Simple Lily of the Valley card; it’s a WOW! Grab the free project sheet or watch the video

August 17, 2026

I shared this beautiful Lily of the Valley card on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those cards that looks simple and easy but involves a bit of effort.

I used the Lily of the Valley dies along with the Everyday Arches dies on the vellum and the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder (it’s back in stock) for the background. White & Granny Apple Green are my colors here.

Since I did-cut the flowers from White CS I used a Granny Apple Green blends marker to color the stems on the flowers. I also curled the die-cut leaves a bit and cut one apart for the thicker stems in the center area. Watch the video to see how.

Did you notice there isn’t a greeting on the front? It’s okay to leave them off now and then. This way my card can be used for any purpose.

I didn’t even stamp one on the inside. Just a simple leaf/flower image. Click here to see the Lily of the Valley in my store. It’s wonderful.

I created a free project sheet for this card as well as my video below. Click here for the project sheet you can download or print.

Beautiful but quick cards with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More card pack

May 15, 2024

I shared this card on last week's FB live video. It starts out with the Thoughtful Journey Memories & More cards and a Basic White Memories & More card base.

I scored the blue card and the front half of the card base in half. Then added a few short pieces of card stock behind the front layers so that layer pops up.

The size of these pieces do not matter at all. Some people use one thicker piece on each side; I used two thin pieces. It allows the top layer to move independently from the front of the card. See how it's done in this video.

You can see these Memories & More cards here. They come in a pack of 28 – half are 3 X 4" and the rest are 4" X 6". They fit our Basic White Memories & More card bases and envelopes perfectly. They're also a great way to create larger than our usual cards – 4 1/4" X 6 1/4" finished size.

I made more beautiful cards with these products, adding a bit of twine to some along with a few printed greetings from the Saying Something Ephemera pack.

You can see the Saying Something Ephemera pack here. It's FULL of tons of greetings you can just add to a card or scrapbook page. I was thrilled when I saw these in the catalog. They're a perfect solution for quick crafting.

Sometimes you want or need to be able to make quick cards; these items are a wonderful way to do that!
