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.

  • Timeless Arrangements with Countryside Inn DSP; all new!


    I've been super busy prepping for my new catalog launch party tomorrow.  If you're in or near Minot, ND please stop in at 1st Lutheran Church from 10-12:30 pm. There's lots to see!!

    I always join a few online swaps so I can get great samples for my display boards. I made this pretty card for one of them.

    I chose the Timeless Arrangements bundle and added squares of Countryside Inn designer series paper.  I've used this layout before and thought it would work well with the dies in the Timeless Arrangements bundle.  

    Ad you can see on the dies shown below there are 4 different dies that they've added a long piece to; it's perfect to add to the stitched greeting dies for layering.  And they're spaced differently so they layer perfectly with each other!

    My colors are Balmy Blue, Night of Navy with a splash of Lemon Lime Twist. I'm so glad this happy color is back in our color line! 

    The new catalog goes live May 2nd; you can order from it then.  In the meantime don't forget that you are welcome to pre-order either my In Color bundle (details here) or my new Designer Paper Share (details here)

  • In Color bundle special offer ends May 1st!


    Each year with the new in colors release I offer my customers a special In Color Bundle.  I include lots of items so you have perfectly coordinating products to create with. 

    I created these CUTE cards with all 5 new In Colors and the Crafting with You bundle. 

    I used many products that are included in my special bundle: card stock, ink, ribbons, dots and designer series paper.  They're a great example of all you can create when your products coordinate so perfectly. 

    If you look closely you can see that I stamped a background in each color of ink using the new Cheerful Daisies stamp set. 


    Look at the die-cutting machine; it even has textured paper going through it!  I did that by cutting a slit with my craft knife. The large white angled die-cut is made with the new Countryside Corners dies.  

    Everyone who pre-orders my In Color bundle will receive a free bonus of a ribbon share & In Color dots too!

    In Colors include: Pebbled Path, Moody Mauve, Copper Clay, Boho Blue & Wild Wheat

    Interested in the In Color bundle? There are three choices for you through May 1st:

    Option 1: Get the 5 ink pads, 5 ink refills, 20 sheets 8 1/2" X 11" cardstock, 10 sheets new 6" In Color DSP and get the free ribbon share & in Color gems. $93 (*Long distance customers add $8.50 for Priority shipping for options 1 or 2) 

    Option 2: Get all of the In Color items above PLUS 5 new In Color Blends markers – pay for 4 and get 1 FREE. Cost $142 total

    Option 3: Add on the new Designer Paper share to either option 1 or 2 – 80 sheets of 6 X 6" DSP. Cost is $28.50. *see photo below.  *click here to order it separately. 

    *Long distance customers message me here if you'd like one of these options and I'll send you an invoice. 

    Here are another fabulous group of cards with these in colors, created by Sue Stampfield. She shared these cards in a swap group I'm in with her.  She used the Circle Sayings bundle; another new product you can get on May 2nd!  *or earlier if you are a Demonstrator

  • A NEW catalog bundle – Timeless Arrangements. And a NEW Designer Paper share too!


    If you're near me in Minot, ND I hope you'll plan to come to my New Catalog Launch party on Saturday, April 29th.  It's at 1st Lutheran Church from 10-12:30 pm.

    I have been prepping and working hard on samples, displays, special offers and more. I love to spoil my customers with yummy treats too!

    Would you like to receive every sheet of designer paper in the new Annual Catalog?  I'm doing my usual designer paper share with the new catalog. It includes 12 different packs of NEW DSP. 

    Go here to sign up for your share.  Or message me here with any questions you have. (Locals please message me to sign up)

    Check out this pretty card made with a brand new bundle from the upcoming 2023 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!


    It's called Timeless Arrangements and Demonstrators could pre-order it before the catalog launches on May 2nd for customers.  It was one of my top choices; I've made at least 4 cards with it so far and will be sharing them with you in the next week. 

    My colors include Starry Sky, White and Fresh Freesia.  I paired it with a new package of 6 X 6" designer paper called Bright & Beautiful. 

    Here's how I stamped the inside.  I used two of the foliage images on one block and stamped them repeatedly in first and second generation.

    I shared another version in my video yesterday; see it here.  This card features Petal Pink with Starry Sky along with a bit of Calypso Coral. Which do you prefer? 

    click here or on the photo below to watch the video; it's the second project.
