3 in 1 Triple Panel cards

I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below

The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here.  The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare.  Then afterwards you can share your cards too!

I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it.  I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here.  You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.  

I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle.  That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set. 

Measurements:
Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".
Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.
 
Cutting directions:
1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.
2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.
The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.
Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!

On the cards above the colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Smoky Slate and the same Tasteful Touches bundle and leaf die from above.

  • Inked Embossing Folder technique; it’s SO pretty!

    I decided to play with an old favorite technique where you add ink directly onto an embossing folder 'before' you run it through the die-cutting machine.  I shared how on the FB Live video here.

    This first card features the Polished Pink CS & ink.

    I used two new products in our 2021-22 Annual Catalog; the Pretty Embossing folder and the Create with Friends stamp set seen here.  That pretty die-cut label is from the Potted Succulents dies seen here. 

    This Pretty Embossing folder seen here is my free giveaway for online orders over $50 this month (before tax & shipping) using the host code seen below.  

    I made one in each of our newest In Colors; Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent and the Polished Pink.

  • Coloring Techniques with the Pretty Flowers Embossing folder! With video!

    Have you ever added color/ink directly onto your embossing folder?  It's actually fun and the results can be amazing!  I shared three different techniques on my weekly FB Live Tuesday.  Here's a link to it on my FB page or on YouTube here.  Or scroll below to see it here.  

    This first card is done by coloring on your folder with markers.  These are regular water-based markers; not Blends.  I share tips for success on this technique in the video.  

    Each card features the stamp set Create with Friends seen here.  I love this set! The embossing folder is called Pretty Flowers; it's my free gift for online orders over $50 in June! *see it here

    I chose to use Soft Succulent on both cards adding Pale Papaya on the left and Fresh Freesia on the right.  Love our newest In Colors!!!  The greeting layer is from the Tasteful Label dies.

    Next is a sponging technique.  I embossed the White CS with the folder in the die-cutting machine first.  Then used sponge daubers to color the White CS.  I highly recommend you use pastel colors for this for the best results. It's much more forgiving!

    I used the Poppy dies for the greeting layer.

    And the last technique is to add ink directly onto the folder itself; before you run it through.  Press your ink pad lightly to the side of the folder you want inked.  Do this lightly to avoid getting ink in the recesses of the folder.  Again; watch my video for more tips!
