More fun cards with leftover paper strips

April 9, 2021

I wanted these cards to be bright and happy so I chose my brightest colors of strips!

Save

This first card has 1/4" strips adhered to a White layer 2 1/2" wide.

Save

After I had the White piece covered with strips I trimmed off the excess on the edges and added it to the White card base. Then I added the pretty dandelion White die-cuts (from the Dandy Wishes dies here). That stitched greeting tag is from the Hydrangea Dies seen here. Artistry Blooms adhesive-backed sequins finish it off as well as a twine bow.

~~~

Next is a card with a woven heart. I think it's pretty neat! And it looks difficult but it's just a few extra steps to die-cut the shape. *Watch the video below to catch my tips on paper weaving.

Save

I share a good demo on this technique in the video below. The strips are 1/2" and the heart shape is die-cut with the retiring Stitched Be Mine dies seen here. There are 16 dies with lots of heart shapes & borders in many sizes.

The pretty textures are from the Little Details embossing folders seen here. It's just $3.20 right now; while supplies last!

Here's the video for all 10 of my paper strips projects!

Quick cards for Men using paper strips!

April 8, 2021

I thought paper strips were a perfect way to create cards for men. So I chose some 1/2" strips of blues and greens and adhered them to a piece of White 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card stock at an angle.

Save

Add them at an angle, graduating colors as you go if you wish. Once you're added strips trim off the excess on the edges.

Next I used the retiring Well Written 'birthday' dies seen here and cut it out of the stripes piece. I wanted the greeting to reflect the same colors in the background. So easy!

I adhered it to the Tasteful Labels die-cut with Multipurpose Glue. I stamped 'Happy' from the coordinating stamp set Well Said seen here and fussy cut it to add to the card.

~~~

Next is another card with the exact same colors but totally different. I adhered 1/2" strips to the edge of a White card base. I didn't worry about the outer edge until I was done; trimming it off afterwards. I focused on the left edge being even.

Save

I added a skinny 1/8" strip of Night of Navy to cover up any unevenness on my left edge. A length of Navy twine wrapped around and into a bow finishes it off.

The 'you' is from the Well Written dies and the 'make me smile' is rom the Well Said stamp set (heat embossed in White) on a Navy Tailored Tag punch.

Men’s cards kit to go with the Well Suited suite.

April 7, 2021
I decided to offer card kits for both men and women this month. With Mother's and Father's day coming up it's nice to have cards for the special people in our lives.

Today I'm highlighting the 10 men's cards showcasing the Well Suited designer paper; many of which are fun folds. Look!

Save

Many of us find men's cards more challenging to make. But these sure came together easily! I chose a few layouts and fun fold cards and walla; done!

I always create a full PDF tutorial for these kits that includes photos, step by step directions, measurements and a supplies list. Choose that option or the Kit to Go which includes the free tutorial. #BestDeal

You'll receive the following in this kit to go:
- 1/2 pkg. Well Suited Designer Paper (6" X 12")
- 2 colors of twine
- Black Matte dots
- free PDF tutorial (photos, measurements, supplies and step by step directions)
I used the Handsomely Suited stamp set for the greetings but you can easily substitute any stamps you already own. However if you want to purchase it, here's a link to the stamp set & here's the link to the bundle. Or add it to your kit at an additional 10% off!

Remember the kit offer ends after April 19th! You have a few options with these cards:
- Choose the PDF tutorial only here $15
- Choose the 10 cards pre-cut kit with tutorial $28 (plus $8 shipping) here.
- Add on the Well Suited bundle with the card kit/PDF and save an extra 10% off! Email me at lagreff60@gmail.com for this option.
- I am also offering a second kit in April; the Hydrangea Hill cards. See that here. More on that tomorrow.
- Choose both April card kits to go here.
You'll receive the PDF instructions in an email immediately after payment. The actual kit will be mailed to you Priority Mail at the end of April (barring any back-orders).
