CUTE Card kit to go with the Storybook Gnomes DSP!! Limited quantities….

I was going to feature the Snowflake Vellum for one of my December card kits to go but it's already sold out.  So I switched to the Storybook Gnomes DSP and I love how they turned out!!

Storybook Gnomes card kit Save

Even if you aren't a 'gnome' person you'll love these cards.  They're filled with snowflakes, Iridescent ribbon and sparkly gems; two of the five are fun folds and one is interactive!  The Designer paper has many choices; some with pretty 'wintery' backgrounds plus scenes with gnomes. 

Because the snowflakes & Fine Sparkle gems are discounted I am able to give even more product in this kit!  I aim for $20 in products in my kits PLUS the 10 pre-cut cards for just $28 plus shipping.  

I have a limited supply of these available so opt in soon!  I will ship these out before Christmas.  

This kit includes: 

  • the 10 pre-cut cards, die-cut & punched pieces
  • 1/2 pkg. (6" X 12") Storybook Gnomes designer paper
  • a share of Iridescent ribbon, Fine sparkle gems & Wonderful Snowflakes
  • the PDF tutorial which is emailed to you right away

It does not include stamped greetings or ink.  I used the Kindest Gnomes & Joyful Flurry stamps but you can easily substitute them). 

You'll also need inks (Pacific Point, Poppy Parade, White Craft & Soft Suede), a paper trimmer and the PDF tutorial.

Click here to get the pre-cut cards kit with products for $28 plus shipping.  *Add on a second kit & save $$.

  • Still more incredible Fun Fold Team swap cards!

    We had sooo many fabulous fancy fold cards at our February Team swap!  I've been sharing a few each day this past week. Please look back to see them all; I'm sharing measurements for each one!

    Jacki made this stunning Pinwheel Tower card featuring the Nature's Sweetness Suite: 

    Feb Jackie Natures sweetness. Save

    Her colors include White, Pebbled Path and bit of Gold foil & Vellum. She also added gold pearls and Gold Elegant Trim. The texture is made with the Exposed Brick embossing folder.  The greeting is from the Charming Sentiments bundle.

    See the Nature's Sweetness suite here; it's huge & filled with beautiful stamps, textures & die-cuts.

    Measurements:

    • Center box is 3 1/4" X 4 1/4"; scored at 1/4", 1", 1 3/4", 2 1/2"

    Next is another incredible card made by Jonna who chose the Gone Fishing bundle seen here.  

    Feb Jonna Gone Fishing Save

    She paired it with the Let's Go Fishing designer paper & Twisted Rope 3D embossing folder. This is an entire suite in the Annual catalog and could retired in April. See it all here.

    Oh; this one is so beautiful!  Tracey made this one with the One Horse Open Sleigh designer paper. 

    Feb Tracey Save

    This fold is my absolute favorite way to show off our scenic papers!  the card base has one extra score line and you cut your paper into pieces from left to right so when the card opens it's a full scene! 

    I LOVE her heat embossed greeting; it's fussy cut into multiple pieces and added with mini dimensionals; what a fabulous effect!  The texture on the front left panel is the Exposed Brick 3D emboss folder seen here. 

    Measurements: 

    • Misty Moonlight card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4", second textured layer is 1" X 5 1/4"
    • Designer paper is 6" X 5 1/4" tall. Cut from left to right at 2 3/4" & 4"

    I shared how to make this card on a video a few months back. See it here.

  • Simple Direct to Paper Technique for quick gorgeous cards! Plus 6 ways to add ribbon! Video & free project sheet too!

    On last week's Live video I focused on the Most Adored specialty designer paper and shared the Direct to Paper technique and these gorgeous cards: 

    Mostly Adorned Direct to Paper technique.. Save

    Anytime we have designer papers with foil designs I think of this fun technique! It's basically rubbing or tapping your water based ink pad onto the designer paper. The ink soaks into the background but resists the foil designs. Simply wipe the excess ink off the foil with a tissue – done!

    Mostly Adorned direct to paper1 Save

    The colors above are Azure Afternoon and Pretty Peacock. Notice the different ribbon techniques and layouts. The left card has loops of ribbon added to the greeting label; the right has a simple fold of ribbon. 

    Each card has two main pieces – the designer paper is 3" X 4" and the layered, coordinating card stock is 3 1/4" X 4 1/4". Check out the different layouts with these basic pieces.  

    Mostly Adorned direct to paper 2 Save

    The left card above is Highland Heather and the right is Sweet Sorbet.  A few more examples of ways to add ribbon and change up this simple layout.  I added two thin strips of ribbon across the left card and tied a bow around the window frame on the right. 

    Remember this pretty specialty paper is available through February during Sale-a-Bration. It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! purchase. See it here. 

    Keeping to a basic layout like this is a wonderful way to get a bunch of cards done quickly and use up your designer paper at the same time! I chose the Charming Sentiments stamp set for all of my greetings.  

    Mostly Adorned direct to paper Save

    The colors above are Copper Clay and Pebbled Path – 2 of our newest in colors.  Ribbon uses include a flag and a double bow.

    The free project sheet can be downloaded here: It's also a great reference for ways to add ribbon! Download Direct to Paper technique with 6 ways to add ribbon

    I hope you're inspired by the simply card idea, the technique and the 6 ways to add ribbon!  Watch the video below to see this technique in action!
