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.

  I featured the Perennial Essence designer paper here.  I kept the dimensions of the paper simple so everyone could prep ahead of time and make their cards with me.  It's so fun to see what paper, stamps and ink everyone uses! 

  Details:

  Top left card – Blushing Bride 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, DSP 2" X 5 1/2", Flirty Flamingo 3 1/2" X 2 1/4"
  Top right card – Gorgeous Grape 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", DSP 5 1/2" X 2 1/2", white die-cut strip, 2 3/8" wide Stitched Nested Label, cut off at 3 1/2" wide
  Bottom left card – White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, 3" X 5 1/2", die-cut White strip

  Other supplies:
  – Die-cut White strips (Ornate Border dies or use a punch), Medium Daisy punch, Leaf punch, Label Me Lovely punch, rhinestones, Faceted gems, sponge, purple Striped ribbon, bone folder, Basket Weave embossing folder
  Inks: Flirty Flamingo, Gorgeous Grape, Old Olive, Blueberry Bushel

  I made a second version with the Noble Peacock specialty designer paper seen here.  One of my favorite papers ever!  It will likely be retiring next week; get it while you can!  Measurements are the same as above.

• Look at this! Ornate Borders wow!

  April 13, 2020

  This is one of the cards I made for everyone who orders the Ornate Thanks bundle (or the Ornate Garden Suite) from me this month. 

  I used THREE of the Ornate Border dies for this card!

  It's Blueberry Bushel with White accents.  I will sure miss this color!  It will be retiring in just 9 days!  Be sure to get any of the 5 retiring in colors while you can. Once the list comes out on April 22nd they go very fast.

  Isn't that border die amazing?  And so simple too. The Blueberry Bushel card starts out as usual at 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".  Then I used the detailed floral border die on the lower edge. *save a few of the leaves for the flower accent in the corner. 

  I used the dotted border die on the lower edge of the White card stock.  Stamp your greetings and add the ribbon and bow. 

  Next cut out the third detailed floral die-cut from a strip of White card stock.  Trim off just a little section of the flowers to add to the upper left corner; with a few of the extra leaves from the lower edge die-cut.

  Adding a White layer inside the card for stamping and/or writing your message highlights the gorgeous floral trim on the front.  

  This is just one of the FREE 3 cards you'll receive from me when you purchase either the Ornate Thanks bundle OR the entire Ornate Garden Suite from me this month.  See it all here in my online store.
