A Notecard Portfolio

Ever need a quick gift? Maybe for a host of a dinner party (yeah, remember dinner parties?), or for a birthday for a friend? I've got a cute idea that you can whip up fairly easily and quickly, and it's sure to make someone smile.

This is a little Note Card Holder:

It's made from one piece of 12" x 12" patterned paper. This particular one uses one of the FREE papers currently available in the Sale-a-Bration catalog for a $50 purchase. It's the Flower & Field Designer Series Paper, and it's so pretty!

Here's a photo of the side:

And open:

The folds of the patterned paper creates two pockets to hold your decorated note cards.

Here are the cards:

For the card on the left, I used a Basic White Note Card and Envelope and decorated the front (and envelope flap) with the DSP. Then I cut a little Stitched So Sweetly label and stamped it with Inspiring Iris.

The second card has a 1" piece sliced off the front of the card; this allows the back side of the patterned paper to show when added to the inside of the card (it's just a 1" strip of DSP along the right side of the inside of the card).

Two of the Stitched So Sweetly labels were cut and stamped with a stamp from Peaceful Moments. And I added two Black Matte Dots. Easy!

I've been working on a class package which will be mailed out this week, and then I can sit down and write up the directions for creating these Note Card Portfolios. I even re-designed it so it can hold 4 notecards and envelopes - I'll include directions on that too. So c'mon back later this week to see how you can create one of your own.

And don't forget about Sale-a-Bration! Time is almost up!

Simple Sympathy

Here's a card we all need from time to time, always hoping it won't be necessary. Sympathy cards are never easy to make, but I have one here that I think will be a perfect card for the needed moment:

Copper and Mossy Meadow - what a lovely combination!

The copper frame is a retired die/embossing folder combo but one I can't get rid of. Setting it against an embossed background (Scripty embossing folder) just enhances the gorgeous texture of the card.

I stamped a background of Sheet Music (also retired) using Sahara Sand ink, stamped off. The sentiment is from Peaceful Moments, stamped in Mossy Meadow. And the bouquet of leaves were die cut and tied with some upcoming Mossy Meadow Braided Linen Trim (coming in the January - June Mini Catalog).

This is so elegant and calming, and I know it could easily become a beautiful birthday card with just a quick change of greeting. That's why I love Stampin' UP! products - they can be used for so many occasions and all the products coordinate beautifully!

Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper

The Peaceful Poppies suite of products is so beautiful, and the designer series paper is one of my favorite products in the suite. Take a look:

At my Card Club this month, we used the paper to make a very simple, yet lovely, card:

The design on this sheet of DSP is perfect for creating a non-stamped card front. It contains enough of the poppy flowers and background to make either 6 cards with a 4" wide panel or 8 cards with a 3" wide panel, as we did here.

Attendees also got to practice using a border punch, the Decorative Ribbon Border, to create a pretty, lacy strip along each side of the DSP.

The greeting, from Peaceful Moments, was stamped on Whisper White, cut with the Stitched So Sweetly dies, and popped up on Dimensionals.

We finished the front with some retired sequins because I misplaced my Peaceful Poppies Sequins 😞, but the cards came out looking great anyway!

And inside:

We stamped one of the poppy images and colored it with Stampin' Blends. What a nice way to complete a card!

The Peaceful Poppies Suite is now available in the January - June 2020 Mini Catalog. I would be happy to provide you with a paper copy of the catalog; just contact me and let me know you want one. In the meantime, you can check out the catalog online by clicking here.
