For my Facebook Live this week, I created two whimsical cards featuring the Kindest Gnomes bundle. Gnomes are so popular recently and they are just plain cute! Like I said in my Live I never really thought about girl gnomes – I normally think of a Gnome as a bearded gent – but in this bundle there are girls gnomes too – and they are just as sweet as the gents!
Watch the video below to see how I made these cards. In the video you will be able to see the measurements used for the cards.
The first card uses the dies that are used to create a gnome – no stamping at all – just die cut and you will end up with this cute little fella! The dies have detail added – texture to the beard and stitching around the hat and shoes – love the extra detail! This card is a fun fold – it opens up from the top on a shorter panel.
I used Poppy Parade ink for this card – I pulled the color from the cute mushroom Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Storybook Gnomes DSP Pack.
The next card I made uses the Whimsical Woodland embossing folder – I think it is a perfect compliment to the gnomes. The mushroom and gnome were cropped right out of the Designer Series Paper – I LOVE when we can do that – it makes for creating a great card really quickly! There are two sheets in the DSP pack of mushrooms and gnomes – so you can make a lot of cards just by cropping the DSP!
This is also a fun fold – I cut a 1 inch strip off of the front panel of the card so that the inside panel would show. This card went together quickly – and I embellished with the Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems. I thought it would be fun to dress up the gnome’s hat – so added a big loopy bow made from White Baker’s Twine.
Here is the same card layout – with a different color palette – Poppy Parade card base and the mushroom DSP. Which is your favorite?
I love bringing you my Bee Boxes each month and know that you will love this month’s version!

Lucy was here on Friday and she has been wanting to do a Facebook Live – so we did one on my I’d Rather Bee Stampin’ page.
We created a cute Snowman (or for Lucy it was a Snow- woman!) gift card holder. It’s that time of year – I give a lot of Gift Cards and love this idea – inspired by a card I received from Connie Babbert.
With just a few supplies, most of which you probably have on hand, this gift card is quick and easy to make! The Gift Card slips behind the brim of the hat – and I love that it will fit in a regular envelope for mailing – if you need to put yours in the mail.
You can see how we created the gift card holder by watching my Facebook Live video below.
Here’s a view of the back of the gift card holder: Our words are from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set – it is such a great set for Christmas sayings.
MEASUREMENTS:
- Basic Black: 3 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 3 1/4; 3/4 x 4 1/4 (brim)
- Garden Green: small piece for punching holly leaves
- DSP: 3/4 x 3 1/2
- Basic White: 3 1/4 x 2 3/4 (face); 3 1/4 x 5 (back)
