I have a quick Thank You card to share today. I always need these and try to have different ones on hand. This one is definitely a “make multiples” of card.
I used the so adorable stamp set called Press On for this card. This stamp set is so versatile and has sayings that are just right. For this card I kept everything really simple. No coloring, no embellishments, and no dimensionals. All of those No are not like me at all!!!
I made my own background paper by stamping the line of coffee cups in Versamark Ink. I think this watermark look works best on lighter colors. So I went with Seaside Spray for that layer. The cups are not quite long enough to go all the way across the card. But it was fairly easy to eyeball lining it up with a staggered line so the same cups are spread around.
The large cup is simple stamped in Misty Moonlight. I added the heart stamp with Magenta Madness to go along with the sentiment in that color. I also added a thin layer of it between the two blues of the base. I love the bright Pop that color brings.
I really wanted to add “something” to finish off the card. But decided it was going to stay as a more simple one. And i made quite a few as customer Thank you cards. I hope you will give this one a try as well.
Today’s measurements are:
4 1/4 X 11, scored and folded at 5 1/2
4 X 5 1/4
3 7/8 X 5 1/8
3 X 2 1/2

I used to love making table favors and place settings cards for holiday meals. Now we tend to not get together with as many people at one time, so I haven’t made these in a while. Today I am bringing them back and with a bit of a twist.
This project is a combination of place setting and utensil holder. I did not add a name, but I would place a smaller layer in the center of the DSP with the person’s name. And before I get started on these particulars, I want to say that I have found a Wonderful Thing!!!! The sentiment is stamped with the Cinnamon Cider Ink. To me anyway, it looks like it is stamped in a metallic ink. I have used this ink with Bronze and Gold and it matches perfectly. I think that is a great find! Be sure to try it yourself.
Ok, now on to the directions. The holder is actually the same size as a pull out card that I have made. And if you were purchasing the utensil holders, they are a tad narrower. But I like having the extra bit of room because the card stock doesn’t flex as well as some of the fabric holders do.
The sweet sentiment is from the Country Home stamp set. I love every stamp in this set. The base of the project is Mint Macaron and cut to 4 1/4 X 11 and is scored at 5 1/2 and 10. Fold and burnish both folds. The small 1″ fold, folds to the outside and I have it taped down. On the long end, I rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio Punch.
The layers are Brushed Metallic card stock (OMG this paper is beautiful!!!) and the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper. I stamped on Very Vanilla with the Cinnamon Cider Ink and punched the ends with the Lovely Label Punch.
I had purchased some beautiful napkins last year after Thanksgiving for just such a project. And I have No Idea where they are!!! So I used a piece of old DSP, which is actually similar to the napkins, to represent the napkin. Also, by having a bit more room inside the fold, I have room for a little treat. I added a Merci Chocolate in the center. The pretty foil wrapping on those matches the theme as well.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s blog hop. I have directions for today’s project just below. And the supplies are listed at the very bottom of the post.
Directions:
base is 4 1/4 X 11, scored at 5 1/2 and 10. Fold and burnish the scored lines.
Fold the small section to the front and secure with tape or glue.
The sentiment layer is 3 3/4 X 3/4 for the foil and 3 3/4 X 5/8 for the Vanilla
Use the Lovely Label punch to punch each end of the sentiment.
The front layers are 4 X 3 3/4 and 3 3/4 X 3 1/2
Place the layers on the front and the sentiment.
Add Tear & Tape to the inside edge of the front section. Place the tape against the edge of the paper.
Lay your silverware inside the pocket and then adhere the sides. Otherwise it is extremely tight and everything will not fit inside.

