Spring Card Set by Giorgia

Hello SRM friends, Giorgia here and today I want to share a set of cards I created as a gift for a friend: a card set is a little gift that you can make in minutes for your loved ones!

I made these three cards thinking of Spring, so I used pastel colors and flowers.
I used the same patterned papers and the same sketch to create the three cards, so they really are a set!

I used paper scraps to create the cards: when I need to make cards I always dig into my paper scraps box!I added die-cuts, a resin flower and machine stitching on all the cards.As sentiments I used SRM Stickers.

I put the cards in a clear card box: I adhered patterned paper inside it, decorated with SRM Stickers. 

I hope to have inspired you to make a card set: it is really easy and fun with SRM stickers.

Until next time,

ciao, Giorgia.

Bible Margins Cards by Christine

The new Bible Margins stamps don't have to just be used in your Bible!  There's a huge variety of crafts you can do with these beautiful stamps! Christine joining you today to share a simple set of cards featuring the Bible Margins Stamp Sets.

I used for this set of 3, one stamp from each of the new Bible Margins Stamp Sets.

This is the Bible Margins Rejoice Set.  I simply stamped this with a Distress Oxide Ink and then used a sponge to go over the butterfly with the same ink.  I added some pretty patterned paper from Paper House Productions to each card.

This one features the Bible Margins Light Stamp Set.  I love the different icons included in this set to represent light!

Finally I used the Bible Margins Love set!  This is a beautiful set featuring verses that are great for a variety of occasions...but most definitely will work for those Valentines as well!  

As you can see, these are not at all complicated cards but still turned out beautifully!  I love that these stamps just need a little bit of ink and paper to make them into a real treat!

Welcome Baby Cards by Melanie

Hello, Melanie joining you today to share some baby cards. Lately we have had quite a few babies to welcome into our family and circle of friends. I love to have a handmade card to accompany the gift. Here are a couple of baby cards I made to celebrate the birth of new little ones.

 SRM has THE best stickers for making cards! There are all kinds of sizes, fonts, shapes . . . it is awesome :) I love how they can be easily cut apart to fit exactly what you need.

For this Precious Baby card I used the Sentiment/Baby sheet as well as the We've Got Your Border/Pastel for "Hello Beautiful".

The Fancy Sentiments/Baby "Welcome Little One!" is such a sweet way to say just that. I added a bit of buttercream twine at the top of the banner piece for an extra special touch.

To finish off the look for each card, I added a border to the envelopes from We've Got Your Border/Baby Boy. 

Hope you enjoy these cards and are inspired to make some of your own :)

Thank You Card Set by Emma

Hello again crafters!  Emma here today to show you a quick and easy set of Thank You cards, with a gift box.  This set is the perfect hostess gift, or just handy to keep around for that 'I need a thank-you card' moment.

First of all, paint an A2-sized kraft window box with turquoise paint, or whatever colour you like.  The kraft surface will look amazing with any colour, or you could even leave the kraft as is.

 

SRM has so many 'Thank You' stickers to choose from!  I used several of the available sets: Thank You Sentiment, Thank You Stickers by the Dozen, We've Got your Border Thank You, and the Fancy Sentiment Thanks.

Cut and fold 6 card bases measuring 4"1/4 x 5"1/2, to fit inside the kraft box.  Select some patterned paper, and cut a rectangle of each to adhere to the front of your cards.  Decorate each card with the Thank You stickers however you like.

 Add a couple of stickers to your gift box, and there you have a set all ready to give away.

 

Thanks to YOU for visiting the blog today! 

Happy crafting :)

Birthday Card Set by Giorgia

Hello SRM friends, Giorgia here and today I want to share a set of birthday cards I created as a gift for a friend: a card set is a little gift that you can make in minutes for your loved ones!

I made these three cards matching them: they have the same patterned paper or the same die-cut in common, so they really are a set!

I chose a colorful patterned paper and I added on it a journal card with ballons. I used SRM Stickers as sentiment and a little foam glittered heart to add sparkle!

To realize the second card I used the same patterned paper as the first one, a glittered frame chipboard and a die-cut feather. As always SRM Stickers as the perfect stickers to make great sentiments!

For the last card I adhered many white SRM Stickers sticker stitches on pink cardstock to create my own unique background, then I added again the die-cut feather ( i used foam tape to create dimension) and another SRM Stickers for the sentiment. Three sequins make it sparkle!

I put them in an embossed glassine bag to give them away to my friend: I closed the bag with washi tape and added a label on it (I used black pen from Le Pen 4 Piece Set - Primary Colors to write on it).

