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!

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".

  Look at these fun and unique cards made with the Stitched Triangle dies!

  Aren't they neat?  Our Stitched dies are quite versatile and can be used in a variety of ways as you can see! 

  I used the Well Said stamp set, Well Written & Stitched Triangle dies.  The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" and the Vellum ¾" X 4”

  Check out the Stitched Rectangle cards below.  I cut all of the Playful Patterns Designer Paper layers at the same time using just 2 dies.

  How did I do it?  Start out with a piece measuring 5 1/4" X 4" and choose the 3rd & 6th dies from the outside.  Perfect layers! 

  I then layered the Designer Paper with card stock and added a die-cut greeting from the Best Year stamp set. 

  Supplies & Measurements:

  • Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, & Calypso Coral

• Black Friday Special! (Through Sunday too)

  November 27, 2020

  ---

  Do you normally shop on Black Friday?  Online or in the stores?  I have a feeling there will be a LOT more online shopping this year!  That's my plan anyway.   

  I thought I'd host my own Black Friday special this weekend; just in case you want/need any Stampin' Up! products.

  Be sure you consider your crafty friends or family when shopping.  Think card kits or Paper Pumpkin! Giving them some special projects to create while they stay at home is a thoughtful gift. 

  All online orders over $55 this weekend that use this host code NCMAWRKB will receive one of our hand made Multipurpose glue stands! 

  And if your order is over $75 I'll add a tube of Multipurpose glue too! 

  Go here to shop but be sure to order between Friday, November 27th through Sunday, November 29th to get this special offer!

  I will choose the color unless you message me requesting a certain color. We have a limited supply of some colors. 

  If you want to purchase one or more they're available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each and shipping is about $3-4 in US.   They make great gifts for your stamping friends!

  Next weekend I'm having the last Christmas cards class on Saturday.  Here are the cards we're making: 

  Save

  It's all about the trees this time!  I realized after I grouped them together that each one features a tree.  

  Class is Saturday, December 5th at 10 am.  Class size is limited due to social distancing but there are two spots left. Message me if you'd like to come.  You can get the PDF tutorial for this class and the 3 others I had here at my Shop.

• Happy Thanksgiving!

  November 26, 2020

  ---

  I hope you can enjoy a very Happy Thanksgiving today!  I know many of us cannot be with the family or friends like we're used to.  It's so difficult with this pandemic; tough times and even tougher decisions! 

  I received this cute card from my friend Pat this week.  I wanted to share it with you with my seasonal wishes for you and your family. 

  Save

  She used my Million Dollar stamp set; Life is Beautiful seen here.  You might think this is for Halloween; but she has a two black cats and I have one so this fit us both! 

  If you aren't on Facebook you might not know about my stamp set challenge.  I found out how many of these stamp sets have been sold so far worldwide and had my FB Live followers guess.  What's your guess??   

  Save

  As of two weeks ago Stampin' Up! has sold over 16,000 sets!  That's 176% over their predicted amount!  Whoop!  I'm thrilled with how you all like it!
