Sparkling Snowflakes Easy 5 Card Wonder with free templates & video

I'm excited to share today's project. You may know this but I LOVE stamping one sheet wonders! I have created many of them and the layers & templates to make them super easy to use. *see them here

On last week's Live video I shared these pretty snowflake cards; made with my Easy 5 card wonder templates. 

Save

I used the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set seen here. Snowflakes can be wintery or holiday; they're quite versatile.  I added greetings using the Tailor Made Tags & Stylish Shapes dies with a bit of Elegant trim cording. 

Save

My colors include Coastal Cabana, Pretty Peacock, Pool Party & Fresh Freesia. 

I started out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of Basic White card stock. I stamped the snowflakes down the center so some would be on each of the card front pieces.  Each piece measures 3 1/2" X 4 3/4". 

Save

You can see the stamped pieces below.  There is very little waste.  I love being able to create my own patterns with different color combos.  It's so fun and reminds me why I love stamping! 

Save

After you've stamped and cut your 5 layers, you can choose to stamp your greetings in the open area or add greetings using a punch or die-cut.

Now choose a coordinating piece of card stock to create the colored layers for the card fronts. Below is the template with measurements. Again it starts with an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of colored card stock. Each piece measures 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".

  Many of the cards in this kit are fun folds.  Remember that everything is pre-cut for you including die-cuts & punched pieces.  The only thing you have to cut is your brand new designer paper that's included in the card kit.

• Beautifully Happy; a perfect set for some quick cards

  February 16, 2023

  ---

  I needed a bunch of thank you cards for online orders and quickly made this set of cards: 

  Save

  The pretty Beautifully Happy stamp set (Sale-a-Bration and free with a $100 order) is so easy to work with!  It has outline images AND coordinating 'fill in' images that make it super simple to add color where you want it.  And they're Distinktive images too!  This means they give multiple hues of color tones with one stamping.  And I love the greetings too.  

  Save

  I used the Good Things cards & envelopes for these cards. They were available last month for Paper Pumpkin subscribers, but they're sold out now.  I love using coordinating products!  I added a 3" X 5 1/2" piece of Design a Daydream Host DSP to each card.  I think the lattice look works wonderfully with this flower image. 

  Save

  The greetings are made with our Double Oval punch; white & Mossy Meadow.  You can see this pretty stamp set here. 

  Remember that if you order $100 this set is free!  And if you use a host code below you'll get a free package of Milky Dots in your thank you card.

• Awash in Beauty & Dainty Flowers for fast pretty cards!

  February 15, 2023

  ---

  I ran out of thank you cards for online orders and needed some made fast.  I reached for our pretty designer papers and made these 11 cards in less than an hour!  

  Save

  Each piece of designer paper is 3" X 5 1/2". I used Dainty Flowers Sale-a-Bration DSP and Awash in Beauty paper from the Annual catalog.

  From one sheet of 12 X 12" paper this card design gave me 8 card fronts!  They are adhered to the Good Things cards & envelopes. They are unavailable now, but they were an addon product for Paper Pumpkin subscribers in January.  *It pays to be a Paper Pumpkin subscriber to get these great add-ons!  Get a pre-paid subscription here

  I had a bunch of white pre-cut & punched greeting labels and simply stamped the thank you on them (greeting from Thanks a Bunch SAB carrot set).  Then I grabbed more 'extra' items I had on my desk and embellished each card.  Some have ribbons, punched leaves or flowers and embellishments.  It was fun to add on these extras.
