Cutest Crew Club card; quick & cute! Free project sheet too

May 11, 2026

This is one of the cards we made at my April card clubs; it features the Cutest Crew bundle.

The Cutest Crew bundle (seen here) has been so popular they cannot keep it in stock! The dies were available last week but now they’re gone again. They should be back the week of May 18th though. Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get a notification as to when they’re available.

My colors are Coastal Cabana with White, Pecan Pie & Crumb Cake. I used the Hobby Haven and Wood Grain Wonders designer papers on my card. Here’s the cat version:

I colored the critters in with Blends markers; stamping the images with Black Memento ink. The stitched die is from the Nested Essential dies seen here; one of my favorites.

I stamped the paw prints image repeatedly in the inside and added one of the pet die-cuts.

Which is your favorite?

I shared a video last week on Facebook and it’s now uploaded to my YouTube Channel. Plus you can access the free project sheet here.

Pretty Friends for Life card with video tutorial & free project sheet

June 18, 2024

Here's the 2nd card I made during last week's video with the Friends for Life bundle.

My colors include Berry Burst, Pumpkin Pie and White. I've always loved pink & orange together for some reason. The white circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. They are in low inventory right now.

Isn't this Full of Life designer paper stunning?!

The pretty designer paper can be seen here.

There are two 'friend' die-cuts. One layers over the other. I cut the larger layer from the designer paper – it's an ombre effect.

During the video I shared a second card as well. I had a great time creating with this bundle. There are so many options between the stamps & dies. See the Friends for Life bundle here. It was $53 and is now $47.

Below is the video for this card and another; both featuring this Full of Life suite. I hope you watch it to get the many tips I like to share in my videos. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you're there!

Friends for Life card with free project sheet & video tutorial

June 17, 2024

On last week's video I shared two cards featuring the neat Friends for Life bundle and the Full of Life designer paper. Here's the first card:

I love the bright colors here! The colors are inspired by the Full of Life DSP – Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue & Daffodil Delight. There is a layer of Shaded Spruce under the White layer to show off the heart die-cut.

This neat bundle is on sale in June; discounted by almost 20%. See the Friends for Life bundle here.

Notice the heart die-cut from the front layer? I saved it and added it inside the card.

I stamped the hearts on another part of the DSP and used the coordinating die to cut them out. The 'wishes' greeting is from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I kept the layout quite simple because the DSP, die-cuts and stamping are the star here. I die-cut the heart from the White layer before I stamped for ease of time during the video. I stamped the 'BEST' greeting first and then added the vertical highlight image in different colors, stamping off first for a lighter hue. I love the effect!

Here's the free project sheet you can print or download: Download Friends for Life Best Wishes here

Below is the video for this card and another; both featuring this Full of Life suite. I hope you watch it to get the many tips I like to share in my videos. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you're there!
