WOW fun fold swap cards with the Beary Cute bundle!


Look at these three fabulous swaps that all feature the Beary Cute bundle.  All so different which shows how versatile this bundle can be.  

First is an amazing fun fold card made by Candace.  

She stamped her neat background using stamps from Artistically Inked. I know it doesn't look like a fun fold; but look what you see once you open it up!  

So fun!  And not that difficult either. I created a similar card on this week's Live video. I'll share it and a free project sheet next week.  

Measurements:

  • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 3", 4 1/4", 5 1/2" 
  • front white 2 3/4" X 5 1/4", inside white 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • Pretty Peacock front 2 7/8" X 5 3/8"
  • White inside greeting layers 2 3/4" X 1 1/2"
  • Smoky Slate greeting layers 2 7/8" X 1 3/4" 

She used Pretty Peacock, Basic Gray and Lost Lagoon for her inks.  All stamps are from the Beary Cute stamp set. 

Next is a fun & bright card made by Tracey:

She chose to feature the Merry, Bold & Bright designer paper here, focusing on the blues and green patterns.  She broke up the busy tree paper with a striped piece under the greeting and bow. Neat! 

Here's the inside view.  The greetings are from the Christmas Classics set. 

Next up is a neat book-binding card made by Candy.  

She used the Beary Christmas designer paper and stamps from the Beary Cute bundle. 

Products used:

  • Beary Cute bundle
  • Night of Navy, White, Crumb Cake and Balmy Blue card stock
  • Inks – Balmy Blue, Night of Navy, Misty Moonlight (scarf) and Mossy Meadow
  • Deckled circles dies, Navy & Gold glittered ribbon, Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder.

Measurements:

  • Night of Navy card base 11" X 4 1/4" score at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
  • Balmy blue and White inside 4" square
  • DSP strip 1 1/8" X 4"


Unfortunately the Bear punch is unavailable right now; it will be back the first week in November though. See this bundle here.

  • More Earthen Textures card ideas


    Here is another simple but pretty card I made on last week's Live video. 

    It features the Earthen Textures stamp set & dies bundle.  Unfortunately the dies are in low inventory so they may be unavailable soon.   But they'll be back I'm sure.  You can see them here.  

    I'm not quite ready for fall yet but I do love this color combination of Pecan Pie & Pretty Peacock.  A little touch of gold adds some elegance with the Gold Distressed paper and Festive Pearls.  I added more detail with a stitched edge with the Stitched with Whimsy dies. That notebook die-cut edge is from the Gorgeously Made dies seen here.  

    And here's a very simple version with a similar layout: 

    I didn't even add any bling or embellishments to this one.  I think it needs something… maybe gold pearls? 

    I stamped the vase in Pecan Pie on Basic White and die-cut it out.  Then added another die-cut of the handles from our Gold Distressed paper. The greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on Pretty Peacock card stock. 

    The nice thing about this layout is you can get 5 card fronts from one 8 1/2" X 11" paper when using my 5 at a time layouts.  See them here on this post. 

    You can see more Earthen Textures cards on the video here.  Don't forget to subscribe to either my FB page here to join in the Live's each Tuesday morning.  Or follow me on YouTube here.

  • Alcohol blends technique with video tutorial


    I shared this fun technique on a recent video; I call it the Alcohol Blends Background.  

    For the cards above I added pretty floral die-cuts from the Paper Florist dies.  The greetings are from the Kindest Expressions stamp set.  The background colors were made with the following Blends: Left card Mossy Meadow & Lemon Lime Twist. Right card was Berry Burst & Blackberry Bliss.  

    To achieve this cool background you need Blends or alcohol markers and rubbing alcohol in a spritzer bottle. I used regular Basic White card stock and a clear plastic folder to work on. You can watch the video here.  

    I tried many color combinations; you can see some of the finished cards below plus the backgrounds too. 

    I shared this technique on Monday night's Live and challenge my followers to share a card featuring this technique on my Stamp & Share Facebook group.  Share yours here by August 27th to get in on the door prize drawing.

  • Bright & Beautiful Memories & More cards; choose the kit to go or the PDF tutorial


    I LOVE creating with our Memories & More cards and envelopes.

    I knew the Bright & Beautiful cards with the matching cards & envelopes would make great & colorful cards but I am amazed at how fabulous they turned out.  And how quick and fun it was to make them. 

    Aren't they gorgeous? So bright and colorful. 

    The tutorial includes photos of each card and the cards needed.  This kit is perfect for quick birthday or other celebrations you may need.  There is no stamping needed; the cards or pre-cut adhesive stickers say it all.  

    *All you need to finish these cards is adhesive, scissors and a paper trimmer. (some easy cuts are included in the PDF tutorial)

    When I create my kits, I include extra products valued around $20 and feature them all in my projects. The cost for it all is just $28 plus shipping. The tutorial only is $15. 

    Here's what's included in this kit:

    • 10 Bright & Beautiful cards and envelopes
    • 1/2 package of the Bright & Beautiful Memories & More cards & adhesive die-cuts
    • 1/2 pkg of basic clear rhinestones
    • 2 spools of Baker's twine
    • 1 sheet of mini Stampin' Dimensionals

    Order this kit by August 20th.  It is mailed out at the end of the month.  But the PDF tutorial is sent to you immediately after purchase.
