Learn to Make a Daisy Lane Window Card

The spring weather here in Kansas City has me wanting to plant some flowers in the worst way! Our weather is very sneaky as it has been known to snow in April so I’m holding off. Our rule-of-thumb is to wait until Mother’s Day to plant and it cannot get here soon enough!

Just because we’re prevented from exercising our green thumbs doesn’t mean we can’t make something to scratch that itch though. Today, during my regular Wednesday Coffee & a Card Facebook Live we made this fun window card.

To make the card I die-cut a frame using the Stitched Rectangle Dies from Stampin’ Up! then popped it up on the card front to create the “window”. Next, I used the Daisy Lane stamp set and coordinating Medium Daisy Punch to make the stem of daisies growing from the window.

Cutting/Scoring Guide

Card Base = 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Basic White Thick cardstock scored at 4-1/4″ on the 8-1/2″ side
First Layer = 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of 2020-2022 In-Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
Second Layer = 4″ x 2-1/2″ piece of 2020-2022 In-Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper
Stitched Die-Cut Frame = 5″ x 3-3/4″ piece of Bumblebee cardstock
Stamped Images = 6-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock
Sentiment Tag = scrap

Make a Hydrangea Hill Fancy-Fold Window Card

If you are a lover of hydrangeas like I am you will enjoy the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up! The paper is jam-packed full of beautiful blooms in all our favorite springtime colors.

I used one of my favorite prints from the paper pack for a fancy-fold window card that I was dying to make.

I think my favorite part of this card are the vellum petals with pastel pearl centers on the front of the card. To make the petals, I colored vellum with Highland Heather and Rococo Rose Stampin’ Blend Markers then punched the petals out using the Small Bloom Punch.

The Hydrangea Hill fancy fold window card is like having two cards in one because when you open the card front . . . surprise, there’s a z-fold card found inside. This card is one that I will be making more of.

Cutting/Scoring Guide

Card Base = 8-1/2” x 5-1/2” piece of Basic White cardstock; score at 4-1/4” on 8-1/2” side
First Layer = 5-1/4” x 4” piece of Highland Heather cardstock
Second Layer = 5-1/8” x 3-7/8” piece of Hydrangea Hill DSP
Inside z-fold layer = 8-1/2” x 5-1/4” piece of Highland Heather scored at 4” and 6’-1/4” on the 8-1/2” side
Stamped circle = 2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
Scallop frame = 2-1/2” x 2-1/2” piece of Highland Heather cardstock
Scallop circle = 2-1/2” 2-1/2” piece of Rococo Rose cardstock
Punched blooms = scrap of Vellum

Butterfly Brilliance Springtime Treat Bag Toppers

I try hard to demonstrate 3-dimensional paper crafting projects during my Make-it-Monday Facebook Live episodes and this week I showed viewers how to create these sweet Butterfly Brilliance Springtime Treat Bag Toppers:

To begin my project I knew I wanted to use bright colors. I ended up choosing Magenta Madness, Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green ink colors from Stampin’ Up! for my stamped images.

The bags I used for the toppers are 3″ x 6″ Printed Gusseted Cellophane Bags. They are food safe and are the perfect size to slip small treats into for party favors.

The images on the treat bag topper are from the Field of Flowers and Butterfly Brilliance stamp sets and I used “Oh happy day!” from the Many Messages stamp set for the sentiment. Each of these stamp sets have coordinating dies or a punch – see the Supply List below for those options.

I used a Magenta Madness and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Write Marker to stamp the flowers onto the tag and I tied a little bow using 1/4″ Bumblebee Ribbon onto the handle.

Video Tutorial

I created my topper to fit a 3″ wide bag but you can easily adjust the size of your card stock to fit any size bag. Watch this video for all the nitty-gritty details on how to make your own Treat Bag Topper.

Make a St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Treat Basket

Do you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Isn’t there a saying that everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day? Because I’m always looking for something to celebrate I decided to do something for the luck of the Irish this week!

Nothing says, “Irish” like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow as well as shamrocks. With that in mind I made this cute St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Treat Basket during my Make-it-Monday Facebook Live today.

When I first envisioned making this project I thought of making the basket using Basic Black card stock creating a “pot of gold” at the end of the rainbow. But because it’s been pretty dreary here I wanted to use some color and ended up choosing Shaded Spruce card stock for the basket instead.

