Amazing Side-step Vertical Easel card with Waves of the Ocean suite


We made this remarkable fun fold card at my March card clubs. It features the Waves of the Ocean suite seen here. 

Dies featured here:

  • The Dandy Wishes dies in  the Garden Wishes bundle is 20% off right now. You can see that here.  I just love the die-cuts and greetings in it.  *I wonder if this will be on the retiring list tomorrow….. 
  • The 'Thanks' and 'Amazing' dies are from the Amazing Thanks dies in the 2022 Jan-June catalog.  You can see them here.  I love the double layering you get with them!!  

This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" when finished and lays flat for mailing but stands up beautifully for display.  

You can see how this is assembled in the video below.  I also list the measurements below too. 

The card includes two white panels; one for the middle and one for the back.  We stamped the wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set using Pacific Point ink on the middle layer.  We added some Bermuda Bay ink on the wave using a Blending Brush.  We also added a soft bit of Pacific Point for the sky.  

Some left the back empty so they could add a greeting later; depending on what they needed at the time. 

As you can see below the gorgeous Waves of the Ocean designer paper includes a variety of 'paint poured' designs & colors.  I wanted it to be the main feature of the card and this fun fold made it happen!  This designer paper is available through May 1st or while supplies last.  This pretty paper, the foil and Waves rhinestones will not be in the new Annual catalog. 


Everyone who orders the Waves of the Ocean suite collection from me will receive my exclusive PDF & video for 11 beautiful projects!  


I used the Dandy Wishes dies for the 'flower heads'.  For the right card below I trimmed off a few of the side pieces to create a smaller flower head. 

Measurements:

  • Pacific Point 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 1 1/4, 2 1/2" & 2 1/2" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" 
    Waves of the Ocean DSP 2 1/4" X 5 1/4"
    White X2 – 3" X 4" (front & back)
    scraps of White & Navy for die-cuts

  • Striking cards with Pretty Perennials with True Love DSP


    If the True Love designer paper hasn't caught your eye yet look at these cards:  

    I paired it with the Pretty Perennials stamp and dies bundle for a recent FB Live.  I used Bermuda Bay, Real Red and black. Simple Stamping at it's best!  No die-cuts or punches either!  Sometimes it's fun to just stamp and layer.  

    You can see the measurements below. I try to share the printed list in my videos so they're easy to jot down.

    Lastly here's the stepped-up card I made using heat embossing and the Perennial Petal dies.  See the Pretty Perennial bundle here.

    I also used our new Blending Brushes to add color to the white flowers.  Love these so much! 

    Measurements are below and you can watch the FB Live replay video below: 

    I think cards featuring black and White with a pop of color are so striking and stand out.  What do you think?

  • Easiest Shaker card you’ll ever make!


    Giving an interactive card makes the card extra special like shakers, spinners or fun folds.  But they can be time consuming or a lot of work.  

    I used the free 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  You can see it here.  That background was made with our Blending Brushes and Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral ink.

    This type of shaker card is truly easy; really!  Besides the stamped element you need three basic things:

    1.  A clear envelope
    2. Strong adhesive
    3. Sequins, beads or tiny punched pieces

    Insert your stamped card stock into the clear envelope, fold the excess envelope over to the back and seal with adhesive leaving one end open.  Add your fun filler and seal closed.  

    The pretty sequins in this card are the Woven Threads sequins in the annual catalog on page 157.

    I made a video in December on making one of these shaker cards.  Even though it's a Christmas card it's the same technique. Here it is:
