Biggest Wish Cards
You’ll notice that I used the Biggest Wish stamp set on most of these cards to create “Happy birthday” and “Thanks” cards. I chose cardstocks & inks that coordinated with the free Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper.
In the Wild Card
Change up the Designer Series Paper to get a totally different look! The example above uses the In the Wild paper, but still uses the Biggest Wish stamp set like the cards above. For the inside sentiment, I used a stamp from Sunny Sentiments stamp set. All the supplies I used for this card are linked below. Click the button to view.
Quiet Meadow Cards
Pair the free Daffodil Afternoon paper with another stamp set. I used the Quiet Meadow set to create these two cards.
Pansy Petals Card
For the example above, I used the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper paired with the Biggest Wish stamp set. I love the Fresh Freesia ink and cardstock.
Just found your YouTube Channel and just wanted to say how much I have loved watching your videos so far. Keep up the great work. I can’t wait to try the Book Binding card. Looks like a great card to easily mass produce with some of your smaller leftover pieces of DSP.
Thank you for Sharing.
Thank you so much, Shannon!!! I’m so glad you liked it! Oh I totally agree with you on the book binding card. So easy to mass produce some great cards and use leftover DSP!
So much fun making the book binding fun fold cards. Yours are so lovely. A person can do wonders with the DSP.
Some I have turned the card to where it would open from the bottom up instead of opening from right to left, just for a chnage of pace you might say.
Great videos by the wy.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful, enjoyable and safe week end.
Thank you so much, Colleen! I’m going to have to try making them to open from the bottom up. That’s a great idea! Have a wonderful weekend!
