Pretty Perennials... such happy cards in happy colors!

True confession.. I bought the stamp set for the word "happy" I just love this big stamp and the fun font!

Here are cards with this fun, playful set.  I'll be using this a lot, so stay tuned.  


Here are a few close up shots. 



The cards above were designed by my talented team mate Susan Morrison at 207ColorfulCreations.com

This card was designed by Dena Rekow - it's her million dollar set (she got to co-design it!)

So fun... so many colors and patterns work. Let me know if you would like directions or dimensions! MaryKate@MaryKateScott.com

A "flap fold" card with In Bloom with a quick video

Hi all ...  I created a quick video last night click here to see it to make this card.  Dimensions of the patterned paper: 5 1/2 x 12, score on the long side at 4 and 8.



The left photo is closed, middle is open.

Tip: cut the corners off the long pattern paper. Use your trimmer to place the edge of your paper on the edge of your trimmer and then the fold in the gutter. It's easy and the video shows you how. You can measure 1 3/4 from each side and cut to the fold but the trimmer makes it easy :)

The right photo:  You'll see I cut the slit at the front 1" from the fold (bottom of the front of the card) and it's 3" long. I use a post it to make the measurement easy.  


My inside is 4 x 5 1/4 and it looks pretty stamped or left white.  I used Thick Basic White to give the card a bit of "heft".


This can be a fun card or an invitation or a gift card holder


I used the free In Bloom paper (free with a $50 order) and my ink is Rococo Rose.  The matching dies are super pretty with a pierced detail to them.


Stamps, dies and paper is all in my online store...but check your stash, this card layout works with just about any floral set (I know you have one!) and any pretty patterned paper.  


Let me know if you have any questions!  MaryKate@MaryKateScott.com

Snailed It Valentines a 6x6 one sheet wonder

The Snailed It set is fun whimsical and great for many occasions - Valentine's, birthdays, just a hello card!



This series of 5 cards is made with 1/4 of the 12x12 designer paper (so it's a 6 x 6 one sheet wonder). The template below will help you make 5 cards and have some left over envelope decor.  

Tip: make sure your paper in the direction of North to South... so the hearts run across the page. Start with the 3 vertical cuts on the right hand side, then cut the 4 1/4 piece into 4 sections.



I'd love to have you at my Snailed It Class March 21st 1-430 online. We will make 8 projects (6 cards and 2 treat packaging projects).  It's $50 for the project kit and stamp set, with shipping included.  Add $20 for the matching punch! RSVP by emailing me at MaryKate@MaryKateScott.com

I'll post a few other snail projects over the next few weeks with more ideas for this super fun set!!

Don't forget we have just 1 month left in Sale-A-Bration (spend $50 and get your pick of a free item) it ends early this year on February 28. 

As part of Sale-a-Bration there’s a super join-offer of an extra 200 sheets of designer paper, so total cost is $99, you pick $125 of anything you like, free shipping (plus the free 200 sheets of paper), and there’s no further obligation.  We have lots of fun team perks including a free online class In Bloom March 2, 9 6-730pm, (team members get a free project kit and stamp set see page 45), IDEAS tutorials and more.
