This week one of the things on my “To-Do” list was to get a set of cards made for our Blessed2Stamp Group Card Swap.
There are four of us that signed up for it so I needed four cards. Instead of creating all one card I decided to a set, mixing up the designs.
I created these cards on my Youtube Live!
When I was live on YouTube today I got a call in the middle of it! Whoops. YouTube cut me off, so my live ended up being in two parts.
I’ve edited everything into one video, and speed up the card making. All the measurements are below each if you want to recreated these.
All 4 of these cards were created with the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper! My goal for these cards were to keep them simple, and use a minimal amount of supplies.
Card #1
In the full length video HERE you will see that this card I created differently the first time I made it. I didn’t like the first designs so I changed it up.
I like this design much better.
Measurements For This Card:
- Real Red Card Stock – 8-1/2″ x 11″ , Cut at 5-1/2″, Score at 4-1/4″ *Emboss with embossing folder.
- Old Olive Card Stock – Scalloped Circle.
- Basic White Card Stock – 5-1/2″ x 3″ (Scalloped layer under pattern paper) & Circle for sentiment.
- Heartwarming Hugs Pattern Paper – 2-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (Green Layer) 1-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (Red Layer)
Card #2
I used the Words Of Cheer stamp set to add the back ground stamping. I used Mossy Meadow Card Stock, with Mossy Meadow Ink to create a tone on tone effect.

I love that the sentiment on this card covers the entire circle. When stamping this sentiment on the circle you have to careful to line it up well so it will fill the entire circle.
