Slim Line card using Freezin’ Fun Bundle and In Good Taste DSP


 Welcome to my blog. It’s been a while since I last posted. Been busy with Thanksgiving, craft fair and agility trial. I’ve been trying Slim Line cards they are fun and easy to make. I like them because you have more surface to decorate and can be mailed in a regular envelope. The card above I used a die set I have to make the card base. If you don’t have a die you still can make one. Here are the directions:
- Use cardstock 7 x 8-1/2 in color of your choice ( I used Balmy Blue) for the card base. Score at 3-1/2
- Layering piece I used is In Good Taste DSP cut at 8-1/4 x 3-1/4. The top layering piece is Night of Navy cardstock the same size. Use your layering square and rectangles to cut out the openings.
- I stamped colored and die cut the images from Feezin’Fun bundle. I adhered them to the front.
You can buy this fun bundle from my website. Remember to use the Host Code 6GM3BS9Jfor orders less than 150$.

Cocoa Card using Snow Wonder Bundle with Snowflake Splendor DSP


 Welcome to my blog. Have one and only craft fair of the year coming up on the 28th so I have been waiting on projects for it. I will be sharing them with you. These are not only for craft fairs but can be used as stocking stuffers, presents, teacher gifts etc. This first project is a Cocoa Card. I have made cocoa pouches for all my craft fairs and they have been good sellers. I found this one on YouTube by Tina Hutton from Close to my Heart. I thought they were neat so decided to make them this year for the craft fair.
Materials and Directions 
- I started with a 5-1/2 by 4-1/4 card base in Pacific Point. On one side I cut putting the fold and the opposite corner on 1 inch . See photo. I then used tear and tape to glue bottom to make the pocket.

- The DSP layer is a piece 5-1/4 x 4. I cut this by putting both corners at 3/4 inch . See photo. I then glued to front of the card. I stamped the sentiments as in photo. The sentiments are from the Freezin’ Fun stamp set.

- The snowman I stamped on Whisper White cardstock, colored and cut out using the die set. I glued to front. I added some glitter at base of snowman.

You can by the products on my website.

Z fold card using Snow Wonder bundle, Moose Punch and Tis The Season DSP

 




Welcome to my blog. Z fold cards are a fun fold that makes your card bigger but folds to fit in a regular envelope. For this card I combined several products from the Mini Catalog. The Snow Wonder bundle, Tis the Season DSP and the Moose Punch.
Materials and Directions 
- Start with a piece of cardstock 4-1/4 x 11( I used a garden Green) score @ 2-3/4 & 5-1/2. Fold on score line with the smaller side folded opposite of larger.

- Layers- The front layer is a piece of Tis The Season DSP 2-1/2x 4. The small inside layer is a piece of Whisper White 2-1/2 x 4. I used the snowflake stamp to decorate. This piece is for writing a message.
The large inside layer is a piece of Whisper White 5-1/4 x 4. On this piece I stamped some clouds using Balmy Blue. I then used a piece of white glitter paper for the snow. Using a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the trees Just Jade ink. I then die cut them out using the dies from the bundle. I glued them to the paper as in the photo.

- I punched a 2 inch circle out of CrumbCake and punched the moose out of Early Espresso. I adhered the moose to the circle and attached to card as in the photo.
You can purchase the products I used from my website.
