Quick Notecard idea with the Banner Sayings bundle

I needed to send a few special cards to my Team members this weekend and so I created these cute notecards:

Save

The large piece of designer paper is 4″ X 3″ and the bottom strip is 4″ X 1″. I added a 1/4″ strip of textured Coastal Cabana between them (I found it in my scraps).

I chose to make notecards because the package I was sending their prizes in was narrow and these fit perfectly.
Did you know we carry pre-scored notecards with envelopes? The package includes 20 cards and 20 envelopes for just $10. You can see them here.

I chose the Hobby Haven designer paper because of it’s colors and ‘hobby’ themed prints. See it here. It’s part of our Online product selection.

I decided to feature the Banner Sayings bundle for a few reasons. It’s quick with the coordinating punch and the greeting I chose fit my needs perfectly. Click here to see it. The new Triple Banner punch was out of stock for weeks! But now it’s back.

• Marvelous Nature Ombre technique with video tutorial

  June 9, 2023

  ---

  Today I'm sharing the other card I made during Tuesday's video.  Both featured the new set called Marvelous Nature.

  I used an ombre technique where I inked the solid stamped image with three inks consecutively.  The top is Pool Party, the middle is Lost Lagoon and the bottom is Pretty Peacock.

  You can see this pretty Marvelous Nature stamp set here. 

  The greeting is from the set but I did use the Stylish Shapes dies for it and popped it up on Dimensionals.

  The card base is Lost Lagoon with two strips of Pretty Peacock under the main image.  As you can see by the photo below the left card is lighter than the right one.  In the video I went over the upper part of the image one more time using the Stamparatus; mostly so I could get a more solid, complete image.

• Pretty Marvelous Nature card with video tutorial & measurements

  June 8, 2023

  I've seen a few projects with the Marvelous Nature set and was intrigued by it's reverse images. And it's nature so I ordered it.  This card was one of two I made on this week's Live video:

  I chose to use Lost Lagoon with Pretty Peacock. I also added some of the Hello, Irresistible designer paper. This pretty DSP is on sale right now too!  See it here.  

  You may also spy the shimmery strip beside the greeting.  This is our Soft Shimmer 12" X 12" paper pack seen here.  It has 5 rich colors in it.

  The Marvelous Nature stamp set (seen here) includes two beautiful images and three greetings.  I kept my card very simple to show off the pretty fern image.

  The Inked Botanicals designer paper is a favorite of my customers so I chose it as one of my June card kits.  The color combinations and botanical prints are pretty and quite colorful too. 

  Here are the cards I came up with:

  This 10 card kit features the Inked Botanicals 6 X 6" designer paper by Stampin' Up!  There are 5 designs and you'll make 2 of each.

  Each month I offer at least two kits to go.  The other June kit features the Bright & Beautiful DSP seen here. Each one is available as a pre-cut kit (a convenience for those who don't like to measure or cut pieces) or as a PDF tutorial.  See all of my kits & tutorials here.  

  You'll receive the following in this pre-cut kit:

  • 1/2 pkg. 6 X 6" Inked Botanicals DSP
  • a share of Lost Lagoon 1/4" ribbon
  • a share of Brass Butterflies gems
  • All pre-cut pieces for the 10 cards including punched & die-cut pieces
  • the PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately

  Click here to see the pre-cut kit option.  It's $28 plus shipping.  *Opt in by June 19th. 

  Or Click here for the PDF tutorial; it's $15.

  The tutorial includes photos, step by step directions, a supplies list and measurements.  You'll receive the PDF tutorial in an email immediately after payment.  Please check your spam or junk folder. 

  To complete the cards you will need the following: Calypso Coral & Lost Lagoon inks, a paper trimmer and adhesives. 

  I used the Layering Leaves stamp set for my greeting images.  If you'd like to add it to the kit at an extra 10% off, please message me here and I'll send you an invoice.   

  I think the colors and patterns in this designer paper are fantastic!
