Cards On Wednesday-Mix and Match

           


Happy Wednesday!  Andrea, Summer, Melissa and I are here to share projects that mix all of Lily Bee's new collections- Autumn Spice, Persnickety, and Christmas Cheer!

Melissa has made two darling cards that are sure to make someone's day special. She used the Persnickety and Christmas Cheer stamps paired with navy ink to add special touches on her first card.

Lily Bee Supplies: Persnickety (6x6 Tiny Tablet, Clear Stamps), Christmas Cheer (6x6 Tiny Tablet, Clear Stamps), Autumn Spice (6x6 Tiny Tablet)

Melissa shares her insights:  It is so easy to mix and match all three of the newest collections! I love that you can mix things up and don't have to necessarily use the "Christmas Cheer" collection strictly for holiday projects. You can stretch them out and get more for your money! These two cards came together super easy using the 6x6 Tiny Tablets. I never use to use the smaller paper pads and always preferred the
12x12 sheets. However, over the past couple of years, I have realized how perfect these sized pads are for card making! The scaled down designs and size of the paper are a win-win!

Here is Melissa's second adorable card.  I love how she mixed the different green patterns like the chevron and polka dots!

 

Lily Bee Supplies: Persnickety (6x6 Tiny Tablet), Autumn Spice (6x6 Tiny Tablet, Card Stock Stickers), Christmas Cheer (6x6 Tiny Tablet).

I have created a card that would work well for babies, teens or grown-ups.  I used the triangles from the cardstock sticker packages to create my banner.

Supplies:  Persnickety (6X6 Tiny Tablet, Index Journal Card, Mixed Cardstock Stickers), Autumn Spice (6X6 Tiny Tablet, Mixed Cardstock Stickers), Christmas Cheer (Figgy Pudding Paper, Clear Stamps, Cardstock Stickers)

Using multiple collections was super easy.  I started by settling on a color scheme.  I knew I wanted the pink and blue from the "Noted" card and decided to pair those hues with yellow.  Once I knew those main colors, I simply grabbed supplies that complimented or coordinated. 

Here is my second card.  I used the same approach as above, just focused on primary colors. 

Supplies:  Persnickety (6X6 Tiny Tablet, Clear Stamps, Index Journaling Card), Christmas Cheer (Papers:  Reindeer Games, Figgy Pudding, 6X6 Tiny Tablet), Autumn Spice (Paper:  Brown Sugar, Clear Stamps)

Summer has created a set of pretty cards that showcase the chevron patterns in the collections.  One card runs the patterns vertically while the other goes horizontally.

Andrea has a stunner of her own to share with us today.

Supplies: Persnickety (Clear Stamps, Mixed Cardstock Stickers, 6 x 6 Tiny Tablet Paper, Huffy Paper, Fussy Paper), Autumn Spice (Clear Stamps, 6 x 6 Tiny Tablet Paper, Pumpkin Spice Paper, Brown Sugar Paper), Christmas Cheer (6 x 6 Tiny Tablet Paper, Clove Paper, Figgy Pudding Paper)

Andrea provided this tip: The small pocket created for the front of the card is also a great place for a gift card.  By using foam adhesive, you can tuck both the tag and gift card in, leaving the inside for that special hand written note.

We hope you have found inspiration today!  Grab your Lily Bee collections and start the mixing and matching! Thanks for stopping by!
