What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP

January 30, 2023

We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team. I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.

Save

I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.

I love this sketch because it's simple and unique. A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed. My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed.

My measurements are:

Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
Calypso Coral 2 1/2" X 4"
Evergreen 1" X 5"

I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here.

Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card. I highly recommend them. You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.

Retro style circles layout; super easy! Catch the Live video tonight!

November 9, 2020
Tonight at 7:30 pm Central Time I'm sharing how to make these retro style circle cards on Facebook Live. Click here to join me. You can also see this video below!

Save

Basically you need three sizes of circle dies or punches for the start of this layout. Cut them in half and layer together with the edges meeting on one side. Adhere and add a long greeting between the two.

Watch how on my FB Live replay!

Measurements:
- 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
- 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" Whisper White; the greeting strip is about 5" long and either 1/2" or 3/4" wide depending on your greeting image.
- 1" X 5 1/2" horizontal strip
- Circles from the Stitched Shapes dies are the largest three circles.
You'll want ink, stamps and embellishments that coordinate with your Designer Paper. Remember you could use card stock instead of DSP.

Curvy Christmas & the Postage Punch

November 6, 2020
Check out this easy card using the new Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Postage Punch!

Save

It's super simple! Here's how I made it:
1. Stamp the curvy trees image on the White CS using Shaded Spruce ink. Color the trees with a Light Shaded Spruce Blends marker. Add a tiny star using Cherry Cobbler ink on one tree. Adhere it to the Cherry Cobbler layer and to the main card.
2. Punch out three pieces of Classic Christmas designer paper with the Postage Punch seen here. Adhere to the White CS.
3. Stamp the greeting in Cherry Cobbler ink on a 1/2" strip of White CS. Punch the ends with the Banners Pick a Punch. Add it to the card with mini dimensionals.
4. Finish with a few Holiday rhinestones.
You can see this stamp set here; it's only available through January 4th. And the Classic Christmas Designer Paper is here while supplies last.

Remember that everyone who orders any of these products or places an online order with me in November will receive a free 22 project PDF tutorial featuring the Curvy Celebration products!

Gift Wrapped Box Fold Card with video

November 5, 2020

Check out this cute Christmas card we made at my October Card Clubs! It's a box fold card; a super cute but easy fun fold.

Save

The colors are Real Red with Granny Apple Green & White. The dies on the front are the Stitched Shapes and Hippos & Friends.

It even folds flat for mailing! As you can see the back is similar to the front; leaving some space to write or sign the card.

I used the Gift Wrapped punch bundle from the Holiday catalog. You can see it here.
