Look at these Sweet Thoughts Memories & More card – Fast & Fabulous!

Do you ever want to craft & create but don't have enough time to get out multiple supplies and think up ideas?  Time should never stop you from creating!  

I made a few of these cards on last week's Live video and afterwards made more; all in just a few minutes! 

Save

I didn't need any inks or stamps; I used the greetings in the card pack.  So fast!  

I used the Sweet Thoughts card pack seen here; it's 40% off right now. And the cards & envelopes are also on sale. See them here. 

There are times you need to make quick, easy cards just to get your creative fix! 

Save

I did use a paper trimmer to cut some of the cards into pieces. For instance notice the colorful striped edges on a few of the cards.  Those are all from one M & More card; I cut it into 3 pieces.  

Who wouldn't love to give or receive these pretty cards?! 

Save

I used just half a package of these beautiful cards to make these 15 full cards.  These Memories & More cards in the pack are discounted right now in the Last Chance list. They're now $6 instead of $10.  See them here.

The photo of the cards above does not do them justice! Check out the stack on the above left.  The package includes 6 sheets of adhesive die-cuts that are fun to embellish with.

You can use these for cards OR scrapbooking.  I shared my Sweet Thoughts scrapbook pages on Friday's post; see it here. Click here to see my pre-cut scrapbook kit (or tutorial) in my Shop.

You can see the envelopes behind these cards.  They are included in the cards & envelopes pack seen here. They're larger than our standard cards – finished size is 6 1/4" X 4 1/4" and are also discounted to $8 instead of $10. 

Save

I did add Iridescent Pearls and a few ribbons to these cards. Not necessary but always fun to embellish! 

Save

I hope you don't let time stop you from crafting. Add a few of these Memories & More cards or a kit from our Kit Collection for those times you want to create easily without much 'work'.

• More Team Swaps include multiple ‘WOW’ cards!

  August 18, 2022

  Every month our Flowerbug's Team has an optional card swap and I always think it's the best group of cards ever.  Then another month comes and they get even better!  How is it possible?!  

  This first card today features the Brightest Beauty bundle seen here.  It's in our Holiday catalog and has been on my wish list for awhile.  I think she pushed me over the edge with her card!  

  Save

  Her colors include Old Olive & Crushed Curry with White.  I LOVE the frame she made with the Fabulous Frames dies!  The rest of the dies are from the Brightest Beauty bundle.  That stamped background behind the frame and the main image are wonderful together.  The plain white behind the pretty flower & leaves really show the stamped image off.  And that greeting die! 

  ~~~

  Next is an amazing card made by Candace.  She is the expert at sponging backgrounds.  Always so smooth and blended.  

  Who would think of adding a Hippo to Snowflakes?!!  But it works perfectly.  

  Save

  Details:

  • Colors include Gorgeous Grape, White, Highland Heather & Pacific Point
  • The Hippo is from the Hippest Hippos stamp set & dies from our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 
  • The snowflake frame is from the Snowman dies & the Red & White glimmer paper
  • The embossing folder is from the Wintry duo in the Annual catalog
  • She achieved her beautiful background by using Blending Brushes.
  • The pretty 'iridescent' snowflake is from our Wonderful Snowflakes seen here  
  • She printed the greetings on White card stock using her printer! 

  Save

  Next is a simple yet beautiful card made by Annette. She let the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder take the prime spot on her card. This folder comes in a bundle with dies seen here. 

  Save

  Her colors are Old Olive with Very Vanilla.  The greeting is from the Color & Contour bundle.  The offset circles add a playful touch. 

  Come back for more incredible swap cards tomorrow!

• Rings of Love Triple Panel card with video & measurements

  August 16, 2022

  ---

  Here's one more card I made during last week's FB Live with the free Rings of Love designer paper in our Sale-a-Bration offering.  

  Save

  I cut a 3 1/4" X 3" piece of the designer paper and then cut it into three 1" strips.  I then layered it onto three strips of Evening Evergreen CS. 

  I textured the Crumb Cake layer with the Timber embossing folder – it's also a new Free Sale-a-Bration choice in August; with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.   

  I love how the three panels create a 'scene', making the DSP the star of the card.  See the Rings of Love DSP here.

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Poppy Parade 5 ½”X 8 ½”
  • White is 5 ¼” X 4”, Crumb Cake 5” X 3 ¾”
  • Evergreen is 5 1/8” X 3 7/8”, DSP is 1” X 3 ¼”
  • Evergreen strips are 1 1/8” X 3 3/8”
