More fun cards with leftover paper strips


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

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

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. 


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!

  • Positive Thoughts; This or That?


    I made two versions of this card; one for a swap and another for a card class. Which do you prefer?


     Purple Posy on the left and Petal Pink on the right. 

    Both card bases are Gray Granite.  See the Positive Thoughts stamp set here.  And the coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies here. Buy both and earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice with your $50 order! 


    I did have trouble getting a good photo of the actual colors on this one.  I added Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon and Champagne rhinestones to this one. I cannot resist adding these when I can.  They're beautiful!

  • Pleased as Punch fun fold card


    I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in.  I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card. 

    The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer.  See measurements below.

    I chose to use the brand new Pleased as Punch designer paper seen here.  It coordinates with FOUR of our current punches – amazing!  The two hearts on this card are punched directly from the designer paper. 

    I love it so much I am featuring it for my February card kit to go.  I'll share that with you tomorrow. 

    Details:

    • The hearts are punched from the DSP with the Heart Punch Pack
    • The ribbon is the White seam binding on page 25 of the January – June Mini catalog
    • the sequins are from the free SAB Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack seen here
    • the embossing folder is the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder seen here

    Measurements:

    • White – 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Pool Party 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • So Saffron 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Pleased as Punch DSP 1/4" X 3 1/2"
