3 fun fold cards celebrating Strawberry Slush!


I have THREE neat fun fold cards from our June Team card swap.  My Flowerbug's did an incredible job on their fun fold cards!  

First up is Sharon's card featuring the Cheers & Sips bundle seen here. 

The top card base layer is scored to creates a box that pops up & supports the front panel. Super neat! 

She added Fine Tip Glue to her fussy cut drinks for some shine.  To do this you need to let it set awhile to dry. I'd recommend two layers.  If you don't want it to get a bit curvy from the liquid in the glue, add a layer of card stock under it.  

Her inside greeting is from the Unbounded Love set.  The gems are from the Holographic Resin dots.

Measurements:

  • Strawberry Slush card base 8 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 5 3/4", 6 1/4", 7 3/4"
  • front CS panel 2 3/4" X 4"
  • DSP 2 pieces at 1 3/8" X 5 3/8", pieces under the greeting are 2 3/4" X 1 1/4", 2 3/4" X 1/4" and inside is 2 3/4" X 1 1/4" 
  • inside White panel 2 3/4" X 4"

Next is a neat Latch card made by Kathy who used the Sweet Jar bundle seen here. 

Her colors include Cloud Cover and Strawberry Slush. The Designer Paper is from the Florals in Bloom DSP seen here. 

The front flap opens up to reveal another panel that she stamped with coffee beans and the die-cut from the Paper Pumpkin add on dies (now retired).

And the front panel open up too!  

Measurements:

  • card base 7 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • DSP 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • White panels X 3 – 2 3/4" square; inside 4" X 5 1/4"
  • Strawberry Slush square 3"
  • 2 1/2" X 1" scored at 1 1/4" connecting piece

~~~

And now for the final card today. This one was made by Paula and was cased from Heidi Colins.  It's called a Buckle card:

She used the Floral Impressions DSP on the front and cut a window in the front panels so the buckle could slip in.  

Products used include the Stylish Shapes dies, Swirly EF, In Color flat pearls, and Brass Butterflies.

Measurements:

  • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • DSP 4" X 5 1/4", inside 3 3/4" X 1/2" 
  • buckle 4 1/2" X 1 1/4" scored at 1/2"
  • largest circle is 2 1/8" but Paula recommends slightly larger

  • Misty Trees Beauty of Friendship card


    With each new catalog I always join several card swaps so I have lots of samples to share with my customers.  

    Here's one I created featuring the Beauty of Friendship Bundle. 

    The colors are the new In Colors of course; Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen.  The background stamping is made by stamping the trees several times without reinking. This gives you several hues/generations of ink which creates a misty, grouping of trees.  I love this effect with a 'naked' tree!  It reminds me of my Father-in-Law who loved naked trees.  

    Other details:

    • The greeting is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink on a 1" strip of our Vellum card stock.  I immediately heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Classic (or waterbase) ink does not dry quickly on vellum so you get colored, embossing easily. 
    • The vellum was cut long enough to wrap around the outside edge and adhere to the back side.
    • The dark tree was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink on White CS and die-cut with the Beautiful Trees dies. 

    You can see this Beauty of Friendship bundle here.  It's just lovely and I think it's going to be super popular!

  • Pansy Petals cards kit to go; pretty & spring-like!


    The new Pansy Petals designer paper is so pretty it was easy to create beautiful, eye catching cards with it. 

    Here are a few reasons why I love this new Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper:

    • It has three different sheets of gingham; all in the new In Colors
    • There are full sheets filled with life-like pansies and pretty leaves
    • The pansy dies coordinate with these flowers and leaves!  No fussy cutting if you have them. 
    • It features each of the 5 beautiful, new In Colors!!  

    Anyway; this pre-cut kit to go is available through May May 18th.  There is also a pdf tutorial available.

    This kit includes the following:

    • 1/2 pkg of Pansy Petals DSP (6" X 12")
    • 2021-23 In Color jewels
    • Soft Succulent ribbon
    • 10 pre-cut cards; 3 of the 5 designs are fancy folds!
    • the PDF tutorial including measurements, photos, supply list & step by step directions

    The kit does not include pre-stamped images, adhesive or stamps. I used the Pansy Patch bundle for greetings and the dies to cut out the flowers & leaves from the DSP.  You can also fussy cut them if you choose to.   

    *This kit will likely be mailed in early June due to a back-order on the In Color jewels.

    The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment.
