  • Check out these Just Kiddin’ Suite cards by our Artist of the Month!


    Today I'm sharing multiple cards made by Marla – our February Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team.  She chose to feature the Just Kiddin' suite seen here.

    Just kidding easel

    This card was cased from Lisa Curcio and is called a 3 tiered easel card.  It's a neat fun fold card.   

    Just kidding easel..

    The front two panels are folded down in the photo above so you can see the back panel of the 3 tiers. Very clever!  

    Just kidding 7

    She used one of the scenes in the DSP for her background and added the girl, ball, pennants, stool and greeting!

    Just kidding 4

    This is a mini slimline card. I believe she stamped the pillows but the rest are cut from the DSP or die-cut with the dies in the bundle. 

    Just Kidding 6

    Here she added the kids, a greeting and the 'block' castle to the Just Kiddin' DSP scene. 

    Just kidding 3

    ON the card above she scored the back of her card base in half (2 3/4") and added the scene and the greeting strip in front with extra scored ends that create a curved element. That pretty purple glimmer paper is from our Online Exclusives.  So cool!  Just Kiddin castle

    This scene is made with the dies in the Just Kiddin' bundle seen here and of course the little girl (fussy cut) from the DSP. 

    Just Kidding 2

    Adding the kids with Dimensionals completes the scene. I love how she let the Just Kiddin' DSP do the work of the background!

    Just kidding 8
    This gatefold card opens up to reveal a full scene! Don't yo love the little baby peeking out!?

    The greeting is on one layer and the kits are on another layer; both have a double score line that makes them pop up slightly. 

    Just kidding 5

     

    Didn't she do an incredible job showcasing the Just Kiddin' suite?!  Great job Marla!!

  • Another version of my 1 sheet box & cards; featuring the Softly Sophisticated DSP


    Today I'm sharing the second version of my 1 sheet box & cards. I shared the other one on Monday;  See it here. 

    Softly Sophisticated box with cards

    These projects feature the Softly Sophisticated designer paper from our recent Sale-a-Bration promotion.  Sadly SAB is over so it's not available anymore.  You can easily substitute your favorite designer paper instead. 

    Please watch the video tutorial below to see how to make this box. I used the crinkled Pool Party ribbon from SAB to close it and the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp & punch bundle on these projects. 

    Softly Sophisticated box

    I decided to attach the ribbon on this box instead of leaving it loose.  I used Tear & Tape and adhered it to the back, upper flap and half of the front.  I tied the tag to the ribbon with twine so it's easy to tie together again.

    Here's the template you can save.  It's also included in the free project sheet below too. 

    A2 box Template

    Click here to download or print the free project sheet: Download 1 sheet box for 6 cards & envelopes

    Here are both of my 1 sheet boxes; which is your favorite?

    Both boxes

    Next I'll share the individual cards with the measurements. Each one is a special but easy fun fold layout. I used just one stamp set on these cards – the Heartfelt Hexagon set. The coordinating Hexagon punch is unavailable right now; it's out of stock but will be back in April. 

    Note the decorated envelopes to match!  Doing this makes your projects extra special and uses up your designer paper stash too.

    Softly Sophisticated Coral

    This card is a new take on a book-binding card fold. It has just one extra layer of card stock to make it a new fold. 

    Measurements: Calypso Coral card 11" X 4 1/4" score at 2 1/8", 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". 2nd piece is 3 1/4" X 4", White inside 2" X 4". DSP – large panel is 3" X 4", 1" X 4" & 2" X 4"

    Softly Sophisticated Pebbled Path.JPG

    I love this card fold!  It used the trimmed off layer from the card base as the front panel. 

    Measurements: Pebbled Path – 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"; cut off one end at 2 3/4". DSP 1 piece at 2" X 4", 2nd piece at 4" X 3"

    Softly Sophisticated Pool Party.JPG

    This card shows off both sides of your designer paper since the DSP is actually the front of your card base.

    Measurements: Pool Party is 5 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4". DSP – 1 piece at 3/4" X 5 1/2", 1 piece at 4" X 5 1/2". Wild Wheat strip 4" X 1"

    Click here or on the photo below to watch the video tutorial.  It will help you understand how to make the box.  Don't forget to follow me on YouTube while you're there!
