So as you can see, there are many occasions on which you could use this collection. I hope you will come join me to watch the video and see how these cards were created. You can find the video HERE.
Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope I have given you a little inspiration today!
Hello everyone! I've got a fun Valentine's Day card to share, but it could be used for any occasion. It's a great way to use up some of your scraps, either white or coloured cardstock scraps, or even patterned paper scraps. And it's easy to do!
Hello again everyone - I hope you all had a very happy Christmas. I've got 3 card styles to share with you today, ranging from very quick and easy to slightly more complex. I've used Paper Rose Studio's Rainbow Village collection for these and I think you're going to love this collection! It's super bright and whimsical.
So as you can see, the first card is very simple and quick to make. The second card is a swing fold card, and I love that the front and back of the circle can have completely different images. The third card is a Bay window style card, and I've got some of the birds from the collection peeking in the window.
I have all the measurements and instructions in my video, so I hope you will come join me there. To see the video, PLEASE CLICK HERE.

Hello everyone, and Merry Christmas to all of you who celebrate it! I've got a really fun card fold to share with you today, and while my card is a Christmas card, please remember that this card fold could be used for any occasion and you may already have everything in your stash.
I think you can see a little more of the dimension in the last photo. When the card comes out of the envelope, it's very intuitive to see how it needs to be "fluffed" up to stand properly. However, it will fold completely flat for mailing. I love how there are so many areas where you can add images or die cuts, maybe even sentiments. You could also attach acetate strips to have things hang down from the top if it suited your card.
I have all the instructions in a video for you, so I hope you will come see how this card is made. To watch the video, PLEASE CLICK HERE.
Thank you for stopping by today and I truly hope you have a very happy Christmas!
Hello everyone, I've got a couple of simple but effective card folds to share today. I've used the new Joy to the World paper collection from Paper Rose Studio for these, but anything you have will work.
The first card fold was inspired by 2 videos that I saw from - Iced Images and Crafting with Quilling Lady. It's a very easy card fold to make and could be used for any occasion. Those little pens the animals are in could hold balloons, presents or a birthday cake for a birthday themed card, or Iced Images made it into a gingerbread house and Quilling Lady made a fall harvest card with crates.
The second card fold has a simple front cover but a fun inside pop up. And again, it could be used for any occasion.
I've got all the details up in a video if you want to come join me there to see how these were made. To watch the video PLEASE CLICK HERE.

Paper Rose Studio Supplies: Rainbow Village 6x8" Quick Card Collection 35352, Rainbow Village Cut Aparts 35346, Jumbo Alphabet Metal Cutting Die 17946, Nesting Circles Metal Cutting Die 17424
These cards are an easy 2 from 1 project. I started with the top card, which is a 5 x 7" card. I cut the 5 x 7" background from one of the quick card collection papers (they are 6 x 8"), and saved the scraps. I also cut a piece of white cardstock to be 5 x 7", and glued the patterned paper to this. I then die cut the circular opening, centering the die closer to the top. I was unable to get my 5 x 7" card base through my die cutting machine, so that's why I created a front for the card. On my card base, I trimmed off the front, leaving a 1/2" flap to attach the new die cut card front. Save the die cut circle though, as that will be the focal point for the second card.
I cut a larger circle from white cardstock and used the same smaller die to diecut the center opening. I fussy cut some of the flowers and leaves from the cut aparts collection and added these around the center opening. I die cut the "Bah!" sentiment three times from white cardstock, stacked and glued them together, and attached them to the front of the card. The remaining sentiments for both cards were done on my computer and I fussy cut those out.
For the inside of the card, I cut a small piece of wire and used a hot glue gun to attach some of the embossed die cut birds that were a part of the Quick Card collection. I added the die cut sentiment below the middle bird. I then glued the birds and sentiment in place so that just the center bird would show through on the front. I fussy cut out some clouds to cover the attachment of the wire ( I used double sided tape to adhere the wire to the card). Finally, I added in some musical notes above the birds.
For the second card, I used a 5 1/2" square card base. I centered the strip of cardstock that remained from the first card, and added some gold foil strips above and below it. I added foam tape behind the leftover circle from the first card, and again, added some of the fussy cut floral images behind it. I popped the embossed bird die cut up on foam tape also, and attached him in the center of the circle. Finally, I added in the sentiments. On the inside, I also added a few more of the embossed die cut florals and a Happy Birthday sentiment. I love how bright and colourful these images are!
Thank you so much for stopping by today, and I hope I've given you some ideas on how to use this collection.
