Fast & Fabulous Zoo Crew cards, with a free project sheet


There's something special about a project in Black and White. I love to add an extra color to really make it pop. These cards were made at my July card club gatherings.  

I wanted a good size piece of the cute, printed Zoo Crew designer paper seen here on the front of the card.  But I also love the mostly Black sheets too.  So I came up with this card.  I added a thin line of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock between the two pieces of DSP (Designer Series Paper).   

I recommend adhering the large layer of DSP to the card base first.  Then adhere the Black DSP to the Lemon Lime Twist strip and add it to the card base.  All that's left is to stamp & heat emboss your greeting (from the Playing in the Rain set). 

Of course there's a cute die-cut stars (Wanted to Say dies) and a Baker's Twine bow to add too. 

Here's the inside:   

The stamped images and Balloon die-cut are all from the Zany Zoo bundle.

Here's a free project sheet if you'd like measurements, directions and a supplies list.  Download July 23 Zoo Crew

It's a great layout to show off both sides of your Designer Paper.  I hope you try it with your favorite papers!

  • Festive Cheer Christmas card


    I love this fun fold card! Two step stamping is one of my favorite types of stamps.

    I chose to use Cherry Cobbler, Peaceful Pine & Golden Glow as my color combination. The Designer Paper is the In Color gingham DSP seen here.

    The Festive Cheer bundle is filled with two-step ornaments and great holiday greetings. And the dies coordinate wonderfully! See this bundle here.

    It’s a unique fun fold in that the greeting tab on the left holds it closed. There’s a third score line on the right side of the card that will bend as it opens.

    Here’s what it looks like fully opened. I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it.

    The video tutorial is below this next image. I’ll share my second card with this stamp set in a few days. Stay tuned.

  • Poetic Petals in a soft color combination


    If you like soft and subtle colors here’s a pretty color combination using two of our newest In Colors – Barely Blush with Crisp Cantaloupe.

    The color combination is inspired by the beautiful Bloom Boutique specialty designer series paper seen here. It has bit of gold foil and includes all of our newest In Colors.

    The unique Poetic Petals bundle seen here is what I used for the dies and greetings. Note the textured background and ribbon knot!

    It’s the Softly Woven 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s temporarily out of stock but should be back in a week or so. To achieve this ribbon knot simply tie one color of ribbon around the other and trim the ends. Add with a mini glue dot.
    The greeting tag is not current; it was among my stash of die-cuts and seemed to fit perfectly here.

    I shared the left card above yesterday. I used the basic layout but changed the cards for one landscape and one vertical. As you can see the Bloom Boutique specialty DSP includes pretty color combinations of our newest In Colors. Love it!

    Thanks for stopping in today; I hope these pretty cards inspired you.

  • Pretty Poetic Petals cards


    Today I’m sharing a few cards made with the unique Poetic Petals bundle. I was inspired by my friend and team member Karen. She paired it with the Bloom Boutique specialty DSP and I loved her idea. I’ll share her card next week.

    I used Hydrangea Hue with Peaceful Pine and White. Once I die-cut the flower frame I added it to a Peaceful Pine CS square; then add to the layered card front.

    See the Poetic Petals bundle here. The dies are awesome and just look at the great greetings in the stamp set! It’s a must have for me.

    You likely notice the ribbon knot; it’s fun to tie one color of ribbon around the other to match the color combo! Try it yourself!

    And notice the background texture? That is the new Rustic Check 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s out of stock but should be back sometime this week.

    I’ll share the other card made with the Poetic Petals bundle tomorrow. Stay tuned!
