Sugarplum Wishes MemoryDex Cards by Paige Evans

I love creating MemoryDex cards! Here are 4 using Sugarplum Wishes to go into my perpetual tray.
I purchased a mint wooden tray a few years ago and am filling it with cards made with all of my American Crafts scrapbook collections: Go the Scenic Route, Wonders, Bungalow Lane, SplendidGarden ShoppeBlooming Wild, and now Sugarplum Wishes!
This is a continuation of my Pink Paislee MemoryDex (click on that link to see them all!) which coincidentally filled up completely with my last collection under the Pink Paislee brand called Bloom Street.
For the first Sugarplum Wishes MemoryDex card I cut a section of the colorful trees Paper 10, poked holes around the trees, and backstitched with coordinating colors of DMC thread. I topped the trees and filled in gaps with Sugarplum Wishes Enamel Dots and PTE Enamel Dots. On the right edge I slid on three Paper Clips with Charms to finish.
For the second Sugarplum Wishes MemoryDex card I used my Layered Poinsettia from the 25 Christmas Cut Files 2023 to make all the layers from pink and red patterned papers. I creased all the petals and then added French knots to the smallest piece. After gluing all the flowers together I placed it onto a blue snowflake card from the Boxed Cards. Some blue pom pom trim added to the top finishes up this MemDex card!
For the third Sugarplum Wishes MemoryDex card I die cut my Front Porch from the 25 Christmas Cut Files 2023 from white cardstock, backed all the tiny sections with patterned paper scraps, then placed it on a green card from the Boxed Cards with tiny foam squares. I added white glitter cardstock as snowy hills at the bottom and punched the MemDex holes to finish!
The fourth Sugarplum Wishes MemoryDex card is the one I made in bulk to swap at our Sugarplum Wishes Weekend event. I added fringed paper strips and pink pom pom trim on the front along with the logo. Then on the back I made a pocket to tuck in Ephemera Die Cuts with photos and journaling on them documenting Sugarplum Wishes.
I embellished the tags and die cuts with Mini Puffy Stickers and pieces from the Sticker Book.
I chose a few photos to print all about Sugarplum Wishes arriving, organizing it, photographing it, kitting it, and my December Daily album made with it, and wrote out my feelings about my first Christmas collection with American Crafts!
I've added these 4 cards into my MemoryDex tray and it sits on top of a cabinet in my happy scrappy place!
Let me know if you have any questions about any of these cards or MemoryDex in general!
I also have a MemoryDex class available HERE!
It's such a delight seeing this tray get more full with every new collection! Some Adventurous MemoryDex cards coming up next in about 7 months!
