Celebrate Easter and spring with layering dies from our 2025 Peony Collection.  Cheery  Happy Easter and Gentle Peony Bloom work perfectly with a floral garden print from the Anemone Grove 6x6 set.  Hi, Jean here with a design that also works for birthdays, thank-you's and Mother's Day with just a change of greetings.

Cut the new Gentle Peony Bloom from pale peach cardstock and a 6x6 from the Greenery collection.  Cut the stamens from the lemon-yellow Graceful Garden 6x6.

Cut the dark green, peach and white floral print from the Anemone Grove 6x6 set with the 2-5/8" wide Fringed Scalloped  Frame Set die.

Attach Scor-Tape over a piece of the Greenery 6x6 used for the leaves and cut the solid background from the Cheery Happy Easter set.  Cut the detailed top layer from  lemon-yellow cardstock.  Attach the detailed layer to the background.  Cover the exposed adhesive with detail clear embossing powder, then tap off the excess.  Heat-emboss it.  It's a timesaving way to assemble the greeting and add a glossy background.

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded Key Lime cardstock A2 card - use foam dots for the greeting, leaf tips and the top petals. Cut  an A2-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Let your Memory Box dies, 6x6 prints and cardstock do the work for you!  Make several of these cards with different prints and colors. Have them ready for when you need a quick card - and have just enough time to add the right greeting.

Blue Peonies Hello
by Trina Pham

Hello everyone.  Memory Box did it again, releasing another beautiful floral collection - the 2025 Peony Collection.  And in my favorite color blue, these peonies are gorgeous! 😉 
 
IMG_9292
All floral and foliage layers were die cut from white paper.  The Graceful and Elegant Peony Blossoms layers were ink blended with Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans distress inks (DI).  The leaves from Peony Bud Trio were colored with Copic Sketch markers YG06/07/09 and BG07.  The stamens were die cut from white glitter paper.

IMG_9297

The Cherish Scallop Frame piece was die cut from white woodgrain paper and andhered onto an A2 size Blueberry Mist panel.  Stamped the sentiment from Hello Butterfly with Versafine Onyx Black ink then heat embossed with clear glitter embossing powder for more sparkle.  Die cut it out with the matching die and mounted it onto two more white die cut layers for dimension.  Assembled the card onto a white card base and added clear shimmer to the flowers to finish.

That does it for my card.  Thank you for joining me today.  Have a wonderful day.

Cut the curved overlay section from the Black Glossy Paper too and attach it - upside-down - at the bottom of the blossom.  It's hard to see on the completed card pictures, but adds a faux-sepal finishing touch.

Pressure-emboss Black Glossy Paper with the Bubble Dots Plate using the rubber embossing mat and other plate(s) required for your machine.  Cut a 3/4" x 4-1/4" strip.

Cut a 3/4" x 3-1/2" strip of Black Glossy Paper.  Cut a 3/4" x 5-1/4" strip of black cardstock.  Layer the strips to create a background.

Make a Wish

Decorate a birthday cake and create a cake plate for a special celebration.  Hi, Jean here - with a DIY design from repurposed dies that didn't expect to become a cake plate.

Cut the new Party Layer Cake from the pink and gold Glimmering Gladiola floral print.  Cut the scalloped accents from dark pink cardstock - we're using just 2 of the smaller diecuts for the top tier.  Cut 7 candles from light pink cardstock and color the wicks with a light yellow marker.

Here's where we get a little creative -  I was determined  to create a cake plate.  Cut about 3/8" of the light gold Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad 6x6 with a long edge of the 3-1/2" x 2" (approximately) Fringed Scalloped  Frame Set die.  Cut the diagonal-textured Birthday Party Hat from the reverse side of the light gold cardstock - so the diagonal scorelines aren't visible when it's used for the plate.  If the lines are still visible, place the triangle between 2 pieces of printer paper and smooth them out by the triangle through the diecut machine with the plates used for cutting.  Trim the bottom for a flat base.

Prep light pink cardstock with the embossing powder tool to eliminate stray specs of  powder. Stamp the greeting - from the Birthday Chic Clear Stamp and Die Set with VersaMark and heat-emboss  it with detail gold powder.  Trim it with the smallest Fringed Scalloped Frame die.

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded 5-1/2" square card of natural cardstock.  Punch 1/4" dots of the yellow/orange Graceful Garden Glitter Pad 6x6.  Cut a 5-1/2" square of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Just Saying Hello

The new Royal Robin stops by for a quick hello on a background of  Glimmering Gladiola and Nutmeg Spice  diecuts.   Hi, Jean here with a basic any-occasion design that can be done with an array of coordinating Memory Box 6x6 prints and plaids.

MemoryBoxRoyalRobin, MemoryBoxHelloMarkerScript, MemoryBoxMajesticGlitterPad, MemoryBoxGlimmeringGladiola6x6, MemoryBoxNutmegForest6x6, MemoryBoxKraftWoodgrainlPaper, Diecutting, MemoryBoxCoDies, CardmakinglIdeas, BirdDiecuts, FeltDiecuts, JeanOkimoto, MemoryBoxVintageTray3DEmbossingFolderAndDie, MemoryBoxVintageTrayEmbossingFolderAndDie, 6x6Papers

Cut the prints from the Glimmering Gladiola and Nutmeg Spice 6x6 sets with the Vintage Tray 3D Embossing Folder die.  Adhere them to a textured  white A-6 card.  

Attach adhesive label paper or a sticker sheet to tan wool-blend felt and diecut the large main section of the Royal Robin.  The paper layer stabilizes the felt and prevents adhesives from saturating it.  Cut the beak and feet section from dark orange cardstock.  Color the eye area with a black marker.  Cut the head and wing sections from Kraft Woodgrain Paper.  

Attach ScorTape to a dark orange cardstock and diecut the Hello Marker Script's solid background.  Cut the detailed top layer of the greeting from light peach cardstock.  Attach the top layer to the tape-covered background and sprinkle the exposed adhesive with detail clear embossing powder.  Tap off the excess and heat-set the greeting - the melted embossing powder adheres the layers and adds a glossy texture.

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone celebrating today!  Here's a basic design to celebrate a special holiday,  an engagement, wedding or anniversary.  It's easy to create in an array of colors and it's a great way to actually use those papers in the stash.  Hi, Jean here after a bit of snow, and wonky internet.

Tiny registration holes on the corners of the Party Confetti Stencil Set make it easy to position the 4 stencils.  Just mark the holes with a pencil and line the stencils up as you apply each layer of ink.  The stencils are also marked with an A2 card outline for easy aligning.  

Cut a 6" square of pink cardstock and stencil it with 3 of the 4 designs in the Party Confetti  Stencil set - 2 streamers and one of the confetti.  I used a very vintage - but still great - Galaxy Gold Brilliance inkpad.  Dry the ink, then cut a section with the 2-3/4" tall Double Stitch Happy Heart Cut Out die.  The dies create a stitched outline and solid hearts.

Cut the dark pink and gold-embossed petal print from the Glimmering Gladiola 6x6 set and the bright gold Glitzy Glitter Pad with the same die.

Cut the 3-1/2" x  4-3/4" Wrapped Stitch Rectangle from white cardstock.

Stamp the "love" portion of the birthday love greeting from the Birthday Chic Clear Stamp and Die Set on white cardstock with Rose Bud Memento Luxe.  Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder.

Attach everything to a white A6 card (4-1/2" x 6-1/4") - attach the center heart and greeting with foamtape.  Add 1/4" circles punched from the bright pink Graceful Garden Glitter Pad 6x6.  Cut an A6-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
