Fabulous 1 sheet box for A2 cards with a free project sheet & video too!

March 4, 2024

I shared the coolest box on last week's video. It is made from 1 sheet of designer paper!

It fits six A2 sized cards and envelopes inside. It's the perfect way to gift cards to someone.

I used the Sunny Days Sale-a-Bration paper for the box and the cards too. Of course Sale-a-Bration is now over but hopefully you ordered this beautiful paper. If not you can substitute any other designer paper.

I created a free project sheet for this easy box and the cards too! See it below. There's also a template for it but it will help you to watch the video too. Click here to watch it. Be sure to follow me on YouTube here.

Each of the cards are an easy fun fold layout. I'll share measurements here too but they are included in the project sheet too.

This first one is a fun version of a book-binding card fold. Just add one more piece of card stock and you have a whole new card layout!

Measurements: Petal Pink card 11" X 4 1/4" score at 2 1/8", 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". 2nd piece is 3 1/4" X 4", White inside 2" X 4". DSP – large panel is 3" X 4", left is 1" X 4" & right is 2" X 4"

This next card has the designer paper as the card front; attached to the front flap. Love this and how you can see both sides of our pretty paper!

Measurements: Poppy Parade card 5 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4". DSP – 1 piece at 3/4" X 5 1/2", 1 piece at 4" X 5 1/2". Petal Pink CS is 4" X 1"

This is a great fold that uses the trimmed off card base as the front panel. Love this one!!

See how I decorated my envelopes to match the cards! This really elevates your projects and makes them extra special.

Measurements: Pool Party cards – 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"; cut off one end at 2 3/4". DSP 1 piece at 2" X 4", 2nd piece at 4" X 3"

What do you think of this monochromatic card?

The colors include Very Vanilla with Pecan Pie & Early Espresso. I used quite a few new Annual Catalog products here.

Products used:

- Country Woods designer paper
- So Swirly embossing folder seen here
- Countryside corner dies for my mask (now seen online)
- Unbounded Love stamp set
I added ink inside a die-cut mask with a Blending Brush & Pecan Pie ink before I textured it with the So Swirly embossing folder. I love the effect!

I created this card for my free project tutorial this month – it features the Unbounded Beauty suite. This tutorial is free to everyone who orders from me online.

My colors include Petunia Pop, Basic White and a bit of Summer Splash with the In Color glimmer paper. The pretty designer paper is called Unbounded Beauty and can be seen here.

The greeting stamp & die-cut are both from the same suite – the Unbounded Love bundle seen here.

Measurements:
- card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score/fold at 4 1/4"
- Designer paper – start with a piece measuring 3 1/2" square. Cut from the left at 1/2", 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4"
- White is 4 1/4" X 3" plus a scrap for greeting die-cut
If you're loving this pretty designer paper you might consider opting in for my Unbounded Beauty card kit to go. It includes 10 pre-cut cards, approximately $20 in product and the free tutorial – all for $29 plus shipping. See it here.

Beautiful but quick cards with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More card pack

May 15, 2024

I shared this card on last week's FB live video. It starts out with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More cards and a Basic White Memories & More card base.

Save

I scored the blue card and the front half of the card base in half. Then added a few short pieces of card stock behind the front layers so that layer pops up.

Save

The size of these pieces do not matter at all. Some people use one thicker piece on each side; I used two thin pieces. It allows the top layer to move independently from the front of the card. See how it's done in this video.

Save

You can see these Memories & More cards here. They come in a pack of 28 – half are 3 X 4" and the rest are 4" X 6". They fit our Basic White Memories & More card bases and envelopes perfectly. They're also a great way to create larger than our usual cards – 4 1/4" X 6 1/4" finished size.

I made more beautiful cards with these products, adding a bit of twine to some along with a few printed greetings from the Saying Something Ephemera pack.

Save

You can see the Saying Something Ephemera pack here. It's FULL of tons of greetings you can just add to a card or scrapbook page. I was thrilled when I saw these in the catalog. They're a perfect solution for quick crafting.

Save

Sometimes you want or need to be able to make quick cards; these items are a wonderful way to do that!
