Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Hello! Today, I’m sharing a square, CAS, nautical-themed card featuring supplies from Taylored Expressions.
I used the Sitting Pretty Nautical Accessories and Little Bits – Crustaceans die sets to cut out embellishments which I added in a circle to the stamped Seas the Day sentiment. The patterned paper (with coordinating solid) is from Carta Bella.

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a square, CAS, summer-themed card featuring supplies from Taylored Expressions.
Yes, I have been making a lot of square cards lately! I have also been trying to use more of my patterned paper (of which I have quite a lot). The patterned paper on this card is from Echo Park.
I stamped the Tropical Trio Stamp & Die Combo sentiment directly on the background paper. I added a surf board from On the Road – Surf Bus to the top of the assembled On the Road – Beetle. The palm is cut with the Build a Scene – Tropical set.

Hello! Today, I’m sharing another CAS patriotic card featuring the Simply Said – 4th of July set. I used the other sentiments in the stamp set on this card and this card.
I heat-embossed the sentiment and added die-cut embellishments cut with the Little Bits – Firework and Little Bits – Patriotic Confetti sets. I added texture with the Fireworks embossing folder. The patterned paper is from a Carta Bella Ahoy There paper pad (released several years ago).

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a CAS patriotic card combining the Taylored Expressions Lucky Stars Stamp & Die Combo and Simply Said – 4th of July sets.
The Lucky Stars Stamp & Die Combo set made the creation of this card a breeze! I stamped the stars in three different ink colors and then used the corresponding die to cut them out. I used the negative piece as a template for attaching them to the stitched rectangle, on which I had stamped the sentiment from the Simply Said – 4th of July set.
For subtle texture, I used the Weathered embossing folder for the card base.
