Make up to 24 great cards with this easy layout!

I created 24 wonderful but super easy cards on this week's Facebook Live video.  I featured the same template but switched it from vertical to horizontal for each set of 12 cards.

I chose to use the new Pattern Party host Designer Paper because of it's versatility and fun color combos.  You can see this paper here.

I kept these cards super simple but you could easily add more layers if you'd like.  Here's a close up of two of my favorites:

Above is Crushed Curry card bases paired with the adorable Pattern Party black and white side of this fabulous Designer Paper.  I used both the Friends & Flowers and the Sunny Sentiments stamp sets here.  The flowers are colored in with Blends markers. 

Here are all of the landscape cards; I love this stamp & punch bundle!  

Save

And next are all of the vertical cards.  I stamped the flower image from the Friends & Flowers on either White or colored card stock and colored them in with either Blends markers or Wink of Stella; or both!  Simply add a greeting strip and some rhinestones.  So easy!

The above set of cards is the exact same layout as the landscape cards; just flipped vertically!  I love the versatility of this design!  This is the same designer paper as well, but on the colorful side.  The reverse is all black & white patterns.  

The images are from the Friends & Flowers stamp set.  The greeting strips are about 3/4" X 3". 

Think how quickly you could make a stack of cards using this easy layout!  Below is the video to get my tips and see the cards better. 

Remember that my perk for ordering over $50 in July is a stack of twenty 4" X 6" Designer Paper that includes at least 12 sheets of this Pattern Party DSP.  It's enough to make all 24 cards shown and more!  And the  more you order the more free Designer Paper you'll receive!

• Fields in Bloom Center fold with free project sheet & video tutorial

  August 12, 2024

  I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video.  It's a center fold card featuring the Fields in Bloom stamp set.

  I think this Field of Flowers stamp set is a bit of a sleeper. Until you use it you can't know how easy and amazing it is to create this field of flowers!  It's just two stamps!  The leaves are usually stamped in green and the other in a color for the flowers. 

  It's photopolymer so you can see just where to stamp each image over the other.  Watch the video here or below to see how simple it is.

  Below is the inside view. I used the new Everyday Greetings set for my greeting images.  See it here; it's in the online store.  The greeting die-cut is from the Season of Greeting dies seen here. It's my new favorite dies for greetings.

  My colors include Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink and Balmy Blue.

  If you’re looking for a fun and simple paper crafting this might be your best option! It’s fun, creative, and handmade projects bring joy to you and to others. And nothing makes paper crafting as fun, easy, and creative as Paper Pumpkin!

  EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

  One issue crafters often run into is feeling overwhelmed by their project. Lack of inspiration, proper supplies and crafty know-how might discourage you from even starting a project and unlocking your creative potential!

  This never happens with a craft subscription box from Paper Pumpkin. That’s because everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

  PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

  Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.
