I love this kit! It’s quick & easy to put together and makes such fun cards! You can create the cards as intended or add your own twist.

I created fun coordinating gift boxes using the card bases and the Cracker & Treat Box Dies.

How fun are these?! The Cracker & Treat Box Dies make these just as easy to make as the cards! Look at all the dies included in this set!

I love how they look together. It’s a great way to give a little something with the card.

The candle die on the treat box is from the Sentiment Silhouettes Dies. You can save 10% when you purchase the Charming Sentiments Bundle. This is such a great sentiment set to have!

Charming Sentiments, Dainty Flowers, & Another Book Fold

Do you ever need to make a card in a hurry? I admit I’ve had to make my share of cards right before going out the door. Today’s card is quick & easy and I bet you can create it in 10 minutes or less!
Stampin' Up! Charming Sentiments and Dainty Flowers Thank you book binding fun fold card idea- Jeanie Stark StampinUp
The key to this card is the Dainty Flowers 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. (Spend $50 or more to get this exclusive Sale-A-Bration item for FREE!) Just look at these pretty prints!

Can you pick out which patterns I used today? It’s the 5th and 6th across the top.
Here’s a tip for cutting this pattern for card fronts- *Cut the DSP across at 5 1/2″ from the top and 5 1/2″bottom. This  leaves a 1″ x 12″ plain strip (from the middle) which you can use to stamp (and die cut) sentiments from. (I like that my sentiment layer has the same textured background color as the DSP.)

Measurements

  • Old Olive Cardbase:  8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ and 5 1/4″, scrap for sentiment layer
  • Dainty Flowers DSP:  7/8″ x 5 1/2″ , 3 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, 3/8″ x 4 3/8″ (envelope), leftover plain strip to stamp sentiment
  • Basic White: 3″ x 4″ (inside card)
The sentiment is from the Charming Sentiments Bundle which is perfect for creating cards all year long. The Charming Sentiments Bundle includes the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set and the Sentiment Silhouettes Dies. The open dies coordinate directly with the all-occasion sentiments included in the stamp set.

The finishing touch was adding a few enamel dots and old olive ribbon. Then I created a simple bookmark to coordinate.
