You’ll want to make this easy box for cards. Grab the free tutorial!

April 13, 2026

I shared this fabulous box for gifting or storing cards in on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those projects you NEED to make!

I found a similar project on Pinterest but the measurements weren’t for A2 cards so I reconfigured it and came up with this one. I love it and the fact that it’s super easy makes it a must have to save among your project ideas.

I used Secret Sea card stock, the DSP and with the retiring Branching Out dies (so sad!) for the front. The Secret Sea bordered ribbon is perfect to wrap and tie into a bow for giving.

If you don’t have these Branching Out dies; I think they’re a must have! Get them ASAP before they’re gone for good.

It features the Lovely Blossoms suite; especially the Lovely Blossoms designer paper here and the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here.

I added three cards & envelopes inside the box but it would fit 5-6 cards if they’re not too thick.

I’ll share the cards in my blog post tomorrow. But in the meantime the template for this box is below.

I created a free project sheet for both the box and the cards. Please click here to print or save it!

The video tutorial is below; please watch it to see how to assemble the box.

Artist of the Month showcase: Donna with the Sending Love bundle

April 16, 2024

Donna chose the Sending Love bundle for here 'Artist of the Month' showcase.

Today I'll share half of the cards she made and the other half tomorrow.

Save

This one is a favorite of mine. There's something about the color combination. Vanilla with Lost Lagoon & Calypso Coral. And her coloring!

Next is a card that looks just like a postcard!

Save

She stamped a background on the Starry Sky 'Postcard' layer then added the best 'faux' postcard over it. Below is the inside view:

Next is her amazing slimline card; it's a huge WOW!

Save

Isn't this an amazing scene? She used Azure Afternoon, Granny Apple Green, Gray Granite and the In Color DSP. She created the hills with the Basic Borders dies seen here. They're half off right now at just $17.40 instead of $29. I've used these so often and am very sad they're retiring.

Save

The cloudy sky was created by using the cloud/scalloped Basic Border dies as a mask (top die seen above). She also used the Give it a Whirl dies seen here for the stitched cloud die-cuts; they're just $19.50 and were $39. The 'Sending' die-cut greeting is from the Sending dies seen here.  They're also on sale for $19.80.

Look at these Sweet Thoughts Memories & More card – Fast & Fabulous!

April 15, 2024

Do you ever want to craft & create but don't have enough time to get out multiple supplies and think up ideas? Time should never stop you from creating!

I made a few of these cards on last week's Live video and afterwards made more; all in just a few minutes!

Save

I didn't need any inks or stamps; I used the greetings in the card pack. So fast!

I used the Sweet Thoughts card pack seen here; it's 40% off right now. And the cards & envelopes are also on sale. See them here.

There are times you need to make quick, easy cards just to get your creative fix!

Save

I did use a paper trimmer to cut some of the cards into pieces. For instance notice the colorful striped edges on a few of the cards. Those are all from one M & More card; I cut it into 3 pieces.

Who wouldn't love to give or receive these pretty cards?!

Save

I used just half a package of these beautiful cards to make these 15 full cards.  These Memories & More cards in the pack are discounted right now in the Last Chance list. They're now $6 instead of $10. See them here.

Save

The photo of the cards above does not do them justice! Check out the stack on the above left. The package includes 6 sheets of adhesive die-cuts that are fun to embellish with.

You can use these for cards OR scrapbooking. I shared my Sweet Thoughts scrapbook pages on Friday's post; see it here. Click here to see my pre-cut scrapbook kit (or tutorial) in my Shop.

Save

You can see the envelopes behind these cards. They are included in the cards & envelopes pack seen here. They're larger than our standard cards – finished size is 6 1/4" X 4 1/4" and are also discounted to $8 instead of $10.

Save

I did add Iridescent Pearls and a few ribbons to these cards. Not necessary but always fun to embellish!

Save

I hope you don't let time stop you from crafting. Add a few of these Memories & More cards or a kit from our Kit Collection for those times you want to create easily without much 'work'.
