Card Making Magic - Scrapbook Kits to Cards

I'm not sure about you but I love to get the most bang for my buck.  With the new scrapbooking kits from Stampin' Up! you can definitely get more bang for your buck.  If you find you don't need all 3 lay outs you can use the remainder of the paper, stickers, and other pieces to create cards.  This week that is what Tammy and I did for our Teach it Tuesday.  Below I will share with you the two cards I have made, I will also share below a couple of links to my friends, Patty and Tammy, so you can see the cards they made with their "leftovers" from the Everyday You and Me scrapbooking kit.



Before I get to the nitty gritty of the cards I have to share something with you that I just discovered.  Here is a picture of my dog's color, tell me if I am wrong but I believe it coordinates rather well with the color scheme in this scrapbooking kit!  LOL 






Details for the "Grateful for You" card:   


  • Card base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (scored at 4 1/4")
  • Layer #1: 4" x 5 1/4" Two tone card stock
  • Layer #2: 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" pattern paper
  • Layer #3: Sticker from kit 5 1/8" long
  • Layer #4: 2 1/2" circle Two tone card stock
  • Layer #5: 2 1/4" circle white card stock
  • Interior: 4" x 5 1/4" white card stock

Details for the "So Much Joy" card



Card base: 11" x 4 1/4" (scored at 5 1/2")
Layer #1: 5 1/4" x 4" white card stock
               14 - 16 strips of 1/2" x 6" pattern paper*
Layer #2: 1 7/8" square (used Stylish Shapes)
Interior: 5 1/4" x 4" white and one 1/2" x 6" strip pattern paper

* To attach the strips you will want to go to the right starting on the right side of the center square.  In my video you will notice that I went to left which resulted in me having to piece the last side together awkwardly.  If you go to the right then all the pieces should fall into place perfectly fine. 

For more tips in making these two cards you can watch the video!
