The Paper Artist/Creative Card Design

H appy Hedgehogs ~ Pop Up Card This card originally started out to be the 5 Minute Monday card for today, however after creating it and tweaking it for about 2 hours I decided it just wasn't going to make the cut for Quick & Easy 😂 For the most part the layout is easy, so don't get frightened. It was the details I chose. The Happy Hedgehog stamp set is always so much fun to create with, that ideas just seem to keep wafting in my brain space which keeps the creation of the card going even longer.  A quick & easy card usually doesn't consist of coloring with blends, and many die cut pieces. This card has that... so I think I might offer it up in " And Just Like That... " Vip Club. Have you signed up for that?   How do you become part of the VIP Club you ask?  Simply look to the right 👉 and up a little 👆 and sign up for my newsletter where you see "  and just like that...  " .  This card features a cute little pop up surprise when you open it ...

  5 Minute Monday ~ Diagonal Fun Fold Our quick and easy 5 Minute Card Tutorial today is Diagonal Fun Fold.  It was created with versatility in mind, allowing you to use any stamp set, and designer series paper for any occasion! We want to be able to use our card designs for many different cards, yet not the same cards.   I used the Flowing Flowers stamp set for this card. Paired with some Dsp from the Pattern Party collection. I am just in love with those tiny white dots on the black background. I stamped the flowers in Flirty Flamingo, one of my favorite colors. Don't forget to stamp a coordinating envelope for your card ~ we don't want any "naked" envelopes going out in the mail. Besides it just makes your card look so elegant.  Versatility: I used the "Nuts & Bolts" stamp set for this card, in order to show you how easy it is to change up the theme of your card with this layout. It looks so cute with the "Sweet Talk" designer series paper. ...

  5 Minute Monday ~ Card Class  This card is just so delicate and pretty. It's the perfect card to send to someone special, wether it's just a note, a thank you, or even a birthday ( just change up the sentiment and your good to go).  "Eden's Garden" stamp set and coordinating paper has been sitting on my shelf looking at me begging me to make something pretty since it came out before Christmas. Well, today was that day.  I knew it would be just perfect for our 5 Minute Monday Card Class.  Although Eden's Garden designer series papers are so pretty they make any card beautiful. The stamp set is lovely, and the dies cut out some really nice borders and sentiment layers, I really only used the paper and a sentiment for this card.  I'm sure I will be using this bundle for many cards in the future.  This card made a perfect 5 Minute Card!!  Without further delay, here are the instructions.  Card Measurements:  Evening Evergreen Cardstock 8 1...

  Double Floating Panel Card ~     There are just no other words for this card other than "stinkin' adorable"! Am I right?? The card layout is perfect for showing off these happy little hedgehogs.  Originally I saw this card layout at Flutterby Heidi (you can find her on you tube ), she had created this card layout using Awesome Otters stamp set, and let me tell you it was just as cute! I had to edit a few measurements and the floating panel mechanisms in order to get this card to work to for me. However, it was definitely worth it! I used Simply Marbleous Designer Series Paper (which is free during Sale a-bration ). Stampin' Blends alcohol markers were the perfect coloring partner for this proje ct.

       Live Life in Full Bloom ~ Birthday Card                          I am absolutely in love with this card! I just can't wait to give it to one of my bestest friends for her birthday! She is going to love it!  Though it took some time to get the execution correctly, the recreation will be quite easy!  Correct placement led to the illusion of a flower pot with seeds turning into a pot of fully bloomed flowers when when opened. Love the concept!  In fact, I may just offer it as one of my exclusive card tutorials.  And look... it's just as cute when you open it! It is completely designed to sit with the center popped up, using the pot of flowers as a stopper.  The products I used to make this card are listed below as well as the link to Shop Now !  Flowering Rainboots Bundle Home & Garden Bundle Friendly Hello Bundle ( DSP Paper ) The "Friendly Hello Bundle" is availa...
