4-Card Wonder – free PDF tutorial, template, measurements & video!

Before we get to the projects today I want to share the sale Stampin' Up! just announced:

Save

Check over your wish list and see how many stamp sets are on it.  Might be a good time to place an order. With the Bonus Days happening you can double dip!

Plus the Trucking Along bundle is back in stock!  See it here; get it while you can.  

I'm extremely excited & proud to share this project with you.  If you know me well, you know I love to create one sheet wonders. I've made quite a few over the last 10 years or so.  I'm so lucky that my husband is willing to create the templates for me; I'm not sure I'd love them as much without his help!  

I'm calling this project a 4-Card Wonder because it creates 4 cards.  I originally made this for a Team meeting project. I wanted it to be quick, create multiple cards and of course be easy and cute!  

Save

I shared this project & template on my weekly Live video but did record it and it's now on my YouTube channel as well. Scroll down to see the video.  

Here's the template – it's meant for a 1/2 sheet of card stock – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2".  

Save

Grab your favorite colors of ink and stamp your own background.  Then cut it up using the measurements above!  It's so fun to create your own stamped paper. It's a bit addictive!  

*Tip – choose stamps that include large & small images. When stamping your paper start with the largest stamps first and finish with the smallest; filling in any empty areas. 

I chose the Beautiful Balloons bundle.  My colors include Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, Pool Party & Parakeet Party. 

Save

I kept the cards quite simple but you could sure jazz them up a bit more.  Make the cards like mine or this can be a starting point for your creative process.  

You can watch the video on this project here.  It's the first project. Or click on the photo down below to watch it below.  *Remember to follow me on either my FB page here (Tuesday Live videos) or my YouTube channel here. 

Here's the full PDF tutorial for you.  Download it here.

• Butterfly Kisses fun fold card with Enamel Effects

  September 6, 2022

  ---

  Here's the last fun fold card I made in last week's FB Live video.  Each one featured the Butterfly Kisses designer paper and the Charming Sentiments bundle. 

  Save

  The dots on the pretty die-cut butterfly and circle are made with our new Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics seen here.  It comes in three colors and is so easy to use.  

  You can even make your own removable enamel dots by applying it to excess mini glue dot tape or to our Silicone Mat.

  I used a few sets of dies on this card: Build a Butterfly, Sentiment Silhouettes, Stylish Shapes (stitched circle) & Stitched with Whimsy (stitched frame).  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Calypso Coral 5 ½” X 4 ¼”
  • Starry Sky 5” X 3 ¾” plus 2 1/2" stitched circle 
  • White is 9 ¾” X 3 ½” scored at 2 ½” & 5”

• Another easy but fun fold card with Butterfly Kisses

  September 2, 2022

  ---

  Here's one more quick fun fold card idea for you.  The entire front flap of the card is your designer paper!  So cool! 

  Save

  Again I used the Butterfly Kisses 6" designer paper seen here.  It's in the 2022-23 Annual Catalog and so full of fun patterns & bright colorful butterflies.  The butterflies are perfect to fussy cut too!  

  Can you see how the front right piece of designer paper is anchored to just the very left flap of the main card base?  

  Save

  I used the Charming Sentiments stamp set for my greeting and the Stylish Shapes dies for the stitched circle. These dies are currently out of stock but will be back by mid September. 

  The measurements are in the photo below: 

  Save

  I also used the Fun Flower Resin Shapes on the cards too. They are part of the Butterfly Kisses Suite seen here.  

  Save

  Click on the photo below to watch the video and see how to make ALL of these neat fun fold card ideas.
