Gettin’ Punchy with the Fun Cut Pattern Cards

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Are you ready for some more fun cards? I’m getting punchy with the Fun Cut pattern and Dandy Designs paper I shared with you yesterday. I thought I’d share some cute cards you can recreate right away by using punches you have in your stamp room. I also added the Organdy Glitter ribbon and Iridescent Rhinestones.

Let’s take a look! Today I’m using the paper with with the Fresh Freesia and the Petal Pink. We’ll start out with the Heart Punch Pack. I punched the solid heart from the designer paper and the Scalloped Heart in Basic White cardstock.

So you’ll see the same layouts as yesterday, just my new colors and I’m highlighting the Peaceful Moments stamp set … I’m using this for my greetings on all 4 of the cards. Here you will also see the Stitched with Whimsy dies which adds texture and this cute pattern of stitching which really frames your greeting. Both the greeting and the hearts are popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

My second card features the Label Me Lovely punch …

This sweet and simple card also showcase a bit of bling with the Iridescent Rhinestones and White Organdy Glitter Ribbon … WOW these go together really nicely! I tied my bow “first” and then attached it to the ribbon with a Mini Glue Dot.

The third card … there she is, our Medium Daisy Punch!

Once you get your Dandy Designs paper cut and laid out onto your card mat, you can really whip out a whole stack of cards. I just added a simple banner with my Daisy and then added a few Iridescent Rhinestones.

For my last card I kept it really simple, and sorry, but on punch …

Again I brought in the Stitched Whimsy Dies, Organdy Glitter Ribbon and Iridescent Rhinestones. This pattern, a great sentiment set and a few items you have in your stamp room will create wonderful cards to share and bring joy to a friend or family member.

I want to thank you for joining me today. Have an awesome Thursday …

the weekend is almost here!

Dainty Delight Makes the Perfect Gift Card Holder …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m going to show you what I did with the last piece of the Dainty Flowers designer paper to create the Perfect Gift Card Holder. Great for Birthdays, Graduations, Thank You’s and more. Isn’t this just the cutest?

You start with a half sheet of cardstock measuring 11″ x 8-1/2″ … score at 2″ and 5-1/2″. The 5-1/2″ score it to fold your card in half, the 2″ section gets a piece punched out of it and then it’s tucked under to create the pocket for your Gift Card. I used Tear & Tape Adhesive along the edges to secure it.

I used a piece of 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of Dainty Flowers for the inside … the right side will be exposed when the card is closed. The Label Me Lovely Punched was used to punch the piece out of the pocket and for my sentiment.

I created an area for you to write in … the Basic White measures 3″ x 4″ and the Mango Melody mat is 3-1/8″ x 4-1/8″…. and you won’t be able to see it while the front is closed so your message is safe! lol

The front Mango Melody piece used to mat the designer paper measures3-3/8″ x 4-1/8″, making the Dainty Flowers designer paper 3-1/2″ x 4″. I used Framed Florets for my sentiment on the front and punched it with the Label Me Lovely punch. The Mango was punched and then cut in half and then adhered to the top half and bottom half (see the split on this back view).

Those pretty flowers sure can make an adorable card to wish someone a happy birthday and tuck a little something in there for them to treat themselves.

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope these sharing these cards with the beautiful Dainty Flowers Designer papers has inspired you pick a pack up for yourself.

Have a wonderful Monday ~

Simply Sunday: A Little More Sparkle

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I have a quick & easy and very pretty Christmas card that will add a Little More Sparkle and Shine into the lives of your friends and family when they receive this handmade card from you this holiday season.

Just some cardstock, the beautiful Snowflake Specialty Vellum, the Very Best Occasions stamp set, a punch and your ink (oh yes, I also used the new Metallic Woven Ribbon) and you can create a stack of beautiful cards.

Let’s being with the stunning Snowflake Specialty Vellum ….

You’ll add a touch of elegance to your winter crafts and creations with the Snowflake 12″ x 12″ Specialty Vellum. This unique paper includes three different snowflake designs in white vellum and iridescent foil—that’s six different papers to get creative with!

We got that professional touch with ease by layering the snowflake vellum on our Night of Navy card front and backed by the Basic White so that the iridescent snowflakes were the highlight of the card …

The sentiment is so fun and fitting for the times, and is perfect for our handmade cards!! If you do not have this amazing stamp set in your collection, you are going to want to add it before it goes away!

If you’re looking for a stamp set that has heartfelt sentiments for just about everything, then you need the Very Best Occasions Stamp Set. These 12 versatile sentiments celebrate the Christmas season, express gratitude for family and friendships, share positive and uplifting messages, and so much more. Whether you need a simple, “With Comfort & Love,” or an upbeat, “You’re the best ever!” this stamp set has you covered.

My sentiment is stamped in the coordinating Night of Navy to match my cardbase and punched out with one of my favorites … the Label Me Lovely punch. Add some adhesive to the back and then create a little whimsy and texture by running the Metallic Ribbon back and forth before mounting it onto your card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Quick … Sparkly … and easy to recreate for your friends and family. I hope you enjoyed today’s card sample … the holiday season can be stressful, I don’t want your cardmaking to be.

I ❤ Simple & Beautiful. Thank you for joining me today.
