Courage & Faith Stamp Set & Designer Tags Dies

May The Lord Bless You…

Last week for my Marvelous Monday’s Facebook Live, I played with the wonderful Courage & Faith stamp set (available in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog) and Designer Tags dies (available online only) and showed my customers some fun & easy z-fold cards. I love this wonderful stamp set and have already used the sentiments on the inside of many of my cards, but had yet to show it to my customers.

For this sweet card, I used a Basic White Thick CS base, 4-1/4”x11”, scored at 5-1/2” and 2-3/4” to make a “Z” cards. I embossed two 2”x4-1/4” pieces with the Fun Patterns EF (available online only) and glued them to the two sides of the card front after the flap is folded back.

I used the largest of the Designer Tags for the sentiment and sprigs. I stamped the sentiment and sprigs in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it in Petunia Pop and Summer Splash Blends, then added a 3”x2-3/4” layer of Summer Splash CS and a 2-1/4”x4-1/4” piece of Petunia Pop CS. I added an 6” piece of Summer Splash 3/8” Bordered Ribbon to the tag and secured it behind the Petunia Pop CS, then popped it up on left side of the Z-card flap. I die cut the cute butterfly from a scrap of Petunia Pop CS and the foliage sprig in Summer Splash CS using the Designer Tags dies and popped them up on the card front and added Petunia Pop Adhesive-Backed Dots.

For this cute card, I kept is simple by using the same elements as the card above, but instead of horizontal, I made this card vertical, still using an A2 Basic White Thick CS base.

For this card, I decided to stamp the sentiment in Petunia Pop ink and the sprigs in Summer Splash ink. It makes a great card to reproduce with very little tools!
