Plentiful Plants - Double Easel Card - Video Tutorial


Today I'm sharing a Video showing you how I created these Double Easel Cards.

I used the Plentiful Plants stamp set and Perfect Plants dies, together with the Bloom Where You're Planted Designer Series Paper.

The cards fold flat and will fit inside standard envelopes, but you could create a box to hold them if you prefer - you will find a Video for a Box to hold this size card HERE.


The main colours used for this first card are Just Jade and Cinnamon Cider.


There is a 'normal' sized easel at the back and a mini one in the front - a super cute design!


Here is the card I created in the Video. The main colours used for this one are Polished Pink and Grey Granite.


The sentiment comes from the Free As a Bird stamp set - I wanted something small that could be used for many occasions.


Here is the Video ...

Note: If you use A4 as your standard sheet of card – follow the metric measurements (cms).

Plentiful Plants - A Little Note


I used the Plentiful Plants stamp set and Perfect Plants dies to create this simple, but beautiful card.

The plants and the little pots all had their edges daubed with the same colour ink ... this just gives them a little dimension and texture.


The White background panel was die cut using the wonderful Stitched Greenery die.

Hand-Penned Petals - Simple Tag Box - Video Tutorial


Today's Video shows you how to create this little Box to hold Tags.

It's really simple to do and a perfect project for a beginner to try. You can find the Video below.


The Box is 3" deep, 2 ⅛" wide and 2" tall ... and it will hold about 30 Tags.

I created this first one with a Christmas theme to hold all the Christmas Tags I make.

All the images used have been left over from previous projects. Normally these would either get made into cards or I would throw them away - but creating Tags with them is a quick and easy way to use them up. 


This is the Box I created in the Video. I wanted to make a non-Christmas one to hold all my other Tags.

The image decorating the front of the Box was created using the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set and coordinating Penned Flowers dies. It was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with the Stampin' Blends Alcohol markers.

Here is the Video ...
