Spooky Halloween Gift Box Tutorial

Posted on by

Today I’ll be sharing with you a fun little gift box that is perfect for filling with a little something special this Halloween. I just love the little animals in this set, so I’ve whipped this box up for a friend who loves both Halloween and cats!

This box is self closing and opens up with a quick and easy tug on the ribbon and tuck in sentiment. It includes not only a little treat but a fun little sentiment underneath.

Want see how I created this little gift box? I’ve made both a PDF and video tutorial for you so you can make some too!

Celebrate Today with Artistic Leaves

Posted on by

Do you have a harder time creating masculine cards? If so today’s card might be just the thing you need for a upcoming birthday. Using the Artistic Leaves stamp set  (Online Exclusive 166162)

and a bit of the Country Woods Designer Series Paper (163393) I think this card is perfect for a guy in your life celebrating their birthday or a special event.

What do you think?

This card feels like it has a lot of texture to it too. The simple stamping and a torn edge technique used for the bottom edge Secret Sea Card stock and Designer Series Paper is a quick and simple way to add texture to any project. The Spotlight on Nature Dies (163580) and Stylish Shapes Dies (Online Exclusive 159183) add a bit more along with the ribbon and 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls (165192) that add a bit of shine too.

Can you see this as a wonderful card to send the men in your life this fall? Change out the colors and sentiments and you’ve got a great autumn card too! Or use green tones for a fun summer card for someone who loves nature!

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing another fun tutorial with you!

We’ve had some cooler days and nights here in North Georgia this past week and as the weather begins to change it makes me think of the upcoming season change, football, and fall holidays. How about you? With the start of school it’s never far off. So today I thought I’d share with you a little treat I whipped up for Halloween.

I’ve used the Spooky Sweet Suite (Online Exclusive 166205) since it is filled with fun images and products that are great for creating treats with.

You’ll love these whimsical cat and dog images along with the punch outs found in the Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper (Online Exclusive 166191) to make projects with.

Check out this full little post it note holder I made that is perfect for those who are young at heart in your life to celebrate Halloween.

The fun little Shimmer Star Foam Stickers (Online Exclusive 166202) that are part of this suite give it a nice pop of shine – make sure to pick up a couple of packages since I think they will go fast as I can see using the white ones for Christmas too!

Open the Holder and find a spot to write a special note and color coordinating pad of Post it Notes!

Hugs & Healing Dutch Door Card Video Tutorial

Posted on by

Today’s post is going to be quick since I’m in the middle of my annual consignment sale this morning.

This week’s tutorial uses the Hugs & Healing stamp set (Last Chance Online Exclusive 165518). If you’re an animal lover or have family and friends who are this set is a great one to add to your collection.

Today’s card is a fun fold called a Dutch Door fold since it shows off the Designer Series Paper no the inside of the card and when you open it you’ll see your sentiment on the bottom of the inside.

Want to see how I created this card? I’ve made a quick tutorial for you.

Bee My Valentine

Posted on by

Last Thursday I shared with you a wonderful thank you card using the Bee My Valentine stamp set (162457). Today I thought I’d share some cards that use some untraditional colors to send a love message.

Our first card today is a monochromatic one done in the color, Darling Ducking which is one of our 2025-2027 In Colors and uses a fun fold.

It uses simple stamping and a couple of score lines 2 3/4″ from each end to create a lovely card making it perfect for someone just starting out building their supplies.

This next card also uses the set but takes it a different direction

with a fun easel card. Done in Crushed Curry, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.

The background for this easel card has been stepped up with the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder (164695) and some fussy cutting. Once again the lovely 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls (165192) have been used to add a bit of shine.

And finally this lovely Floating Vertical Bandstand Pop Up Card done in Lemon Lolly and Poppy Parade.

This card folds down flat for mailing. And isn’t the little thought bubble cute? It is actually the same punch being used for the body of the bee. The Lemon Lolly panels have been dry embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (161600) to add some texture and the Drusty Embellishments (164223) not only add shine but some wonderful texture too.

So what do you think? Like traditional colors and the non traditional colors used here? Don’t you like how color can change the whole feel of a card and make something feel so different.

Hugs & Healing Card Tutorial

Posted on by

Today’s card uses our 2024-2026 In Color Peach Pie, a soft lovely color and the Designer Series Paper shows it off well.

The 2024-2026 In Color Designer Series Paper (163777) has four beautiful patterns that all can be seen on this card and create a soft background for our little kitten. A bit of texture has been added to the background on this quick and easy card using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder (164049).

Want to see how this card was created? I’ve got a quick video tutorial for you today.

And of course a PDF with step by step instructions and supply list you’ll need
