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:

Save

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:

• Honey Bee & Little Ladybug; choice!

  January 21, 2020

  ---

  I received this gorgeous swap card from my friend Diana Gibbs. I just love it!  

  Save

  Sweet and simple; but a big wow in my opinion.  The bees are colored with Blends markers in Seaside Spray and Mango Melody plus a little Wink of Stella on the wings.

  That pretty Golden Honey Specialty designer paper is one of the FREE choices in our Sale-a-Bration catalog right now.

  Save

  Get it free with any $50 order through March. But beware that some items do not last through the promotion; they've been known to run out of some items before the promotion ends. 

  The circles are 1 3/4" and the bees are die-cut using the Detailed Bee Dies.  These come in a bundle with the stamp set at 10% off.  See them here.   It pairs beautifully with the Golden Honey designer paper above.

  My friend Judith had a workshop this weekend and she loves the Little Ladybug stamp set so I gave them a choice of two cards.  She was so excited to earn this stamp set FREE with her workshop order. 

  Save

  Remember that I'm giving away one set in January!  Everyone who places an online order from me will be entered in the drawing. 

  Save

  I used a Light Flirty Flamingo Blends marker and the Wink of Stella and So Saffron ink for the belly. A bit of Petal Pink for the faces and sponging on the circles as well.  We added Gold pearls for an accent which pairs nicely with the Golden Honey specialty DSP. 

  The card stock measures 4" X 5 1/4" white, DSP is 1 7/8" X 5" and the Black is 2" X 5".  The circles here are 3/4", 1 1/2" and 1 3/4" in size. 

  Below you can see how we stamped the inside of the card.

  Here's the other card we made at my January Flowerbug's Team Meeting featuring the Little Ladybug stamp set:

  I thought the Friendly Silhouettes cat tails/grass die-cut would work well with this set.  See the little ladybugs behind the grass?  I did trim off the 'cattails' so it's just grass here.

• Little Ladybug Spinner Card!!

  January 17, 2020

  ---

  This fabulous spinner card was made by my friend Susie Wood; she sent one to me as we like to make cards for each other to share with our customers.  I love her style so much.  Visit her blog here. 

  Save

  Isn't it adorable?!  It's classic Red, Black & White; perfect for the Ladybug set. The center circles are 1 3/4" and 2" in size. The Black piece is 4" X 3 1/4" in size and that circular opening is 2 3/8" using the Circles Collection dies and punches.

  This cute stamp set is FREE with any $300 order placed during Sale-a-Bration; January through March 2020.  If you don't think you can swing that large of an order I have a few suggestions for you. 

  1. Have a workshop/party and invite your friends. Their orders will add up so you can earn it free!
  2. Place one big order (if you can). You'll get 6 free $50 Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and earn $36 in free hostess benefits. 
  3. Have a book party; inviting your fellow stamping friends to order. I can open a host code so all of the orders can be shipped to each person's ome. Sale-a-Bration is a great time to order!  Free products for each $50 you spend.
  4. Purchase the starter kit and join as a Demonstrator!  Then you get 20% off your $300 order so you're really spending just $240 to earn this set!  Plus you would get 6 free Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and $36 in free hostess benefits. 

  All you need for a spinner card is a window, something to spin and some string or thread.  She used our Silver metallic thread here.  The window is made with our Circles Collection Framelits. 

  Watch the FB live replay video below to see how it's done.

  You might wonder where the black polka dots came from. She used a sponge dauber!  So easy!! 

  Below you can see both cards I demonstrated on my Facebook Live this week.  Click below to see it. Be sure to follow my page so you don't miss it each week on Tuesday's at 11 am CT.
