Hey everybody, Happy Weekend – I hope you have something fun planned! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project with you today created with items in our new Here Comes Santa Claus Collection. This faux center step card is pretty close to the top of my ‘all-time favorites’ list and is super easy! The instructions are on the Freebies page of my blog HERE if you’re interested in learning how to make it. You’ll be pleasantly surprised!

I cut the card base and center panel from CutCardStock Lessebo Moss Green cardstock as well as layering panels from the Here Comes Santa Claus 6×9 Collection pack. I assembled the card and added some Eyelet Outlet wide Road Washi Tape. I added sentiment and images from the Here Comes Santa Claus Die Cut Pieces, and voila, card front finished!

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip of patterned paper used on the front and a star from the Die Cut Pieces. I added sentiments (also from the Die Cut Pieces) and another panel on the back for a more finished look.

Hey everybody, can you believe 2025 is here already?! As quickly as 2024 passed us by, it’ll be Christmas again before we know it… LOL! I’m up on the Emily Moore Designs blog today with a sweet new home card featuring our NEW All The Happy Things stamp set and Decorative Sentiment Dies. These two new products are available in a bundle for a discounted price, so look for the Decorative and Happy Bundle on the website, and if you’re a new customer, be sure to use my code LESLIE10 for 10% off your order! I also used the Gift Card Holder With A Bow for this tri-fold and I love how it turned out. I’ve made quite a few tri-folds recently; it truly is one of the easiest fun folds ever.

I cut a 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ card base from CutCardStock Basis Dark Red cardstock and scored it at 4-1/4″. Next, I cut an additional 4-5/8” x 5-1/2” panel and scored it at 3/8″, then adhered it to the right edge of the card base on the 3/8″ flap to create the tri-fold. I cut several 1/4″ strips from Celebration Warehouse Dark Red Wine Non-Shedding Glitter cardstock along with several 1/8” strips from CutCardStock Basis Natural cardstock. I adhered two of each strip in a vertical orientation and two in a horizontal orientation on the cart front, slightly separating each pair. I wove them for a little interest.

Using the dies in the Gift Card Holder With A Bow set, I created a bow from the Basis Dark Red and Dark Red Wine Glitter cardstock and adhered it to the cross-section of the strips. Finally, I stamped the sentiment from the All The Happy Things stamp set in Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink which I cut using the label-type die in the Decorative Sentiment Dies and popped up on 3D Foam Squares.

For the tri-fold flap, I used the larger decorative edge rectangle die in the Decorative Sentiment Dies to cut a panel from the Basis Dark Red for a gift card. I cut a slightly larger panel from Basis Natural using the paper trimmer and rounded the corners to match the corners of the decorative edge die cut. Using the Gift Card Holder Die With A Bow set, I cut a gift card holder from Fred She Said Floral Surprises digital paper and trimmed it to fit inside the decorative edges of the die cut.

For the inside, I cut a 4-1/8” x 5-3/8” panel from the same Fred She Said digital paper. I have hundreds (if not thousands) of digital paper files on my laptop and I’m going to start using them! ;) Using the smaller decorative edge rectangle die in the Decorative Sentiment Dies, I cut a sentiment panel from Basis Natural. I stamped another sentiment from the All The Happy Things stamp set in Rhubarb Stalk ink and adhered it to the inside panel.

Hey everybody, Happy New Year! Wishing you all a happy, healthy and prosperous 2025! My daughter, my firstborn, is 41 today and I don’t know how that’s possible because I’m only 29. Bahahaha! I’ve been busting at the seams to blab that I have joined the Creative Creases Challenge DT this year, and I couldn’t be more excited! You know how I love me some fun folds and this opportunity is right up my alley. This is the only challenge team I’m on now (the other five are product teams) and I’m really looking forward to sharing some fun folds. These challenges have historically been every other week on Fridays, and this year Debbie has changed the schedule to monthly challenges to give everyone more time, so come on over and play with us! Challenge #99 is live this morning and I’ve created a get well card for my debut project using the Sizzix Door Fold-A-Long Thinlits. This is a super easy card that really packs a punch and can be tailored to any season or occasion.

All the cardstock I used is from CutCardStock. I cut the card base and door accents from Lessebo Granite Gray and Shadow Gray, and the door handles from Bright Silver Foil and Stardream Metallic Silver. Next, I cut the wreath from Pop Tone Jellybean Green and flowers from Raspberry Ice and Pink Tutu cardstock. I added tiny gray gemstones to the center of each flower. The wreath can be made in any color combination for any season or occasion. So fun!

I cut the inside panel from Lessebo White cardstock and stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Hand-Penned Petals in Catherine Pooler Black Jack ink. I added a few more pink flowers, and the card was complete.

