Merriest Moments ‘5 at a time’ cards with free templates


Here's another set of my '5 at a time' cards I shared yesterday here.  I used the Merriest Moments stamp set. This stamp set is carrying over to next year's Holiday catalog along with the dies & Hybrid embossing folder but they will not longer be in a bundle at 10% off.

See the carry over list here.  And the retiring or Last Chance list here  

My colors include Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce, Sahara Sand & White.  I love the unusual addition of the Sahara Sand.  I chose it to blend in softly instead of another attention grabber. 

See the texture?  After I stamped I used the Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder before layering the pieces and finishing the cards. I used the Double Oval punch here. 

If you missed yesterday's post I shared these '5 at a time' cards on a recent FB Live video seen here.  I created two templates that layer each other for quick set of 5 A2 sized finished cards.  And they sized perfectly for very little waste. 

Below is how the White card stock is stamped.  Can you see that the images concentrate on two sides of each piece leaving one corner free & clear? This keeps the cards from being too busy. 

Before I stamped I scored on the 4 3/4" and 3 1/2" lines (using the measurements on the template) leaving the piece intact. You could also draw a light pencil mark so you know where to stamp. Then after stamping I can cut on the scored lines. 

Below are the templates.  Remember these are 8 1/2" X 11" to start with.  


As you can see these templates have very little waste. 

I hope you watch the video below to see the tips & tricks on using these templates.

  • A pretty card with the Wonderful World free bundle from Sale-a-Bration


    This is a card I made for an online swap I joined.  I LOVE swapping and getting a bunch of cards back that I didn't have to design! It also gives my customers a variety of cards that might not be my style but could be theirs. 

    I couldn't stop playing with the Wonderful World bundle from Sale-a-Bration! 

    The colors are Mossy Meadow, Starry Sky & Basic White.  I simply added a 1 1/2" X 5 1/2" strip of the pretty Wonderful World designer paper to pull the colors together.  The pattern & colors in the DSP were my inspiration for the card.  

    Here's a photo of the bundle you can earn during our Sale-a-Bration promotion in July & August of 2022.  Any $100 order qualifies you to receive this bundle of designer paper and stamp set!  

    I used the Very Best Occasions bundle for the greeting and the additional corner punch detail.   

    Stop in for another set of cards with this bundle tomorrow.

    Remember that Sale-a-Bration is the best time of year to get free products!  It's smart to order your essentials or from your wishlist during SAB.

  • Black & White with a POP of color & ALL fun folds for my 2nd July card kit to go; or choose the tutorial only option


    I'm always drawn to Black & White patterned paper because it's such a fun start to creating.  Black & White with a 'pop' of color are usually quite striking, eye-catching cards and these are no exception! 

    Each one is a unique fun fold design with great pops of color too.  

    I chose to use the Biggest Wish stamp set for my greetings but you can substitute any set you own.  Or add it on to the kit at an extra 10% off.  

    Here's how it works:

    The pre-cut card kit includes $20 in product and you receive the PDF tutorial free.  It's the best deal. 

    You'll receive 1/2 pkg of the Perfectly Penciled DSP (6" X 12"), a share of the Iridescent Pearls and 1/8" Tahitian Tide ribbon.  You'll have plenty of supplies left to make even more cards!  The kit includes all pre-cut pieces including die-cuts or punched pieces.  It does not include textured embossing. 

    The kit and tutorial include 2 each of 5 card designs. The PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies and step & step directions. I have just a few of these left.  See all of my kits here 

    *Get the pre-cut kit plus tutorial here.  **Choose the PDF tutorial only here. 

    What you need to complete these cards:

    1. A paper trimmer, adhesives & paper snips
    2. Inks and stamp greetings (inks are Real Red, Black & Tahitian Tide)
    3. Die-cut & embossing machine to add texture to some layers

    These cards are uniquely special and can be used for many occasions.

  • Get a 2 toned leaf with Watercolor Pencils with the Soft Seedlings stamp set


    Here's another card I shared on this week's FB Live video.  I continued with the same color scheme of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam. Who knew these colors would be so pretty together!? 


    I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set (seen here) from the new Holiday catalog along with the FREE cards & envelopes from our newest Sale-a-Bration line.  

    I inked and stamped the main leaf image in Soft Sea Foam directly onto the Soft Sea Foam card stock.  Then I used a watercolor pencil from the Assortment 2 package to highlight the leaf with the blue/green hue.  Afterwards I blended it with my Wink of Stella pen.  

    These Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes are a free choice from our new Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here.  I love SAB when we can all get something free with our orders!  Spend a minimum of $50 and pick something absolutely free!  

    These cards & envelopes are one of my top picks in the catalog. The package includes 20 envelopes and 10 each of Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam card bases.  Today's project features the Soft Sea Foam card base. You can use them for lots of cards in the future! 

    Other products used:

    • Stylish Shapes dies for the banners
    • Bough punch with vellum card stock
    • Sponge daubers, Wink of Stella
    • Clear rhinestones with a Granny Apple Green Blends marker to change them from clear to green.

    Below you can see all three cards I shared in the video.  I also shared a bunch of swap cards I received using this stamp set.  I hope you watch it!

    Click on the video below to watch how it's made along with two other cards using this stamp set.
