Today's project is one I made for two reasons.  One was to feature the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper in my weekly Live video and the other was for my Flowerbug's Team monthly card swap. 

It's sweet & summery!

You might wonder where I got these shapes & flowers.  Well they are both from a sheet in the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper seen here.  Here's what the full sheet looks like:

And the best part?  The new Inked & Tiled punch pack matches this paper perfectly with very little waste! 

The punches are in a bundle with the Inked & Tiled stamp set here.

My card base is the beautiful new Bubble Bath pink.  I added a layer of Garden Green 3 7/8" C 2 5/8".  That is added to a Scalloped Contours die-cut measuring 4 1/2" X 3 1/8".  

The greeting is heat embossed in White powder on a strip of Garden Green. Then I cut it into a 1/2" strip and used one of the punches to get that cute greeting shape.  

Save

This is one of the reasons I ordered these punches; for greetings.  But they sure make a sweet card front too.

I think you could use other small images, stamped or designer paper, and do this same thing!

Below are all three of the cards I share in the video. Scroll down a bit or watch it here.

Here's the link to see a recent video featuring this card.  I also make two other cards made with the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper.

• Another way to use the Border Basics dies – cut once for two card front!

  June 28, 2023

  Here's the third card I made for last week's live video; it also features the Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.  

  Save

  My colors are Lemon Lime Twist, Cherry Cobbler and White.   The flowers in this pretty designer paper are so real; you almost want to touch them.  

  You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

  Save

  The photo below shows both cards made with the same designer paper.  I loved this pattern so well I didn't change it up for the second card. 

  The greeting and hearts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here.  

  Save

  The pretty scalloped stitched border is made with the Border Basics dies seen here. Start with a piece of White card stock measuring 4" X 5 1/4" and cut it in half with the scalloped die-cut.  Now you have the start for two cards! 

  Below are all three cards made with this three products, all seen on the video below.

• Cut once for two card fronts with the Border Basics dies; video tips & tutorial too

  June 27, 2023

  ---

  I shared one of the cards I made in last week's video and here's another one. Both feature the same three products: Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.  

  Save

  I used the White die-cut leftover from the card I shared yesterday on this card; basically getting two cards from one die-cut!

  The Border Basics dies are wonderful and so versatile since they die-cut the stitched edge on both sides.  Below is a photo of the inside of the card: 

  Save

  The Celebrate, Happy Birthday, stars and present die-cuts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here: 

  Save

  Here are both cards I shared; each with a different piece of the Masterfully Made CS.  As you can see I added a thin line of card stock to rest the 'Celebrate' die-cut on. I love the effect!

  Save

  You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

  Save

  The photo below shows both cards; one cut for two card front! 

  Save

  I cut the right side of the card front off (on the left card) and used that piece on the card on the right. Essentially I cut the card front in half and added it to the card on the right, adding DSP underneath to show off the angles.  One cut; two cards!  

  You can see how I made this card on the video here.  Or click on the photo below to watch. Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on my YouTube channel here.

• Masterfully Made & Wanted to Say quick card ideas with video tips

  June 26, 2023

  And our annual Stampin' Sale is done!  Each June my customers and I host a paper crafting sale – this year we had 30 sellers and we had a fabulous turnout!  

  Save

  That photo was just the stamps for sale; we had so much more!  I wish you could be here for it, but I know it is a long way for some to Minot, ND.  But if you're near me, plan for the weekend after Father's Day. Make a road trip if you can.  
  We had one person come from St. Louis and another who was in town visiting from Peru!  They were so glad to be here for this annual event.

  Last week I shared three card ideas featuring three products: Masterfully Made designer series paper, Wanted to Say dies and Border Basics dies. Here's one of them:

  Save

  The Masterfully Made designer paper features a torn edge look to a few of the sheets.  I chose this one because of it's beautiful colors.  I added Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon in the die-cuts from the Wanted to Say dies.  This set of dies has a detailed and a layered die for each set of words in the set, plus a bunch of other dies like the flowers I used here. You can see them here.

  Save

  The angled border on the White card base is die-cut with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  I love these and use them often.  You can see them here.  I saved the piece I die-cut and used it on another card.  Here are both of the cards I made, using two different sheets of the Masterfully Made DSP. 

  Save

  You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

  Save

  As you can see, there is no stamping on the front.  But I did add a greeting to the inside:
