Check out this cute Christmas card we made at my October Card Clubs! It's a box fold card; a super cute but easy fun fold.
The colors are Real Red with Granny Apple Green & White. The dies on the front are the Stitched Shapes and Hippos & Friends.
It even folds flat for mailing! As you can see the back is similar to the front; leaving some space to write or sign the card.
I used the Gift Wrapped punch bundle from the Holiday catalog. You can see it here.
Check out the video and measurements below.
Here's the video:
Measurements:
Real Red 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", 7", 9" and 10 1/2" Granny Apple Green 3 5/8" X 4 7/8" (2 pieces) plus scrap for die-cut Whisper White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" (2 pieces) plus scrap for circle die-cut and bow
Look at these gorgeous sunflower cards! They were a big hit at my Card Clubs this month. They could chose between Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade and Calypso Coral ink for their sunflower.
We sponged each sunflower leaving the center without color except for a bit of Crumb Cake Blends marker. I know it might not be realistic but I like the pop of White in the center for brightness.
Then we used White Craft ink and Blender pens to highlight a few petals here and there on the sunflowers. It's super easy! I created a video below so you can see how it's done.
Measurements:
Crumb Cake card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scraps for die-cuts Whisper White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4", plus a 3 1/2" piece for sunflower Early Espresso 3 5/8" X 4 7/8" In Good Taste DSP 1 3/4" X 4 3/4"
Check out this fun diagonal fun-fold card! It features the Love of Leaves bundle and the Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper.
I used the colors in the designer paper; Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, Mint Macaron & Vanilla. Check out the measurements below:
I absolutely love the stitched details in the Stitched Leaves dies! They're amazing and really add to the finished project.

The colors are the new In Color Just Jade with Early Espresso & Real Red. See the tiny 'apples' on the tree? Well I wanted just a few apples from the large bokeh dots image. I have a surprising way of stamping just a few of the stamp image. I dare you to try it! Watch the video below to see what I did!
That pretty stitched shape is from the Celebration Label dies seen here. There are 5 sizes of this shape in the set!
I'm so happy with all of the projects people are making with this stamp set! It's been fun to see how much everyone seems to like it!

We made this CUTE card at my August Card Clubs with the Nothing's Better Than bundle seen here.
It's a triple flap gate-fold card! It's super easy to make and fun to open too. Check out the measurements AND the video below. Be sure to read the front AND the inside below. This stamp set is just plain FUN!
I chose to use Early Espresso with Coastal Cabana and Crushed Curry. To get a lighter hue for the chocolate and cookies images I stamped off the Early Espresso ink first. Is it just me or do some of these images remind you of the Jetsons cartoon show?
Measurements:
- Early Espresso 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end
- Whisper White 1 1/2" X 3 3/4" (3 pieces) plus scraps for added die-cut images
- Coastal Cabana & Crushed Curry 1 5/8" X 3 7/8" (3 total pieces)
The Nothing's Better Than stamp set has a set of dies to coordinate with it; get them both and get 10% off.

We made this eye-catching, birthday card at my July card clubs last month. It features the fun So Much Happy bundle.
I also used the Brights & In Color designer paper for the balloons and the Rainbow Glimmer paper for the pennant die-cut & bitty stars. They had a choice of Magenta Madness, Granny Apple Green or Coastal Cabana for their card. That cute White greeting die is from the Hippo & Friends dies.
The dies in this bundle especially caught my eye; I think they're super versatile! I just love the window the 'Happy' die creates! Click here to see it.
Check out the video below to see how this card is made.

This cute card starts out as a standard A2 card - 5 1/2" X 8 1/2". Adding just one extra score line creates this interactive, unique card!
I used the Pampered Pets stamp set and the Playful Pets designer paper. I colored the critters in with Blends markers and added a Playful Pets trinket with the Playful Pets trim and a glue dot. Sooo cute!
The scalloped White layer is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Real Red greeting is 1" X 4" and punched with the Lovely Labels PIck a Punch on both ends. Note the two different ends shown above.
The Happy Birthday greeting inside the left card is from the Best Year stamp set.

The Jar of Flowers bundle is pretty neat and easy to create wonderful cards with. We made these cards at my June card clubs. It was sooo great getting together with my gals again. North Dakota is open to events again but we are still being cautious too.
You can really see the details on the card in this close up view. That neat texture is the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. The colors are Misty Moonlight with Bumblebee and the In Good Taste designer paper.
There are sooo many wood, texture and patterns in this big pack of In Good Taste paper. It is amazing! Here's a good view of this paper.
Here's another version of the card using the jar and water image but the flowers are from the Tasteful Touches stamp set. This card was for those who didn't want to color. We added punched flowers using the Confetti Flowers Border punch seen here. After punching we added a dot of Navy ink for the centers.
For this fold all I did was trim off an inch from the card front and add a flap that is hidden by the strip of In Good Taste DSP. This flap is what the front panel is adhered to. Watch the video below!
The cards are finished off with a greeting from the Lovely You bundle - this is one of my favorite bundles! I love the Pick a Punch and the Lovely You stamp set is full of wonderful greetings.
Measurements:
Bumblebee card 5 1/2" X 7 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" In Good Taste DSP 1" X 5 1/2" White - front and inside 4 1/8" X 3", scrap for greeting is 1/2" wide Misty Moonlight 3 1/4" X 4 3/8", flap is 1 3/4" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"

The colors here are Gorgeous Grape, which is gorgeous!, Old Olive and Bermuda Bay. The pretty die is from the Tasteful Labels set of dies seen here.
This stamp set really makes you feel like an artist. These Distinktive stamps are absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough about how much I love them. Even when you stamp over the images it doesn't matter as they appear somewhat translucent.
