Delicate Botanical Expressions card with video & free project sheet


Before I share today’s card I want to remind you that today is the last day to take advantage of the Designer Paper and Card stock sale. Go here to shop and grab the deals on paper.

Here’s the pretty card I shared last week on video. We made them at my August Card Clubs. Sadly it was the last Club I’ll hold in Minot. Our house has an offer in pending and I’ll have just one last event this Thursday there. My home studio has so many wonderful memories from my friends/customers. It’s hard to say goodbye!

I’m holding my Holiday Catalog open house September 3rd from 3:30-6 pm. If you’re local please come to see me (and the displays, food and deals!)

It features the new Botanical Expressions die (the white leaves die-cut) seen here. It’s a single die that can be used in multiple ways. I especially love the cut lines in the dies.
*Tip: rub waxed paper over the cutting side of your dies every few cuts; it releases the card stock easily then.

Here I adhered it over dark green DSP and added Barely Blush DSP above and below it. There are so many pretty details here!

The floral DSP is called Bloom Boutique Specialty paper and can be seen here. It’s filled with gold foil highlights.

This card is a landscape gatefold card. The Peaceful Pine layer is adhered to only the left side of the card base.
My greetings are from the Scalloped Blooms and Framed Violets sets. The inside flowers are from the Flowering Meadow stamp set.

That pretty scalloped greeting die is also from the Scalloped Blooms bundle seen here.


I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it. It has measurements, supplies, photos and directions.

I also shared the ‘how to’ video below. I hope you watch!

  • Pretty Pansy Patch fun fold card with measurements!


    Check out this pretty fun fold card using the Pansy Patch suite:  

    The flowers are die-cut from the Pansy Petals designer paper.  Yes; the Pansy dies match the Designer paper perfectly – 2 sets each of leaves and flowers coordinate!

    Note that adorable golden bee embellishment.  They're called Bumblebee trinkets but they are currently unavailable.  They should be back in stock around June 7th. 

    Here are the measurements for this pretty card: 

    • Evening Evergreen:  8 ½” X 5 ½” base scored at 1 ¼” and 4 ¼”
    • Fresh Freesia: 1” X 5 ¼”
    • Basic White:  2 pieces – 3” X 4 ¼” for stitched rectangle die-cut and 2 ¾” X 4” for inside
    • Pansy Petals Designer Paper: 1 ½” X 5 ½” plus more for the die-cut pansies

    I created this display for the Pansy Patch bundle seen here; see how many dies you get?  And you can see how to put each of them together as well. 

    This suite is fresh, springy and unique.  See it all here.

  • How many ways can you use the Elegant Tag punch? LOTS!


    Look at these pretty projects using the Simply Elegant suite

    The Simply Elegant Specialty designer paper is gorgeous as well! It's filled with detailed patterns in Basic Black, Basic Gray, copper, gold, silver, Very Vanilla, Whisper White. 

    Check out the Elegantly Said stamp set here in the bundle with the Elegant Tag punch. 


    Here's a bunch of additional ways to use this Elegant Tag punch. You can lengthen it or insert narrower strips into it. Or use one end or the other to get lots of unique shaped tags with this Elegant Tag punch. 

    Unfortunately this punch is on back order until July!  But you can still order it right now.  I have a feeling they'll turn it off soon and it will be unorderable.
