2 more fun fold card ideas for you; from the Flowerbugs!

November 24, 2022

Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday weekend and spend it with friends or maybe stamping!

We'll be with our kids in Fargo and besides enjoying our turkey dinner we'll be playing games, going to an escape room and I'll be addressing some Christmas cards too.

~~~

Here are more of our Flowerbug's Team swaps featuring fancy folds.

Candy made this 'book binding' card with the Kindest Gnomes; see it here.

Save

Measurements are:

Cherry Cobbler card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2"
DSP 1" X 4" on the 'binding', 1/2" X 4" strip across
Evergreen layer 4" square

Save

Roxann made this amazing Diamond Fold card. She used the Splendid Day specialty designer paper from the 2022 Holiday Catalog; seen here.

Save

Her colors include Petal Pink &Soft Sea Foam. It's finished size is 5" square so it does not fit into a standard A2 size envelope.

Measurements:

Card base 5" X 10". Score at 2 1/2" & 5". You'll find the upper center at 2 1/2" and make a mark. From the top, cut down on both sides to the first score line, removing those upper corners.
Then make a mark from the bottom up on each side at the 7 1/2" mark. Cut from the bottom center; also at 2 1/2", and cut to the 7 1/2" mark, removing the bottom outer corners.
Soft Sea Foam squares are 3 1/4"
Designer paper squares are 3"

Maybe someday I'll create one of these and share how it's done. It's a neat card!

I sure have some talented Team Members, don't I? They always impress me with their creativity, colors and ingenuity.

How to create a beautiful scene with the Peaceful Pier set; a free project sheet & video tutorial

June 9, 2025

I shared a video tutorial on how to create this gorgeous scene last week.

Save

I used the Peaceful Pier stamp set, inks and blending brushes.

Save

I first stamped the dock and tree images using Black Memento ink. Then added a few more 'grass' images at the bottom. Next you add ink with Blending Brushes. I used Lost Lagoon for the water, Granny Apple Green for the grass, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight for the sky.

I did color the dock and trees with Blends markers. I did not need to mask anything. As long as you're adding ink lightly with the Blending Brushes you shouldn't need to.

Save

After I was finished adding color I used the Textured Notes dies to cut my image into 2 pieces. Ad added the frame to a Black CS layer and added the center with Stampin' Dimensionals. I love the dimension this gives to the card scene.

Here is the free project sheet for this card: Click on the following link to download or print it. Download Peaceful Pier scenic card

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes. I hope you watch it!
