Great cards made with the Celebration Expression Memories & More pack


I hadn’t touched the Celebration Expression Memories & More cards yet; so I found an hour or so to create these:

Aren’t they fun? These printed Memories & More cards come in both 4″ X 6″ and 3″ X 4″ cards. They are discounted and retiring! See them here. I did use the ‘Memories & More cards and envelopes’ as the card bases which made it super simple. These cards are a nice size – 4 1/4″ X 6 1/4″ which is larger than our traditional size. They are now in the last chance list and retiring soon!

You’re likely wondering where the greetings came from. And I didn’t stamp a thing! Each of the greetings came from the Saying Something Ephemera pack. These are fabulous! They’re also discounted, in low inventory right now and will likely retire soon. See them here.

I’ll share these cards in sets of 4 next:

I did add a few layers of card stock on these cards to bring some solid backgrounds to the greetings. I also added some rhinestone gems & ribbons – Balmy Blue gingham, Timid Tiger 1/4″ and Bubble Bath 1/8″ ribbons.

It was so much fun to simply play with the cards, layering them or adding CS strips here & there. What a perfect way to create without a lot of product. This would be perfect to take to a crop or crafty play day with friends.

  • Striking and fun Black Magic technique with video!


    I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It’s the Black Magic technique!

    My colors include Peaceful Pine, Old Olive (ink only), Golden Glow and White. It features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here.

    What is the Black Magic technique? It’s where you start with a light neutral piece of card stock and add color with sponges or markers. Then stamp images in Versamark and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. The magic happens when you cover it completely with a water based ink (here I used Secret Sea). Then wipe off the ink that does not ‘stick’ to the heat embossed areas. True magic!

    Watch my video tutorial further below to see this technique in action.

    On this card I used mostly the stamp images; only the greeting die-cut is from the dies. I added a few In Color butterfly gems and the pretty Golden Glow ribbon too.

    I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download it or to print it.

    I made one with Golden Glow as the card base and the other as Peaceful Pine as the card base.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another.

  • Pretty Fern & Flora card; with free project sheet & video tutorial


    There’s something about crisp white on a card. It gives a feeling of elegance to your projects.

    This card features the Fern & Flora bundle seen here. The designer paper is called Moonlit Flora and the embossing folder is called Fern & Flora and can be seen here. Unfortunately the Designer paper AND the embossing folder are out of stock right now. Very popular products!

    I took a little creative license and added White fern die-cuts here. I love the way they show up against the Moonlit Flora designer paper strip.

    The colors include Peaceful Pine, with White and the new Golden Glow in color.

    Which do you like better? All green and White on the upper right, or the pop of the additional Golden Glow?

    The pretty Moonlit Flora designer paper offers multiple patterns: See it here. Be sure to add your name to the product so you get an email when it’s back in stock.

    I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it.

    I also shared a video tutorial for this card and one more using this pretty bundle. Click on it below.
