Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop – CASEing Lori de Groot

Welcome stampers!

Thank for joining us for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

For the next several weeks, we have a real treat for you. We will be CASEing (copy and share everything) each designer on the blog hop!

This week, we are all CASEing Lori de Groot. We each get to choose a card we like, copy the layout and the colors, but add stamps and dies from the July – December Mini catalog.

I was drawn to this card because I love black and white cards!

Here is my take on it –

I went with a pattern paper instead of a die cut for the background. This is from the Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper. A host item that is a favorite of mine for all the wonderful pattern!

For my focal point, I used the Spruced Up Bundle. It has an outer die, plus an inner die that you can use. I used both for my card.

I did not emboss the sentiment, but I did go with black and white like the card I copied. Pretty fun all in all I’d say!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Cindy Elam to see their takes for Lori de Groot. I know they’ll have some great cards for us!

We will see you next week!

Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop – Cute Halloween Cards

October 9, 2021 · 2 Comments

Welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features cute Halloween cards!

I used the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper for this bootiful card –

For these cute little ghosts, I used the Whale Punch! I trimmed away the fin and tail – soo easy to modify! (The Halloween Punch is currently on backorder, so this idea is a great alternative!)

I used additional strips of pattern paper to strike up the cuteness around the sentiment from the Cutest Halloween stamp! The Gingham bow was also a nice touch!

Looking forward to sending this out soon!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great projects to inspire us!

Fun Fold Fridays – Halloween Card

October 8, 2021 · Leave a Comment

Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday card share!

I created a quick, easy and cute card today –

Pretty cute front!

Really cute inside!

What do you think?

I love how you see both sides of this Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper!

To make the card –

base, 4 1/4″ x 7″, scored at 5 1/2″
DSP, 4″ x 5 1/4″
inside piece, 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″
fold over 1 1/2″ flap
adhere inside piece first
adhere DSP to inside of card leaving 1/8″ border all around
tie ribbon around
adhere pumpkin

How did I create this small, larger pumpkin? I cut three pumpkins from the Halloween Punch, trimmed away the stems and stacked them.

libbystamps, Stampin' Up, Cutest Halloween, Cute Halloween Bundle, Cutest Halloween Suite, Cute Halloween DSP, Halloween Punch, Cute Stars Adhesive Backed Sequins, Black & White 1/4" Gingham Ribbon, Halloween Card, Fun Fold Fridays, Fun Fold

It makes for a nice sized pumpkin now!

I added the Cute Stars Adhesive Backed Sequins and the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon to the card.

Wouldn’t you agree?

Fun Fold Fridays – Tri-Fold Pocket Card

August 27, 2021 · Leave a Comment

Happy Friday!

I know some of you crafters have Make it Mondays, I think I need to have Fashion it Fridays as I am always creating lots of stuff for the weekend! Lol!

Today, no different. I am sharing a Tri-Fold Pocket card for Fun Fold Fridays! Look how pretty –

And, when the card is opened –

It also has a pull out card for writing or adding a gift card – whatever you like!

The main part of the card is a 1/2 sheet of the Peaceful Prints Sale-a-bration Designer Series paper –

I used a strip 5 1/4″ x 12″ and scored it at 4″ and 8″. Note : watch the direction of your print if it has a direction. You don’t want it to be sideways!

I folded both the panels of the card in towards the middle.

Taking the third panel, I made a diagonal cut scoreline to edge corner, to make the pocket. I secured on the outer side with Tear & Tape adhesive forming a pocket.

The whole card is then placed on a base of 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ Basic White. (This is a 1/4 of a sheet of card stock.)

The lovely sentiment is from the Encircled In Warmth stamp set –

This is a great, versatile holiday stamp set to have in your collection.

To finish off the front of the card, I used the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon. It was the final touch the card needed even though my bow is a little wonky, lol!!

This stamp is from the new mini catalog! To see all the new holiday items, click here, or the image –
