4-Card Wonder – free PDF tutorial, template, measurements & video!

July 18, 2023

Before we get to the projects today I want to share the sale Stampin' Up! just announced:

Check over your wish list and see how many stamp sets are on it. Might be a good time to place an order. With the Bonus Days happening you can double dip!

Plus the Trucking Along bundle is back in stock! See it here; get it while you can.

I'm extremely excited & proud to share this project with you. If you know me well, you know I love to create one sheet wonders. I've made quite a few over the last 10 years or so. I'm so lucky that my husband is willing to create the templates for me; I'm not sure I'd love them as much without his help!

I'm calling this project a 4-Card Wonder because it creates 4 cards. I originally made this for a Team meeting project. I wanted it to be quick, create multiple cards and of course be easy and cute!

I shared this project & template on my weekly Live video but did record it and it's now on my YouTube channel as well. Scroll down to see the video.

Here's the template – it's meant for a 1/2 sheet of card stock – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2".

Grab your favorite colors of ink and stamp your own background. Then cut it up using the measurements above! It's so fun to create your own stamped paper. It's a bit addictive!

*Tip – choose stamps that include large & small images. When stamping your paper start with the largest stamps first and finish with the smallest; filling in any empty areas.

I chose the Beautiful Balloons bundle. My colors include Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, Pool Party & Parakeet Party.

I kept the cards quite simple but you could sure jazz them up a bit more. Make the cards like mine or this can be a starting point for your creative process.

You can watch the video on this project here. It's the first project. Or click on the photo down below to watch it below. *Remember to follow me on either my FB page here (Tuesday Live videos) or my YouTube channel here.

Here's the full PDF tutorial for you. Download it here.

I thought I'd share the event we held on December 16th. My local friends and I held a big fundraising Holiday Bazaar to benefit a few local non-profit organizations.

Save

It was held at our church and as you can see it was jam packed with fabulous handmade crafts & goodies. We offered tons of crafts, gifts, handmade cards, baked & home-canned goods, cookie trays & more. Plus we had a silent auction, vendors and lunch!

It was a great success as we raised over $3200 for our charities! It was a fun-filled day and the time & effort was well worth it to support our local non-profits.

NEW Everyday Details card with a unique Designer Paper layout with video tutorial

December 28, 2023
I joined quite a few online card swaps for the new 2024 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs and today's post features one of them.

Save

It features the Everyday Details bundle and the Poetic Expressions designer series paper. Both are in the upcoming 2024 Spring Catalog that goes live on January 4th. The colors include Boho Blue & Misty Moonlight with White.

There's a few special details I'd like to point out:
1. The designer paper triangle is originally a 4" square, cut in half. I added it to a textured layer (4" X 5 1/4")
2. The dotted circle die-cut is from the Everyday Details bundle; there are a variety of sizes in the set. It is adhered over a White stitched circle die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies.
3. I stamped the cup image in Misty Moonlight ink. The flower is colored a soft white by using our Craft White ink and a Wink of Stella pen. I shared how to do this in the video here. You can also use a Blender pen, a water pen or Watercolor Pencils.
Here's a close-up of this technique.

Save

I thought I'd take a photo of all of the swaps before I mailed them out:

I hope you'll try this easy but unique card layout!
