Happy Tuesday! Welcome to another MCM Blog Post! If you need a QUICK, EASY, FABULOUS card layout this is it!
Last night we started off with just THREE pieces of paper - a card base, a strip of designer paper and a small square ... and we added in a shape or stamped/die cut image and ended up with a quick and easy card in mere minutes. We then added some texture and a few embellishments to"step it up" ... but TOTALLY not necessary! My layout came from scraps that I had lying on my desk from last week. Use what you've got and create with what time you have. Don't over think it! (*says the girl who TOTALLY overthinks things lol).
These are the cards I made in our hour together ...
We started off CRAZY simple! A strip of 3 1/2" x 1 1/4" designer paper and a 2 1/2" circle! Added a fussy cut image, some gems and twine and DONE! I freaking LOVE this card!
We then took it just one wee step further, by adding in a 3" x 2 3/4" embossed layer and ditched the circle and BOOM! Fancier in no time flat! The embossing folder isn't listed in the product list at the end of the post, as it isn't "current" yet. It is called So Swirly and will be available to customers starting May 1, 2024 ...
This one uses the Latte Love Suite of products, with the Something Fancy stamp set ...
This one I love so much I used it for my swap card and made 30 of them! Again, the items used aren't listed, as they aren't available until May 1st. They are the Country Flowers Bundle, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and Country Lace Embossing Folder. SO easy but SO lovely!
Here is the "recipe" of the pieces you need to prep ...
... and here is the Mystery Card Monday (MCM) Facebook Live replay, showing you how to cut the papers and put all the pieces together ...
That's it for this week.
