Sunset Blending + Video
Hi readers! Happy THURSDAY! Another week is flying by, and while we’re at it, where did June go? My goodness! We’re back this month with another blended beauty from the fantastic Laura Bassen! Her videos always make me smile!! How did she make this card? You may not have guessed that it was with the newly released (from The Color of Fun collection) Game Tile dies, Press ‘n Seal, and of course beautifully blended Simon inks! The sentiment is from the More Sketchy Banner Greetings stamp set!
Enjoy!

Wow! Such a beautiful card. I Absolutely love this card and watching Laura create it.
Such a great card! No love the new colors from SSS.
Trust Laura to make squares beautiful, instead of just…square. Love the ombre mosaic, and the demo of the press and seal wrap.
Love the ombre inking! Not sure if I would have the patience for this card!!
Love the tutorial video….oh my what a delightful wat to start my day. The rainbow blending is superb. So glad to have a really good use for ‘Press ‘n Seal!
I admire your patience on designing and creating this card with so many little pieces!! it turned out spectacular! Well worth the effort.
What a great idea, looks fabulous while being clean.
Laura, Beautiful card, thanks for sharing and the video. I purchased the game tile die AND stamp set a couple weeks back when it first came out and I couldn’t figure out how I was going to use it yet, so thanks for the idea and hope you don’t mind if I copy you. Thanks.
Another awesome card!
Laura is awesome and this card is awesome! No one blends ink like Laura!
That Laura Bassen, so versatile, so fun, so creative! And a hoot to boot, what more could you ask for while you’re crafting? LOL And I love that she does her “many colors” and “ink blending”, but her cards never feel the same. You know what I mean? Amazing!
OH my another great video and stunning card!
Beautiful card with ink blending. Thanks for the tip on the press and seal.
Gorgeous! I love Laura’s videos – she always makes me smile! Her creativity amazes me – this is beautiful! I don’t think I have any Press n Seal so I’ll have to add it to my list – thank you!
I love this design… I want this die…… I have some Press n Seal , gonna try that too.
Love Laura’s videos. She is so fun. And the card is great. Love the colors.
Love the use of the soft colors
I love Laura’s videos and I absolutely adore this card… really EASY PEASY with the press and seal.
WOW! I absolutely loved the video tutorial! Laura is so adorable. I am now going to give this a try with some of my dies and use the Press N Seal. Thanks for the inspiration, Laura! :D
Beautiful card. I have used Press & Seal in the kitchen for a while but now you’re telling me I need it in my craft room? I guess I’ll be stealing it from the kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
What a great card Laura! You sure come up with some original ideas. Love the ink blending, and your great tips on the press n seal! TFS
Beautiful! You are so much FUN and so creative! Loved this video and what great tips!
Such a lovely card. Very imaginative to see those tiles and think of that!
Love this!!!
Love the colors and the brilliant blending! :) It’s a really cool card!
This is a striking card. I appreciate the video showing us how you accomplished this design. Go Press ‘N Seal.
How pretty and unique! The ombre colors are to die for!
Lovely card, and that blending of colors is absolutely fantastic!
Such a unique card! Love the design and the colors!
What a great idea! I love seeing other uses for supplies.
Such a beautiful card and a neat and fun technique!!! Thank you so much for the wonderful tip about the Press n Seal!!
What a cool background with the squares. A great tip about the Press and Seal.
Love the ombré squares! Love the queen of ink blending ;)
Jennifer’s husband really invented press n seal?? wow, no wonder she can afford to buy a million stamp and die sets and each of her little kids their own misti and go on wonderful island vacations.
I always wondered what her husband did for a living (curious for the same reason).
I thought he was a lawyer or something that is well paying. Now I know. I’ve never used
it very much, but I think Thermo-Heat-Wraps are fabulous!
Great card – thanks for the video :)
This is beautiful! Great blending and thanks for the tip about the Press N Seal!
So love how this turned out and thanks for the press and seal tip in action,
I love this card! Great tips! Thanks!
Fabulous card, Laura. Thanks for such a fun video- you are a hoot. I admire your perseverance putting this card together. Didn’t know about Press ‘n Seal & now I do. You go, girl!
Oh my stars Laura Bassen makes me giggle! She has such an infectious personality. I just love this card. I never thought to use press n seal for crafting (what an awesome idea). I have always used it for other things, I always have a box in my kitchen! Thanks for the great card.
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Lovely card, enjoyed watching the process – thanks for sharing.
How have I missed press’n seal? What a cool trick. Love the graphic look of this card and all the yummy colors.
AWESOME card! I love the blended colors! Thanks for the amazing Press N Seal technique!
That is such lovely blending, and looks so clean and precise
Gorgeous, gorgeous card! Your ink-blending is so awesome, and I love how you used this die!
Beautiful colors and blending
Very beautiful blending. Love all the colors. I will have to practice my blending.
fabulous card! The colors are so striking! TFS!
Ha, ha. Best video I’ve watched all week :) I did not know Jennifer’s husband invented press n’ seal..what a guy. The hospital recommended this to me after I had surgery on my knee so I could take a shower; just wrap up the area with press ‘n seal and shower away. Worked great. Your technique is wonderful using this stuff. Can’t wait to tell my friends. Thanks. Your blending is just great.
