The Bumble Bee Gnomes in a Box Card

 

Similar to a Z Slit Card, this Box Card Z fold is done with the same kit "Bumblebee Gnomes" by Laurie Furnell found in her etsy store.  The tutorial video for this variation was posted by my BF Clareene  and can be found on her Utube Channel (The St. Patrick's Day Z fold Card)

The Slit Z Card with Bumble Bee Gnomes

 This Slit "Z" card was inspired by Lisa Curcio's tutorial from November of 22.  The adorable graphics are from Laurie Furnell's Store at Etsy --called Bumble Bee Gnomes.

Back of card with space for a note.

This card was made for our cousin Mary Lou's 81st birthday, March 4.

Happy Birthday Andrew

 This Triple Easel Card was made with graphics drawn by  Laurie Furnell in her "O Baby it's Cold Outside" digital kit.  I followed the tutorial of my dear friend Clareene, who made this card SO easy to make and so much fun.

Happy 24th Birthday, Andrew

A couple of Valentines

 This top Valentine is for daughter Kathy.  It is created with Graphic 45 papers "Mon Amour" and follows their tutorial for the front pocket card from the 2023 Vol 1 Card Kit (using papers and elements from 2022 Vol 12 kit.)  There is a Starbucks card on the back of the tag that is placed into the pocket.  The personal greeting is on the back of this card which does NOT fold out.

Hidden Message, inside when open, with gift card pocket (it's in with removable tape), but needs to stay there probably before it gets LOST

This is where it tucks in--behind the front of the card on a step

And this is the back of the inside surprise hidden message

Projects and Projects-

-Who doesn't need a boatload of gift card holders!

 Gift Card and Money Holders galore will be the projects for the January PnP meeting on the 19th.

We'll be creating pull up--bill holders,

Quite a few in a diagonal pocket card design where the top opens to reveal a wish, and the bottom is a pocket for the gift card or money, or note.

And we'll create pop up corner gift card holders. Clever folds and fun to make.

My cousin took this picture of the tiny "Yellow Rumped Warbler, and he became a very special gift card holder, created with designer paper made by Anna Apsnes.
