Katie's Cards

 I found this card on Pinterest that I thought would be fun to recreate, but it didn't have any information on how to make it, so I got to figure it out for myself! Here are the details: 1. Cut Crumb Cake to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score and fold at 4 1/4. 2. I used some old CTMH paper, Indian Corn Blue, for the next layer. Cut to 5 1/4 x 12. Score at 4, 6 1/2, 9, and 10 1/2. Fold accordion style. 3. I embossed the smallest fold with the tree bark embossing folder. 4. Layer the other two panels, 3 3/4 x 5 and 2 1/4 x 5.  5. Stamp and cut images. Adhere to front as desired. I really liked the style of this stamp set. It was fun to work with!

  I loved this layout I found on Pinterest and copied it, except changed out the sentiment. I was able to make 9 cards with one sheet of DSP! 

 I wanted to use some random vellum I had. I found some CS that worked well with the colors in the vellum. It was nice because the CS didn't have to match perfectly- it's actually better that it didn't so all the colors would show through!  Colored Cardstock: 5 1/4 x 4 Vellum: 5 x 3 3/4 Then I attached ribbon to the front of the card and added the sentiment from the Charming Sentiments stamp set and some die cut candles from the Charming Sentiments dies.  It turned out to be a cute, easy card!

 I'm thinking this will make a nice Valentine's Day card. I used SU Real Red and white cardstock. The stamp set is CTMH Just Because. This was a simple layout- I used an embossing folder to give the white some visual interest and then used 1 inch wide red strip for the middle. I added Wink of Stella to the vase and flowers. 

 I saw a beautiful card on Pinterest and wanted to recreate it. There weren't many details on how to make it, but I figured it out! I used the Dainty Flowers stamp set, and then cut the silver and white with the Basic Borders die. I used four colors: Poppy Parade, Polished Pink, Flirty Flamingo, and Old Olive. It was challenging to get the two triangle pieces at the same center point and angle. I tried to compensate by measuring to the exact middle of the long edge and then making sure the center of the V was at that point. I just eyeballed the angle. Even though they aren't perfect, they still look great! 

 I haven't been feeling well, so this week I kept it simple and used some patterned paper I've had forever to make these cute birthday cards. I used an old Stampin' Up! sentiment stamp (on wood, even!) and added some Basic Matte Dots for visual interest. It was a quick and easy project!

  I wanted to use the CTMH Evergreen stamp set, and came up with this idea. I die cut the largest rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly die set. On that, I did a second and third generation stamp of the tall and medium trees so they would look like a forest of trees. For the first stamp, I stamped on scrap white cardstock. On the top of the tallest tree, I stamped the star in Versamark ink and embossed with gold embossing powder. Colors: SU! Shaded Spruce, Gold 1. Cut card base out of Shaded Spruce cardstock. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4. 2. Cut 4 x 5 1/4 out of gold cardstock and attach. 3. Cut 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Shaded Spruce. Emboss with Merry Melody embossing folder. Attach to card front. 4. Attach decorated tree rectangle. Use dimensionals to add the trees to the front of the card,  5. Stamp sentiment onto scrap of Shaded Spruce CS using versamark, emboss with gold embossing powder. Attach to card using mini dimensionals. 6. Cut 4 x 5 1/4 from white CS. Stamp sentiment...
