A set of Autumn ‘5 at a time’ cards; with video and free project sheet

Look at these beautiful cards; all made by stamping one sheet of Vanilla card stock and cutting it into 5 pieces!

Save

Just like the cards I shared yesterday, they’re stamped with the Tile Garden stamp set seen here. I wanted to create these cards in fall colors instead of the summery colors I shared yesterday.

Here I used Cajun Craze, Golden Glow and Pretty Peacock with Very Vanilla. I love how they turned out!

Save

The 2 templates for both stamping and the Pretty Peacock layers are all made from a single sheet of 8 1/2″ X 11″ card stock. Use them as a cutting guide.

This first one is for the Vanilla or ‘neutral’ stamped layer.

Save

This next template is the one for the Pretty Peacock layer; under the stamped Vanilla pieces. I love how you can use your card stock so effectively!

Save

Both of these templates are included in the free project sheet I created. Click here to print or download it.

And below is the video tutorial I shared last week with an entire different set of cards! I’ll share another version tomorrow.

• Three neat cards with the Dragonfly Garden bundle including a Faux shaker & Fun-Fold card

  April 21, 2021

  ---

  I have a few special cards to share today.  They look difficult or 'fancy' but aren't.  At the end of this post is the video where I share how to make them.  Scroll down to see it or click here.

  This first card is a fun fold that opens in a unique way.

  It's made of two folded pieces of card stock and a few circle dies.  The punched dragonflies are directly from the Dandy Garden DSP.  I didn't stamp them since they match the Dragonflies punch perfectly!

  I posted the measurements in the photo for you.  I try to share them on my FB Live's so people can take screen shots.

  This next card is a 'Faux Shaker' card.  I use one of Stampin' Up!'s clear envelopes to create a pocket of fun that I add to my card front. They are so addictive to shake & rattle!  Watch how in the video below; it's surprisingly easy to make!

  This last card was made to highlight the beautiful but seldom seen Dandelions 3D embossing folder.  It's so pretty and wonderfully detailed.  Great for simple but elegant cards as you can see here.

  This card was made using Purple Posy card stock which is retiring this month. So sad to see it go!  But we are getting a new purple/pink color in the 2021 new catalog called Fresh Freesia that I know we'll love. 

  Here's the video; I hope you watch it!

• Circle Celebration; so fun!

  April 20, 2021

  I have to share this neat card Chanda made for her Card Club swap.  I love seeing their style and what my gals make.

  She stamped the images from the Circle Celebration stamp set (seen here) all over her 4" X 5 1/4" White CS.  Then she stamped more and punched and fussy cut them out to add dimension to the card. 

  I believe her colors are Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry and Real Red. 

  Such a fun and happy card.  Great job Chanda! 

  I'll be using this fun stamp set in a Kit to Go in May; the cards are so fun!!

• 3 Flowering Cactus Fun Fold cards with video!

  April 19, 2021

  ---

  I created these cards on Facebook Live last week using the Flowering Cactus product medley seen on pages 8-9 of the Spring Catalog.  But I purchased the refill kit instead of the main suite because I wanted mostly the paper, twine and felt accents. 

  You'll find the video below.  For those of you on Facebook you can see it here.  

  I share a FB Live video each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Join me here!

  This fold is called a Joy Fold card; a favorite of mine that is basically two half cards folded into one another. 

  The colors are Mint Macaron, Highland Heather and White.   The greeting is from Happiest of Birthdays.  The inside greeting is from Happy Thoughts set in the Spring catalog.

  Next is an accordion style card.  I kind of made this one up; trying to use just half of a sheet of card stock for the fold.

  This greeting die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and that embossing texture is made with the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.  The greeting is from Simply Succulents stamp set in the Spring catalog.

  Lastly is a super simple fun fold card that shows off your designer paper well; on the front and the inside of the card. *See measurements in the photo below.

  The colors here are Mint Macaron, Calypso Coral and White.  The pretty Coral twine comes in the refill kit.
