Vintage Seas Creativity Kit Reveal

Vintage Seas Creativity Kit Reveal for The Button Farm Club

Hello, Friends! I know it’s Christmas in July season, but I just had to share this Vintage Seas Creativity Kit Reveal with you. This is what I have been up to this week, and I hope this lovely kit will bring you as much pleasure as it has me. There’s so much to love!

Flip and Stand Mini Album

First, there’s this nautical themed Flip and Stand Mini Album. This is my own original design, and it is sooo much fun to make. It’s the perfect project for a lazy summer day when it’s too hot to pull weeds or iron or clean house. The staggered pages give it a playful feeling, and the gorgeous papers keep you coming back for more. There are 10 heavy chipboard pages, each with loads of room for photos and journaling. You can see the full reveal in the video tour below.

Masculine Cards Galore

Next, we have shaker cards galore. And not just shaker cards…masculine shaker cards! So many of you have told me that you’d love to see a more masculine card kit, so here it is. Of course, I think these cards would be welcomed no matter who you gave them to! There are 5 shaker cards in the kit….and you can see them all in the reveal video.

Infinity Card

Have you ever made an infinity card? These kinetic beauties are part card, part toy! They make me think of the old school Rubix cubes that used to keep us occupied for hours on end. This one sports a stylish belly band closure. If you’ve never seen one in action before, I think you’re going to love this 5×7 creation!

Fancy Fold Cards

You just have to create a Twisted Easel card for a nautical kit like this one! The shape is exactly like a sail! I took the design up a notch by adding a shaker frame to the cover.

There are so many wonderful projects in this kit, that I decided to make you a little video tour. Wait til you see how LOADED this kit is! Wow!

Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal

Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal for The Button Farm Club

Hello, Friends! This Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal is the next best thing to a summer kitchen in Spain! Oh, the rich colors, terra cotta tiles and gorgeous vintage images in this beautiful paper collection! They captured my imagination, and the minute I saw them, I knew this had to be our Button Farm Club Summer Card Kit!

Pomegranates, crockery bowls, vibrant poppies and an adorable little snail inspired these loaded pocket cards.

Each pocket has a little post card, tags and the cutest little accordion tag folio! It’s a gift all on its own, but there’s room to tuck in a gift card or a tea bag and honey stick if you are so inclined.

This is one of the images that made me swoon! You’ll have to watch the video to see the surprise on the inside!

And we have not one, but TWO slimline shaker card folios in this kit. These are perfect for gift-giving, as the inside is not your ordinary card.

There’s a fun kinetic waterfall feature, a little hidden side pocket, and a tag folio pocket, too. You’ll even find room for a photo or two on the inside.

Old World Charm

This cutaway card is oozing with Old World charm. Cracked tiles, chippy crockery and an old tea pot filled with posies lends lots of charm.

And you’ll find lots of kinetic surprises inside these pretty cards, too.

Like pop-up features? We got that!

Belly Bands? And fancy folds? Check!

These double gatefold cards even have a little bookmark action on the inside.

Flip Folio

In addition to the 9 cards in this kit, we also managed to squeeze in a mighty sweet little flip folio!

Here’s a peek at the cover without that fabulous dimensional belly band.

And I promise you…there are some very fun features tucked inside this wonderful design!

Celebrate Kinetic Birthday Card Kit Release

Introducing the Button Farm Club Celebrate Kinetic Birthday Card Kit Release

Hello, Friends! Get ready to party, because today I’m introducing my Button Farm Club Celebrate Kinetic Birthday Card Kit Release! Oh, yes, my friends! Cue the confetti, frost the cupcakes and put on your crafting shoes, because this kit is one of the most exciting projects I’ve taken on to date!

It seems no matter how many cards I make, I always need more birthday cards! Is the same true for you? So I decided it would be a blast to create a kinetic card kit (think moving parts). And how about a card kit with cards that would work for everybody on your birthday card list? So I put together this fabulous kit with cards for guys, cards for the ladies, cards for teens and even cards for kids.

Cards for Guys

Let’s face it: guys are hard to make cards for most of the time. But these clean and simple cards even got two thumbs up from my sweet hubby! See, he loves cards that have moving parts. These bold cards are not as basic as they seem at first glance. Take a look…

Oh, yeah! a little pop up action will have the recipient opening and closing over and over again! These cards would also be great for teen boys.

Make Mine a Triple Layer Cake, Please!

Remember the old TV bits where a girl would pop out of a cake? Well, these Triple Layer Cake Cards have a cake that pops out of the card! How’s that for fun?

In fact, these cards are so much fun to make, I had to put two of them into the kit!

I think these cards are fun for kids of all ages, but I can see young girls liking them a lot!

Whole Lotta Shakin’ Going On!

Y’all know how much I enjoy a good shaker card! There’s just something about all those sparkly bits dancing around inside a frame…and the sound of them moving that makes me feel happy all over. So I have included SIX..count ’em…SIX shaker cards in this kit! That’s a whole lotta shakin’ goin’ on!

This double frame photo card is perfect for a graduate, teacher or coach.

And what feels more like a party than balloons, cake and rosettes?

Cake and cupcakes anyone?

Oh, yes…please do let there be cake!

Well, it sure looks like a party, doesn’t it? Each of these cards has a gift card pocket inside, too.

Pop-Up Birthday Cake Wiper Card

Wait until you see this one in action in the video below. I could NOT stop playing with this card. It doubles nicely as a toy for the easily entertained!

Birthday Party Photo Folio

Birthday parties create lots and lots of memories. And this One Sheet Wonder has room for lots and lots of photos so those memories don’t get lost!

With journaling cards and tags, interactive pages and hidden pockets, this little gem is worth its weight in birthday cake! You’ll get to see all the fun details in the video below.