I hope to have inspired you to make a card set: it is really easy and funny with SRM stickers.

Until next time,

ciao, Giorgia.

Back to School Card Set by Tobi

Hi there, it's Tobi Crawford here! As a teacher I always have a need for school-related cards, especially at the beginning and the end of the year. Councillors, admin, and fellow teachers need a special "kudos" this time of year, and small little note-cards are the perfect token of appreciation. 

Each card is a little different (that's for me - so I don't get bored), but also because I wanted to switch up the sentiments slightly to be a little more personal. 

The formula is easy: 

 1) ruled patterned paper

2) lined patterned paper

3) apple stickers (Live Life: School)

4) sentiments (Fancy Sentiment: Thanks)

5) twine (Solid Maraschino)

Thanks for stopping by!  See you again soon!

Birthday Card Set by Karen

Hello!  Karen here today with a fun birthday card ideas!

Do you still send out birthday cards to friends and family? I'm not always perfect at it, but I do enjoy sending out handmade birthday greetings. Last week I dug into my stash to look for a birthday card and discovered I was out (sorry to all those early August b-days).

When I need to make a lot of cards, I settle on one design that I can duplicate easily. For this set of birthday cards, I used my die-cut machine to cut and assemble several cupcakes. I find it easier to do several images at the same time and make a sort of assembly line process. To fancy up these cupcakes, I even added some glitter at their final stage.

Once all the cupcakes were assembled and dry, the cards were super easy and quick to put together. I used plain white cardstock for the base and two layers of patterned cardstock on the front. Then I added one or more cupcakes and a clear sentiment sticker or two. There are so many to choose from in SRM's collections.

As seen in the first photo, I packaged up a few to share. Five cards plus envelopes easily fit into a flat glassine bag touched simply with a ribbon, "just for you" sentiment, and a green stripe at the bottom.

Using Jute Twine on Cards by Shantaie

HI, I'm Shanatie and I love to make cards of all kinds! 

I wanted to share a couple of ways that adding a bit of colorful jute twine can make a card that is already pretty, really pop!

For this simple shaker card I stamped the back of my window with bible backgrounds little clouds and the flowers from just believe all built into a frame and filled with sequins, and loose flowers.

 A super cute card on its own, but that pop of wrapped jute twine and tiny bow, really pulls the bold colors together, and adds essential texture and softness.

For this card I created a circle window and stamped the happy sentiment from BIG happy and embossed it in gold, to add a layered greeting a happy birthday to you from the we've got your border sheet clear sticker was placed just below the embossed sentiment. A watercolor flower was embossed in white placed overlapping the window, a tiny bow of plum jute twine anchors the flower and adds a jolt of fibrous color in the same shades, its beautiful!

Try adding little bits or bows of jute twine to your cards, and layouts for a beautiful alternative to a bulky ribbon!

CAS Card Set by Melanie

Hello! Melanie here today to share a Clean-and-Simple (CAS) card set that I put together.

For this project, I challenged myself to using: 10 sheets of cardstock, 2 sheets of SRM stickers, and a variety of die-cuts and ribbon in my stash bowl.

Knowing that the majority of these cards would be used for mailing purposes, I kept them (mostly) flat. To add texture, I using embossing templates with my die cutting machine. 

I kept the designs fairly similar to keep the process streamlined. The first step was to cut the mats and layering pieces for each card. Then I ran the top layering pieces through the embossing. Next, I matched up the stickers, die-cuts, and ribbons. After adhering the pieces together for each card, I snapped this photo to show the simple and similar designs:

Then I adhered the card faces to the card bases and am so thrilled to have 20 cards ready to go! Here are a few of them close up:

My mom has a birthday this month. She loves getting handmade cards as a gift (she writes several letters and notes each month). I tucked a set of cards into one of the SRM white glassine bags, along with envelopes, stamps, and a writing pen. Then I decorated the bag a bit for fun.

Working this way was a good process for me. I could work in steps and bits of time here or there. Clean and Simple works really well for me :) Enjoy your day!

Mini Celebrate Card Set by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here.

Today, I'm sharing a sweet little card set with you. 

Aren't those little ice cream cones adorable?!...Yum! :) 

Now because these ice cream cones are on the smaller side, I wanted to use more than one on my cards. 

I simply thought of a couple different layouts to use with them and then made two cards each with the layouts. Once done, I did some coloring with colored pencils and then added a simple sentiment underneath my cones.

 To finish things off, I added all my cards and envelopes in a embossed glassine bag tied off with some jute twine. Easy peasy, right?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!
