Hi all!
Sunday means it is time for another Story Card Sunday tutorial. This week's card is a colorful one!
This pocket page-friendly Story Card was easy to put together with Technique Tuesday's clear stamps and steel dies. Let me show you how you can make one like it.
Start by cutting five labels with the Just Sayin steel dies and one base card with the Story Card dies.
Arrange all of the labels but one onto the base card.
Take the last label and stamp a saying on top of it. I used words from the Real Story stamp set.
Adhere the final label to the Story Card. Use your scissors to trim away any excess off the sides.
Finish the Story Card by adding some gems or sequins to it. Enamel dots or buttons would also work.
This concludes this week's Story Card Sunday tutorial. Tune in next Sunday to learn how to make an all new pocket page-friendly Story Card.
Hi all!

Hi all!
It's time for another edition of Story Card Sunday. This week's pocket page-friendly Story Card pays tribute to the upcoming holiday season.
You like? Hope so!
Let me show you how you can make one like it.
Start by cutting a base card with the Story Card dies. Cut 5 labels from green cardstock with the Rectangle Labels dies. Cut a small star with the Nested Stars dies and a small heart with the Nested Hearts dies.
Arrange the labels onto the base card. Add the heart to one of them.
Poke a hole above the top label and one a little bit below it.
Bring jute, twine or embroidery floss through the holes. Add the star to the top.
Add embellishments to the heart and the star.
Stamp a word or phrase onto the Story Card. The word I used is from the Poinsettia Wishes stamp set.
Finish the Story Card by adding one more gem or enamel dot. Tie a little piece of twine onto the jute as well.
While this Story Card fits many of the major pocket scrapbook pages out there, it would also work on a traditional scrapbook page and on a greeting card. It would also be fun to create several of these Story Cards and decorate a Christmas tree with them.
Thanks for tuning in. See you again next Sunday!

Hi all!
It's time for another installment of Story Card Sunday. Today's Story Card is all about love!
You like?!
Read on to learn how you can make one like it to use in a pocket page or on a traditional scrapbook page or greeting card.
Start by doing some die-cutting. You are going to need to cut one of each of these shapes:
Now you are going to do some stamping. Turn the base card sideways and stamp "somewhere together" (from the Pack Your Bags stamp set) on the far right side of the card. This Story Card will be a tight fit so it's important you stamp as close to the edge as you can.
Adhere the tag right next to the words and stamp "Let's go..." (from the On Vacation stamp set) on it.
Adhere the globe base to the card.
Place the circle and globe on top.
Finish the Story Card by adding the heart and a bow tied from twine or embroidery floss, Want to kick your Story Card up a notch? Add a gem or enamel dot to the heart.
I'll be back again next week with another Story Card Sunday tutorial to share with you. Hope to see you then!
Who says Christmas cards have to use traditional colors?! Check out this cool idea from Birgit Edblom.
Rather than making a card in traditional reds and greens, follow Birgit's lead and make a card with blacks and grays. Your card is sure to be unique!
Wondering what stamp set Birgit used to make her card? She used the Holly - Greenhouse Society stamp set. This is a fun one to use to make handmade cards with all Winter long.
