Forever Fern video; an easy trio of gorgeous cards


I can't stop playing with the Forever Fern stamp set!  It's so easy to make beautiful cards with and with some of my favorite 'go to' color combos.

If you like this set of cards check out another stunning set here; it has a kit to go option while supplies last! And a project tutorial available here. 

I made these cards and recorded it on video so you could see how fast they can be.  There are three different card layouts all using the same three colors.  Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape and Bermuda Bay inks with these same card stock colors plus Coastal Cabana and Whisper White.  

The White greeting die is from the Tasteful Labels dies.  I hand cut the larger one. 

Measurements for this card:

  • Granny Apple Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
  • Gorgeous  Grape  3 3/4" X 5"
  • Whisper White 3 pieces at 3 1/2" X 1 1/2"

I used a masking & sponging technique here and added a die-cut from the Flourishing Fern dies too.

Measurements:

  • Coastal Cabana card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  • Gorgeous Grape 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"

A simple card base of Gorgeous Grape 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and White at 5 1/4" X 4".  Did you catch that I sponged the corner of the left one?  Which do you prefer?

  • Have you seen the clever Happy Houseplants kit?!


    One of our most unique kits lately is the Happy Houseplant kit.  It includes 4 frames with everything you need to create adorable home decor!  

    It's in our Kit Collection seen here and is all inclusive. That means it includes everything you need to create the 4 pieces of framed art all for just $25. They're 7" square when finished.

    I think they're perfect to place in a hall, bathroom or a guest room.  Maybe near a real plant as a coordinating accent. 

    A few tips on putting these together. The clear acrylic cover sheet has adhesive on both sides for protection.  Remove them before assembling. 

    See how 3D they are?  I used a bone folder to curl the plants a bit. The kit comes with Dimensionals for adding an elevated look. 

    Because the pre-cut plant layers are meant to be popped up for a 3D look I added foam adhesive strips seen here to the edges of my frame after I added the clear acrylic sheet. *don't look too close; I added the adhesive strips to the frame edges before I added the clear sheet and had to remove them!

    I love the plants & pots this kit creates. What a beautiful set of home decor art! 

    This kit would make a fabulous gift for someone who has a new home and needs art, someone who likes to craft but not collect, or someone who is redecorating.

  • Sending Love Artist of the Month – party 2


    Here are the second set of Sending Love cards by our Artist of the Month – Donna.  See the first batch here.   

    First up today is a fabulous fun fold card.  

    I often forget to cut apart my sentiment like this.  It sure adds a playful note!

    The cute grass and mailbox die-cuts are all from the Sending Love bundle seen here.  The stamp set & dies are returning in the new Annual catalog but they will no longer be a bundle at 10% off. 

    It starts out as a vertical card with this cute mailbox scene.  But when you open it…… you get a horizontal card!

    I only opened the upper flap in the photo above.  You can see how it turns from a vertical card to a landscape card.  Here's what it looks like fully opened.  I love that you can read the greetings either way! 

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue card stock – 2 pieces at 10 1/4" X 4 1/4". Score each in at 4 3/4".  Then mark at 4" and score from that mark to the outside corner.  The two pieces are adhered together in the center (under the large white layer) 
    • White – inside is 5 1/4" X 4", side triangles started out at 3 3/4" square; cut in half on the diagonal. 

    ~~~

    Next is a sweet pocket card.  Don't you love her beautiful sponging?! 

    This card has a hidden pocket between the layers.  See that little envelope sticking out?  

    Measurements:

    • Moody Mauve – 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
    • Sponged Postage die-cut 3 5/8" X 5"
    • Inside White 2 7/8" X 4 1/8"
    • Bubble Bath 3" X 4 1/4"

    ~~~

    Lastly is this adorable hello card with the cutest envelopes on front!  These are also included in the Sending Love dies. 

    She also used the Deckled Circle dies and the Lighter Than Air designer paper (retiring).  The envelopes match the DSP – Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly & Calypso Coral. 

    Thanks so much for creating and sharing these amazing cards with us Donna!!
