How to create a slider card from a tag!! 9 of 10 weeks of fall

 Here we go after this only one more left and yes, my fall is moving into the Christmas holiday! Has to be only 9 weeks before the Holidays. 

Here are two cards that were made from the Santa Express designer series paper the celebrate with tags bundle and the Christmas Scottie stamp set. These are slider tags that were made fairly easily  

Materials -  A standard card base 2 tags of the tab kind - you will use only 1 1/2 . The slider is made from 1/2 of the one tag   The other half with the tabs created the second photo card. You will need two 4 by 51/4 pieces of dsp cut in the diagonal  one piece cut top left to bottom right and other cut top right to bottom left  of same side. Easier if one side has no direction  you will need a piece of white cardstock that is 2 by 3 1/8 - inside peekaboo section with Merry Christmas and snow flakes from the Christmas Scottie stamp set . Check out the video for more details  https://fb.watch/grWgnzy38c/

I love making this style of card. Designer paper is cut to 12 by 5 1/4 - then score at 4,7 and 10. Fold accordion style so largest section ends up on a 4 1/4 by 5 1/2.  Then the first smallest flap fold front and is glued down to next section which is 3 inches wide.  Enjoy.

#8 of 10 weeks of Fall.How to use treasured kindness for all seasons

 Here are some photos of how to change up the treasured kindness stamp set. I hope it helps you with more ideas. The last photo has a video of the card and it’s simple measurements. Video here https://youtu.be/w1NwtGcSeuw

This is the first card I developed. The tree screemed to me Halloween. I used the highly used and enjoyed tear back peekaboo style of card. I simply used the white craft ink pad. 

In the next few cards you will see how the set can be used as it is meant to be…………    

Here is another one that is a great box , I intend to introduce in my 10 weeks of fall. It will be 9 of 10.      

Here is another one that is a fancy fold that I intend to introduce in my 10 weeks of fall. It will be last .       

Finally here we have a holiday card using pearlized enamel effects basics white. You will need to color when dry with chalk marker since it absorbs some of the green ink. 

In this picture I decided to use the blackberry beauty  designer paper found in the clearance rack. Check out how to make these cards that for in a standard envelope that are cut at 7 1/4 and 5 1/2

How to make your label fit your card & featuring framed florets

                 https://youtu.be/mXZ5EmIyQMo

 This is #7 of 10 weeks of fall ! So here I have a flip card design using the framed florets. The first half of video is how to incorporate your label and sentiment  into your card without it looking like an add on to the card. Example photo below of what was discussed with many more examples on video. Even with the flip card I make sure the sentiment blends in with the card thru masking the snowflakes. 2nd half of video is the card instructions.  The Blue card on the left is completely symmetrical i.e. either side can be the front.  If that is what you are going for keep images to the right. The white card is not. I kept sentiment on left so only flowers are front of card. Both work but blue on is better. 

Cardstock needed : 5 1/2 x6 3/4 - Will be cut and scored          *Long side cuts : start and in at 1 1/4 and cut down to 41/4 - do this to both top and bottom .                                         *Short side cuts : start at 1/4 down and over to 2 3/4 - this cut occurs 4x - top- bottom -left -right                                  **Scoring long side from top to 1 1/4 @2 3/4 and 4 Repeat for bottom   

   

Here we have a few examples of how to work your sentiments into your card front. See video for much more examples. 

Using older kits to make fancy fold cards out of September 2022 paper pumpkin treat boxes

 

BOO 

    

                     https://youtu.be/tqq5Snwp2M0

So there are three actual kits that you can use to match up with the spooky treats paper pumpkin. The most recent one is the July 2022 P.P.- then the February 2022 and finally the March 2021 P.P.  I decided to make this sweet fancy fold card into a shaker cards using parts from the various paper pumpkins. I did  use some designer paper, but you could use cardstoxk instead. The front strip has to be  a 6 by 1 1/2 inches long and wide.  Using the 2 pieces created by simply cutting the wrap around lid I get the front and back of the shaker card. I need  half of a  fresh freesia card from one of the older paper pumpkins as the base card. I will also use about a third of the other half to make the shaker inset. A clear plastic bag is needed for the insert with shaker pieces. Once that is done all you need is to start stamping and have fun. 

Need 4 cards! Just ink, paper &trimmer

Here are 2 sets of cards. The first set is fall and second is Christmas… the splendid thoughts and merriest moment stamp sets were used from stampin up. These are perfect for stamp a stack or gift cards. Here is my store link if needed 

https://reneeewart.stampinup.net/?fs=e&s=cl

Here are 4 cards where the card fronts are made from one sheet of 81/2 by 11 card stock.  The video explains how to https://youtu.be/pG2JFRNMwKw  and here are the measurements for the label itself: 2 3/4 by 2 is all you need which can be cut out from the actual fronts of the card.  I explain this in the video. There is really no need to add extra dsp or anything. The front speaks for itself. Here I do show alternates for the card below you will see no need for extras unless you love an embellishment here and there. 

Since the card front starts at 51/2 by 41/4 I can cut to a 51/4 by 4 and use the stamped edges to cut and use for framing. 

Next you will see the pieces for the merriest moments : 

       Below is the How the 4 corners card faces are made using a cross cross stamping process.  Don’t be worried about going over the center by at least an 1 1/2   Since we want the edges as a frame for the label. 

To make the card fronts, stamp your images in a "cross" pattern in the center of the cardstock, then use your Paper Trimmer to cut the cardstock in quarters to make 4 pieces 4-1/4 x 5-1/2. You will trim these down to make card fronts. You can get 4 A2 size card fronts by trimming the panels to 4 x 5-1/4 . You can use as notecards, trim 2 of the panels to measure 3-5/8 x 4-7/8, and cut 2 of them down to 4-1/4 x 2-3/4, using a leftover piece to decorate a bag… check out my bags here on my blog here https://reneepcrafts.blogspot.com/2022/06/its-all-about-bags-and-their-many-sizes.html

A great luminary card as a mantle piece

Using the rustic harvest designer paper and the pretty pumpkin bundle one can easily make this great tea light piece.  It’s more than just a card. It just warms up the area once that tea light shines inside.  It uses an 11 by 41/4 cardstock and a 4 by 10 3/4 of designer paper. Scoring is for card base 6 1/2 and 2 3/4 for the designer paper 2 11/16 and 5 3/8. Both end up as Z fold pieces. Check out my YouTube directions here https://youtu.be/tnOPs3hR2as
