February 2025 Class Cards

Image
  Hi there Creators My goodness over 1/2 way through January!, so I figured seeing as I've made them I'd best share my class cards for Feb.  Classes are Friday 7th at 1pm in my classroom Laanecoorie and Saturday 8th at 10.30am at Wattle City Church Argyle Road, Maryborough.  Class cost is $24 for 4 cards I thought we'd better make the most of the Sale-a-Bration goodies, so this is Heart Shaped Bundle (stamps & dies) that you can get for free with an order of $200, it is a pretty bundle!  I've teamed it up with the new Antique Pearls this next one uses the rather cool Linked Together Decorative Masks and also the saying from With You in Mind (I rather like nice large sayings for cards and this one has a few! Moving onto a new punch: To the Point Label Punch and matching stamp set Bright Borders And last but not least one of the new Hybrid embossing folders (this means it has dies that go with the embossing folder): Beautiful Butterflies (never would have gu...

Something Saturday - Meandering Meadows Mini Cards

 Hi there Creators,

Today I'm showing you how to create 5 really cute mini cards with a single sheet of this gorgeous Meandering Meadows Designer Series Paper (it's an Online Exclusive, in case you're wondering why you haven't seen it in the catalogue) - check the link out to see it!

In the catalogue are these cute 3" square mini envelopes (I rediscovered mine the other day) hence this post came about. 😃 Sometimes you just want a mini card to go with something!

First things first, let's show you the cards, then give you the measurements, and the video

The first set I made up before the video are these ones: bear in mind that there is a different design on both sides of the paper, I've also used the Adhesive Backed Dragonflies & Birds, they actually remind me of the Brushed Brass Butterflies that are in the annual catalogue (which I use a fair bit)  I've also used the Double Oval Punch (bit of a favourite punch - such a handy size)!  The Circle Sayings Stamp set, and Stampin' Write Markers

Meandering Meadows DSP, Stampin' Up!
Then these are the ones I make in the video:  Oh I forgot to say that I used the Adhesive sheets for the card that uses the gilded leafing.

I did use the Stampin' Write Markers, thick ends to colour in the stamps and stamp them, I love the way you get a slightly mottled looking image using them (and the fact that they're such a versatile colouring medium)!  Did you know you can actually pick out certain words/images in the stamp to stamp separately with them, or potentially colour your words/images in many different colours like a rainbow effect?

Anyway I promised to share the card size with you, 

Cut your A4 in 1/2 to make 2 A5 sized pieces, then score down the middle at 7.4cm, and cut into 7cm cards, Voila 3 mini cards out of each A5 sized card. 😁

Then the Designer Paper is cut to 3" squares, then I've cut 5mm off both sides and 5mm off the top or bottom (not both).  This will make the piece the right size for the front of your mini card.  Keep the cut off pieces to create the gold card.

Here's the video in case you missed it:


I hope this inspires you to create

God Bless love
