EASY 5 at a time cards with Leaves of Holly


I created a set of gorgeous Christmas cards on last week's FB Live video using my two templates.  

I used the Leaves of Holly bundle seen here and these colors – Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Real Red & Cherry Cobbler.  My Soft Succulent card bases are either 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" or 4 1/4" X 11".  

I did use a few images from Merriest Moments stamp set as well.  

Here is the main template that you stamp on.  It shows the cutting measurements that give you 5 pieces for your card fronts.  I frequently use these measurements for the inside of cards; especially when I make a bunch at a time.  Instead of just 4 layers you get 5 from one piece of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock. 

Each piece measures 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" 

In the photo below I stamped on the Basic White card stock (shown on the right) and then cut that into 5 pieces using the template above.  I stamped down the center mostly, leaving open areas in each section so I could stamp a greeting.  If it didn't work out (or I just want to), I add a die-cut or punched greeting. 

To see how I did this the link for the video is here.

 

Here's the other template for the colored layer under the stamped White piece.  In my case it's Cherry Cobbler. Each piece measures 4 7/8" X 3 5/8" giving you a narrow edge, but all 5 from one sheet with very little waste!  Love that! 

What do you think?  Are you going to try the 5 at a time templates?

  • Springtime Scenes bundle meets Painted Illusions DSP


    I had a play with the Springtime Scenes bundle and paired it with the pretty Painted Illusions designer paper.

    My colors are Pretty in Pink, White & Lost Lagoon.
    Measurements: Card base 4 1/4″ X 11″, DSP 1 3/4″ X 5 1/2″, White square 3 1/4″, Lost Lagoon square 3 1/2″

    I started out with the large circle/leaf die-cut. I stamped the greeting inside the circle and then textured the White square with the Beautiful Pattern embossing folder. Now I could add the circle, the flower – both from the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here. It was out of stock for awhile but it’s back now. So many neat die-cuts and the greetings are quite a good variety.

    Next I adhered a strip of the Painted Illusions DSP (Product of the Month) to the card base and added two thin scraps of White CS diagonally. Because I had the large square and the DSP strip I felt it needed something without hard angles like the square/rectangle layers. This gives a bit of fun to the card.

  • Neat Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this neat fun fold card on last week’s video. It is the standard size card but shows off your designer paper so nicely.

    The 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock has an extra score line on the front left. This gives you a spot for a DSP strip and to adhere a 4 1/4″ piece of DSP under that flap. It opens fully because the DSP is only attached to the scored flap. So cool!
    My colors include Misty Moonlight, Strawberry Slush & Crushed Curry; taken from the designer series paper. The little butterflies dies are from the Cutest Crew dies. That greeting is from the Springtime Scenes dies.

    I used the new Homemade Sweetness DSP here with the greeting from the Cutest Crew stamp set. The checked Misty Moonlight ribbon is in the suite with the Homemade Sweetness DSP. There is also a stamp & dies bundle and gems. Here’s a link to the DSP:

    I did create a free project sheet for this card so you can make this fun fold too. Click here to access it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this sweet card; I hope you watch it.
