Mini cards with Carried Away DSP, Stampin’ Up!

2017 Occasions catalog, 2017 Sale A Bration, DSP Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold cards, One Sheet Wonder, Stampin' Up, Thinlits

 

Hi Stampers! These cards are so very fun to make! It’s like getting a two for one deal, because you can create so many, so quickly!

I hope you will forgive the shortness of this post….we are headed off on a little break, and I wanted to get one more post done for you, but I didn’t have a whole lot of time 🙂

You can make two tall, or two short cards, or four of both! They are super easy, and I can see a whole lot of these in my future. I also would love to see what you create. Will you send me some photos?

This is my one year anniversary as a blogger by the way! SO…….

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US 😉

’cause I wouldn’t be doing this if it weren’t for you all! So thanks for sticking by me, and I promise to make this a fun, and crafty journey .

Ok, the cards  will vary depending on your choice of style. I will outline both, and you choose your fav.

Tall Card:

4 1/4″ by 11″ base of Thick Whisper White, score at 5 1/2″, then cut in half at 2 1/8″.

DSP layer measures 2″ by 5 2/8″, just add with some snail, and add the balloons with a dimensional, add clouds if you wish. Stamp your sentiment in Night of Navy, flag the end and add with snail or mini glue dots.

Wide Card:

5 1/2″ by 8 1/2″, score at 4 1/4″, then cut in half at 2 6/8″.

DSP layer measures 2 1/2″ by 4″, again add with snail, and add a few dimensionals to the Night of Navy balloon, and attach. Add clouds if desired. Stamp your sentiment in Night of Navy ink and add with mini glue dots.

BOOM! Easy! Done, and this is such a fun, and simple card to make your own.

You can use a regular envelope to mail this since the clouds hang off, but the envelope is large enough to hold them in place.

Make sure to check out the video for a few extra tips and ideas!

Until next time…….

Stay Crafty!

July 4th card, Stampin’ Up

NEW 2016-17 Stampin' Up Catalog, Regals Collection, Stampin' Up, Thinlits

Hi stampers!! It’s almost that time: cookouts, fireworks, parades…..I really love the Americana of the 4th of July. Makes me feel so proud to live where we are F R E E to be what and whomever we want to be ! Honestly, whenever I create or think about a 4th card, I cannot but help sing patriotic songs in my head…..Does that happen to anyone else?!?

 

I have had this idea in my head for several months now……I really fell in love with the Lucky Stars embossing folder, so much so, that I really wracked my brains on how to make it into a flag card!!! I will spare you all of my sad reject cards, BUT then I saw the new Swirly Scribbles Thinlits. Like a bolt out of the blue, it hit me. I could actually make it into a “Flag Card”. So I positioned the Lucky Stars folder on the top corner of the Whisper White card stock, went over it in Night of Navy, then added Real Red “stripes” from the Swirly Scribbles set. SO DARN CUTE!! I also used the Bunch of Banners framelits, which I stamped in Night of Navy as well, then hand wrote in the “America the Beautiful” words. It really turned out so much more beautiful than it was in my head. I added some White Chalk marker to the debossed stars, and topped them with a little Wink of Stella.

Hope card for Breast Cancer Awareness, Stampin’ Up

Brights Collection, NEW 2016-17 Stampin' Up Catalog, Soft Subtles, Stampin' Up, Thinlits

Hi Stamping friends……and you crafty types too 😉 I am so sorry this post never went through :/ I usually plan so when I post a video, I do a blog post as well to give you all the supplies and measurements. Somehow this one slipped by me….

So, I thought that this would make a FANTASTIC  Breast Cancer Awareness card as soon as I saw the “HOPE” thinlit. And, naturally the Blushing Bride card stock is exactly the right shade of pink to bring it to life. Of course, I then decided that Melon Mambo would give such a wonderful pop of pink contrast, that I just couldn’t hold myself back 🙂

If there is a more wonderful cause, that truly unites women together to R O A R, I simply have not found it. There are so many survivors to celebrate, so many loved ones to honor and praise for the good fight they fought, so many young ones to educate. There is only one way to get the word out there: TALK. Talk about prevention, share your story, or that of a loved one, who can no longer spread the word. Be the friend someone may need to get the courage to get checked out. There is so much silence, because people are embarrassed, ashamed they waited so long, afraid they will have no support, scared that what they  fear will come true. The only way to help this go away, is to BE. Just be there for your friend, mother, sister in law, best friend, aunt, cousin. Maybe it’s a ride, a connection to get an appointment, or just an ear: to listen, not judge and be a shoulder to cry on. I hope this will inspire you, to DO just one thing to help another woman…….One less woman, we will have to lose before her time.

 

Until next time my friends…… Stay Crafty.
