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.

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.

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:

• Easel card fold with Modern Christmas with a free project sheet! Mystery boxes are still available!

  November 11, 2025

  ---

  On last week’s video I shared two fun fold cards featuring the Modern Christmas suite. I shared one yesterday and today I’m sharing the Easel fun fold card. I haven’t made one of these for awhile and forgot how quickly they come together.

  Save

  Black, White & Gold are so classy. I did use one bundle and two sets of dies to create this card.
  

  I used the Traditional Labels bundle seen here for the greeting heat embossed in gold. And the Peace on Earth dies for the center die-cut. Plus the Peaceful Greenery coordinating embossing folder seen here. And lastly the Scenic Adventure dies here for the trees die-cut. Whew!

  Save

  There’s just something about a mostly white card that makes it elegant.
  I did create a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it.

  Below is the video for this card and another fabulous Z-fold card. I hope you watch it and if you’re not already subscribed to my YouTube channel please do!

• Modern Christmas Triple-Z card with video & free project sheet

  November 10, 2025

  ---

  First; I’ll let you know I still have several Mystery Boxes left. Don’t miss the opportunity to get over $200 in free products! See the details here.

  I shared this super neat card on last week’s video. I love this fold! It looks like work but it’s so easy!

  Save

  Isn’t it fabulous?! I found several others online and had to try it. I chose to feature the Modern Christmas suite seen here.

  The scored lines to create this fold are simply 1″ & 3″ for both the card base and the 3 strips. Watch the video below to see how it’s put together.

  The main image of trees is stamped on the die-cut from Branching Out. See these dies here; they coordinate with the stamp set but stand alone too. The greeting is from the Traditional Labels bundle seen here. I cut a second die-cut in Gold and split it apart across the middle so it shows.

  Here’s how I stamped the back side:

  The trees & greetings are from the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the playful style of the stamp set.

  Save

  The card bekiw is the card I made during the video. I changed it up a bit.

  Save

  The beautiful gold & black paper (and the above trees DSP) is from the Modern Christmas DSP seen here. It’s so elegant and fits with the star die-cut from the Modern Christmas bundle quite well. The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

  Save

  I created a free project sheet for these cards. Click here to print or download it. I do recommend you create a file for project sheets or card ideas. It’s so handy to access it quickly.

  Below is the video tutorial for this card and another as well. Both feature this beautiful Modern Christmas suite. I’ll share the other card tomorrow.

• Two more of my favorite kits. There are still Mystery Boxes left!

  November 7, 2025

  ---

  My mystery boxes are selling well; be sure to grab yours while there are some left. *see below

  I wanted to share two more of my favorite kits from our Kit Collection seen here.

  First is a thank you kit called ‘Thank You Kindly’. It’s an elegant set of cards that are both special & easy to make.

  Save

  They’re mostly white with gold foil accents & that stunning black pre-printed greeting. This is a non-stamping kit. It’s currently in low inventory so it will likely sell out soon. It’s just $14 and can be seen here.

  Save

  Next is the gorgeous Harvest Home Garland that can also be made into a wreath. It would be great for your Thanksgiving table or used as a wreath.

  Save

  It took me about 1 1/2 hours to make mine. I even added some sponging/blending to the paper leaves (which wasn’t in the directions. It have everything you need except hot glue – recommended to attach the leaves to the rope. It’s so pretty and I love the non-traditional colors that still have an autumn look. See it in the store here.
