Petal Pink 4 X 4 Cards

Here are two more cards today using the Blended Season stamps, just in a smaller size.  These cards show how simple you can make a card be with this set and yet still look really cute.

This is not a mailable size card, but I usually give these out in person or tucked into a gift or customer order.  You can even make an envelope to fit this card using the Envelope Punch Board (EPB).  If I decide to mail this size, I place it in the A4 size envelope.

Five Days of Daisies, Day One

Are you ready for 5 days of daisies?  These will all be 4 x 4" cards.  You can mail them in a full-sized envelope, but I like to use them to brighten someone's day ... a little surprise gift for someone needing a lift, tuck them into someone's SU order, slip into someone's lunch ... you get the idea.  I love to use my cards as a way to spread joy to others.  What better way to do it than with daisies.  Here's my card #1:

Isn't it pretty? ... and oh so cheerful!

You have plenty of room to write a little note on the inside.  Be sure to come on back for Day #2.

4 X 4 Butterfly Cards

A square cards makes for a great design and a 4 X 4" size looks really nice.  I made a whole bunch of these, for each of our new In Colors.  

I used watercolor paper for the 'banner' piece and stamped it with background stamps from Watercolor Wings and You've Got This.  Stamping on watercolor paper gives a different look to the image, with added texture. 

I added a smaller die cut butterfly over the larger one, in the same color as the card base.  The larger butterfly is stamped in a 3-color combo and then die cut.

For a touch of bling, I added 3 rhinestones to the center of the small butterfly.

The smaller butterfly is die cut from a new set of framelits.  Did you know that the Butterfly Basics stamp set and the Watercolor Wings stamp sets coordinate?  And, to make it even more exciting, they both coordinate with 2 of our sets of dies --- Bold Butterfly Framelits and Butterflies Thinlits.

Once you realize how these stamps and dies coordinate, you can start dreaming up endless amounts of cards and projects that you can make using them.  

These were really fun and, when you get an assembly line going, they go together pretty fast.
