Never Stop Flying

Happy World Card Making Day my friends!! 

Today I am sharing a card that has a fun interactive element when you open it up. I am showcasing the Never Stop Flying, It's Okay and God Is Within Her stamp sets. 

The inside of the card is a squash book. I used the sentiments from the It's Okay and God Is Within her stamp set. I distressed the edges of the shortbread mats and doodled a line around the edges. 

Here is a close up of the cover. This image speaks volumes. I colored the wings using alcohol markers. 

I added a piece of ribbon around the top of the card and a few gold pearls to finish up the card. 

 Thank you for stopping by! I hope you were inspired. Happy National Card Making Day! Don't forget to use TJ10Shalana at checkout.

But First Joy

                        But First Joy and Love

Today’s card uses a new stamp from the October 2024 stamp release, punches or metal dies.  Do you have some premade snowflakes in your stash, or some snowflake stickers leftover from last year. Let’s use what you’ve got for this one.  I bet you’ve got some ribbon!

Supplies you’ll need:

- But First Joy rubber stamp

- white card base

- 5 1/4 x 4 piece of red card stock

- decorative ribbon

- scrap piece of silver card stock (big enough for the large circle behind the sentiment)

- circle or scallop punch or metal die (on that the But First Joy stamp fits in)

- snowflakes (this can be stickers, die cuts or punched out)

- ribbon - you’ll need enough to put across the front and top to bottom. Tape in the back.

- white enamel dots (or paint dots, or gems. Get creative. Look in your stash)

-tape, glue or runner tape

Let’s put this together:

- If you have a scrap piece of red card stock - stamp your sentiment in the center then punch it out or use your die cutting machine. 

- Next punch or die cut a larger circle (I used silver card stock) to put behind the sentiment piece and set aside.

- Grab your ribbon and attach the end to the back of the red card stock with tape. Bring it around the front and tape it on the back again. Repeat that from top to bottom (so it looks like a wrapped package).

- Attach your sentiment with glue, add 7 white enamel dots onto your sentiment, then attach 5 white or silver snowflakes. 

You can repeat this easy process with your favorite holiday sentiments and make a big batch of winter cards in a short period of time.  It’s the initial prepping that takes some organizing…but after that you’re off to the races. 

The October stamps are 15% off through October 8th and you can find them here

* Tip:  Try stamping the sentiment on a white scallop using red ink. You’ll love that look too.

Happy Crafting!
