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".

• Forever Fern card with video; quick & gorgeous!

  Forever Fern is my absolute favorite stamp set in the new annual catalog so far.  The images are beautifully detailed and Distinktive!  That means that with one inking you get multiple hues of color on your stamped image.  Look at the detail and natural shading! See it here.

  I chose to use Pretty Peacock, Gorgeous Grape and Old Olive here.  That pretty die-cut is from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here.  

  If you want this stamp set you might wait to order it along with my newest 8 card wonder; it's included in the kit to go!  Click here to order.  Quantities are limited! More Details will be posted tomorrow!

  Crafters are always ready for new products, right?  Even if you think you there will always be more that you 'need'!  It's not hoarding or collecting if you actually use it, right?

  Hopefully you have your new catalog now.  If you do not have a local demonstrator let me know if you'd like one; they cost just $5 for shipping to you.  You can see all of the new products here online. 

  Here's a card I made using all 5 of the beautiful new 2020-22 In Colors:

  The card base is Misty Moonlight and the three 1 1/4" strips are Just Jade, Magenta Madness and Cinnamon Cider.  I added the greeting die-cuts in White and Bumble Bee. These pretty die-cuts are from the Tasteful Labels dies on page 179; they're awesome and one of my favorites I've used a ton. 

  For my long distance customers I'm holding a Virtual New Catalog Party Wednesday evening from 6-9 here on Facebook.  I'm so excited about this; it's the first time I've held one!  

  I'll have videos, both live and recorded, fun & games, ordering specials, door prizes & more.
