Here are a few more versions of the Puzzle Slider fun fold cards. I shared how to make them on last week's Live video.

Save

This card starts out with a long card base measuring 9 1/2" X 4 1/4". Score at 1" & 2" from each end. See the template below for the upper white & DSP layers.

I chose to use the new 2024-26 In Color designer paper for my cards. This one features the Peach Pie.

Save

Now you'll cut the front 'white' and designer paper layers using the templates below. Adhere the layers together and add to the side flaps of the card base. Watch the video here or below to see how it's done.

Two-Tone Flora cards; get two cards with one technique!

February 20, 2023

I shared a bunch of projects featuring the Two-Tone Flora bundle seen here on last week's FB Live video.

I hadn't played with it at all and couldn't stop once I started! Here are two cards that may look similar at first, but look closely….

Save

The card on the left has the large, sponged & colored die-cut on the front. But the card on the right is the colored layer underneath the other. So cool! I show how this is done with the small Blending Brushes in the video here.

I used three colors for these cards – Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Calypso Coral. It also features Very Vanilla which I don't use often enough. I found the small blending brushed worked really well for the detailed areas on the die-cut. You can see these brushes here.

Here are both cards with the actual colored die-cut piece on the front.

Save

I accented it with the Sentimental Park, Stylish Shapes and Amazing Thanks dies. Also a few Brushed Brass Butterflies finished the garden feel of these cards.
Save

Below are the cards that show off the area under the sponged die-cut. The colorful sponging reveals the die-cut detail on the Vanilla but the flowers and leaf areas are colored. I love this 2 for 1 technique! I'm sure you have some dies you could use like this too.

Save

The dies above include the Painted Label and Circle Collection dies; along with the Two-Tone Floral dies for the leaf.

Save

I enjoy using two-step stamp sets for the wonderful details and hues of color you can achieve.

Save

I hope you're inspired by this fun technique. Click on the photo below to watch the video and see more cards with this bundle.

There are just two days left to get this gorgeous card kit to go!

February 17, 2023

Sunday is the last day to opt in to receive this beautiful pre-cut card kit to go. It features the stunning Enjoy the Journey designer paper.

Cards like this one really show it off!

Save

Many of the cards in this kit are fun folds. Remember that everything is pre-cut for you including die-cuts & punched pieces. The only thing you have to cut is your brand new designer paper that's included in the card kit.

Besides a half pack of designer paper you also get shares of three spools of twine and Black Matte dots. The PDF tutorial is free in the kit. It's $28 plus shipping and the kits are mailed out at the end of the month.

I design these cards so all you need are greeting images; this time I featured the Happy Labels stamp set seen here. Add it on to the kit to go and you're just $6 away from a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Contact me here to add on to your kit. Black ink is the only color you'll need to finish the cards.

This is another card included in this kit.

Beautifully Happy; a perfect set for some quick cards

February 16, 2023

I needed a bunch of thank you cards for online orders and quickly made this set of cards:

Save

The pretty Beautifully Happy stamp set (Sale-a-Bration and free with a $100 order) is so easy to work with! It has outline images AND coordinating 'fill in' images that make it super simple to add color where you want it. And they're Distinktive images too! This means they give multiple hues of color tones with one stamping. And I love the greetings too.

Save

I used the Good Things cards & envelopes for these cards. They were available last month for Paper Pumpkin subscribers, but they're sold out now. I love using coordinating products! I added a 3" X 5 1/2" piece of Design a Daydream Host DSP to each card. I think the lattice look works wonderfully with this flower image.

Save

The greetings are made with our Double Oval punch; white & Mossy Meadow. You can see this pretty stamp set here.

Remember that if you order $100 this set is free! And if you use a host code below you'll get a free package of Milky Dots in your thank you card.
