Petal Garden Memories & More Gift Bag

Coming to the end of the series now... with what may be the simplest handmade gift bag ever!

A medium sized 4 3/4" high gift bag using the Gift Bag Punch Board... using a piece of 6" x A4 long Thick Whisper White card (29.8cm or about 11 3/4" for my US readers) decorated with just one of the Petal Garden Memories & More cards... and Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon to close off...

No excuse for me not to quickly and prettily wrap up anything to gift now... though I may just add a few pretty flowers when it is time to go...

Petal Garden Memories & More Large Double Z Joy Fold card

The last of the trio of Double Z Joy Fold cards using the Petal Garden Memories & More card pack and Petal Garden papers today...

A large 14.8cm Square (almost 6" for my US readers) card... with simple decoration care of 3 of the Memories & More cards for an easy make!

I just have to add a greeting to the inside when the time is right... as the Happy Birthday Gorgeous "It's Your Day" sentiment on the front will suit most occasions...

Memories & More Petal Garden Garden Bench #3

Onto Day 3 of my series of greeting cards made from a Memories and More card pack series....

Oh I couldn't believe how well 2 of the cards from the Memories & More Petal Garden card pack could be simply cut to produce this little scene on a re-sized U Fold card... (original sized U Fold version tutorial shared here)

Bench seat created using the Wood Crate dies and Window Sheets... greetings from Happy Birthday Gorgeous and little heart from Bookcase Builder

All finished off with roses fussy cut from the Petal Garden papers... though small flowers could be just as easily stamped to avoid the fussy cutting if that isn't your thing!!!

Remember to email me if you are interested in a Class in the Mail (UK & Europe only) or a Tutorial Bundle... happy to oblige if sufficient interest... 

And I can hear some of you asking ... which cards did I use from the Memories & More Petal Garden pack? Well these cards... one of the large and one of the small.... 

Memories & More Petal Garden Double Z Joy Fold Card #2

Continuing my little series of Memories & More Petal Garden card pack & Petal Garden cards...... hee hee... that is a bit of a mouthful!

So another re-sized Double Z Joy Fold card for Day 2... a landscape version this time... this being a variant of this standard sized one shared earlier... centimetres here and inches here

Love this colourway... Calypso Coral, Old Olive & Pool Party... and I particularly love the paper on the back section of the card! So gorgeous...

Greetings from Colorful Seasons... and finished off with Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon... 

Memories & More Petal Garden Double Z Joy Fold Card #1

Oh my... these Petal Garden papers are so pretty! I wasn't immediately taken by them in the catalogue but I was "sold" as soon as I saw them in the flesh and in use... so glad I keep an open mind!

And even better they co-ordinate with one of the new Memories & More card packs, the Petal Garden one obviously! 

These card packs are perfect for memory keeping, cardmaking or any other project you wish to make... making creating and life really easy... 

So me being me ... I had to tweak a few of my recent card fold designs to incorporate the card sizes in the pack... and as there are 2 of each card in the pack (plus extra single speciality cards as well as image and wording stickers) - I split the cards between 2 for a class kit... 

So I have a few fancy fold cards but simple to make to share with you over the next few days...

This first one is an upright or portrait Double Z Joy Fold card... which is a variant of this standard sized one shared earlier... inches here and centimetres here... 

This is sized so it still just fits in a C6 envelope... but I don't think it would fit in a standard US Medium/A2 envelope (certainly not a SU! Medium one without an extra score to add a bit of extra height!!)  but I would love it if one of my US followers could tell me if there is an alternative slightly higher envelope in the US!? 

Now thinking out loud... this whole series would make a lovely Class in the Mail for crafters in UK & Europe... and a Tutorial Bundle for everyone else... just email and let me know if you would be interested... and in the meantime  - I will be working out the details ...
