Note: If you are already on my email list the project sheet has already been emailed to you.


Hello and welcome! Today I'm tackling how to combine old favorites with new products! There is a brand new bundle called Circle Sayings that will be available to customers starting May 2, 2023 and available for demonstrators to purchase now. You can also place preorder items in a Starter Kit and save! 

This project sheet takes simple card layouts with the By the Bay Designer Series Paper, a retiring paper pack that is currently on sale and we are going to pair it with this very versatile new bundle to make all occasion cards you will love! If you like the retiring items being used in this tutorial DO NOT WAIT to order them in my personal opinion.  Once last chance items are gone - they are gone! 

Here are the colors we are working with today




CARD 1

MEASUREMENTS

  • Card Base: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Night of Navy Cardstock)
  • By the Bay DSP: 4-1/8 x 5-3/8"
  • 2-3/8" Circle Punch (Night of Navy Cardstock)
  • Sheer Pool Party Ribbon - 2 Pieces (About 6" each)

INSTRUCTIONS

Stamp "Sending you a..." in VersaMark ink on the Night of Navy circle. Stamp "Warm Hello" in VersaMark ink as well. Sprinkle white heat emboss powder and heat set.

NOTE: I recommend using an anti-static tool on the cardstock prior to adding the VersaMark ink. This helps prevent the powder from sticking to anything other than the ink.

Add one piece of sheer pool party ribbon across the DSP. I secure ribbon edges behind DSP with glue and then glue the DSP to the card front.

Place circle on dimensionals and add to card, upper right. Tie a bow and secure to bottom of circle with a glue dot.

Pop circle up on dimensionals and add to center of the card.
