Card ideas for the Box & Cards; free project sheet with video tutorial


I shared this beautiful box with cards on yesterday’s blog post. You’ll see it in the video and project sheet below too. Today I’ll focus on the cards included in the pretty box.

The featured products include the Lovely Blossoms suite. This card box can fit up to 6 cards with envelopes inside. It’s super easy to make too! It’s included in the free project sheet seen below.

For these cards I used the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here. And the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper seen here.

This first card is a fun fold card; quite unique!

It doesn’t look much different from the front. The colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & White. Here’s a photo of it open:

The White inside layer has two extra folds in it. There’s a narrow flap adhered to the card front that let’s it open in an unusual way. The measurements are in the free project sheet below.

This next card is deceptively simple; but I added a simple trick to layering the DSP on the front:

The main image is from the Lovely Blossoms DSP. This DSP includes multiple printed elements perfect to make the focus of the card. It’s the printed Olive DSP under it I want to call your attention to. Both pieces measure 3″ X 4″. I cut the Olive DSP in half on the diagonal and added that as a layer to the flower layer. Quick and easy but unique. Instead of the traditional even layers this adds interest to your card.

Lastly is a card that shows off a special die-cut in the Lovely Arrangements bundle:

It’s Petal Pink with Secret Sea and White. That multiple circles die is so cool! It truly adds some playfulness to the card. The greeting is stamped on a circle die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

My free project sheet includes these 3 cards plus the template and instructions for the card box as well. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for the box and tips on assembling the fun fold card at the top. Don’t forget to follow me on my YouTube Channel here or my Facebook Page here.

  • New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set


    I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here.  I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd. 

    The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers. 

    I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them!  They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.  

    If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th.  See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

    I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder.  But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in.  Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.  

     

    The Kite Delight stamp set is retiring at the end of May.  I also created two other cards with it during the video.  See all three cards below:

  • Change is Beautiful Paper Pumpkin alternatives; plus discounted past kits while supplies last!


    April's Paper Pumpkin kit is filled with butterflies, scenes & fun fold cards.  Each month I enjoy creating alternative designs with the contents in the kits to share with my subscribers each month.  
     
    I couldn't wait to play with this kit!  Here's a pretty card I made just an hour after receiving my box:
     
     
    I cut the front of a card base to fit on the front of a Crushed Curry card base and used other elements in the kit (butterfly, flower, banner & gems) to create this scene.  I love changing up the cards; the kits are great as is but the challenge of creating something new is fun!
     
    This next card uses the other half of the original card base.  The flower layer and the polka dot layer behind it are from the original card.  I did trim them just a bit to fit on a White layer.  
    Other Details
    • I stamped the butterfly in the kit onto the Granny Apple Green layer with Versamark ink for a soft background. 
    • The caterpillar is from the kit.  
    • The butterflies are stamped on White card stock using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers. 
    • The greeting is stamped on an Oval die-cut. 
    Heads up on May's Paper Pumpkin kit – it will feature each of our 5 new In Colors AND they are adding Golden Vouchers worth $25 USD to some of the boxes. The winners will find their Golden Voucher in their May 2022 Paper Pumpkin box.