Paper Cutting Guide:

Basket = 6″ x 6″ piece of Shaded Spruce cardstock
Scallop Circle Die-Cut = 3″ x 3″ Balmy Blue cardstock
Rainbow = scraps of Poppy Parade, Melon Mambo, Petal Pink, Gorgeous Grape, Daffodil Delight and Pacific Point cardstock
Shamrock = scrap of Granny Apple Green cardstock
Cloud = scrap of Basic White cardstock

Cutting & Scoring Guide:

Itty Bitty Greetings Cling-Mount Stamp Set	Shaded Spruce Classic Stampin' Pad	Shaded Spruce 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Balmy Blue 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Don’t forget that you can make this basket for many occasions such as May Day and Mother’s Day.

How to Make Your Own Mini Easter Basket using Cardstock

We’ll be celebrating Easter in just over a month. I’m so happy that Winter is on the way out and Spring is on the way in! One of my favorite ways to celebrate Easter is by creating Easter Baskets. You are going to want to make your own Easter Basket when you find out how easy this one is to make:

The basket measures 2″ x 2″ and reminds me of a berry basket. I used Gorgeous Grape cardstock for the base of the basket and embellished it with strips of Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!

The sentiment for the tag was stamped onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock then cut out with a die from the Stitched Shapes Dies. The stitched oval die-cut was adhered to a scallop oval die-cut using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I felt that the basket needed something “extra” and at the last minute added two Butterfly Gems to the tag. The sweet little resin butterflies in Purple Posey were just right for this project.

Cutting & Scoring

Basket Base = 6” x 6” piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock scored at 1/2”, 2”, 4” and 5-1/2” on one side using the Simply Scored board, turn cardstock 45˚ and score at 1/2”, 2”, 4” and 5-1/2”

Basket Strips = 3” x 5” piece of Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper scored at 1-1/2” and 3-1/2” on the 5” side. Place Tear & Tape Adhesive on the top and bottom edges of 3” side. Cut into six 1/2” x 5” strips.

Basket Trim = 1/2” x 8-1/2” piece of Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper

Basket Handle = 1/2” x 6” piece of Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper

Basket Filler = crinkle several thin strips of Purple Posey cardstock.

Naturally Easter would be a great occasion to share these baskets but they would also make awesome party favors at bridal and baby showers as well as May Day baskets. Grab your supplies and start making your own Easter baskets now.

Make a Hey Birthday Chick Bridge Fold Cards

What’s better than one fantastic bundle? Two fantastic (coordinating) bundles! The Hey Chick Stamp Set (a 2017 Sale-A-Bration set) has returned and brought along three new friends: The Chick Dies and a brand-new bundle that includes the Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set and the Birthday Chick Dies. These playful images are so fun to stamp. You’ll love sending the punny cards you make to all your friends. Available 2 February–30 June 2021.

I made this bridge fold card during this week’s Make-it-Monday Facebook Live using the Hey Birthday Chick Bundle:

Bridge cards are 3-dimensional and can stand-up on their own yet fold to fit into a standard A2 size envelope. To make a bridge card similar to this one start with an 8″ x 4-1/4″ piece of cardstock. For my Hey Birthday Chick card I used a piece of Just Jade for the card base. Next you will need to create score lines on the 8″ side of the cardstock. See the diagram below for measurements.

Let’s Get Fancy with Bridge Fold Cards!

I had so much fun making the bridge card that I made another one using the Hey Birthday Chick Bundle. This one uses a die-cut for the bridge that I placed at the center of the card instead of the card base. I also added some embossing on the panels.

Bridge Card using Portrait Mode

The above cards are made in landscape mode but you can also create bridge cards in portrait mode as I have done here.

The measurements and scoring and different when making a bridge card in portrait mode. You begin with a 5-3/4″ x 5-1/2″ card base then score according to the diagram below.

I just love the Hey Chick Bundles by Stampin’ Up and have developed a weird relationship with the those cool chicks! I’ve already named the large hen Henny Penny, and for some reason I’m calling the cupcake chicken Wanda.

I know Henny Penny and Wanda would love to meet you too! Click on the images below to grab one or both of these bundles!

Wishes & Wonder Milk Carton Treat Box

The project I’m sharing today is this miniature milk carton treat box. I used products from the Wonder of the Season Suite by Stampin’ Up!

