One of the free selections from the Sale-a-Bration flyer is the Sweet Soireé Memories & More Card Pack. Have you seen it? These packs of pre-printed cards are designed to work with Photo Pocket Pages to create quick & easy memory-keeping albums. Did you know that they are also awesome for creating quick & cute cards for all occasions?
Today, I'm sharing some pretty little all-occasion cards that you can make with the Sweet Soireé Card Pack! And, I'm even offering a class kit with all the makings of the cards pre-cut and ready to stamp and assemble.
What Is Memories & More?—It's a memory keeping system that helps you quickly organize photos and memories into beautiful albums. The unique Photo Pocket Pages are designed to take the stress out of traditional scrapbooking. Simply add your featured photos to the page pockets, then fill in the remaining pockets with a title card, journaling card, story-starter card, or pretty design cards from the card packs. All of the card packs in the catalog coordinate with a popular suite for lots of creative possibilities. Even traditional scrapbookers will love creating hybrid books by adding some Pocket Pages to their albums filled with photos that didn't make the spotlight pages. It's quick, it's easy and the best part…it helps you create a lovely keepsake without feeling overwhelmed. Plus, you can use the extra pocket cards to create greeting cards…bonus!

Here are just a few examples of cards you can make with this card pack, and they are included in the class kit:
Happy Wedding Day Card—The collage focal point is all from the Sweet Soireé card pack! The Beautiful Bouquet sentiment is stamped in Berry Burst on one of the cards that I trimmed down to 2-1/4" x 3". It's tied with Silver Twine then popped up over some 4-1/2" x 1/2" strips, also cut from cards and used just like bits of Designer Series Paper. The pretty floral accent is pre-printed on another card, hand-cut and popped up with Dimensionals. It takes on minutes to achieve this cute card!
Wonderful Life Card—This card begins with a Marina Mist card base, then overlaps two 3" x 4" Sweet Soireé cards without even needing to trim them. The Beautiful Bouquet sentiment and leaves are stamped inside the printed card circle with Old Olive ink. The flower is stamped from the same set in Berry Burst ink onto Whisper White scrap, then die-cut with the coordinating Bouquet Bunch Framelits and popped up with Dimensionals. I love how that little bit of Silver Twine adds some delicate texture to the layers.
Hello Card—There is no stamping on this card! The "hello" layer is cut to 5-1/2" x 2" from one of the 4" x 6" pre-printed cards, then layered onto a 5-1/2" x 2-1/4" Old Olive mat and mounted onto a Berry Burst card base. Add a Berry Burst Metallic-Edge Ribbon bow with a Glue Dot—DONE! Talk about fast!
Thanks A Bunch Card—The 4" x 3" card layer on this card is a "journaling" card with a blank spot in the middle for writing captions to your photos. Here, I stamped the Beautiful Bouquet sentiment on it instead using Old Olive ink. It's wrapped in Silver Twine then popped up with Dimensionals. The floral element was hand-cut from a 4" x 6" card and popped up, as well. Everything is mounted onto an Old Olive card base.
