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


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!  

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:

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.

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. 

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

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

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.

  • Beautiful Nature’s Sweetness specialty paper – for gorgeous cards in this kit to go or PDF tutorial


    I chose to feature the stunning Nature's Sweetness specialty paper for one of my April card kits to go.  It's filled with pretty gold foil patterns and botanical prints. As usual the photo does not do them justice! 

    This card kit to go includes the following:

    • 10 pre-cut cards – 2 each of 5 designs including a few fancy fold layouts
    • 1/2 pkg of the Nature's Sweetness specialty designer paper (6" X 12")
    • a share of the faux leather trim
    • a share of neutral sequins
    • the PDF tutorial with photos, measurements, supplies & step by step directions

    You'll receive the PDF tutorial immediately after payment; check your email. The pre-cut kit & products will be sent at the end of April. 

    The cost for the pre-cut kit & products is $29 plus shipping. Click here to see it. 

    See the PDF tutorial here; it's $15 and does not include product. 

    *This is the kit my subscribers will receive in April.  If you're interested in getting a pre-cut kit each month with $20 in product  Click here to opt in. You can cancel or opt out at any time. It's $28 plus shipping. 


    *This kit does not include stamped images.  You'll need assorted greeting images and a few inks to complete the cards.

    You'll use a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper using the measurements in the tutorial. Everything else is pre-cut for you. 

    Check out the other card kits available here and save on shipping if you order more than one. I'll share my other new card kit in tomorrow's post.

  • More Cutest Cow projects by our Artist of the Month!


    Wait until you see the rest of Deloris's projects with the Cutest Cow bundle! 

    This first card is a fun scene in an accordion style or 'stepper card' that she cased from Queen Bee Creations. 

    She used Granny Apple Green with Black & White. She added a sky background using blending brushes. She fussy cut her grass. The greeting is punched with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 11" scored at 2 1/2", 5", 6 3/4", 8 1/2" & 9 3/4"
    • Grass layers are 5 1/4" wide and approximately 2" & 1 5/8" high
    • White sponged layer 5" X 3 3/4"
    • Black is 5 1/4" X 4" 

    Next is a fun play on a 'purple cow'. Have you ever had that drink?  Ice cream added to grape soda – yum!

    How cute is this!?  Her colors include Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Black & White. The die-cuts are from the wonderful & popular Nested Essentials dies seen here. 

    And lastly a scene directly from the farm! Deloris used to have milk cows on her farm so she knows cows!   

    Her colors include Blueberry Bushel, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Black & White. The designer paper is from the Glorious Gingham pack seen here. The Banner greeting die is also from the Nested Essentials dies. 

    Thank you Deloris for sharing your incredible projects with us!  

     

    As you can see with her adorable projects, the Cutest Cow bundle is super cute & fun to create with!  The stamp set & punch will be sold in the new Annual Catalog coming out in May. It will not be available in a bundle at 10% off though; the items will be sold separately.

  • Amazing Artist of the Month projects with the Cutest Cow bundle!


    Deloris chose to feature the Cutest Cow bundle for her Artist of the Month projects. She did an incredible job showcasing this cute bundle! 

    First is an adorable 'barn' card. Who wouldn't love to receive this fun card? 

    Isn't that the best way to feature these cows!?  She cased Queen Bee Creations for this idea. I love the rooster in the window! 

    Measurements: 

    • Red card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 5 1/2". Make a mark 1" inside the fold and 1" above & below the fold line on the edge. Score. 
    • White inside 4" X 5 1/4" – trim off upper corners to fit the fold
    • White strips to form the barn roof are 3/8" and the door are 1/4". 
    • Old Olive grass she cut into a wave shape and used her scissors to create grass

    Here's the inside view: 

    Next is a sunrise 'Rocker' card using Old Olive & Daffodil Delight. 

    The Deckled Circles are a must for these cards! See them here in our Online Store. 

    Here are her fun 3d projects: 

    For the cow tail candy wrap she used our Blueberry Bushel Glorious Gingham DSP cut with a Deckled circle die. She simply added a few score lines to the middle so it would stand up.

    The Udder Stick (chapstick) holder was cased from Cards by TLC and features Berry Burst Glorious Gingham DSP. 

    I'll share more of her cute projects tomorrow!

    As you can see with her projects, the Cutest Cow bundle is super cute!  The stamp set & punch will be sold in the new Annual Catalog coming out in May. It will not be available in a bundle at 10% off though; the items will be sold separately.
