Make an Open Window Shutter Card

This is a card I designed today and I think you will like it. It has a window in the front to show off beautiful small page of designer paper in the middle. Then the sentiment is in the back of the card.  You will find the link to the free project sheet below, as well as the link to my YouTube channel to see the replay.

Here's a look at the card I created in my FB live today.  For this card I used the new and upcoming Beary Cute Bundle (stamp set and punch), and accompanying designer series Paper.  Love the bright colors and images in this paper. These product will be available to purchase beginning September 6th.

And here's one I did earlier with the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper (also a new product available Sept. 6, 2023). This one as the "Faux Shutter" look on the front:

And then here's one created with the Zany Zoo Bundle and Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper. I used the curtain dies from the Zany Zoo Dies to create the theater look:

Sunday Scripture Card With All About Autumn Designer Series Paper

Today's Sunday Scripture Card features the new beautiful All About Autumn Designer Series Paper that will be available for purchase September 6hth. I also used one of my favorite stamp sets from the Annual Catalog - Courage & Faith. I love this set because the sentiments are scripture verses from the Bible. , 

The card has a "Fall" theme with designer series Paper, Natural Wavy Trim, and Pecan Pie Bordered Ribbon. It's a quick make to send to someone to encourage their heart!

STAMPIN’ NOTES REWARDS POINTS – HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

  2. Earn a point for every $50.00 worth of product ordered (before tax and shipping). Multiple orders may not be combined to reach a point. (Examples: A $49.95 order will not qualify for any points, a $99.95 order will qualify for 1 point, but an order of $100.95 will qualify for 2.)

*Points expire after one year. Terms and conditions are subject to change.

Make a Wave Card With Designer Series Paper!

I saw my first Stadium Wave Card a few weeks ago and feel in love with the "wave" that springs up when the card is open.  Have you seen one before? I saw a video by Sam Calcott where she designed one that was a 6" x 6" size. And then I saw a video by Stamp with Kelly. She used the Cheerful Daisy Set and made a Wave Card that is 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". 

I decided to design one using Designer Series Paper so the card is less bulky. It was a fun challenge and here's what I came up with:

The long piece of Designer Series Paper is adhered to a 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" piece of Cardstock Base.  Two larrentge die cut tags are tucked under the large circle on the front to keep the card closed.

For this card using the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper I made a belly band to keep the card closed.  You can find the measurements for these two alternatives in my project sheet Download DSP Wave Card Project Sheet HERE

Here are pics of some of the other cards. This one has a Belly Band:
