As I continue to prepare for my upcoming vendor event, I designed a set of super cute notecards with the “Country Birdhouse” Bundle. Previously, I created an easy card with this bundle and the NEW “Basic Beige” color shown HERE. Since I am selling notecard sets at this event, I thought the birdhouse dies would make a great notecard front as everyone loves birds!
What truly made these notecards come together is the “Country Woods” DSP. I used one of the distressed wood grain patterns of DSP for the background. Then, I constructed the birdhouse with other DSP prints from that same pack of “Country Woods” paper. Honestly, it was fun “building” the birdhouse with these different Designer Series Papers!
I only stamped two images for these notecards. The “chain” that the birdhouse is hanging from at the top of the notecard and the bird peeking out of the birdhouse. The bird image was colored with “Blends” then die cut. A double-strand bow of “Linen Thread” was attached with a “Glue Dot” at the roof peak. I absolutely love the “Country Birdhouse” Bundle and the super simple cards that can be made!

What cute cards the “Country Flowers” Bundle and “Country Woods DSP make! As stated in my previous post, I am busy creating items to sell for a local “Christmas in July” event. I have been working with the “Country Flowers” bundle along with the “Country Woods” and “Country Lace” DSP.HERE was my first post using the “Country Flowers” Bundle.
The DSP used for the background is from the “Country Woods” DSP. I stamped the “teapot” image on a print from the “Country Lace” DSP before die cutting the image. Next, I stamped the flower image, colored with “Blends” and then die cut. The large die cut “Circle” shape is from the “Everyday Details” Dies.
Honestly, this card was super simple to create as I let the DSP do most of the work! I did add a touch of “Wink of Stella” to the flower centers along with a double stranded bow of “Linen Thread” attached with a pinched “Glue Dot”. Absolutely love it when I can create cute cards quickly and easily!
Just a friendly reminder that “BONUS DAYS are back” starting July 3-31. Spend, Earn and Redeem! Place an order in July and for every $50 you spend, earn a $5 Coupon to be redeemed during the month of August. Keep in mind, the coupon you earn will almost cover your shipping cost on your August order. Spend $100 and earn two (2) $5 coupons totaling $10, your shipping cost on your August order would be covered entirely! That’s a nice savings!
I am finally ready to post some recent creations using the “Country Flowers” & “Country Lace” DSP. My apologies for not posting for a bit. I have been busy preparing for an upcoming vendor event here in our town. Local merchants hold an annual event for “Christmas in July”. Over the years, I have only participated in a few of these events, so I am hoping for the best. I guess any exposure here in town is better than none!
At this event, I will be selling “Notecards and Envelope” sets. This set will have two (2) of each card, so a total of 4 cards/envelopes. Actually, this was my first “play” session with the great ‘Country Flowers” Bundle. Let me say, the coordinating “Country Lace” DSP is one of my new favs and this bundle is so much fun to work with! Here in Texas, decor tends to be more farmhouse and rustic, so I thought this set would work well for notecards.
I did stamp some of the images directly on the DSP and then die cut and other images were just die cut from the DSP. I used Stampin’ “Blends” to color the flowers and greenery. Both greetings are from the NEW “Simply Said” stamp set. If you are looking for a nice versatile greeting set, I highly recommend this stamp set.
Absolutely love this “Country Flowers” Bundle & “Country Lace” DSP! I will have a few other cards to share later this week. With this upcoming event just under three weeks away, I’m in crunch mode to make enough items to sell. Also, just a friendly reminder that NEW stamp/die “Bundles” are an extra 10% off through the end of June. So if you’ve been eyeing a NEW stamp/die bundle, don’t miss your opportunity for this additional savings!
