Quick and Easy Card Featuring Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set and Dies

Hello my crafty friends! As promised, we are going to switch over to fall-themed cards featuring the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set and Cottage Wreaths Dies. Today’s cards are full-on fall with colors and images of gourds (JD22, p. 58-59).

The card bases are Sahara Sand Cardstock (full sheet of 8 1/2 x 11, cut in half at 5 1/2," scored at 4 1/4"), fold and burnish along the edge for a crisp, side fold A2 card. The first layer/mat is Cajun Craze or Mossy Meadow Cardstock (cut 4” x 5 1/4"). The Gingham Cottage 12x12 Designer Series Paper (“DSP”) that is part of the Gingham Cottage Suite is beautiful paper, but I went with the gourds and pumpkins on dark backgrounds from the Rustic Harvest 12x12 DSP.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  I thought it was time we should try out the new Split Card Textures dies (AC22, p. 86, 174). Most of the time when die cutting, we use the pieces that are die cut and toss the negative, or the scraps. However, with these dies, the negative of the die is the intended main event. I have been giving the dies a play and thought I could use some of the scraps for a background on this card. What do you think?


I (HEART):  Fun cards to make, but the Silver-Threaded Twine is super cute – love that silver strand. 😊 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope my project has inspired your creativity. I would love to see what you have created. Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.

Stamp On!!

Quick and Easy Card Featuring Let’s Set Sail Stamp Set

Hello my crafty friends! Before switching over to fall themed cards, let me show you this quick and easy card using the Let’s Set Sail Stamp Set combined with the Sailboat Builder Punch. Perfect for birthday cards for those that love the water (AC p. 80, 151).

The card base is Basic White Cardstock (full sheet of 8 1/2 x 11, cut in half at 5 1/2," scored at 4 1/4"), fold and burnish the edge for a crisp, top fold A2 card. The ink color for the sails is Crushed Curry. The cardstock for the boat and mast is Night of Navy. The ink color for the water is Balmy Blue with the boat’s shadow in Night of Navy. The scene is die cut using one of the Scalloped Contours dies and layered on a slightly larger mat of Balmy Blue Cardstock.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  If you are looking for a multi-occasion card to have on hand, this quick and easy card would be a good pick for mass producing. Of course, the Sailboat Builder Punch is not required, but it certainly eliminates the need for fussy cutting to reduce production time. I would say this card can be completed in less than ten minutes once the supplies are all lined up.

❤️❤️❤️Besides the fact that this card is simple, I love the flock of birds. Truly makes this card seem so peaceful. 😊
