Pretty Pocket Cards – Two Ways!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Today I would like to show you how to create a simple pocket style card in two different ways. To begin, we will die cut a circle from the Ai Nested Circle Dies (5726) and a heart from the Ai Nested Heart Dies (5721) using some white 100lb cardstock.

Next, we will stamp our images onto the heart and circle using the Ai His Love Set (6150). We will also be using the little cluster of hearts and the little branch from this same set.

Once we have stamped the images, we can color them using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Bright Yellow, Haze Blue, Mint Leaf, Blue Green. Let’s also add some ink around the edges of these items using some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks in Picked Raspberry.

Let’s use some pretty patterned papers to create the pockets for our cards using the Ai Valentine Series 2 Cover PP (6182) and the Ai Valentines Cover PP (6022). These double-sided papers in the larger 6″x 9″ size will be perfect for the pockets. I will give you all of the dimensions for cutting and scoring in today’s video.

To each of the pockets, we will die cut a scalloped circle from the Ai Scalloped Circle Dies (6045) and a scalloped heart from the Ai Nested Heart Dies (5721). Don’t forget to keep the die cut pieces so that you can attach them to the stamped images.

We will then create the card inserts using some Ballet Slipper and Ocean Breeze cardstock and add a layer of white cardstock with the edges inked with that same Picked Raspberry ink that we used previously and to the other panel we will use Speckled Egg and Peacock Feathers.

Now we will die-cut a lovely, scalloped border using the Ai BJ Decorative Margin Dies (5972) and let’s also quickly stamp these with our sentiments from the Ai Encouragement Sentiment Set (5949). Let’s also stamp the sentiments on the card panels.

Next, place the heart and circle pieces onto the card panels by inserting the card panel all the way into the pocket and then attaching the shapes through those openings…this is a really easy way to line these up perfectly every time!

And we can also die-cut a little tab from the Ai Storybook Template Dies (6121) in the coordinating patterned paper and add these to the side and top of our card panels. We will also tie on a bit of pretty velvet ribbon to each tab.

Finally, we can add a few sparkly gems in coordinating colors to the front of the pockets!

Holiday Favor Jars!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

Let’s have some fun creating these adorable little Holiday Favor Jars! Making party favors is absolutely one of my favorite things to do! We will be using the brand-new Ai Christmas Keepsake Set (6104) which includes an adorable snowman, reindeer, elf, and Christmas tree. There is also a little wooden basket/barrel that will fit any of these images and will coordinate perfectly with the other set in this series…Ai Fall Keepsake Set (6105). You can easily mix and match the little tin bucket and this wooden container to hold any of these little images!

To begin today’s project, we will stamp, color and die cut all of the images. All of the coloring will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Deep Red, Peach Pink, Lt Pink, Geranium Red, Wine Red, Yellow, Bright Yellow, Orange, Flesh Colour, Mustard, Beige, Mid Brown, Haze Blue, Blue, Deep Blue, May Green, Green, Lt Gray, Gray.

I used some small Mason Jars for this project, and I will show you exactly which ones I used in today’s video. We will first die cut the lacy borders using the Ai BJ Decorative Margin Dies (5972). These nice long (7″) dies will fit perfectly around the jars. We will die cut the border once and then run it through the die cutting machine again to die cut the other side. There is a little trick to doing this which I will also show you in the video.

Now we will grab the Ai Winter Woodland Cover PP (5964) to add to this lacy border. Again, this paper is a little longer and will allow us to go around the jars nicely. We can now wrap these around the jars and add our little images to the front of each.

For the top of the lids, we will die cut a small circle using the Ai Winter Woodland PP 6″x6″ (5963) in a pretty red. Then we will add a snowflake to each using the Ai Lg Snowflake Dies (5353). And to the center of each snowflake, we will add a few sparkly confetti sequins.

We will wrap the top of the jars with some red and white baker’s twine and tie on a cute little tag using a few sentiments from this same stamp set!

Then we can add a few white paper shreds, that will look like snow and then add some festive holiday treats!

There is currently a bundled set which includes these two new container sets as well as these other products and is linked below:

This 4pc Keepsake Bundle includes: https://tidd.ly/4aoQMYP

  • 6104 – Christmas Keepsake Set
  • 6105 – Fall Keepsake Set
  • 6107 – Snowman Hugs Set
  • 6119 – Elf Puppet Set

I’m also including another video from the Ai Woodland Series that was released over the weekend that you may have missed, and I will link it here for you:

Joyful Snowmen Gift Card Pocket Cards!

Hello and Welcome!

Watch video tutorial here!

I’ve got a brand-new winter/holiday stamp and die set to show you today…and you are going to love it. The set Ai Snowman Hugs Set (6107) is the cutest collection of snowmen and lots of sentiments, as well as the coordinating dies! We will be using two of the snowman images today to create our Gift Card Pocket Cards!

Let’s go ahead and stamp and die-cut the images. For coloring we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Peach Pink, Orange, Ice Blue, Sea Green, Haze Blue, Persian Green, Lt Red Grape, Deep Red Grape, Lt Gray, Ever Green, Mid Green, Beige, Mid Brown. Now we can add some nice details to the images using a white gel pen. Let’s add a plaid and some polka dots for added interest.

Next, let’s create the card base. We will add a pretty open scalloped border using the Ai BJ Decorative Margin Dies (5972). This nice long 7″ margin die is perfect for your longer projects or scrapbook pages and journals. I’ll show you in today’s video how to die-cut just the border…it’s quick and easy to do!

Let’s create some pretty backgrounds for the front and inside of the cards using the Ai Christmas Magic PP (5853). We will select a pretty polka dot for the outside of both cards and a stripe and plaid for the insides.

We can glue those in place and next we can create the gift card pocket which will match the border on the front of the card perfectly. And to do this, we will use the Ai BJ Pocket Die Set (5985) which also includes a beautiful cross die!

We can fold the pockets along the score lines and add adhesive to secure them on the inside of the card. We will also cut another piece of leftover patterned paper for a layer on the pockets.

For the “Joy” sentiment we will use the Ai Jesus and Joy Die Set (5986). We will die-cut the word three times, once from some glitter cardstock, and two times more from some 100lb white cardstock. By gluing these together, we will get a nice thick sentiment for the front of the card.

Let’s die-cut some snowflakes using that same die set from that same glitter paper and add them to the front of the cards and on the gift card pocket on the inside of the card.

For a bit of sparkle, we will add some pretty gems in lilac and green to each of the snowflakes on the front of the cards! Just insert your gift card or note card or both and you are all set!
