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.  

Oct Beary Cute Candace Save

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!

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.

  • September Kits to Go – Gilded Autumn and Banner Year; each with 3 options!

    Who's ready for Fall?  It's coming faster than I want!  But it does give me the opportunity to play with Autumn themed cards.  

    I chose the Gilded Autumn specialty designer paper as my inspiration for this month's kit to go cards.  They DSP is so pretty!  I absolutely love the addition of Mint Macaron and Cajun Craze to this years colors.  

    Sept Beautiful Autumn all Save

    The cards include a few fun fold designs, which I love to make.  There are 5 different cards and you'll receive 2 of each in the kit.  Change them up with either different choices of paper or greetings if you'd like.  

    This kit includes $20 in product and the pre-cut cards kit.  And it's just $28!!  That means you're paying about $4 for the 10 cards!

  • Quadrangle Cards Technique; a great use of your 6 X 6″ Designer Paper!

    Check out this great template where you cut a 6 X 6" piece of Designer Paper into 4 pieces for 4 cards.  I also layered it with a 6 1/2" piece of card stock for easy borders!  Look!

    August 24th 4 cards Save

    I created the above cards with a sheet of the beautiful Plaid Tidings 6" DSP from the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I also used the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle and the two Daisy punches in the annual catalog.  Super easy cards! 

    The colors are Mango Melody, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White.  

    Then I used a different sheet of the Plaid Tidings DSP on Facebook Live last week.  I LOVE Black & White with a pop of color so I added Magenta Madness and used the Zany Zebras stamp set seen here.  

    August 24th 4 cards Save

    Aren't they fun?!  I wasn't sure if I wanted to add any pink to the zebras but I ended up loving it! I colored just a bit on the zebras with the Magenta Madness Blends marker.   

    If you're wondering just where this stamp set is, you can find it in the Beginner's Brochure or click here to see it online. 

    Below is my template for the Designer Paper.

    Next you'll see how you can place the DSP pieces onto a piece of 6 1/2" square piece of card stock and get nice layers. 

    You can see how I did it in the video below.  Remember I host 6 FB Live's a week.  Every Tuesday at 11 am CT and the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm.  Check them out here.   Just click on 'more' and then 'videos'.

    Tip: If you have trouble measuring things I suggest that once you have a template for both the Designer Paper and the layered card stock piece you save one to reuse over and over again.

  • Christmas Card classes are starting in September!

    I know it seems early to start on Christmas cards but I have many people that start them way before this.  I am definitely NOT ready for summer to be over!  I want to hang on as long as I can!

    I hold two Christmas Class sessions per month from September through early December.  I know many of you wonder how I can do this during Covid-19 but my classes are not large so there can be quite a bit of space between people.  And masks are encouraged.  

    Here are my first set of cards for September's classes:

    Sept cards Save

    I'm featuring the Snowflake Wishes bundle, the Tree Angle stamp set & Triangle dies, the Evergreen Forest embossing folder & Toille Christmas and lastly the Merry Moose bundle.  

    They'll make 3 of each card with coordinating stamped envelopes for a total of 12 cards per class.  Most people come to all 4 month's of classes and end up with 48 beautiful Christmas cards ready for addressing.  

    Sept cards Save

    The class dates are September 12th at 10 am and 16th at 6 pm.  Please RSVP by September 7th to attend.  

    If you cannot attend class locally in Minot, ND you can choose to order the pdf tutorial for these cards.  They're designed for both  crafters and for demonstrators to use in their classes. Check it out here.
