On this week's Live video I shared 3 pretty projects featuring the new Splendid Thoughts bundle from the upcoming Holiday catalog. Here's the first one:

Save

The colors include Petal Pink, Soft Sea Foam, White and Calypso Coral with a few Copper elements too.

I stamped the background on the Petal Pink card base using one of the leaf images in Petal Pink ink. The textured White adds a soft background to the many leaf die-cuts.

Save

Can you spot the main difference between these two cards?

Save

I used one of the dies in the Splendid Stems dies for the greeting piece on the right card. Which do you prefer?

And here's my favorite card I shared in the video. I cased the idea from my friend Lorri Heiling. It's so simple but super special with the foil stitched squares and die-cut leaf. There's something extra special about this leaf die-cut. Can you tell what it is?

Save

It's hard to see in the photo but the entire leaf is on dimensionals. What?! Yes! I adhered a piece of White card stock to our Foam Adhesive Sheets seen here and then die-cut it all at once. So not the entire leaf is popped up. So cool and easily noticed in person.

Save

The card above is made with a copper colored foil piece and the one below is in Fresh Freesia. I also added an extra textured layer to the card base.

Save

The greetings are from the Splendid Thoughts stamp set on a die-cut from the Stylish Shapes dies. A thin strip of Fresh Freesia CS under the greeting pulls it all together.

Click on the photo below to watch the video. You'll see all 3 projects with the Splendid Thoughts bundle.

Happy Valentine’s Day! A Sweet Treat Pouch; easy gift!

February 14, 2020
Here's a super neat way to give a treat to a friend. My friend Marilyn made these for her club gals this month. Many of my gals like to make something special for their fellow club members when they are hostess. I love seeing their creativity!

Save

Isn't it cute? It's made from our clear envelopes! I think it's super clever. She found the idea online and changed it up so it opens at the bottom; no need to destroy the pretty topper to get to your treat!

The card stock and From My Heart designer paper are 'inside' the envelope. You can adhere your candies with mini glue dots to stay in place.

Watch the Facebook Live video replay below. I made one adding a nice big cookie. I placed the cookie in another clear envelope and inserted it into the outer one. I just checked it and it's still soft a few weeks later!

Save

Details:
- Clear envelopes – get 50 in a package for $6. See them here
- Card stock topper is 3 1/2" X 5" scored at 2 1/2". Rounded with the Detailed Trio punch
- From My Heart DSP topper is 1 1/2" X 4 3/4", bottom two corners are rounded
- Card stock inside the envelope is 4 1/4" square
- Designer Series Paper inside the envelope is 4" square
- Be sure to have the opening at the bottom for easy access to your treat!
- Stamps are from Little Ladybug, Heartfelt, Butterfly Gala, Stitched So Sweetly
- I stamped directly on the punched heart above; it's punched from the From My Heart Specialty Designer paper!
- Heart Punch Pack

Newest 5 sheet wonder with Positive Thoughts

February 13, 2020

I knew the Positive Thoughts stamp set would be perfect for a one sheet wonder but it's even better with my 5 Sheet Wonder!

Save

What is a 5 sheet wonder? See the templates above the cards here? Those are the 5 pre-measured templates you use for the layers on each of the cards. Absolutely no measuring here; just cut on the printed lines! My husband and I have created multiple 'wonders' with printed layers to make card making easy. See them all here.

The neutral 'one sheet wonder' template is what you stamp on, creating your own patterned paper. First you'll print the template on it then flip it over to stamp on. The other 4 templates are colored 'layers' for your cards. Cut on the printed lines for perfect layers!

Pleased as Punch; another fun fold card with optional pocket

February 12, 2020
I am loving the spring-like Pleased as Punch designer paper; it's available now while supplies last! See it here. I highly suspect this paper will run out before the end of March. I have no inside information but it's happened before and if you really want it; don't wait! click here to get yours.

I knew I wanted to make the focus of this card a square shape so I could add four pieces of the Designer Paper on the front with the greeting on top. So I had to figure out a way for the side to be separate. I rarely make square cards so this was my compromise.

I adhered the side flap to the card base just at the outside edges to form a pocket. This is for either money or a gift card.

Save

Details:
- Front greeting is Seriously the Best stamp set. I cut apart the 'Hello Friend' greeting so I could ink it up separately.
- Inside stamps and front flowers are from the Thoughtful Blooms set; free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.
- Flower punch is the Small Bloom punch; free during Sale-a-Bration.
- Front stitched die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies
Measurements:
- Mango Melody card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". I cut up to the score line at 1 1/4" on the outside edge. The extra piece is textured with the Coastal Weave embossing folder. It measures 7/8" X 4"
- White – 4" square
- Balmy Blue 1" X 5"
If you like this unique designer paper check out my Pleased as Punch Fun Fold card kit to go here. There are just 4 days left to opt in on it.
