Quick as a Bunny Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper

This Quick as a Bunny video is under 9 minutes in length and contains several tips for using the Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper.

First, I used the leafy paper with the Stitched So Sweetly die and the Playful Alphabet numbers for an anniversary card for my husband. We recently celebrated our Silver/25th, so I thought this card was masculine enough to give to him. The Artistic Dies have a great leafy flourish that coordinates so well with the pattern of this paper when cut in silver foil! It would be great with other anniversary numbers used as well or for the age of the birthday guy or girl too!



I cut a few of the copper flowers to embellish this Copper Embossed Happy Birthday. (Happy Birthday from the Sweet Ice Cream Set and Die from the Tasteful Label Dies) The Champagne Rhinestones look great with copper, so I used them instead of coloring with orange blends as I suggested in the video.








This masculine and almost western Thank you card also uses the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I added some Gilded Gems and Gold Fine Art Ribbon to accentuate the gold after embossing the Sweet Ice Cream Sentiment in Silver.

2021 Graduation Cap and Gown 3D Card

I loved this card so much that I made it again this year! It is so fun just sitting on a table! 



The base is 8-1/2 inches long by 3-1/2 inches high. It is scored at each end at 2-1/8 inches.

Your interior white piece is 3-1/4 inches square with an eighth inch edge on all sides.

Both the hat square (Pacific Point blue) and the white V pieces on the front are a 3 inch square.  

You just cut the Basic White piece on the diagonal, and then cut one of the pieces on the diagonal again.

For the "action" piece, use matching cardstock that is about 2-1/2 inches wide by 2 inches wide and score it in half. Really the size isn't important though. You can make it narrower if you'd like. Then, be sure that the fold is a bit ABOVE the edge of the top of the card so it will move freely. This can best be understood by viewing the video below at 9:47.

Make sure your card isn't larger than 5-1/2 inches high as you attach the mortar board square to the top so that it will still fit in a Medium Stampin' Up! envelope (A2).

Tassle making is at 13:36.

Would a video help? Here's a link to the one I made for this style card last year. The grey and burgundy/maroon card was a bit larger than this one, but this one is perfect for an A2 envelope.

Hand-Penned Memories and More card pack and cards and envelopes

These customer appreciation cards we made last Saturday utilize the great Hand Penned Memories and More cards and envelopes with the Hand Penned Memories and More Card Pack. We colored our stamped image to match the card at class as shown on the left, but the right card layer features a pre-stamped image one can color.
