Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!

October 25, 2021

We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'. It's at 7:30 pm CT here.

It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured.

For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog.

Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.

Quick Card template & cute Christmas treats & snowman tags

December 16, 2020
I shared a ton of Holiday projects on this week's FB Live. You can see the video below but here are the projects:

Save

I used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP here along with Very Vanilla, Navy, Brass foil and Peacock CS. This pretty paper is on sale at 50% off! See it here.

This is one of the easiest layouts you can make that still has some layers to it. I like the card below best since you can stamp directly on the single layer and do not need a second greeting piece to stamp on like the cards on the left & right above. Measurements below:

Save

Easy Christmas card
- Main card – 8 ½” X 5 ½” or 4 ¼” X 11”, DSP – 3” square
- CS – 4 ¼” X 3 ¼”, Vanilla greeting layer is 7/8" X 3", Foil strip – ½” X 4”
Next I have a super cute candy box treat made by my friend Marilyn. She used the Celebration Label dies; they're 50% off now while supplies last! See them here.

Save

Celebration Labels Treat box
- Use the largest 2 dies. Center the CS die-cut at 6”; score at 5 3/8” and 6 5/8”
- Box is 2 3/8” X 5 1/8” scored at ½” on each edge
Save

Next is a fun candy bar pull up treat. I love making these since they're so quick & easy.

Save

Santa Pull Up Treat

Red CS 6 1/2" X 7" score at 3/8", 3/4", 3 1/2" and 3 7/8".

Black glitter belt 1" X 7"

This candy bar is in a thin card board box so I had to score it. Usually I just wrap the card stock around the candy bar and glue the edge overlapping each other. That one is a lot quicker.

Save

Lastly is a sweet snowman tag.

Save

It's a piece of Snowflake Splendor DSP and White CS both measuring 4 1/2" X 2" and tied together at the top. I used the Delightful Tag Topper & 2" circle punches here. The stitched nose is made with the Triangle dies. I drew Black 'stones' with a marker for his smile.

Below you can get the tips on putting these projects together. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here.
