Pretty Perennials ‘Happy’ card with video


I wanted to use the Pretty Perennials bundle for my April clubs and I found a card like this on Pinterest.  I love the fresh color combination of Daffodil Delight, Smoky Slate and Calypso Coral!

The Perennial dies were used here along with a few others; the recently retired Stitched Shapes and the Stitched So Sweetly dies.  The pretty embossing folder is the Dainty Diamonds and I'm sad to say it did retire last month. 

Here's the Pretty Perennials bundle.  This did not make it in the new Annual catalog and is retiring next month and it will be while supplies last.  

I love this set for the flowers but the greetings are the star in my opinion.  There are so many ways to use the 'happy' with the rest of the words.  My favorite is 'Happy Mail'.  Who wouldn't love getting a card with that saying?  It could also be stamped on the outside of your envelope as well.  

For the inside I used an oval die-cut and added a fun greeting from the Happiest of Birthday's set. 


I made a quick video on putting this card together.  You can see it below.

  • Pleased as Punch; another fun fold card with optional pocket


    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. 

    Details:

    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.

  • Power of Hope meets Peacock Foil


    For our February Flowerbug's Team swap we chose to do a swap featuring Sale-a-Bration cards.  They are all fantastic!  Over the top wonderful.  I cannot wait to share them all with you.  

    Here's the one I made using the Power of Hope bundle seen here.  It's one of the free items you receive with purchase during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from now through March 31st; or while supplies last.  I do suspect this will sell out before March is over.  

    I textured the Noble Peacock Foil (seen here) with the Stone embossing folder from this bundle.  Adding texture to this pretty foil brings it over the top! I also added a layer of vellum and a few flags of Peacock foil.  It comes in 6 single-sided sheets of 12 X 12" foil paper. 2 each of 3 colors: Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, Pretty Peacock.  There are Noble Peacock rhinestones that match this paper perfectly. 

     

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White stamped layer  2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
    • Vellum 2 3/4" X 4"
    • Foil paper 2 1/2" X 4 3/4" plus two 3/8" strips
    • Black 4" X 5 1/4"

  • Seriously the Best Cards with Golden Honey Folio gift pouch & video


    I made this gorgeous cards & folio pouch project two weeks ago on Facebook Live.  Join me each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Follow my FB page here. 

    I chose to use the Golden Honey Specialty Designer Paper for my color inspiration.  It's Black, White with Gold foil accents. Measurements and details are below.  

    As you can see I made a few cards with just black, white and gold. Then I added color on the other with Melon Mambo & used just the black and white DSP.  You can add any of your favorite colors to this pretty paper; Black and White is just the beginning!

    Here are the measurements for the folio pouch and cards.

    • Folio is 8 1/2" X 11".  Score on the long side at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4". Score on the short side at 6 1/2".
    • DSP on the front is 4 1/2" X 5 3/4" and the white layer is 4 5/8" X 6" 
    • Cards measure 4 1/4" X 9"; scored at 5 1/2". DSP is 3 1/4" X 4" and 1 7/8" X 4".

    Here's the Melon Mambo version of this folio:

    The little leaves and butterfly are from the Nature's Thoughts dies seen here.

    Products are pictured at the end of this post.
