  You can use any piece of 6 X 6" designer paper you'd like!  Let the colors in your paper help you decide on the card bases and accent colors and embellishments.  It's really fun to make cards when you have this easy guide.

  As you can see, depending on your designer paper, colors and orientation the cards don't look the same!

• Tomorrow is the last day; get two pre-cut kits and save on shipping!

  May 15, 2020

  ---

  tomorrow is the last day to get either of my May pre-cut kits to go.  I have two choices!  You can choose one or both!  If you want both I can combine shipping to save you money.

  First is the Quick Cards kit; 10 cards including a few unique folds.  And they're not all flowery either!  Of course you can 'add' flowers if you'd like to…… 

   

  Save

  This kit to go includes $20 in product AND a pre-cut cards kit; all for $28 plus shipping.  The product alone costs just over $24 so you're getting the 10 cards kit for less than $4.  It includes a full pack of 6 X 6" Regals designer series paper, a full spool of White Flax ribbon and 1/2 pkg. of Holiday rhinestones.  

  I used the So Sentimental stamp set on my cards. You can substitute any stamp set you own though. 

  There are three options for you with this kit. Purchase and see them all here. 

  1. First is the complete bundle that includes the pre-cut cards, product, pdf tutorial AND the So Sentimental stamp set for $59.50.
  2. Second choice is the pre-cut cards kit, product and pdf tutorial for $36.
  3. Lastly you can purchase just the pdf tutorial; with no kit or product for $15. 

  *I have a limited number of these kits available.  If you want one; do not wait! Go here to get yours. 

  **If you are already subscribed to my monthly kits to go I have one of these set aside for you.  Do not order another!

  ~~~

  The second available kit includes these gorgeous cards!  Stock up on your supply of masculine cards with this kit that requires NO stamping!

  Save

  It includes $18 in products including 1/2 pkg of Come Sail Away Memories & More cards pack and Memories & More cards and envelopes plus a pre-cut kit needed to complete your cards.  It also includes one package of Basic Brads, two spools of twine (Navy & Navy/Sahara Sand) and a few Sail Away trinkets. 

  I have a limited supply of this kit on hand because many of the products are retiring.  Many of these items are on sale right now on the Last Chance list here. 

  Purchase it here by May 17th.

  Both of these kits will be mailed out at the end of this month, which gives you some wonderful crafting time.