Hey everybody, Happy Thursday! If you celebrate the birth of Christ in any religion, I hope you had a beautiful holiday! The Christmas/Winter season is my favorite and we had a wonderful day. I’m stoked to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with the super adorable Bizzy Hands Snow Glad We Are Friends stamp set. Our design team created Christmas, New Year or Winter projects and I settled on a cute lil’ round Winter-themed card. I love shaped cards and this image was perfect for this, and it was fun to color!

Using dies in the set of Back To Basics Stitched Circles Nested Dies, I cut the card base and front panel from CutCardStock Basis White along with a frame from a pattern in the Back To Basics Ruby 6×9 Collection Pack. I stamped the image from the Bizzy Hands Snow Glad We Are Friends stamp set on the die cut front panel in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with alcohol markers.

I stamped a sentiment from the Namaste Home stamp set (which is on clearance, by the way) in black ink, trimmed it, and adhered it to the bottom of the card front. I adhered the frame and a tiny bow created from Back To Basics Stars & Stripes Ribbon using a cool little wooden bow maker that my awesome friend, Maureen, gifted me last Christmas.

For the inside, I die cut two circles using more dies in the set of Stitched Circles Nested Dies, adhered them together, and stamped a sentiment from the Bizzy Hands stamp set in black ink.

Rain Is Glitter Z-Fold

Hey everybody, happy Wednesday! And Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! I hope you’re having a fantastic week. I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a triple Z-fold, my debut project as a new design team member, and I’m over the moon excited! This card features our awesome Rainbow Wishes stamp set (from our newest release) along with the coordinating Nimbus Stencil, Winter Warmers 6×6 Patterned Paper Pack, Stitched Rectangles Nested Cutting Dies, and Mini Pearl Strips. You know how I love fun folds, and this one is pretty high up there on my list of all-time favorites, so I thought it would be a great design for my first Love From Lizi project!

I started by stamping the cloud and raindrops along with the sentiment from the Rainbow Wishes stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Solar White cardstock. I cut it with a Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Die and then stenciled the cloud with the Nimbus Stencil, a Catherine Pooler Detail Blending Brush, and Catherine Pooler Tranquil ink. I added a tiny dot of glue to each raindrop and sprinkled on some Stampin’ Up Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

While the focal image was drying, I die cut a slightly larger rectangle using the same Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Dies. I cut the card base and strips from CutCardStock Basis Pink, along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Winter Warmers 6×6 Patterned Paper Pack, and then assembled the card. The finishing touch was adding some Mini Pearl Strips across the top and bottom of the card front.

I cut the back panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the patterned papers used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the Rainbow Wishes stamp set in black ink and adhered the panel to the back of the card.

Hi friends, Happy Saturday! I’m delighted to share another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our new O Holy Night Collection. This just might be my most favorite faith-based Christmas collection ever! I totally love all these papers, stamps, dies and die cut pieces! I created an angled gate fold that is so easy and really packs a punch. Instructions for this fun fold are on the Freebies page of my blog HERE.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis White 12×12 cardstock along with layering panels from several coordinating prints in the O Holy Night 12×12 Collection Pack. I added a large die cut from the O Holy Night Die Cut Pieces for the focal along with some polymer clay white and blue stars from our Sprinkles collection added to each flap. The final step was adding a small disc magnet to keep the card closed.

I cut two layering panels for the inside along with a stitched square die cut for the signature panel and embellished it with a die cut sentiment and image.

Merry Christmas ornament shaker

12/21/24 Weekly Favorite (favorited by three fellow crafters) at Splitcoast Stampers!
12/31/24 Best of 2024 Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody, I’m back with a second post on this fine Friday morning. Only one more Friday in December and I can’t believe how quickly the weeks continue to fly by – Christmas will be here in a flash! I’m delighted to share an Emily Moore Designs DT inspiration project created with our awesome Ornament Gift Card Holder Die, along with our Christmas Sayings-Dainty Cursive Font Digital Sentiments and Card Sentiment Dies used on the inside. I went ‘outside the box’ a bit with this card and used the ornament die to cut a shaker aperture into the card flap rather than use the gift card holder element, and I love how it turned out. Shaker cards never disappoint!

I cut a 5-1/2″ square top-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White along with layering panels from a couple prints in the Keep It Simple Back To Basics Rose 12×12 Collection Pack. Using the Ornament Gift Card Holder Die, I cut the shaker aperture into the front flap and added the ornament top which I cut from CutCardStock Bright Gold Foil. I created the shaker using Grafix Craft Plastic, Scrapbook Adhesives Crafty Power Tape and GKD Shaker Strips.

I used a variety of Keep It Simple Sprinkles for the shaker bits, and then added a large sentiment which I die cut from CutCardStock Gold Glitter cardstock using the Sizzix Ribbon Thinlits. I have to say that these Sizzix Thinlits are pretty popular because I realized a while ago that I also used them on my other project posted earlier this morning, lol! Totally unintentional, as I made the other project several months ago! :P

I cut the inside panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with leftover strips of the plaid paper and gold foil cardstock used on the front. I printed the Christmas Sayings Digital Sentiments (a free download, by the way) on Solar White cardstock as well, and cut it with a Card Sentiment Die. It’s very cool that Emily sized the digital sentiments to cut with the Card Sentiment Dies!

