To Make This Card:

Adhere White layer to folded Petal Pink card base.
Next, run the Petal Pink piece through the Damask Designs Embossing Folder.
Now, adhere the DSP to the top of the folded card base. Then, add the embossed piece. it will overlap just a bit.
Cover the "seam" with a strip of Petal Pink RIbbon.
Next, die cut the 2nd from the smallest stretched hexagon die from the Nested Essentials Dies in Very Vanilla cardstock and the smallest die from Petal Pink.
Stamp desired sentiment in Crumb Cake ink onto Petal Pink layer. Then adhere to the Vanilla die cut.
Add this to card front, over ribbon, with Dimensionals.

Misty Moonlight Scalloped Wishes

Well I decided it was time to get off the pink kick (at least for my Senior Center class) and create something in a different color! Everything I was going to try was a shade of pink. So I found this lovely Misty Moonlight piece of DSP and went from there! I just love it! This bundle makes such quick, gorgeous cards. I think they will LOVE it!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 3 1/8" x 3 3/4", scrap
Misty Moonlight: 2 3/4" x 3 1/4"
Bubble Bath: scraps
Lost Lagoon: scraps
Painted Illusions (POTM) (ret): 4" x 5 1/4" (Misty Moonlight print)

To Make This Card:

Adhere the DSP to folded White card base.
Stamp outside "dotty" image in Misty Moonlight ink onto White piece. Die cut with corresponding die from the Scalloped Wishes Dies.
Die cut next, Oval Die from Misty Moonlight cardstock. Adhere these 2 together with Multipurpose Glue.
Next, die cut all 3 small "sprigs" from Lost Lagoon, and a set of "flowers" from Bubble Bath and one from White (you'll only use the smallest flower). Add a little Wink of Stella to the flowers, if desired.
Arrange "sprigs" and "flowers" onto "ovals". I popped up the flowers with Mini Dimensionals.
Stamp sentiment in center with Misty Moonlight ink.
Add "ovals" to front of card with Dimensionals.
Finish with Bubble Bath Rainbow Dot on White Flower, and White Moody Palette Dots on the 2 Pink flowers.

Cute as a Bug Fun Fold

Well, it's Senior Center time, again, so time to create cards for them! I try to use up some of my retired inventory with them, but this one is all current! This one was designed by Tara at Tarabeth Stamps! So clever, you know I love the arches as much as I love ovals! And, with this one, I finally get to use the mushrooms in the Sweet Bugs Dies!! Glad she had a tutorial on how to assemble them, as I doubt I'd ever figure it out! I love this one so much, I think I'll do it in my monthly class here, too!

Measurements:

Mossy Meadow: 5 1/2" x 6 3/4", 3" x 4 1/4" (arch)
Crushed Curry: 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), 2 1/4" x 5 1/4" (lower front)
Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5"
Cajun Craze: scraps
Basic Beige: scraps
Cute as a Bug (OE): 2 1/8" x 5" (mushroom print), 2 5/8" x 3 1/2" (fern print)

To Make This Card:

Score Mossy Meadow base @ 4 1/4". Crease into a mountain fold.
Die cut 4th largest Arch from the Everyday Arches in Mossy Meadow, and 5th largest arch from the "fern print".
Score the Mossy Meadow cardstock piece @ 1/2". Crease well.
Trim 3/8" from the DSP piece. (you may still need to fit this a bit first)
Next, adhere White layer to inside Crushed Curry piece.
Place Tear & Tape on inside of "mountain fold" of Mossy Meadow arch on the 1/2" flap. Hook this over the top edge of the inside cardstock pieces and press, firmly, into place. Make sure flap will easily flip up!
Now, adhere this entire piece to the inside of card!
Next, add the Crushed Curry and DSP pieces to front flip up piece.
For the 3 "mushrooms" die cut the 3 stems in Basic Beige, and the tops from Cajun Craze. These are in the Sweet Bugs Dies. (Note: the smallest "mushroom" is actually a little cluster of 3 - the tops are in one die!)
Now, adhere the "fern" DSP piece to the Mossy Meadow arch, fitting it first.
Next, adhere the Cajun Craze "mushroom tops" to the matching base, using Multipurpose Glue. The smallest one actually has 3 tops. I couldn't actually determine which one went where, so just go for it!
Then, adhere the 3 "mushrooms" to the "flap" with Multipurpose Glue. (I should have centered mine more, but did mine like she did!
Stamp sentiment in Cajun Craze ink in opening, as shown.
Finish with scattered Brass Butterflies and a little Ladybug on the base front. (Note: there are also some cute "bugs" you could die cut and add - a snail, small butterfly, and small dragonfly! Too cute!)

Double Step Filled with Sweetness

This cute Double Step card was designed by Cindy Brumbaugh. It's such a clean & simple card that really is so easy to create, and of course, uses my favorite paper! It DOES fold flat for sending! (You can push the steps either way!

Measurements:

Misty Moonlight: 4 1/4" x 8 1/2", 2 1/2" x 4 1/4"
Homemade Sweetness DSP (N)(OE): 2 3/4" x 4", 1 1/8" x 3 3/4" (back) (small jars print); 2 1/4" x 2 1/2" (blue check); 2 die cut jars
Basic White: 4" x 4 1/4" (back), 1 1/4" x 1 5/8" (front sentiment)

To Make This Card:

Score Misty Moonlight base @ 1/2" - 1 1/2" - 3" - 4". Crease well making "mountain" folds. This is so cool. It will fold up and around making the lower step! Give it try so you know how it goes!
Place Tear & Tape along the 1/2"area. (You'll be able to see which side as you practiced rolling it into place!).
Lay base flat, creasing at the 3rd score line, and tucking the 1/2" piece under. Adhere Tear & Tape. Make sure you have a low step, and then adhere well!
Next, attach the larger, small jar print to the flat back.
Now for the "taller" step. Score @ 1/2" - 1 1/2". Crease well making "mountain" folds.
Place Tear & Tape on the 1/2" area and on the bottom of this piece, but on the other side.
Remove the backing of the Tear & Tape on the bottom of this piece. Adhere to card base by lining up the bottom of this piece to the bottom (3rd score line) of the card base, and the outside of the card. See above.
Then, lay the card flat , as if you were putting it in the envelope, remove the backing on the 1/2" area, and attach the top of this step to the back of the card. It's done! Isn't it cute!
To, finish the bases, adhere blue check to the "taller" step. Then, attach 2 "fussy cut" larger jars of your choice.
The sentiment, first make sure you have the White piece going the right direction. Then, I stamped the sentiment from the Sweet Jars in Misty Moonlight and Strawberry Slush ink. Adhere to the "shorter" step.
For the back (where you can write your message), adhere the White piece, along with a strip of DSP. If desired, add a "fussy cut" die cut embellishment.
Finish the card with a bow of Misty Moonlight check ribbon, and scattered Flat Pearls.
