8 Cards from one sheet of Fresh As A Daisy

We have many Designer Series Paper packs that are 15% off this month.  Today I am featuring one sheet from Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper. All of the cards use Something Fancy Stamp Set and Something Fancy Dies.  They are excellent dies for greetings. 

This sheet has so many great designs on it that makes card designing easy!

Moody Mauve and Peppled Path were used for this first card. They are both new In Colors.

Peppled Path

4 1/4 x 3 1/4 and 3 1/4 x 2 1/4

 

The next card uses Crushed Curry for the card base.

 

I cut the Curry Striped piece of designer series paper at 1 1/2"  The othe 1 1/4 strip you will use on another card.

White embossed piece is 5" x 3 3/4

 

The third card uses Wild Wheat and Pretty Peacock.

The next card uses Early Espresso and Wild Wheat. Isn't this a great simple card?

Boho Blue is used on this card.  It is another new In Color.

White strip is 1/2"

Boho Blue Piece is 1" x 1 1/2

 

This piece of designer series paper could be used for many things.  I used Wild Wheat with it. 

This is one of my favorite cards.  Garden Green is the card base.

This is the card you use the other part of the Curry striped piece,  This on is 1 1/4" wide.

Score Garden Green piece at 5 1/2" and 6 7/8"

This final card uses Boho Blue.

White piece is 4" x 3"

Misty Moonlight is 5 1/2" x 3 3/4"

 

On this video, I give tips on how to easily cut this to get it ready to make cards.

Cake Fancy card ideas

Cake Fancy is a stamp set from our mini catalog.  I wanted to come up with a couple cards that look completely different to show the versatility of the set.  All of the cards I have seen using this set are more femine, and so I wanted to make one that is more masculine.  This is what I came up with. 

I embossed the Pebbled Path piece using our Basics Embossing Folder 3 pack.  I use Modern Oval punch to stamp the candles on, and then punched a second one in the center of the Misty Moonlight piece. You won't see the oval in the middle since you put the designer series paper over it. 

When assembling the card, I put the Misty Moonlight oval horizontally and then the White one vertically attached with dimensionals.

 

Dimensions

Pebbled Path card stock 161722 $10 4” x 5 ½”

Basic White card stock 159276 $10.50 scrap and 3 ¼” x 4 ¼”

Softly Stippled Free SAB item 162975 2 ¾” x 3 ¾”

For the second card I wanted to make a Spring like card, so this is what I created. 

I stamped the flowers on a scrap and cut out the flowers. 

The images in this set are easy to line up, so it makes creating a several layer cake easy!

Alphabest Baby Cards

 

I have had 3 baby showers in the last 2 weeks.  I don't have much for baby stamps right now so I decided to spell out BABY with the Alphabest Stamp set and used the Best Label punch to punch it out. 

 

 

Tomorrow is a shower for a baby boy, so this is the card I made for it.

I used Delightfully Eclectic 12x12 designer series paper for both of the cards. It is a fun pack of 24 sheets.  There are so many different designs, even a sheet with pretzels on it!  Right now it has been added as a Sale A Bration choice free with a $50 order.  This is a fantastic deal since it is a large pack of designer series paper!

 

Measurements:

Card base- 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

White Piece 5 1/4" x 4"

Designer Series Paper 5" x 3 3/4"

Embossed piece 4" x 1 1/4"

 

Below are all the items I used to make the cards.  I hope you get time to create soon!

Patchwork Pieces Valentine

 

Most Adored is a great pack of 12x12 designer series paper that is FREE with a $50 order during Sale -A-Bration while supplies last.  One side has Gold foil elements to it. 

I wanted to create a Valentine showing off the fun designer series paper so I used Patchwork Pieces Dies.

I cut 6 designs of designer series paper 3 3/4" x 5" and then  I die cut each one.  After I die cut one, I put a 1/4 sheet of card stock under it so I could move it and keep those pieces together.  I repeated this for the other 5 designs.  Once I had the 6 different designs cut, I was able to make 6 cards from all of those pieces. Each card looked a little different since the pieces were in different orders. 

 

 

For the hearts, I used Hooray for Surprises bundle.  The Heart with the dots had two steps.  First I die cut holes in the shape of the heart, and then I used the solid heart die to cut it out. 

 

I made the video below to show how to make the card. 

 

Card Base is Real Red 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"

White piece 5" x 3 3/4"  cut 2  One for the inside and one for front of the card.

DSP started at 5" x 3 3/4"

How to make a card tote using one piece of card stock.

I haven't made a card tote in years, but when I saw the Flight and Airy designer series paper, I thought it would make a cute set of cards to give as a gift. The Flight and Airy Designer Series Paper is free right now with $50 orders until the end of February, or while supplies last.  Which ever happens first. 

I love all the different pieces of designer series paper. I used both Flirty Flamingo and Boho Blue card stock.

This card tote and cards make a great little gift. Perfect for when someone invites you over, or if you want a quick gift for a friend.

For the tote:
Score 8 1/2 x 11
Score vertically 1 1/4” and 7 1/4”
Score Horizontally 4 1/2” and 6 1/2”.

Cut in the score lines at 4 1/2 and 6 1/2 until you reach the 1 1/4” score line.

Designer Series Paper: 2 pieces of 4 1/2" x 3" One for each side.
Ribbon 18" for each handle.

For the Cards:
Card Base 5 1/2 x 5 1/2". Score at 1 1/4"
Emboss 5 1/2 x 1 1/4" strip.
Designer Series Paper 4" x 5 1/4"

Basic White piece for the inside 5" x 3 3/4"

 

I made a video showing how to make them. If you have not subscribed to my YouTube channel do it today!  I have been making several videos lately, so check them out!

How to Use Scraps to Make a Card

If you are like me, you have a huge scrap pile of Designer Series Paper pieces.  This quick card design uses 3" x 1" strips to make a cute card. 

Looking at the Designer Series Paper, I chose to use Lost Lagoon and Pool Party for the card stock.  I added texture embossing the pool party piece with Timeworn Type embossing folder.  I use this one A LOT!   It creates such a nice subtle background. 

 

So Sincere is a new greeting set that has been out on my table since I got it.  It has some great greeting choices.

 

The video below shows me making this card.

Tips for Patchwork Pieces Dies

I ordered the Patchwork Pieces died, but didn't use them right away thinking it would be hard to line up.  That is not the case at all!  This is the first card I made using them and it came together so easily! 

Which color do you like the greeting on better?  Basic White or Lemon Lolly? 

 

I made a video with a quick tip on how to easily assemble the card.
