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

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

Save

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  I originally made this for a Team meeting project.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!  

Save

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".  

Save

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. 

Save

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.

• Country Wreath’s Vertical Slider fun fold card; with video tutorial

  December 7, 2022

  ---

  A few weeks ago I shared multiple projects with the Cottage Wreaths bundle on my weekly FB Live.  This Vertical Slider card was one of them.  It's so cool and surprisingly easy.  

  Save

  It's a simple gatefold but the center element holds the card closed so it stays flat.  It's so neat!  I made a second version as well and shared that one here. 

  Save

  I used the Santa Express designer paper here as well as the Joyful Flurry bundle and Brightest Glow stamp set. 

  How it works is to have three squares or circles on the back of the center element.  Fold two in half and adhere to the back of your center layer.  Then top it with the third one.  The two must be positioned so the grab the two front panels of the card and can 'slide' down the center seam.  *watch the video below or here to see how it works.  

  Save

  Click on the photo below to watch the video.  There's another neat fun fold card AND an easy treat box/bag too!

• CUTE Card kit to go with the Storybook Gnomes DSP!! Limited quantities….

  December 5, 2022

  ---

  I was going to feature the Snowflake Vellum for one of my December card kits to go but it's already sold out.  So I switched to the Storybook Gnomes DSP and I love how they turned out!!

  Save

  Even if you aren't a 'gnome' person you'll love these cards.  They're filled with snowflakes, Iridescent ribbon and sparkly gems; two of the five are fun folds and one is interactive!  The Designer paper has many choices; some with pretty 'wintery' backgrounds plus scenes with gnomes. 

  Because the snowflakes & Fine Sparkle gems are discounted I am able to give even more product in this kit!  I aim for $20 in products in my kits PLUS the 10 pre-cut cards for just $28 plus shipping.  

  I have a limited supply of these available so opt in soon!  I will ship these out before Christmas.  

  This kit includes: 

  • the 10 pre-cut cards, die-cut & punched pieces
  • 1/2 pkg. (6" X 12") Storybook Gnomes designer paper
  • a share of Iridescent ribbon, Fine sparkle gems & Wonderful Snowflakes
  • the PDF tutorial which is emailed to you right away

  It does not include stamped greetings or ink.  I used the Kindest Gnomes & Joyful Flurry stamps but you can easily substitute them). 

  You'll also need inks (Pacific Point, Poppy Parade, White Craft & Soft Suede), a paper trimmer and the PDF tutorial.

  Click here to get the pre-cut cards kit with products for $28 plus shipping.  *Add on a second kit & save $$.

  Click here to get the PDF tutorial only.  $15
