I'm also sharing this amazing card we made at my November card clubs. I cased it from my friend Susie Wood; she generously shared her idea and card with me. You can see more of her work here on her blog.

  • Origami Christmas Tree card; soooo easy!

    I make one of these trees almost every year.  Why? Because they are easy & fun and we always have new Designer Paper for me to play with. 

    All you need are four squares of DSP. No scoring or other measurements.  Watch the video here or below to see how it's done.

  • Easy Christmas Ornament card

    I think this is pretty clever & unique; it's a 'faux' Christmas ornament on a card. And it's quick & easy too!  

    Christmas ornament cards Save

    It looks so real; like you could lift it off!  And you actually could if you use temporary adhesive; or add it to a pocket.  

    I shared this project on a FB Live last week.  It's the second project I made in this video.  

    Products used:

    • Merry Melody embossing folder on the White CS
    • The ornament is made with the largest smooth circle in our Circles dies. 
    • The DSP is called Painted Christmas and is in low inventory right now.  
    • Elegant Trim for the 'hanger'. 
    • Brushed Metallic specialty CS for the 'hanger'. 
    • Heat embossing for the greeting – from the Words of Cheer stamp set. 
    • CS is Real Red, White & Evening Evergreen 

    Here's a close-up of it.

    I give a few hints in the video on achieving this.  Basically you want to stamp your greeting first and add it to your DSP.  THEN cut both pieces out at the same time with your circle die.

  • Fun way to use paper strips! Live video tonight!

    We made these cards on FB Live Monday night.  What a fun and easy way to use up your extra designer paper pieces! Click here to watch the video. 

    Pattern Party green Save

    I used the Pattern Party designer paper for these cards. It's a host choice in the back of the annual catalog seen here.  One side is Black & White and the other is colorful prints. I love the black & white patterns with a pop of color! 

    Tips: 

    • I start out with a 2 1/4" X 4 3/4" piece of neutral CS.  This is what I adhered the strips of Designer Paper to. 
    • I added Seal adhesive over the entire piece and added the strips one by one. 
    • Apply one strip across the middle at an angle first. Then keep filling in. 
    • I trimmed the excess off the edges once I had it well covered with strips.  
    • My DSP strips measure between 1/4" and 5/8" wide and about 3" long.  It doesn't matter how wide your strips are; it looks great if they're different widths.  
    • Add dimensionals to the back of this piece for added dimension. 
    • Add a greeting and accents if desired.

    You might wonder where this greeting is from.  It's an upcoming Sale-a-Bration stamp set called 'Hello Friend'.  It's in a bundle with a pack of Designer Paper.  It will be free with a $100 purchase during SAB in January & February.  Of course Demo's can earn it free now during our pre-order period. 

    The other new items here is a punch.  Can you spot it?  It's called the bough punch and has two options in the punch.  The large leaf and the 'buds' too.
