5 Summer Cards One Paper Pad plus FREE Card Sketches

Hi everyone! Today I am back with 5 cards created with the ModaScrap Crazy Summer collection and a video tutorial, too!

These cards are really easy to make and do not require any coloring, which also makes them perfect for last minute card making! I also prepared a free downloadable document with all the card sketches I used today! You can get it here!

In addition to the 6×6″ Crazy Summer paper pad, I used the Xoxo sentiment stamp set, Woodstock white paper, and some basic shapes dies.
Actually, anything except for the circles could also be created without any dies at all.

I started by splitting the papers in the Crazy Summer 6×6″ paper pad in two different categories: “solid” backgrounds and patterned paper style.

I also set aside one of the patterned paper sheets for my focal points. I cut out the images in this focal points sheet, using some scissors. I grouped the cut outs in 5 different groups, one for each card.

I then sketched 5 card different sketches on a notebook, to get a feel for the designs I wanted to create. This also helped me in choosing what papers I wanted on each card and what focal points I was going to use on each design. If you are interested, you can follow this link for a free template with all the card sketches I used today.

I then started trimming and die cutting the rest of the papers, building my card bases one at the time. I did not glue the images to the card fronts until I had them all ready, just to be sure that I could still make some last minute changes, if I wanted to.

For the greetings on my cards I used the Xoxo stamp set, and I stamped the sentiments directly on the cards.
I finished everything off by coating the images with a glitter brush pen and by adding some clear Nuvo Drops.

And that’s it for today! Don’t forget to check out the video tutorial to see all the cards and for an in depth explaination on how I made them!

Thank you all so much for stopping by and have a great day!