These little mini milk carton treat boxes are quick and easy to make and do not require any special tools. I did use my Simply Scored Tool because the project requires a lot of scoring but if you have a Paper Trimmer with a scoring blade you can make this box.

I embellished the box using the ‘Tis the Season 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper which is included in the Giant Year-End Closeout and is discounted while supplies last.

The tag I made for the Wishes & Wonder Milk Carton Treat Box does require a die-cutting machine. I used the Wishes & Wonder stamp set and the North Pole Wonder Dies for the tag.

I ran a length of Real Red Braided Linen Trim thru the tag and clipped it to the top of the box along with a Glitter Star Ornament using a mini silver clothespin.

Scoring Guide: Start with an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock.

Score at 2″, 4″, 6″ and 8″ on the 8-1/2″ side of card stock.
Score at 1/2″, 2″ and 4″ on the 5-1/2″ side of card stock.
Score at 1-1/2″ and 5-1/2″ on the top of 1/2″ tab of carton.
Score two diagonal lines per the diagram below.
Trim on red score lines.

Here is the replay of today’s Facebook Live where I demonstrated how to assemble the box:

Make a Christmas Gleaming Fancy Fold Card

Today’s project is a traditional style Christmas card with a fun little fold. I used returning favorites from last year to make this Christmas Gleaming fun fold card.

The Christmas Gleaming Variety Bundle from Stampin’ Up! includes the Christmas Gleaming stamp set, the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack and the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper. Each of the elements can be purchased separately but there is a 10% savings when they are purchased as a bundle.

The card base for my project today is not your traditional A2 card. A smaller, 4-1/4″ x 3-1/8″ card is adhered to a a single piece of 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ base. I layered my base with a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock.

Watch this video replay of today’s Coffee & a Card Facebook Live to see how I assembled this card:

One of my guests said during today’s Facebook Live, “It looks complicated but not really too hard”. She’s right, it is a great card to make when you want to make a good impression but don’t have a lot of time for complicated. And the images in the Christmas Gleaming stamp are awesome traditional images. It will be a set you’ll keep and use year after year.

Poinsettia Petals Ghirardelli Chocolate Box

Today I’m sharing this sweet little box that is just the right size to hold two Ghirardelli chocolate squares. It would probably work for other mini candy bars and for sure a pair of earrings!

These boxes would be so fun to place at each place setting at your holiday dinner or as favors for your friends and coworkers. There is some scoring and cutting involved to create the miniature box but overall it is a pretty easy project to make.

Refer to above photo to create your Poinsettia Petals Ghirardelli Chocolate Box. Score a 5″ x 7″ piece of cardstock at 1-1/2” and 3-1/2” on the 5” side. Score at 2”, 3-1/8”, 3-7/8” and 5” on the 7” side. Fold on score lines then cut along the score lines referenced in black which will remove the four outer rectangular panels.

Winter Woods Christmas Card

Doesn’t this card make you want to put on your favorite flannel shirt and sit around a fire-pit roasting marshmallows and drinking hot cocoa? The buffalo check background gives this card it’s ambiance.

The Buffalo Check background stamp from Stampin’ Up! is an old favorite of mine. I stamped it onto a stitched rectangle die-cut piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink to make the background layer.

The textured tree die-cut was cut from Shimmery White cardstock using a die from the In the Woods Dies. The dies coordinate with the Winter Woods stamp set.

I also grabbed a snowflake image from the Freezin’ Fun stamp set and heat embossed snowflakes onto the black oval on the card front using White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I did the same with the sentiment.

Here is the replay of today’s Coffee & a Card Facebook Live where I demonstrated how to put this card together.

Product List

Buffalo Check Cling-Mount Stamp Set	Winter Woods Cling-Mount Stamp Set	Freezin' Fun Cling Stamp Set (English)	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad
Versamark Pad	Basic Black 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Shimmery White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock
Stamparatus	Stitched Rectangles Dies	Layering Ovals Dies	In The Woods Dies
Real Red 3/16" (4.8 Mm) Braided Linen Trim	Stampin' Seal	Mini Stampin' Dimensionals	Stampin' Dimensionals

Using different stamps with different patterns and colors can set the mood of a card. Today’s card is putting off a “cabin in the woods” kind of vibe. I hope it inspires you to think about the spirit you are trying to convey with your project.
