A beautiful Texture Chic card class in the mail, with PDF option too!


I did a poll in my Facebook group to decide which designer paper to feature in my July card kit to go.  Texture Chic was a top favorite and looking at the finished cards I can see why! 

The cards came together wonderfully and include a few fun folds that I know people enjoy making & giving.  I used the Peaceful Moments stamp set along with these inks: Soft Succulent, Blushing Bride, Pool Party & Soft Suede.

When designing my card kits I like to use mostly greetings that most people can easily substitute.  Usually the designer paper, layouts, fun folds &/or accessories are the star of the cards.  

The Texture Chic specialty DSP is filled with gold accents and gorgeous printed textures. Click here to see it. 

If you want to make these cards you have a few choices:

  1. Get the PDF tutorial only here.  $15
  2. Or choose the pre-cut card kit here. $28 plus shipping

Here's how it works:

The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free.  It's the best deal. 

You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Texture Chic specialty DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed dots and 3/8" shimmer Gold ribbon.  You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards!  The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces.  It does not include textured embossing. 

The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions.  See both here on my shop as well as a few other kits I have available. 

What you need to complete these cards:

  1. a paper trimmer, adhesives & paper snips
  2. Inks and stamp greetings
  3. Die-cut & embossing machine to add texture to some layers

These cards are absolutely beautiful and can be used for many occasions.

  • Morning Star


    Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet?  It's called Morning Star (seen here) and is one of Stampin' Up!'s distinktive type of stamps. This means you can get multiple hues of color with just one inking.  It's amazing!  

    It is retiring next week so if you'd like it, get it now! Here's a few cards I created when playing with it.  I think this set has been a bit of a sleeper; lost among the many favorite in the 2020 January-June catalog.  

    Here I used Old Olive and Gorgeous Grape; one of my favorite green and purple combos.  Because this stamp set is photopolymer you can easily stamp the images just where you want them, placing them perfectly.

    Here are the measurements and supplies:

    • Old Olive 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
    • Regals designer paper 5 1/4" X 1 7/8"
    • Gorgeous Grape 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • White 4 1/2" X 3 3/8"
    • Label Me Fancy Punch, Grape striped ribbon, dimensionals, mini glue dots 

    Here's another simple card made with this pretty stamp set this time in green & blue: 

    I chose to use Pear Pizzazz with Night of Navy here.  This is our Neutrals designer paper pack and it is already out of stock.  It was on the Last Chance list seen here.  I'll miss these pretty patterns although we are getting new packs of 6" designer paper in the upcoming catalog.

    Measurements:

    • Pear Pizzazz 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Navy designer paper 5 1/4" X 2"
    • White – 5 1/4" strip for the Ornate Style die-cut
    • White 3 1/4" X 2 1/2"
    • Navy 3 1/2" X 3"
    • Ornate Style dies, Olive/Terracotta Tile 1/4" ribbon, Noble Peacock rhinestones

  • Spring Punched Banner; cute home decor piece!


    To all of our Veterans; thank you for your service!  I wish you all a safe and happy Memorial Day! 

    ~~~

    I haven't shared this project yet; it was the bonus project many of my gals received in their Spring Retreat package.   It's made with the Pleased as Punch designer paper; it was free during Sale-a-Bration earlier this year.  

    To create the banners I first cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" long X 3 1/2" wide.  Then I made a mark at the center of the short end and cut from that mark to the opposite corner.  Then I had my template!  

    I added lots and lots of punched pieces!  I used the Umbrella punch, the Tulips punch, Daisy, Leaf, Butterfly Duo, the Small Bloom punch and the Heart Punch pack.  A few of the banners are textured too.  It would be fun to hang this in your craft room or on a window .

    This is the last bunch of Fun Fold cards this week; each one has been made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  

    Sue made this pretty and unique card using the Positive Thought stamp set. 

    She is super creative and loves to create her own ideas.  Look at this unique card!

    She used the Positive Thoughts stamp set and the Cross of Hope dies (on sale right now for just $10.80; they were $27.00!)

    • Whisper White – 7 1/2" X 5" scored at 3 5/8"

    Next is Karen's pretty card featuring the Magnolia Blooms stamp set and the Magnolia Lane designer paper.  This pretty paper is also on sale; at $8.05 right now while supplies last here.  She colored the flower in with the Petal Pink blends markers. 

    Measurements:

    Candy made this beautiful card, also with the Positive thoughts stamp set and coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies.  

    That gorgeous rectangle die-cut is from the Ornate Layers dies here.  They're amazing!!!  Her colors are Rich Razzleberry, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake and a splash of Coastal Cabana.  Here's the inside view:

    • Crumb Cake pieces are 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"

    Mary made this pretty card using the Free as a Bird stamp set and the Bird Ballad designer paper. 

    The Bird Ballad designer paper is on the Last chance list now; it's on sale for $8.05 while supplies last.

    She colored the birds with Blends markers; so soft and pretty!

    Measurements:

    • Whisper White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end. The inside White Nested Label die-cut is 4 3/4" X 2 5/8"