Merry Christmas window easel card

12/21/24 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hi friends, a big ol’ Happy Friday to you all! I hope you have something fun planned this weekend. I’ve been invited once again to design for Creative Creases, and you know how much I love fun folds, so it didn’t take more than a couple seconds to say yes! Creative Creases Challenge #98 is live this morning and I’m delighted to share my window easel card featuring a stamp and dies from Art Impressions and patterned paper from Keep It Simple, two of my favorite companies.

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis White cardstock along with layering panels from Keep It Simple Back To Basics Jade and Back To Basics Ruby 12×12 Collection Packs. I stamped the image from the Art Impressions Christmas Drive Window Stamp on Basis White cardstock and colored it with alcohol markers. I cut the image with a die in the Art Impressions Shadow Box Window Die set, splattered some Dr. Ph. Martin’s Bleed Proof White Paint spritzed with water over it with a fan brush, and set it aside.

Using additional dies in the Shadow Box Window Die set, I die cut the window in the easel flap and then added the die cut window frame, 3D window backing and stamped image. I then die cut the bow and sentiment multiple times (using the Sizzix Ribbon Thinlits) and stacked them for dimension. The finishing touch was adding a few Taylored Expressions Bits & Pieces Iridescent Rhinestones.

And here’s one final shot of the card closed and ready for mailing. I have to say that 3D cards folding flat for mailing is pretty awesome!

A little birdie told me…

Howdy peeps! Happy Thursday – another week almost behind us. Time sure is flying by! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a super cute bird-day mini slimline card. This is another one of those cards that takes almost no time to put together once all the die cutting is done. I used Classic Crest Baronial Ivory along with an assortment of colors in our Lessebo line (my current fav). I also dug into my stash and grabbed some wavy borders, an enamel sun, and cloud and bird brads. Love how this turned out – and I think it could even be considered CAS-ish!

I cut my go-to 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base from Classic Crest Baronial Ivory cardstock. I printed the Background Labs Cloud digital background on 32# HP copy paper on my new Canon color laser printer and trimmed it to fit the mini slim card base. I have a background story on printers but I’ll save that for another day, lol! Next, I die cut the bird houses from the Catherine Pooler Home Tweet Home Dies in seven of the eight Lessebo cardstock colors I had out. Since there were so many dies in this set, I left them connected so I wouldn’t lose any of them, and it worked out well. Now I have lots of extra pieces in all those pretty colors to assemble more bird houses for future projects. ;)

I used the Keep It Simple Wavy Borders to cut three layers of ‘hills’ from Lessebo Hunter Green cardstock for my little scene. After assembling the bird houses, I added an Eyelet Outlet bird brad to each one and adhered them to the card front on adhesive foam squares, then added the enamel sun and cloud brad. I heat embossed the sentiment from the Keep It Simple Build-A-Birdhouse stamp set in Hero Arts white embossing powder, fussy cut it and added it to the bottom of the card front which completed the card front.

I cut the inside panel from Classic Crest Baronial Ivory and embellished it with another bird house. I stamped another sentiment from the same Build-A-Birdhouse stamp set in Memento Cottage Ivy ink, and layered the panel on Cherry Red cardstock.

Wishing You A Very Merry Christmas

Hey everybody, I hope you’re having a great day! I’m delighted to share a Scrapbook Pal DT inspiration project created with some super fun Lawn Fawn products which are all available on the Scrapbook Pal website. I used the Shutter Card dies, Shutter Card Add-On dies, Scalloped Circle Gift Tag dies, and White Hemp Twine. Now how’s that for one-stop shopping, lol?! I’ve made several shutter cards over the years, all with hand-cut pieces, and when I discovered these Lawn Fawn dies, I knew those days of hand-cutting the shutter card pieces were over. Dang, what a game-changer!

Using the Lawn Fawn Shutter Card dies, Shutter Card Add-On dies and Scalloped Circle Gift Tag dies, I cut the card and belly band pieces from CutCardStock Basis White and Pop Tone Red Hot Cardstock. Then I cut the layering pieces from coordinating prints in the Traci Vanover Designs Peppermint Christmas 6×6 paper pad.

This awesome paper pad also has sheets of ephemera so I fussy cut some for the front and inside. I also added a white twine bow (created from Lawn Fawn Trimmings White Hemp Twin) and some red gemstones to the element on the belly band which completed the project. Here is a shot of the shutter opening…

And here is the shutter completely open to see that fun sentiment cut from the ephemera sheet in the paper pad! ;)
