A pretty Tri-Fold card with the Around the Bend bundle – video too


I created this pretty card for last week's FB Live video.  I featured 3 cards with the Around the Bend bundle.  This might be my favorite. 

The colors include White, Soft Succulent & Petal Pink.  The Around the Bend bundle can be seen here.  It was one of my top picks from the Spring catalog. 

Did you know there are a few stamp sets in the 2023 Jan-April Spring catalog that are available in either Photopolymer or Cling rubber?  You can choose which one you'd like!  Love this option.  I believe they are offering the choice to see what we prefer and if it's feasible to offer both.  

Here's how it looks open.  I added a piece of Evening Evergreen under the die-cut front flap to show off the pretty, delicate dots & curve.  I trimmed the edge of this Evergreen layer with a paper snips.  

Here are the measurements: 

  • White 5 ½” X 11” scored at 4 & 8”
  • Soft Succulent 5 ½” X 4 ¼”
  • Evening Evergreen 5 ½” X 2 ¾”

The flowers & leaves are also from this bundle.  I added the large flower & leaf layer with Dimensionals so it caught the upper flap, holding it closed.  

Below is the video where I made this card; it's the third and last project.

  • More Specialty Paper Team swaps with measurements!


    Here are a few more team swaps featuring Stampin’ Up!’s specialty papers:

    First up today is Tracey’s card who used the fractured technique.

    This technique starts with a large piece of designer paper. Then add the diagonal square layer. Next you simply start adding the thin strips of DSP around the edges of the square piece; trimming off the excess on the outer edges. So easy!

    She chose the Lovely & Beautiful DSP for the main piece and the strips are the Season of Elegance specialty DSP found in the Annual Catalog.
    The greeting is from Blessed Beginnings stamp set. I love the thin layer of gold on the outer edge!

    Measurements:

    • Olive card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
    • Gold layer 5 1/8″ X 3 7/8″
    • DSP is 3 3/4″ X 5″, inside DSP 5 1/4″ X 4″
    • thin DSP strips are 1/4″ thick.
    • White square is1 7/8″, inside is 5″ X 3 3/4″

    The inside greeting is from Prayers & Promises, the flower and leaves are from the Simply Beautiful stamp set.

    Next is a pretty card made by Marla who also used the Season of Elegance DSP.

    The main circle dies are from the brand new Springtime Scenes bundle which is currently out of stock. The greeting circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.
    Her colors are Blackberry Bliss, Crushed Curry & Basic Beige.

    Card base is 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″. DSP is 4″ X 5 1/4″

    More swaps are coming tomorrow!