Welcome to InKing Royalty’s September Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are enjoying a year of celebrations – this month’s projects are all about Halloween. Prepare yourself for wonderful mix of spooky, scary and sweet. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
I am one that likes the fun and funny part of Halloween. So the card I have for you is a little more on the cutesy side. I also love Folds. I am using one that I have not made in quite a while. It is a Double Z Fold and I hope you like it.
Hopefully these cute little owls are not too terrified of the night! I paired them with a variety of other Mini Catalog items. The Owls are from the Have A Hoot Bundle. They each have a die to cut them with, but I only cut out two of the three using the dies. The third is cut using a Layering Circle, as are the background bats DSP.
Here is a look at the inside and the Double Z Fold:
I purposely lined up the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper so that the pattern matched. Now looking at the card opened out, it makes it difficult to see the bottom Z . I may have spread it too wide for the picture.
The “BOO!” is from the Playful Alphabet Dies and the Foam Adhesive Sheets. I love the foam sheets. I adhered the Basic Black Card stock to the foam and then die cut, Instant sticky letters! Woohoo!
I have all of the products used listed under supplies at the very bottom of the post. I also have the measurements if you are unfamiliar with this fold and want to give it a try. They are after the Blog Hop list.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the blog hop, Rachel Brumley at Artistic Designs by Rachel. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!
Thank you for hopping along with us. If you get stuck during the Blog Hop, please use this line-up as a guide:
Mango Melody base is 4 1/4 X 11, scored at 2 3/4 & 5 1/2
Mango Melody Thin Z base is 1 1/8 X 11, scored at 2 3/4 & 5 1/2
Whisper White background layers are 4 1/8 X 5 3/8 (large right inside piece), 2 5/8 X 4 1/8 (2) smaller sections.
DSP layers are: large 4 X 5 1/4, strips are 1 X 5 3/8, & 1 X 2 5/8 (2)
Fold and burnish the large base and fold as you see in the first picture.
Fold and burnish the long strip and fold it the same as the large piece
Secure all of the layers, except the long piece to the base,
Reverse the long piece so that the short folds are on the right hand side and long fold on left side.
With card folded properly and long piece folded properly, add glue the 5 1/2 length only as wide as the top fold of the base.
With the base card still folded, Add glue to the bottom of the shorter folded pieces of the long one and secure it to the back section. It will fit exactly from the center fold to the right edge of the base.

Today I am using a stamp set that I have not used previously. I love trying new sets and sharing them with you. This one is a keeper!
The image is from the new set. It is the Fancy Phrases stamp set. It bundles with the Fancy Tag Topper Punch. Except I did not use the punch. I had planned on it, but then went a different direction. Are you familiar with that happening?
I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Ink and colored with a few Stampin’ Blends. This card’s colors are different in that I usually choose colors from the DSP or have the colors for the card ready prior to stamping. Today I stamped and colored to see what colors I liked for the flowers. I ended up with Rococo Rose and Purple Posy. Then I added Granny Apple Green for some brightness.
The embossed layer of Granny Apple Green was made using the Greenery Embossing Folders. This is a set of two that will work with the Small Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine ( once it is available). The ribbon is the Crinkle White Seam Binding Ribbon that I colored using the Rococo Rose Light Stampin’ Blend. I really love this ribbon for that purpose! It colors so quickly and dries almost immediately.
The sentiments with the Fancy Phrases set are wonderful and are birthday related. But I needed a smaller sentiment for the area I had left. So off I go to grab my Go To for small, the Itty Bitty Birthdays set. I love all of the Itty Bitty sets. They are great to have on hand.
Thank you for stopping by today! I really appreciate it and hope you will return tomorrow.

I love the stamp set Don’t Stop Believin’ and have used two of the three images previously. You can see those HERE and HERE. So today I am sharing the third image. They are all adorable and it is hard to choose a favorite. Maybe you can help me with which one you think is the best one.
The hot chocolate was Frosty’s downfall! I wanted Frosty to be the focal point so he is backed with some Foil. I backed the sentiment the same.
This is a really quick card to put together. The Whisper White layer is embossed with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder. I really LOVE this folder!! The strip of DSP is from Brightly Gleaming and was a leftover from another card. So that was a perfect find. I tend to have a lot of layers, and even though there are layers here, this card seems a bit more “clean” looking. Maybe it is all of the whisper white.
For inishing touches I added the bow, which is the Misty Moonlight ribbon. And the Bronze Star that is a carryover from last year. Or Returning may be a better word.
Thank you for stopping in today! Please come back tomorrow for another new project. Also, we are about half way through September, where has the time gone?????, but that also means we are halfway through the time you have to consider the Starter Kit Promotion. All of the details are listed just below. I would love to have you join my team of stampers.
