ink.

Ink the edges of the Bokeh style paper with the Espresso Truffle. I used Espresso Truffle ink for the sentiment and the Antique Linen to ink the edges.

Here is another picture of my Thanksgiving Card with the Bokeh Technique.

Heidi finished her card by then stamping the Have a Merry Christmas Sentiment onto the white cut file with our Extra Grand Holiday Sentiments Clear Stamps.

Welcome to Tutorial Tuesday, today JustRite Papercraft Designer Heidi Blankenship is going to share with you a tutorial on how to use Amy Tedder's newest digital cut file SVG Elegant Stationery Elements with design elements from our Elegant Fan Elements Clear Stamp Set.

But before we get started we need to announce last week's Tutorial Tuesday Winner.....

Congratulations to Jan Garber you have won a $30.00 Gift Card to the JustRite Webstore. Scroll to the bottom of the post for your chance to win this week's Tutorial
Tuesday Giveaway.

Great video!  Love the colors and embossing. I am currently sending out about 25 birthday cards a year, and many more than that for the holidays. I think my last list was up to nearly 100!

Please email me at [email protected] with your email information so that I can send you your gift card. Please use Tutorial Tuesday Winner as the subject of your email.

You can now purchase electronic gift cards for your friends and family from our website in a variety of denominations.  

 
If you are reading this from a feedburner  you can find Heidi's video here. 

 

Here are all the pieces I cut using the Silhouette Cameo and SVG files for the Elegant Stationery Elements.  The largest piece is the envelope and requires a 12 x 12 piece of paper to cut the file and needs to be a lighter weight cardstock.  The envelope has score lines on each side.  

The notecard also has score lines for folding and a decorative edge.

The SVG file also comes with a border element. You can use the border element o layer on the outside or inside edge of your card.  The last piece is an accent piece that you can layer on top of the card or on the envelope.  I created two stationery sets by cutting the pieces twice-once with solid colored cardstock and then with coordinating pattern paper.

The SVG file coordinates with Elegant Fan Elements Clear Stamp Set.

Here is the notecard that I designed for today's video.

To start fold the card base on the score line.  Run a bone folder along the edge to get a nice crisp fold. 

Next match up the border piece along the bottom.  Add adhesive and then trim off excess.

Use VersaMark ink to stamp the border along the bottom of the card.  The stamps coordinate and line up perfectly with the cut pieces.

Then add white embossing powder and heat set.

For the accent piece I used VersaMark ink to stamp the flourish and then white embossing powder and heat set. Add adhesive to the accent piece and attach it to the card front. Line up the center or the accent piece with the center of the stamped border image.

To adhere the lace trim and bows I used Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue.  Set the piece aside for a couple minutes to dry a little and become tacky. Once the adhesive on the lace has become a little tacky then add it to the top of the card front and added the bows too.   Trim off excess lace and the ribbon ends on the bows.

To finish off the card and envelope I added some flowers, sequins and pearls.

 

Here is a picture of the envelope I created with the Envelope SVG.

 Here is what the envelope cut file looks like.....

Using VersaMark ink stamp the flourish on all four corners of the envelope add white embossing powder and heat set.

Fold the envelope flaps on the score lines on all four sides.  Use a bone folder for a nice crisp edge.

To finish off the envelope I added some flowers, sequins and pearls.  For the envelope I created a ribbon belly band that can be removed to open and close the card--just simply slide it off.
