Both card bases were created exactly the same. Each card requires a Letterboard Combo Creative Cuts Dies front and back, a frame, a contrasting insert, and a connector. Be sure to watch the video to see how easy these are to put together.
For the My Pet Kitties card I stamped images from the stamp set on Bristol Smooth Cardstock with no line coloring ink and colored in the images with the following Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers:
Gray kitty: Natural Gray, Gray Tint, Pale Pink
Mice: Mid Brown, Beige, Pale Pink
Kitty with yarn: Brown, Light Brown, Pale Pink, Blue, Light Blue, Red, Light Carmine
Yellow butterfly: Bright Yellow, Yellow

The images were die cut with the coordinating My Pet Kitties Creative Cuts and adhered along the bottom edge of the letter board.
Letters were die cut from multiple colors of cardstock using the Letterboard Combo Die. The letters were secured to the letter board as shown. A sentiment from the stamp set was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

Don't need school-themed cards? Change out the greetings for encouragement, birthday, friendship, thank you, etc. Clipboards and office supplies can work for so many occasions!
For this first card I die cut the clipboard shaped card from a white top fold card base. I also used the card die to die cut black/gray Doodlebug patterned paper that I adhered to the front of the card base. The clip was die cut from Frosted Silver Mirror Cardstock, assembled, and adhered to the top of the clipboard card base. The card will fit a standard A2 sized envelope in spite of the clip hanging off the top of the card base! Yay!
The scissors were die cut from Frosted Silver Mirror Cardstock and FSJ Candy Apple Cardstock. The scissors handles and blades were glued together and a mini brad was used to connect the pieces. The scissors actually move! How fun is that?!!!!
For this second card I die cut the clipboard shaped card from a white top fold card base. I used the card die to die cut Really Rainbow Patterned Paper that I adhered to the front of the card base. The clip was die cut from Polished Gold Cardstock, assembled, and adhered to the top of the clipboard card base.

To create my own patterned background from die cuts along the bottom of the card I first trimmed the new Lawn Fawn White Woodgrain Cardstock to 2.75" x 5.5". The apples and seeds from the Outside In Stitched Apples Dies and Stitched Apple Frames Dies were die cut from Chili Pepper, Noble Fir, Chocolate Bar, and Ground Coffee Cardstocks and adhered to the woodgrain background as shown. Any excess was trimmed from the sides and the panel was adhered to a white side fold card base.
Images from the So Owlsome stamp set were stamped on smooth white cardstock with Jet Black ink, colored in with Copic Markers, and die cut with the coordinating dies. The images were adhered along the top edge of the card as shown.
The Thanks Teacher Line Border was die cut from Black Licorice Cardstock and adhered along the top edge of the custom apple background. Additional greetings from the So Owlsome stamp set were stamped with black ink above the die cut sentiment.
Glossy Accents was applied to the glasses and the beaks of the owls. A white pen was used to add highlights and detail to the stamped and colored images to complete the card.
