hello my crafty friends well today we
are going to continue on with our
holiday card making series
so i have another fun stamp set to share
with you
which features a variety of different
images that you can use
to create cards for three different
occasions
plus i will share three different card
designs with you
that you can use over and over again to
create
even more fun card ideas hi it's lynn
dunn from stamptastic designs thanks so
much for joining
me today in this episode of stamptastic
tv
i have nine different card ideas to
share with you
that feature the flight of fancy stamp
set
from stampin up now this particular
stamp set has a variety of different
images in it
that are perfect for christmas halloween
and even some love themed cards so i
will be showcasing
three different card layouts or three
different card designs for you
today and each of those card designs
will feature a christmas a love themed
and a halloween themed card okay
so these are the three different card
layouts or card designs that i'm going
to share today so i am going to focus on
halloween cards since halloween is the
first holiday that's going to be coming
up
but the card layouts can be used to
create christmas cards or
love themed cards or really cards for
any occasion
so let's get started okay so here's the
first card that we are going to make
it's a quick and simple little card
design let me show you how to make it so
you're going to start with a piece of
basic black
for the base of your card then you are
going to cut a one and a half
by five and a quarter inch piece of
patterned paper
and we're simply going to adhere that to
the bottom
of the card front now i am using some of
the fun
pattern papers from the plaid tidings
designer series paper pack
but you can use any pattern paper that
you have on hand
next you're going to cut a five and a
quarter by four inch piece of white
card stock so this is the piece that you
will do all of your stamping on
okay so i've already done the stamping
here on mine and did my coloring
so that you didn't have to watch me
color everything
but basically i just stamped everything
with black memento ink and then colored
it in with some stamping blends
now you can use whatever coloring tools
that you prefer
to color in your image then i did a
little stamping on the side with a fun
stamp set
called festive corners so all of the
stamped images are done up so that you
can stamp them right in the corner
so it's kind of fun to use for all these
different cards
especially since the flight of fancy
stamp set
does not come with any sentiments okay
so once you have everything colored in
and stamped then you can go ahead and
tear the bottom of the card stock
so i just start on one end and just kind
of slowly tear
so that i can create you know kind of
this
worn look along the bottom of this card
stock piece
so the slower you go the better the look
okay so now that we have our paper torn
and all of our images stamped we can go
ahead
and adhere this to our card front and
this will overlap nicely onto the
designer paper so it gives it a fun
little accent
right there on the bottom and then for
the finishing touch you can just
embellish it with
some rhinestones or whatever other
embellishments that you have
and then on the inside i just did a
little bit more stamping with that
corner stamp
all right so that's the halloween card
but as i mentioned
you can create christmas and you can
create some love themed cards so this is
the little christmas card i created
it's the exact same design i just
colored in the little angel
using some different colors and of
course use some christmas paper
and then i also created a little love
themed card so this one is really
adorable
i think this one's probably my favorite
so
again i just used you know that same
pattern paper this is the
plaid tidings and then stamped my image
and did a little bit of coloring
so i have three different cards for
three different occasions using just
one design and that one stamp set
okay the second card idea that i have to
share with you is kind of a
pretty simple angle card design so i
like kind of
adhering things on an angle just to give
my cards a little different look
so let me show you how to make this card
so you are again going to start with a
piece of black card stock for the base
of your card
and then you will be cutting two pieces
of patterned paper
at one by six inches so the pattern
paper i'm using
comes in a six by six inch pack so i
really just cut a one inch strip
from this particular pattern paper
so i have two of them here and we're
just going to adhere these across our
card
on an angle and then you're just going
to cut a
two and three quarter by about five and
a quarter inch piece of white
card stock then go ahead and stamp your
image on there and color it in
and this piece we're going to adhere
across our designer paper
on that angle so let me show you how i
typically do this
so the first thing i want to do is just
kind of lay my
design right in the center of my card i
don't have that adhered yet
then i'm going to take the first piece
of designer paper
and just kind of lay it on an angle up
here towards the top
and i always cut my paper a little bit
longer because then we can trim off
the edges and then we'll kind of lay her
on an angle here and then i'll kind of
eyeball this and
adhere the second piece across the
bottom
so that just helps you kind of keep
everything on an angle
and then this piece i just added some
adhesive to the back and we're just
going to adhere
this right over the top of our designer
paper
so i like using this technique where you
leave everything hang off the edges
because then you can take your scissors
and you can just follow along on the
side of your cardstock
your card base just follow along that
edge
and cut off these extra pieces
okay so that's how you create the design
of the card
and then i'll just show you this
completed one so i just
stamped a little greeting here and cut
it out by hand with my scissors and just
added it to
the card and then of course i added some
embellishments as well
okay so this is the halloween card and
then of course i have two more
designs so this one is the christmas
card and again i just used christmas
themed
paper and you know my christmas themed
image
and then the third card that i created
was this little
love themed card so again i just used
some products
that coordinated with this particular
image
so you'll notice it's the exact same
design in this one i added a little bit
more
torn paper so i cut my pieces a little
bit wider than one inch but i added this
little
torn paper just to give it a little
different look so it's really the exact
same
card layout or the same design i just
switched out
the pattern papers and the stamped
images to come up with three different
card ideas
okay and this last card idea is another
quick and simple card design this time i
did a little bit of embossing
in the background but i used the same
stamped images
to create my halloween card and the
other cards that i will share with you
so let me show you how to make this one
so again you're going to start with a
piece of black
stock for the base of your card in this
case i used the cobweb
3d embossing folder just to add some
texture
to the card front then i cut a two
by four and a quarter inch piece of
patterned paper and just adhered
it right across the center of the card
front
next i created just a little label so
you can use any label maker or you can
just cut a strip of paper so this is
just three quarter inches wide
and it's about three and three quarter
inches long
and then i just stamped one of the words
from the festive corners a stamp set
right down this
down this label and then i'm just going
to adhere that
to the left side of the card here and
then this time i created a little cutout
of the little witch image from the
flight of fancy stamp set
so instead of using the full image like
i showed you i just kind of cut out
this little image so that i could pop
this up on the card
so i colored it in the exact same way
that i colored all the other ones
and then i simply embellished the card
front with just a couple of little
rhinestones
okay and like the other cards that i
created
i also made some christmas cards so
here's my little christmas angel
with the same kind of layout same
concept
and then here is the little love themed
card so
you can see in the background let me
bring this one back you can see that i
embossed some little snowflakes in the
background
on the christmas one and then here i
just used
some little dots on the background of
this one
so again it's the exact same card layout
just different images different colors
and different patterned paper
so there you go now you have nine
different card ideas
created with only three different card
layouts
