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. 

Save

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 Magical Meadow fun fold cards by Judith

  November 29, 2023

  ---

  Yesterday I shared the cards Judith made as our Team Artist of the Month and today I'm sharing more. She did a wonderful job highlighting the Magical Meadow bundle and the Winter Meadow designer paper. 

  All of her cards have been fun folds; she does like to make fancy fold cards. 

  Save

  This card features a center greeting layer that enfolds both front layers of her gatefold card.  She left it removeable so the recipient can add it or leave it off.  You can adhere it if you'd like; I usually add it to the left side.  

  The gorgeous leaves & berries image was done with markers; it coordinates with the Magical Meadow dies perfectly! She used the Deckled Circle dies seen here. 

  Below is the inside view with the center layer separate. 

  Save

  Next is another fun fold card I call a double-flap card. She used the same sheet of Winter Meadow as the card above. 

  Save

  She scored the right side of her double layered circles and adhered the scored flap under the inside layers. Clever!  

  The greeting layers are from the Autumn Leaves dies and of course she used the beautiful White & Silver mesh ribbon – all from the 2023 Holiday catalog.  

  Save

  Thank you for sharing these beautiful projects with us Judith!

• Magical Meadow & Winter Meadow fun fold cards

  November 28, 2023

  ---

  Today I'm sharing two gorgeous cards made with the Magical Meadow bundle and the Winter Meadow designer paper.  Judith created multiple projects using this suite as the Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team for November.

  First is a window card using the Deckled Circle dies: 

  Save

  Her colors include Gray Granite & Whisper White. The die-cut greeting is from the Autumn Leaves dies. I've always liked the ribbon tied around the window like this; a unique touch! 

  Measurements:

  • Card back is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  • Designer paper 8" X 5 1/4" score at 4", window die-cut is 2 1/2"

  Save

  The designer paper is carrying over but sadly the Magical Meadow bundle is retiring soon; it's still available while supplies last. 

  Save

  This next card is a fabulous way to feature your double sided designer paper.  

  Save

  Start with a 11" X 4 1/4" layer. Score the left side at 1" and the center at 5 1/2". Fold back the 1" score line and secure closed. She used the Deckled Circle dies and the Silver & White ribbon on her greeting layer; both from the 2023 Holiday catalog. 

  Add a layer inside or just a simple greeting like she did. 

  Save

  The Winter Meadow designer paper is gorgeous as you can see. Beautiful water-colored scenes make your design work easy! I'm so glad it's carrying over for a few more months.  See it here. 

  I'll share more projects tomorrow!

• Wishes all Around Christmas card with video & free project sheet

  November 27, 2023

  ---

  I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving holiday weekend. We sure did!  We spent it with our kids – playing games, making puzzles and of course enjoying wonderful food.

  ~~~

  Have you noticed the Wishes All Around bundle in the 2023 Holiday catalog?  

  I've always loved wreaths.  In fact I used to collect them and put them up at Christmas time on a big wall in my dining room. 

  I thought this Wishes All Around stamp bundle seen here had a wide variety of pretty stamps and wonderful dies. 

  Save

  I heat embossed the tree wreath image in White embossing powder and die-cut it with the coordinating dies. I added it onto three cut panels from the Brushed Gold Cards & envelopes; each one cut at 1 5/8" X 4" and added to my Navy card base. These panels are textured with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder.

  Save

  I love the fact that you can cut the Brushed Gold cards & envelopes into two card fronts; more bang for your buck! 

  Below is a photo of all of the card swaps I made.  I truly love these Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. I've found them quite versatile and easy to use. 

  Save

  Here's a photo of this sweet bundle. As you can see it has three die-cut wreaths, snowflakes, trees and stems/berries. All meant to coordinate with the stamp set. 

  Save

  I made a second version in the video last week. Which do you prefer?

  Bow on top or on the bottom of the wreath?  Gold or white embossed greeting?

  Save

  
  

  Below is the video where I shared this pretty card.  Unfortunately this video has some blurry spots; I hope you can bear with me!
