Krafty Chicks Challenge #661: All Occasions

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Welcome to another great challenge week from the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog. All Occasions is the theme, so pretty much anything goes. Here's my card:


 In January and a bit of February, I sat in my craft space and created this card (and few others) with the He's The Man Collection found on page 78 of the Annual Catalogue. I am hoping to start a new sort of Virtual Class called QUICK Club (Quarterly. Unique. Inspiring. Card. Kits.). It's been an idea floating in my head for almost 2 years, so I'm glad I finally sat down to create. The idea is to get more use out of your stamp sets and bundles.

Have you ever bought a bundle and only ever created ONE, maybe two cards with it?? I have... many, many times. That makes for a very expensive card. Bundles retail anywhere from $60 -$75. And to create only one card with it is just crazy. My idea is, over the span of 3 months (13 weeks), we will create one card a week (13 cards total) using the bundle. I'll have more details soon but you can find the gist of it in my Facebook Group, Featured section of Diane's Craft Space, if you really want to know now. Since the DSP is retiring in less than a week, I will call this my practice run through the new QUICK Club. And I'll have an announcement once the new Annual Catalogue 2023-2024 goes Live on May 2, 2023.

As for the inside of the card and the envelope, I kept it clean and simple with some DSP and a die cut. That's all it really takes to push your card over the top.

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for All Occasions week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.

  2. What a great masculine card. Yes, I have bought a bundle and made only one card with it. I think your 13 card kits to go with a bundle is a really fun idea!
