MONDAYS ARE MY MEMORYKEEPING DAYS

This week I am featuring the Boho Vibes Suite Collection (165156).

Today I have selected one of the Boho Vibes 6″x 6″ Designer Series Paper designs for my scrapbook layout.

I took four of these DSP squares and cut them in half. By alternating the halves I was able to create this design.

Then I used the Cloud Cover and Secret Sea striped DSP to create a diamond shaped backing for the photograph mat.

The new Party Alphabet Dies are perfect for scrapbook layouts. I placed Adhesive Sheet behind the Secret Sea card before die cutting the title.

The Daffodil Delight Two-tone card is a great summery colour and gives the layout a bright vibe.

On the second page I rotated the curved arches DSP to give a vertical look.

This is a super, simple layout where the DSP does all the hard work.

Tomorrow I have some cards to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

NO FUN FOLD CARD THIS FRIDAY

Although my Fridays are normally spent sharing Fun Fold cards, today I have the last eight cards that I made for my card gift box.

First let me share four birthday cards with you.

I have used the uneven number rule for all of these birthday cards.

I’m keeping the bicycle birthday card to give to my brother later this month – he’s turning 55!

The last four cards that are going into the gift box are Christmas cards.

The Christmas puddings are so cute!

Real Red is always a great colour for Christmas projects.

The holly wreath was created after colouring 7 sprigs and then placing them on a 1 7/8″ circle. The new circle punch is a great addition to the collection.

The background, for the baubles card, was made by adhering many of the snowflake shapes to the white card base. Then the Misty Moonlight banner was added using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I used the Hole Punch Assortment (165409) to punch the small hole in the three baubles. This allowed me to thread some white twine through them to create this look.

And, there you have it – a thank you gift box filled with cards for most occasions.

This week has been so much fun. It is so quick and easy to create lots and lots of cards when you use the Ephemera Packs,

I hope that you add some to your crafting stash.

Next week I will have something new to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

TODAY IS 3D THURSDAY

This week I always knew that I wanted to create a super large gift box to hold 20+ cards and envelopes.

The finished box measures 6 7/8″x 4 3/4″ and is 5″ deep.

After designing the pattern for this box and then cutting and assembling it, I then added card panels inside each area of the box to give it greater sturdiness and stability.

Once I had finsihed the gift box structure I then added Misty Moonlight card panels on the exterior areas of the gift box. This added colour and stability.

I wrapped a very long length of the Misty Moonlight Silver Edged Ribbon around the box, securing it to the front of the box.

The Misty Moonlight panel, on the top of the box, was then secured over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This top panel then had many of the ephemera elements attached to it.

‘Thanks’ was the chosen greeting because I think this box of cards would make an amzing gift to thank someone for what they have done.

When this large gift box is opened, there are two sections holding cards that have covering panels to hold everything in place.

When the covering panels are removed, the cards are revealed.

Tomorrow I will show you the final cards that were made.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
