A WOW fun fold card that has to be the easiest ever!

May 3, 2024

If you are looking for a great idea for designer papers that create a scene this layout is it!

Start with a card base of 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4". Then cut a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of designer paper and trim off the right side at 3/4". Add that strip to the left side of your card base and the larger half to the left folded side.

Isn't that the best & most simple layout?! Think of the many cards you could make with this design.

The card features the stunning Meandering Meadows designer paper pack. This paper can be found here in our Online Exclusives – but is currently unavailable until later May.

I wouldn't wait too long to order this DSP; when they run out they don't always re-order and then it's gone for good. That's how the Online Exclusive products work.

One more Forever Fern card with video; in my favorite colors!

June 19, 2020

As I've said before I cannot get enough of this stamp set. And when it's in some of my favorite colors too, well it hits all the high points in my stamping world.

We made these pretty cards at my June card clubs. Simple stamping at it's best!!

Save

The colors here are Gorgeous Grape, which is gorgeous!, Old Olive and Bermuda Bay. The pretty die is from the Tasteful Labels set of dies seen here.

This stamp set really makes you feel like an artist. These Distinktive stamps are absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough about how much I love them. Even when you stamp over the images it doesn't matter as they appear somewhat translucent.

2 cute cards with the Pampered Pets bundle

June 18, 2020
I featured the Playful Pets bundle when I made these two cards at Tuesday's Facebook Live this week. This suite is absolutely adorable!

Here's a close up of the first card. The texture of the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder is so neat. It's subtle but still quite noticeable with a unique texture.

Save

This card shows just a peak of the cute Playful Pets designer series paper between the textured layers.

See the paw prints on the bottom right? That is a die in the Pets dies. I placed a scrap of Black CS behind it to show it off. You can see the entire Playful Pets suite here.

The dog is cut from the Playful Pets DSP; the Pet dies match some of the images in the paper! I added a bit of the Playful Pets trim for a collar and a bone from the Pet Trinkets. Below are the measurements for this card:
- Real Red 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 1” X 5 ½”, 2 ¼” X 5 ½” textured pieces
- 1 ¼” X 5 ½” Designer Series Paper
Other products used: Tasteful Textile folder, Stitched Shapes and Layering Circles dies

Below are both cards I made in the FB Live video. Click here to see it.

The second card is a unique fold where the Black piece is the full back of the card and the Real Red is scored for the card opening. It's a fun and unique card that works well with our Designer paper. Whether you use 6 X 6" or 12 X 12" paper it all works without much waste when cutting.

Measurements:
- Black 5 ½” X 4 1/4”
- Real Red 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”,
- Designer Series Paper 5 ½” X 3”
- Soft Suede 1" X 4 1/4"
- White strip is 3/4" X 3 1/2"
