Snowman Magic WOW card; amazing work by Candace!


Last weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds!  I know you're going to love seeing their wonderful creations. 

Today I'm sharing two cards featuring the Santa Express designer paper. This first is made by Candace. She used the Snowman Magic bundle seen here in the 2022 Holiday Catalog.  

Amazing, right?!  

It folds flat for mailing and fits in a standard A2 envelope.  

I'm going to do my best to provide the correct card stock measurements for this:  

  • Shaded Spruce 2 pieces at 4" X 6" score on the long sides at 2" & 5 1/2"; turn and score on the short side at 2".  Cut up to the score lines and trim off the extra 1/2" strip.  
  • inside pieces are 1" X 5 1/2" scored at 3/4" from both ends.  The scored ends are folded and adhered to the outer edges of the box inside. 

She used 1/4" strips of Window Sheets to hold up the snowflakes and holly.  The snowmen, trees and bunny are adhered to the box and inside strips.  It's so darn cute! 

All of these elements are in the Snowman Magic bundle! 

Next is another incredible card made by Brenda; she chose to use the Santa Express designer paper also and added the coordinating Santa's Delivery bundle to hers.

It's a side-step fun fold card.  She chose to use Petal Pink and Pear Pizzazz for her card base & layers.  I love the jumping penguins and that smoke stack!  

Here are the measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 6" scored in half at 4 1/4".  Then make a mark at the 1" and at 6 3/8" at the 3" mark across.  
  • Now you'll cut from those marks down the center of the card.  
  • Next score up to the cut line at 1", 2", 3 1/4" and 6 3/8" 

She cut the trains from the Santa Express designer paper using the Santa's Train dies; which coordinate perfectly.  The cute penguins & smoke are stamped, colored & die-cut.  They're added with 1/4" strips of Window sheets so they pop up and flutter when opened.  Just adorable!  

See the Santa's Train bundle here and the Santa Express DSP here. 

Remember some of these items can sell out before the catalog ends.  Already we are out of the Lights Aglow specialty DSP.

    It's November! It's hard to believe we're starting to think about Thanksgiving already!  

    I have a bunch of handmade cards I'd love to share with you. I know many of you love having card samples in hand for ideas. I have a shoebox full saved for quick reference when I'm creating.  

    My November special for online orders is a set of handmade cards. The more you order the more cards you'll receive!  

    Please use a host code when ordering from me. This helps me a lot so I can afford to gift you all with free items each month. 

    Starting today there's a brand new kit in our Kit Collection; it's a set of cards with a 'destination' theme. It's called the Best Destination Kit – item #163186. 


    This all inclusive kit is $20 and includes:

    • Enough supplies to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs
    • 9 coordinating envelopes

    • One Gorgeous Grape Ink Spot

    Remember that our Kit Collection kits are all inclusive. This means that everything you need is in the kit.  However you may need a paper snips scissors and I recommend adhesive too. The kits usually include dimensionals or glue dots but if you're a crafter you'll want your own adhesive.

  • Gorgeous Abundant Beauty Kraft notecards with gift box


    I was inspired by this set of cards & box by a project shared online. I changed up the colors to 'my' favorites and created this:

    I absolutely LOVE the Abundant Beauty Decorative masks seen here! The sunflowers are my favorite of course, but I also used the houndstooth mask here as well. Unfortunately these masks are out of stock right now. They'll be back around November 13th. 

    You might think I made this box but I sure didn't!  It's found on page 135 of our Annual Catalog. It includes 20 cards & 20 envelopes and one box for gifting cards in; all in Kraft paper.  The cards are notecard side which is 5" X 3 1/2". See it here online. 

    As you can see in the photo below I used the houndstooth mask to add a soft background to each notecard.  I used a blending brush and Copper Clay ink.  

    The sunflowers are made with Pretty Peacock ink and the leaves are Granny Apple Green on White cardstock. Yes; they are all fussy cut! I did some but my friend Pat did the rest for me; she loves to fussy cut things! 

    The greetings are from the So Sincere stamp set from the 2023 Holiday catalog.  It's my favorite greeting set right now. See it here. 

     

    You can see in the photo below that I added the houndstooth pattern to the entire box, inside & out.  Because it comes flat it's easy to do. 

    I hope you're inspired by this project.  I'm not sure who will receive it yet, but it will be someone special!
