Welcome to my 2nd edition of Make It With Mary on this Monday, December 29, 2025. This series is designed to kick start your week with a bit of creative inspiration and fun. Just take a look at the featured photo for card stock and paper dimensions so you can create along with me!
Each Make It With Mary video demonstration will post on a Monday. They are meant to be quick and easy and provide you with a few minutes to create. The videos in this series are pre-recorded so you can start and stop as you need to, but trust me, with a few minutes of preparation, you’ll be able to easily following along crafting with me in real time!
As we are about to close out 2025 and welcome in 2026, I look forward to sharing lots and lots of inspiration for quick and easy crafting in 2026 with my Make It With Mary Monday series of video demonstrations.


Dimensions for MIWM #2 Card:
***For this demonstration, I used the Lovely & Beautiful Designer Series Paper and Simply Beautiful Stamp Set & Dies. You can, however, use any supplies you have on hand.
- Card base = 4 1/4″ x 11″, score at 5 1/2″ on long side, fold in half.
- Basic White inside = 4″ x 5 1/4″
- DSP = 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″, cut into three 1 1/4″ x 3 3/4″ strips as shown in video OR cut three different pieces of DSP each measuring 1 3/4″ x 3 3/4″.
- Card stock strip = 4″ x 1 3/8″
