New product alert! I made a beautiful card today on my Facebook Live – and it goes together so quickly! I featured new product that will be available starting Nov. 7 via my Online Store! This is the Meandering Meadow suite – and includes the gorgeous Garden Meadow Desginer Series Paper – and the Garden Meadow bundle. The DSP itself is a must have! I of course love the bundle as I am a gardener and love all things related to gardening.
Here is the recording of the Facebook Live – Watch the recording to see how quickly this card goes together! So simple – but so pretty. I designed this card so that you could see both sides of the DSP!
Here’s a look at the card from the inside – the backside of this paper is so beautiful as well – don’t you think?
I finished up the card with a stamped greeting and flower on the inside – and one of the new dragonfly embellishments that are included in this new suite.

For my Facebook Live this week I made the card above featuring a new bundle called Heartfelt Hexgaon. it’s a wonderful bundle – great words in the stamp set and an awesome hexagon shaped punch! What I didn’t show on my Live was the Scalloped Gift Card Box you see on the left! After I finished my Live, I made the box for my daughter Rachel. She was coming into town for a few days and it was her birthday. I had a gift card to give her – and used the supplies I had out for the card to make her a cute box!!!! In her box, I did include a gift card and also a pair of cute fall earrings – and both fit in the box perfectly! It’s a really easy was to make a gift card and small gift seem more special!
Here is the recording of the Facebook Live –
The card – the papers I used are so pretty. They are from a stack of Designer Series Papers in the current Mini Catalog called Garden Walk. It is a great 6″ x 6″ stack – with beautiful papers for all occasions – there is even a “Christmasy” paper!
Here’s a look at the box – just changed the measurements up a bit – but other than that, it is the same as the card. And I LOVE the Lost Lagoon Ribbon – so pretty and easy to work with, and it compliments the DSP I chose perfectly!

My Bee Box Club theme this month’s is showcasing different and creative ways to use the Gold Celebrations Acetate sheets that are part of the Beautiful Balloons Suite. It’s a great suite – perfect for birthdays but also any type of celebration!
I wanted to make a card using the Gold Celebrations Acetate in a creative way – and so I designed this card. It uses the Acetate sheets as the card base. So FUN! I cut the Acetate 4 1/4 x 11, and then used the Scoring Blade on my trimmer to score at 5 1/2″ – press firmly – the Acetate is thick! I then used my Bone Folder to burnish the score line.
Then I built my card – I used the scalloped rectangle – cut 2 – one for the inside and one for the front. By positioning the inside panel first, I then know exactly where to place the scalloped rectangle on the front.
I cropped several ballons from the DSP and added some twine – added my word panel and then some gems. So cute! The inside panel has just one balloon and a greeting (Azure Afternoon Ink).
This is not one of the cards featured in the Bee Box this month – but gives you another way to use these awesome Gold Celebrations Acetate sheets!
Here’s the recording of the card from my Facebook Live. I love this card and think it would be a fun card to get in the mail!
Hope you enjoy this card!

I love to make cards with different layouts – and the Envelope Flap card layout is a favorite of mine! You can see my previous envelope flap fun fold card (below) using my million dollar stamp set (Queen Bee)
here.
Here’s the recording of the card on made on today’s Facebook Live. I combined the Just my Type Stamp set with the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper for what I think is a pretty cute card!
The flap on the card holds the card shut and is tucked under the focal point of the card. In this case, I stamped the typewriter on a piece of Basic White cardstock and fussy cut it. The notebook paper was stamped and fussy cut as well. Colors of ink used are Pretty Peacock and Berry Burst – a fun combination!
MEASUREMENTS:
Pretty Peacock Card Base – 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″
Basic White Note Card – 5 1/4″ x 8″, score at 4″
DSP for the flap is 4″ square
Below is a photo of the card with the flap open.
And here is a view of the card opened. I love this greeting on the inside of the card. I hope you will give this card a try! It is really fun and quite easy!
