Another Cute Easy Card from Dawn Griffith

When I saw her video this morning I had to make one of these quickly before I forgot about it!  LOL!  She has a good instructional video, with complete instructions on how to do this card.

I grabbed some white cardstock and some orange paper that I never use for anything since this is my pattern to put in my file.  Orange isn't one of my favorite colors to work with.  The area for the stamped image is pretty narrow so, again, I just grabbed the first stamp I found in my JetMax storage that would fit onto the space.

It's an A2 sized card after it's folded.  There are only two cuts and then you just do some score lines for the folds to make the image stand up.  Super simple, once you make one and can see how it all goes together.

I'm thinking maybe I need to do some of these with Cooper's picture on them for birth announcements for family and friends.

Bride Card

Dawn Griffith shared a card she made today using a template by Jan Tink.  It's very simple to make and turns out really cute.

Using Jan's template, I cut the skirt and the torso out of cardstock.  The heart shaped bodice is from Doodlecharms and I tweaked the shape using Design Studio.  The Brocade Cuttlebug folder is the one I used to do the embossing.  The base of the bouquet is  the 1 3/4" SU scalloped circle punch, the flowers are the Bitty Punch.  I added some stick on pearls for the necklace and some Liquid Pearls for the flower centers.

This card can literally be completed in about 10 minutes.  I whipped mine out to post for the One Hour Challenge on the Cricut MB this evening.

Just think how special this would be if you used the bride's wedding colors!

When I make the next card using Jan's idea, I plan to use Liquid Pearls for the necklace also.  Those tiny sticky back pearls are a booger to hang onto and get applied evenly spaced! LOL!

If you want the instructions for making the card, go to Dawn's website.  Just Google Dawn Griffith, then scroll down to the photo of the card.  She has a link there to Jan's website with the template and information.
