5 super quick handmade card ideasby Christine BilyardNovember 20, 2018 |

Hi it’s Christine here today with some super quick handmade card ideas for you.

I can be a very slow crafter, so thought it would be fun to challenge myself to make a collection of cards with each one taking no more than five minutes.

To begin with I made all the card blanks at once. They are all 4”x4” mini card blanks with the bottom two corners rounded using a corner punch.

BEE HIVE BIRTHDAY CARD

Instructions

The die cut ephemera packs are your best friends when making quick cards. To make this card I just added images from the Bee Garden die cut ephemera pack and finished the card off with the gorgeous wooden bees and a green ribbon bow and adhesive pearl.

 

BEE WREATH BIRTHDAY CARD

Instructions

Another card made using the Bee Garden die cut ephemera pack. The wreath and sentiment are from the pack and I added the wooden bees, this time with glitter, and a ribbon bow and adhesive pearl to finish.

 

MERMAID BIRTHDAY CARD

Instructions

I used the sentiment and mermaid from the Mermaid Treasures die cut ephemera pack. I then added wooden starfish with added glitter and pearls and sequins to finish.

 

UNICORN FAIRGROUND HOT AIR BALLOON CARD

Instructions

I used the Unicorn Fairground die cut ephemera pack here for the background and large hot air balloon. I stamped the “celebrate” sentiment onto the washi tape style banner from the Bee Garden die cut ephemera pack. I added the wooden hot air balloon and cloud and sequins to finish.

 

UNICORN FAIRGROUND CAROUSEL CARD

Instructions

I used a pink doily as the background on this card. I added the wooden carousel as the focal point. As with the previous card I stamped the sentiment onto a washi tape style banner from the Bee Garden die cut ephemera pack. I then added a pink bow and adhesive pearl to finish.
