Corner Latch Cards Video with Expressions in Ink

May 18, 2021

I absolutely LOVE this fun fold! It makes such good use of both your card stock and designer paper. There's a video at the bottom of this post so you can catch my tips and watch me make these.

I chose to use the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper for these cards. It's absolutely stunning and filled with alcohol ink backgrounds. This means you don't have to create them yourself!

This card is made with our new Polished Pink card stock along with a bit of Gold foil accents die-cut with the beautiful Artistic dies.

In this next photo you can see how it opens as well as the stamped images from the Artistically Inked stamp set & bundle seen here.

Below is the same card made with different papers from this DSP only the card base is Pale Papaya. An entirely different look with the softer colors. The flowers & leaves are from the same stamp set and die bundle.

Today I'm sharing a few cards made by my Team Member Mary. She was my October Artist of the Month and she chose to feature the Rustic Crate bundle seen here.

Save

I believe she colored the fall image with Blends markers. Products used include the Let's Go Fishing designer paper, Mossy Meadow, Early Espresso and Wild Wheat card stock as well as the Nested Essential dies and In Color twine.

She simple sponged a bit of Copper clay ink over the fall image.

November 2, 2023
It's November! It's hard to believe we're starting to think about Thanksgiving already!

Remember that our Kit Collection kits are all inclusive. This means that everything you need is in the kit. However you may need a paper snips scissors and I recommend adhesive too. The kits usually include dimensionals or glue dots but if you're a crafter you'll want your own adhesive.

Gorgeous Abundant Beauty Kraft notecards with gift box

November 1, 2023

I was inspired by this set of cards & box by a project shared online. I changed up the colors to 'my' favorites and created this:

Save

I absolutely LOVE the Abundant Beauty Decorative masks seen here! The sunflowers are my favorite of course, but I also used the houndstooth mask here as well. Unfortunately these masks are out of stock right now. They'll be back around November 13th.

Save

You might think I made this box but I sure didn't! It's found on page 135 of our Annual Catalog. It includes 20 cards & 20 envelopes and one box for gifting cards in; all in Kraft paper. The cards are notecard side which is 5" X 3 1/2". See it here online.

Save

As you can see in the photo below I used the houndstooth mask to add a soft background to each notecard. I used a blending brush and Copper Clay ink.

Save

The sunflowers are made with Pretty Peacock ink and the leaves are Granny Apple Green on White cardstock. Yes; they are all fussy cut! I did some but my friend Pat did the rest for me; she loves to fussy cut things!

The greetings are from the So Sincere stamp set from the 2023 Holiday catalog. It's my favorite greeting set right now. See it here.

Save

You can see in the photo below that I added the houndstooth pattern to the entire box, inside & out. Because it comes flat it's easy to do.

I hope you're inspired by this project. I'm not sure who will receive it yet, but it will be someone special!
