Keitha I can totally understand not wanting to get into yet another batch of supplies. But that is definitely not my intention nor necessary. My butterfly card is a partial example of that. Though I did use a scalloped slim line die to cut the panel, my butterflies are just non-specific, regular sized stamps. Plus these cards fit into a standard business size envelope using just one US postage stamp (I would hope Canadian as well) which I described in my challenge.

If I misled anyone that I expected you all to go out and buy new supplies, I apologize. I generally use my paper trimmer to cut the various panels to fit my designs.

I must admit that while this is a great new trend I don't do them. Keitha I don't really think you need to buy different supplies, just cut paper different.

Well, I don’t blame you for my weakness, I ordered some of those dies too!! :D If I don’t spend it my kids won’t have a second thought about spending it.

Looking forward to getting them and trying them out. I looked in my stash and I have quite a few Club Scrap cards in that format.

Well, somehow I skipped right over the “standard size envelop and one postage stamp” information. My eye kept jumping right onto the gorgeous colors in your samples

Kenna’s card inspired me to make a card I’ve been putting off for too long. Thank you Kenan!

I know I don't have to buy specific supplies for these, but I also know I'd be more than tempted. It would start innocently enough, 'oh, I'll just get that one stencil...' and I'd be off. So instead I skip right past the videos and emails I see with them; what I don't know (I'm missing) won't hurt me. However I shall admire the offerings of my PAO sisters (and their grandkids).

Pam, Kenan’s card is a winner! Mia will love it and love his message too.

Beki your card is delightful and a perfect canvas for all those gorgeous flowers. I spy a very cool die too.


So this card has been on my mind for several weeks and I finally got those stitched diamond dies and a CP paper pad together.
