Hi Stampers!

It's been a little while since I've shared a project, so I thought I'd pop in with a couple of cards I made this week.

The first card features the beautiful Storybook Friends Designer Series Paper, which did most of the work for me! Sometimes gorgeous patterned paper is all you need to create a quick and charming card.

The second card was a chance to do a lot more stamping using the Wild Bunch stamp set. It was so much fun bringing all those adorable images to life and creating a completely different style of card.

I hope these projects inspire you to pull out your favorite papers and stamp sets and spend a little creative time in your craft room. Happy stamping!

Easy Cardmaking with Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper

Spring cardmaking doesn’t get much easier than this. For today’s Easy Cardmaking project, I used the Easter Joy 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Series Paper paired with the Easter Basket Bundle to create a set of bright and cheerful cards.

One of my favorite things about this paper pack is that the designs truly do most of the work. There are 2 sheets in this pack that features playful spring imagery — with a beautiful foil shine that instantly elevates your projects. Simply add your favorite pattern to a card base, decorate, and you’re done.

These cards are perfect for Easter, spring greetings, or anyone who loves soft, happy colors.

Easy Cardmaking: Easter Basket Bundle Fun Folds

This week’s Easy Cardmaking video features two fun fold cards created with the Easter Basket Bundle. These cheerful spring designs are perfect for Easter, spring greetings, or anyone who loves bright, happy cards.

The first card is a Dutch fold showcasing a die-cut basket with flowers.

 The second is a center flap fold with a more traditional Easter basket filled with a bunny, flowers, and eggs. 

Both designs can be easily customized with different greetings like Hello Spring or Happy Easter. And if bunnies aren’t your style, here is a simple alternative idea.

Simply Beautiful Bundle – One Layout, Three Ways

 This week’s card making video is all about getting more from what you already have. I’m using the Simply Beautiful bundle to create three cards with the same layout, but each one highlights a different technique.

One card uses the dies, another uses the coordinating ephemera, and the third features a watercolor background stamping technique, which I demonstrate in the video. The sentiments in this set are perfect for weddings, thinking of you, and encouragement—and for the demo, I added a Happy Birthday sentiment from the Fabulous Sayings stamp set.

If you like simple layouts that can be easily changed up, this is a great video to bookmark and come back to.

🎥 Be sure to watch the replay and try one (or all!) of these ideas.
