Fun & Simple card layout for designer paper with video tutorial

Here's one more card shared on last week's Live video.  It is a very simple layout with a bit of fun to it. 

Mixed Media colored Save

It's simply two layers of designer series paper with a slanted greeting across it. The slant adds a bit of playfulness to the vertical layers.  

I used the Mixed Media Florals suite seen here.  It's in our Online Exclusives line which is available to everyone.  The Online title confuses some people but all it really means is that it's not in any published catalog and can be found in our online store.

I tried another version above; one with flowers and the other with a patterned design.  Which do you prefer? 

The center panel is 2" X 5 1/2" and the outer is 2 1/2" X 5 1/2".  The Black strip across is 1" wide.  

The main panel is actually black & white without color.  I used our Blends markers to add color to it.  I love the ability to add whatever color I want to feature.  In this case Petal Pink with pops of Lemon Lolly, Black and Old Olive.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and two other layouts using this pretty designer paper.

    She chose the Night Divine bundle seen here. Unfortunately I noticed the stamp set is out of stock now; it should be back in a few weeks.  She also used the O Holy Night designer paper seen here.  

    Here's the bundle: such beautiful greetings and the dies…!!

  • Artist of the Month projects with the Bag of Bones suite!

    Our Artist of the Month for September was Candy who chose the Bag of Bones bundle. She did an incredible job on her projects! 

    BAG OF BONES BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The suite is no longer available because the Glow in the Dark bats & ghosts have been discontinued. This means you can still get everything else individually. 

    First is a card showing off both the Bag of Bones bundle and the Them Bones designer paper.

    Bag of Bones 1 Save

    She tore her paper and pieces it on her card base.  Then she stamped the skeleton using Versmark onto Black card stock heat embossing it with White embossing powder. Love the boots and hat on him!  The circles are die-cuts from the new Deckled Circle dies in the 2023 Holiday catalog.  

    Here's the Them Bones designer paper: 

    THEM BONES 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    Next is a neat monochromatic card in Basic Gray and Gray Granite.  She stamped the background with the skeleton bones!

    Bag of Bones 5 Save

    The tombstone, fence, bats, cat and dog are all die-cuts from the Bag of Bones bundle. The dog and cat are stamped on our Glow in the Dark specialty paper.  You must use Stazon in for this or it may run. She sponged on gray ink onto the tombstone and fence for a 'spooky' look.  

    Next is a cute treat holder made with that same tombstone die-cut.  She simply added a few strips of card stock inside the two die-cuts to create a pouch.

    This card is so fun; she featured a panel from the Them Bones designer paper to show off the dancing skeleton.  Love his suspenders, hat and bow tie!!  

    Bag of Bones 3 Save

    These skeletons are all heat embossed with White embossing powder onto Black card stock. You can see a few of the glow in the dark bats and ghosts here.  Unfortunately they are sold out now and will not return.  

    Here's a slimline card showing off more of the Them Bones designer paper.  Her colors are Basic Gray, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. 

    Bag of Bones 2 Save

    Isn't it cute how the skeleton on the bottom has his dog on a leash?!  

    This next card shows off a neat background effect.  She used the Deckled Circle dies 

    Bag of Bones 4 Save

    The background is made by sponging on the houndstooth mask (Abundant Beauty decorative masks) then debossed it with the Distressed Tile embossing folder. She then dragged the Blackberry Bliss ink pad across it.  Cool!  

    Didn't she create a fabulous group of projects. She truly showcased this Halloween suite wonderfully!  Fantastic job Candy!!!

  • Pick of the Patch Diamond Flap fun fold card.

    I created this super fun card on a video a few weeks ago. It features the Pick of the Patch stamp & punch bundle and Them Bones designer series paper.  

    Pick of the Patch diamond card Save

    I was inspired by a card my friend Susie Wood made and sent to me. She is fabulous at designing fun fold cards and an amazing designer. Check out her blog here. 

    She used the same designer paper and the Leaf Fall embossing folder but her stamp set is Cheers to the Season seen here. 

    Cheers to the Season Susie Save

    Here's the inside view. You can see the Leaf Fall embossing folder here.

    This card starts out at 10 1/2" X 4 1/4" and with a few score lines and a trim of the end points, you'll achieve this neat fun fold.
