Make It Jolly

By on November 16, 2019 in Christmas, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have another beautiful holiday card to share with a favorite sentiment of mine this season.

Make It Jolly. So Jolly!

This card came together so quickly with the use of some glittery foil striped paper I found in my stash! Love the extra sparkle.

I first die cut the large HOLLY with bold alpha dies and inked them up with green Distress Ink. Then I popped those up on fun foam and added them to the foiled striped paper.

I used the same green ink to make a paper strip and stamped on the sentiment “Make it Jolly. So Jolly!” with embossing ink, then white heat embossed it.

To finish it all off, I added some holly die cuts and some Green Nuvo drops. You might be wondering why I didn’t add red Nuvo drops…well, the red that I had didn’t match the red foiled paper (it was too pink). So green it is!

I added it all to a pre-scored card base (these are a dream for making cards so easily!) and that’s it!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Thanks for stopping by!

Back to School Good Luck

By on August 5, 2019 in Back to School, Paper Crafting

Hello! It’s Back to School week for our kiddos here and I have some quick cards to share. When I put together cards for kids, I try to remember that they are kids and really don’t care how much time or effort that goes into making a card. So that means, something quick but still cute!

Enter some stamp and die elements that are cute AND will fill the entire card.

I stamped every single image from this Waffle Flower set and colored them in quickly with my Copic markers.

Then, I die cut the large alphabet dies to spell “Good Luck” from cream colored 110# cardstock. To add some punch, I added some ink with finger daubers on the lower part of the letters.

Back to School!

I used patterned paper for the card panel to add some extra texture, and adhered the letters on with liquid glue. Then I popped up the images with foam tape.

A fun card and easy to put together. I’m pretty sure my nephews and granddaughters will love them! But I think they will love the “smarties” candies that I’m giving them to go along with the card. Lol.

I’m often asked what supplies I’ve used, so I have a list below using affiliate links, when possible. When you purchase using these links, I may receive a small commission. This helps me to keep up with blog costs and continue to bring you fun projects. Thank you so much!

I hope you enjoyed these back to school cards today! If you have kids/grandkids going back to school, I wish them Good Luck!
