Make up to 24 great cards with this easy layout!

July 9, 2021

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!

Save

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!

One of my October kits to go & tutorials features the gorgeous Traditions of Christmas designer paper. Each card is a fun fold too!

Save

I love the floral and traditional patterns in this pack of specialty paper. It has gold foil accents and a wonderful variety of colors.

You can choose between the pre-cut kit to go or the PDF tutorial. The kit includes almost $20 in Stampin’ Up! products AND the pre-cut cards too. The product includes 1/2 pkg of the DSP, a share of Sparkly Sequins and Olive linen thread.

I include the die-cuts & punched pieces too. Everything is cut for you except your new designer paper share which is 6″ X 12″ – or one half package. You will need your own inks and greeting sentiments plus adhesives of course.

Opt in for the pre-cut kit to go here for $31.

Or the PDF tutorial here. The tutorial and exclusive video will be emailed to you immediately after payment. It includes photos, measurements, a supply list and step by step instructions.

I finished the Handmade & Heartfelt kit; it’s so cool!

October 8, 2025
I played with this fun kit yesterday and made 13 cards! This neat card kit is discounted through today only. It would make a fabulous gift or enjoy it for yourself. see it here

Save

It’s a 10 card kit with envelopes, a stamp set, a storage box, ink spot and more. I added a few extra card bases and got an extra 3 cards from it.
Here are my bonus cards:

Save

See the lower right card? I used the template from the lower left card to sponge Secret Sea ink through the holes to create the starburst pattern. When I did this I did it on the back side so I could still use it on the ‘thanks’ card.

Save

Below are a few more cards I changed up from the original plan. It’s so fun to do this. Even though it’s a pre-planned card kit I love adding my own spin on them.

Save

The cards, envelopes, stamp set etc all fit in the organizer box that’s includes. What a great way to store your cards! See this kit here.

Artistic Leaves with Gathering Together with an easy card sketch plan

October 7, 2025
Here’s the second card I shared on last week’s video. I wanted to feature a card sketch my Flowerbug’s are currently using.

Save

Besides the Artistic Leaves stamp set I also used the Gathering Moments bundle and the Gathering Together specialty designer paper with this sketch:

Save

You might wonder what a sketch is… It’s a layout of boxes or shapes to indicate where you might add layers such as card stock, designer paper, punches or die-cuts.

My colors include Basic Beige, Cajun Craze, Gold and Vanilla.

Save

Here’s the sketch if you want to save it for an idea. I truly believe card sketches are a fabulous way to get inspiration when creating. Remember that a sketch is just the beginning; you can change it up in any way depending on what products you’re using.

The measurements are also include in the free project sheet I created. Click here to download or print it.

I hope you watch the video below to catch the tips and also to see the other beautiful autumn leaf card.
