Check out these Just Kiddin’ Suite cards by our Artist of the Month!

March 7, 2024

Today I'm sharing multiple cards made by Marla – our February Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team. She chose to feature the Just Kiddin' suite seen here.

Save

This card was cased from Lisa Curcio and is called a 3 tiered easel card. It's a neat fun fold card.

Save

The front two panels are folded down in the photo above so you can see the back panel of the 3 tiers. Very clever!

Save

She used one of the scenes in the DSP for her background and added the girl, ball, pennants, stool and greeting!

Save

This is a mini slimline card. I believe she stamped the pillows but the rest are cut from the DSP or die-cut with the dies in the bundle.

Save

Here she added the kids, a greeting and the 'block' castle to the Just Kiddin' DSP scene.

Save

ON the card above she scored the back of her card base in half (2 3/4") and added the scene and the greeting strip in front with extra scored ends that create a curved element. That pretty purple glimmer paper is from our Online Exclusives. So cool!

Save

This scene is made with the dies in the Just Kiddin' bundle seen here and of course the little girl (fussy cut) from the DSP.

Save

Adding the kids with Dimensionals completes the scene. I love how she let the Just Kiddin' DSP do the work of the background!

Save

This gatefold card opens up to reveal a full scene! Don't yo love the little baby peeking out!?

The greeting is on one layer and the kits are on another layer; both have a double score line that makes them pop up slightly.

Save

Didn't she do an incredible job showcasing the Just Kiddin' suite?! Great job Marla!!

Sentimental Park with Country Gingham DSP card swap

January 9, 2023
I always join a bunch of online swaps with each new catalog. It's so much easier to make a bunch of one card than it is to make one of several different cards for my display boards.

Here's one I made with the Sentimental Park bundle seen here.

Save

I chose to use the Country Gingham 6 X 6" designer paper pack; it has multiple gingham patterns in just a few colors. I added White & Blushing Bride to it.

Notice that pretty white die-cut for the greeting; it has attached floral design on opposing corners for some pretty detail. There are two sizes of this type of die in this bundle and one without the side details. This one fits inside the largest one; the floral detail has slits on the inside to allow the smooth die-cut to fit right in!

Save

The Blushing Bride oval is from the Framed Florets dies. The pretty texture on the White banner is done with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here; also new in the Spring catalog.

Save

My measurements are simple:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- DSP 2" X 4"
- White banner strip 1 1/4" X 5"
Notice the alternate print I used on some of the swaps below; I love having a few choices in similar patterns.

I'll share some photos of my new catalog party from Saturday later this week. Stop back in!

Dainty Flowers cards with time saving tips!

January 6, 2023

I made this pretty card in just a few minutes with 1/8 of a 12 X 12" piece of the Dainty Flowers designer paper. That means you can get 8 cards from each sheet!

Save

I made the first cut across at 5 1/2". Then cut each piece at 3" wide. This gorgeous print is just one of many in this pack. It's free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from January 5th – February 28th. See it here.

If you don't have the ribbon color you want, color it with a Blends marker. Our Blends markers come in a 2-pack of light and dark; try both to see which one fits your needs. And did you know that if you go over it more than once you can get a darker shade? This works on both paper AND ribbon!

Save

If you're making multiples of the same card AND heat embossing why not stamp & heat emboss multiples at the same time?

Save

I inked the greetings (from Dainty Delight) in Versamark ink and stamped on the Old Olive CS. Then covered in White embossing powder before heat embossing with the Heat Tool. Now I could trim them into strips for my cards.

Tip; you cannot do an entire page at once or the ink dries before you can get powder on it. I did 4-5 at a time and it works fine. It all depends on how fast you can cover it with powder.

**Before stamping I swiped my card stock with the embossing buddy. This is an anti-static bag that prevents excess powder from sticking where you don't want it. The embossing buddy is included in our Embossing Additions Tool Kit seen here.

You can see more cards in this video I shared on Tuesday. Click here or on the photo below:
