Make 3 Cards in Half an Hour - MCM Layout Nov 17, 2025

*** Edited - nope - didn't get this done Thursday - it's now Sunday! lol

Happy Thursday! (... assuming I FINISH this post before the end of the day! lol). It's been a crazy week with Alicia out of town, Becca out every night and Craig doing a 2 days prep and "sit around and wait" for some medical tests. Today is another busy one with doctor appointment for me (gotta get that blood pressure down!), visiting Dad and a *little* Black Friday shopping! So let's get to it ...

This weeks MCM is a fun one. You can make just ONE card ... or ... by chopping THREE pieces of DSP at the same time, you can make three cards with the Cut, Stack, Shuffle idea. Here are the cards we made .

This batch was made with the Kintsugi Inspirations paper and sentiment from Pattern of Friendship (which apparently is now retired!).

With Pastels not being my "go to" colour family I really had to stretch myself on this one, but the die cuts from the Wildflower Birthday DSP helped immensely! The Pattern of Friendship sentiment was used again.

These two are the "basic" layout, using just one piece of DSP and maintaining the pattern. Make sure you watch the video replay below to get the cuts right! The one on the right uses Beautiful Gallery DSP and the sentiment is from the NEW bundle Friendly Foliage ...

At the end of the "show" I showed you these two cards, using the Jolly Holly Hybrid Embossing Folder. The one on the left uses the All Season Velvet paper that I have finally started playing with. It adds some GREAT texture and interest to your projects!

If you want to make some cards using this layout, use this "recipe" for the pieces you need to prep ...

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.
