Gift Package of Mini Cards Blog Hop

It is so much fun to make a Gift Package of Mini Cards and they are so handy to give as a small token of appreciation. For this month’s Technique Tuesday blog hop I made six 3″ x 3″ cards- 2 each of 3 designs. It doesn’t take much to decorate the small square, add a stamp to the envelope, and package them up in one of the 3 1/8″ x 3 1/8″ Acetate Card boxes sold by Stampin’ Up! A belly band or two and a ribbon is all you need to dress up the package and it’s ready to go.

To make these cards, I started with two 6″ x 3″ pieces of card stock in Misty Moonlight, Evening Evergreen and Blackberry Bliss and scored each at 3″. Then I cut 12 2 3/4″ x 2 3/4″ pieces of Basic White. 6 pieces will remain blank and be adhered to the inside of the card base. The other 6 pieces were stamped in matching colors of ink with images from the following stamp sets: Let’s Set Sail, On the Horizon and So Sentimental. Each envelope was stamped with a corresponding image in the lower left hand corner.

To make the belly bands cut a piece of Home & Heart patterned paper to 2 1/2″ x 9″ and wrap it around the assembled acetate box. Place a few glue dots underneath to keep it in place as it does not need to be removed to take the cards out. Next, cut a piece of Misty Moonlight card stock 1 1/4″ x 9″, wrap around the first belly band, and adhere in the back. Then tie the White Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon and Misty Moonlight ribbon in a bow around that. Viola! You are done.

I hope will you try making mini cards. They are quick and fun and sure to bring a smile to someone’s face. They are the perfect size to pop in a gift bag as well.

Symbols of Fortune stamp camp

Please join me and 12 talented Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world for an amazing Stamp Camp experience. This Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp will feature the softly colored and shimmery suite of products. You can see each of the items here:

Product List

Symbols Of Fortune Suite Collection (English)

This Stamp Camp includes a card kit to make 12 cards…one designed by each of the demonstrators on the Creativity Abounds team. In this card kit you will get the card bases and any pieces of card stock needed to make the card. If a die other than the ones included in the Crane of Fortune Bundle is used, it will be cut for you. Envelopes are included as well.

You will use your Symbols of Fortune patterned paper, Crane of Fortune Bundle, Soft Succulent Satin Shimmer ribbon, Polished Dots, and inks and adhesives.

This kit will come with an emailed written tutorial for each card as well as “unlisted” videos to show you how to make the cards.

On April 29 -30 , 2022, you will be part of an exclusive Facebook Group where we will have 12 LIVE presentations showing another project made with the suite. As the group is international, some LIVES will be at less convenient times, but they will all be recorded in the FaceBook group and you will have access to them forever. You are invited to post your cards, comment and play along with challenges in this exclusive group as well.

The only fee to participate in this Stamp Camp is purchase through me of the Symbols of Fortune Suite (item #157667- and all the products are included with this one number). If you already own these products, please substitute any other $82.75 (before shipping and tax) of products. Please use the link below as it includes my HOST CODE (3Z2Q2CK2).

You can order by clicking on this link: SHOP WITH CHATNCRAFT WITH LORRAINE and this will input the host code for you automatically. I will be notified of your purchase and will enroll you in Stamp Camp. Please be sure to order as soon as possible to ensure that nothing becomes unavailable!

NOTE: The Symbols of Fortune Suite is not available at this time because the Polished Dots are on backorder. You can participate in the Stamp Camp if you order all of the items individually (you’ll still save 10% on the Stamp & Die bundle) and add a different embellishment such as Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels. Please use the HOST CODE 3Z2Q2CK2.

About a week before Stamp Camp you will receive your card kit in the mail. Then a few days before the Symbols of Fortune Stamp Camp starts, you will receive an invitation to join the exclusive Facebook group.

If you have any questions, please email me at chatncraftwithlorraine@gmail.com.
