 Hello, my stamping friend.

Sweat as a Peach bundle is so much fun to create with. Here is a quick and easy card that highlights beautiful designer paper:

Start with piece of DSP measuring 3 7/8” wide and 4” tall. Cut diagonally from right to left side (about 1” from the corners). Flip bottom piece, adhere to 4 x 5 1/4” Basic White. Stamp sentiment in the opening; adhere to card base and decorate with peaches. 

I absolutely love this layout! Give it a try. And you can make 9 cards from one sheet if 12 x 12 paper!

Sweat as a Peach in Review - Card Holder

 Hello, mu stamping friend.

Last few weeks I was creating a lot with Sweat as a Peach bundle. I also had a class featuring that bundle with everything 'peachy' - from cards, 3Ds, deserts,  drinks - you name it.

One of the projects we did was a Card Holder. It is very easy one and only requires one sheet of the paper (8 1/2 x 11).

The idea came from Rose Grunewald and I slightly adopted the measurements.

Measurements :

  • Balmy Blue CS: 4 ½ x 11”; 3 ½ x 11” 
  • Old Olive: 3 x 4”; 2 ½ x 4”; 2 5/8 x 3 ¾” 
  • DSP: 2 7/8 x 3 7/8; 2 3/8 x 3 7/8”; 

Score 4 ½ x 11” piece at 5 7/8 and 6 ¾” on 11” side 2. 

Score 3 ½ x 11” piece at 4 ½; 5 3/8; 9 7/8 and 10 ¾” on 11” side and at 7/8” on 3 ½” side. This will be a box to hold the cards. 

Watch a video how to make the Holder.
