Another version of my 1 sheet box & cards; featuring the Softly Sophisticated DSP

Today I'm sharing the second version of my 1 sheet box & cards. I shared the other one on Monday;  See it here. 

Softly Sophisticated box with cards Save

These projects feature the Softly Sophisticated designer paper from our recent Sale-a-Bration promotion.  Sadly SAB is over so it's not available anymore.  You can easily substitute your favorite designer paper instead. 

Please watch the video tutorial below to see how to make this box. I used the crinkled Pool Party ribbon from SAB to close it and the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp & punch bundle on these projects.

I decided to attach the ribbon on this box instead of leaving it loose.  I used Tear & Tape and adhered it to the back, upper flap and half of the front.  I tied the tag to the ribbon with twine so it's easy to tie together again.

Here's the template you can save.  It's also included in the free project sheet below too.

Here are both of my 1 sheet boxes; which is your favorite?

Both boxes Save

Next I'll share the individual cards with the measurements. Each one is a special but easy fun fold layout. I used just one stamp set on these cards – the Heartfelt Hexagon set. The coordinating Hexagon punch is unavailable right now; it's out of stock but will be back in April. 

Note the decorated envelopes to match!  Doing this makes your projects extra special and uses up your designer paper stash too.

Softly Sophisticated Coral Save

This card is a new take on a book-binding card fold. It has just one extra layer of card stock to make it a new fold. 

Measurements: Calypso Coral 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", 1" X 4" & 2" X 4"

Softly Sophisticated Pebbled Path.JPG Save

I love this card fold!  It used the trimmed off layer from the card base as the front panel. 

Measurements: Pebbled Path – 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"

Softly Sophisticated Pool Party.JPG Save

This card shows off both sides of your designer paper since the DSP is actually the front of your card base.

Measurements: Pool Party is 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". Wild Wheat strip 4" X 1"

  • Quick cards with the Stack & Cut template! Video & measurements too!

    I featured the Stack & Cut template for this project from last week's Stamp Camp class.  Scroll down to see the template; it's one of my favorite ways to use designer paper and for quick cards too!  

    Retreat fall thank you Save

    I chose to feature the Celebrate Everything designer paper for a colorful thank you card.  Here are the products I used: 

    • Greetings are from the Charming Sentiments stamp set
    • Leaves are from the Simply Fabulous stamp set
    • The white die-cut is from the Painted Label dies. The Poppy Parade circle is 2 1/4"

    Retreat fall thank you Save

    And here is the template.  Remember that you can use just one piece of DSP for one card; or stack two pieces and get 2 cards.  This works best with double sided designer paper.

    I hope you try making some Stack & Cut cards soon.  Like I said it's a wonderful way to use your designer paper.

  • Christmas Card Class – Attend class or get the pre-cut kit & tutorial!

    Each year I offer my local gals at least 3 Christmas card classes so they can create beautiful cards to send to their family & friends. I also offer my long distance customers a chance to get these same cards in a pre-cut kit & tutorial as well.  

    Here are the beautiful cards for October's class:  

    Sept SAS 2 . Save

    I love the variety – from cute to beautiful; they satisfy all of your holiday card needs.  

    For these cards I used the Christmas Season (2022 Annual Catalog), the Christmas Scottie, Sweet Candy Canes and Peace to You stamp sets from the 2022 Holiday catalog.  You can substitute other sets for these if you'd like to.  

    The local class is on Saturday, October 29th at 10 am.  Cost is $25 and you'll make 3 of each card with stamped, coordinating envelopes too.  RSVP to attend  by Thursday, October 20th please.  

    The pre-cut kit to go includes 12 cards, all cut, die-cut & punched pieces.  It includes ribbons but not gems, texturing or stamped images. The cost is $25 plus shipping. 

    Go here to get the kit to go; while supplies last.  

    You can combine kits and save on shipping.  You can see them all here.  

    I am not offering the PDF tutorial separately at this time. 

    I just love these cards!!

  • Last of the Team swaps; gorgeous cards from the Holiday & Annual catalogs

    Today is the last of the swaps from our Flowerbug's September swap event.  I've sure enjoyed sharing their talent with you and hope you've been inspired by them.  If you haven't seen them all, click here and scroll down.  

    First up is a a card by Ginny who featured the Painted Pheasant stamp set seen here.  I just love the colors she achieved on the bird!!

    Sept Ginny PaintedPheasant Save

    She inked the stamp with markers; spritzed with water and stamped.  A clever way to get multiple colors on this image.  

    Her card base is Petal Pink with a bit of Soft Succulent and Cajun Craze added too.

    Next is a pretty card made by Marilyn with the Gathered White bundle seen here.  

    Sept Ginny PaintedPheasant Save

    She used the Deckled rectangles & Stylish Shapes dies in addition to the dies in the Gathered White bundle.  Her colors are Crushed Curry with Early Espresso & White.

    Lastly is Tracey's cute card made with the Cheerful Basket bundle.  There's so much life & texture to this card! 

    Sept Ginny PaintedPheasant Save

    Her colors are Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler, White & Soft Suede. The embossing folder is called Gingham, the letters are stamped on the Celebrate Everything host DSP and the apples are colored with Blends markers. 

    The 'apples' is made with the adorable Alphabest bundle seen here.  This punch & stamp bundle is so easy to use!  It's photopolymer and allows you to easily and quickly customize your projects.  See it here.
