Use your nesting dies to create a designer paper window – video & free project sheet


On last week's Live video I shared a neat way to use nesting dies to create a frame with your double sided designer series paper. 

I chose to feature the Thoughtful Moments DSP with this neat technique. Simply choose two dies that are the same shape and about 1/4-1/2" apart.  Die-cut and then flip over the narrow frame to reveal the opposite side of the Designer Series Paper. It's so neat! 

**This Designer Paper and many more will be on sale starting Tuesday, August 6th! Details will be shared tomorrow. 

The leaf die is from the Friends for Life dies. My nesting dies are called Countryside Corners and can be seen here.

Tip – be sure the color of the opposite side of your paper coordinates with the front. I chose the card base to match the frame – Pretty Peacock. My greeting is in Fresh Freesia. 

Here are both cards shown on the video; the second card on the right has a Lost Lagoon frame & card base.  The White die-cut on the right card is from the Thoughtful Wishes bundle.

Here's the free project sheet you can download or print: Download Thoughtful Journey Window card

The designer paper for these cards is 4" X 5 1/4" which leaves a 2" strip for another project.  I wanted to share a quick card to use up that leftover piece:

I simply added it to the card base with a coordinating card stock strip on the edge. Then added layering circles for my greeting.

If you're wondering about the ribbon, it's the pretty Iridescent 1/2" striped trim seen here.  I cut it in half to get 1/4" thick trim. It has been unavailable for awhile but it's back now.

Here are all 4 cards I shared in the video you can see here. 

Here's the video below to see how this is done plus another card idea with the beautiful Thoughtful Journey designer paper.  I'll share the second card Wednesday.

  • Fabulous projects with the Round We Go Bundle and it’s on sale through Sunday!


    Today I'm sharing the first set of projects by our Artist of the Month for June.  Paula chose the Round We Go bundle to create with and she did an incredible job!

    This bundle is on sale through June – an extra 20% off.  It was $45 and is now just $40 for all of the above. See it here.

    This first card features multiple dies and a stamped background too.  The designer papers used for the rosettes include  Full of Life and the In Color 6" X 6" prints.

    Her colors include Boho Blue & Peach Pie with White. 

    Next is a fun patriotic card she made for her nephew who is in the military. It sure reminds me of decorative bunting! 

    Her colors are Red, White & Navy with Crumb Cake.  She stamped the circles with one of the stamps in the set.  Love her creativity! 

    Next up is a fun card with two 'lollipops' made with the dies in the bundle.  

    Her colors include Shy Shamrock, Vanilla and Crumb Cake.  She layered at least 3-4 of the Crumb Cake 'feel better soon' dies together for a fantastic raised look. 

    Next is this amazing box. I haven't seen anyone do a half rosette to decorate a box top before!  It's genius! 

    Her colors are Blueberry Bushel and Lemon Lime Twist. I don't have measurements for the box but it's about 2 3/4" square and over 2" tall.  

    Here's another box she made where she stamped the entire box with many of the image in the set.  

    Her box is made from Lemon Lolly card stock and she added a layered stamped greeting made from one of the dies in the set.  It's almost like a long milk carton box that closes at the top with twine.  Neat! 

    Aren't her projects amazing?  She really showcased this neat bundle.  Stop back tomorrow for the rest of her projects!

  • Tune In Double Diagonal fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    We made this neat card at my June card clubs. It features the Tune In stamp & die bundle 

    My colors include Blueberry Bushel, Gray Granite & White. That plaid designer paper I heat embossed the greeting onto is the Tartan Foil DSP seen here. It's one of our online exclusive products (while supplies last). 

    This bundle is so fun to play with and feels quite retro for many of us.  Check it out here. This neat stamp & die bundle is discounted in June; grab it now while it's on sale! It's an extra 10% off in June – was $41.25 and is now $36.75. A great price for this neat bundle!

    The stamps are fabulous and the dies are over the top!! So much fun creativity you can do with this bundle.

    Here's how the card opens. The left diagonal cut folds under the front vertical flap.  

    Do you see that stamped white background on both the inside Gray Granite and the front Blueberry Bushel layer? That's done with the White Craft ink pad and a stamp in the bundle. 

    There are a ton of layers on this card.  If you'd like to make this fun fold here's the free project sheet you can download and print. Download June Tune In Double Diagonal fold
