Another way to use the Gorgeous Garden dies in a fun fold card with video tutorial


I shared this beautiful card on a recent video.  I sure had fun with the colors on this card!

It's a double-decker fun fold card.  It might look hard but it sure isn't!  All you need to add is a simple box between the middle layer and the inside back of the card.  Watch the video here to see how it's done.  

Using our Blending Brushes I added the three colors (Tahitian Tide, Brilliant Blue & Gorgeous Grape) to a piece of White cardstock.  I then used the Garden dies to die-cut it out.  I adhered this to the back of the card base before adding the 'box' to create the double-decker fun fold card. 

I created a second colorful die-cut so I could add extra details to the cards.   

Supplies:

  • Basic White & Brilliant Blue card stock
  • Vellum Basics specialty paper seen here
  • Inks – Brilliant Blue, Gorgeous Grape & Tahitian Tide
  • Lasting Joy stamp set seen here
  • Gorgeous Garden dies
  • Basic 3D embossing folders seen here
  • Stylish Shapes dies for the circles
  • Scalloped Contours dies for the scalloped rectangle
  • Blending Brushes

Double-decker card measurements:

  • White card 8 ½” X 5 ½” score at 2 1/8” & 4 ¼”, front textured layer is 1 7/8” X 5 ¼”,
  • White for die-cut 4” X 5 ¼”, Scalloped die-cut 3 1/8” X 4 ½”
  • Box is 3 ½” X 4” – score every ¾”
  • Circle die-cuts – 2 3/4" white & 3" blue 

Here are both cards shown in the video below.

I made these cards on a recent video seen here.  Or click on the photo below to watch.

  • Music From the Heart; in a rainbow of colors!


    I saw a card like this online made by Diane Barnes and had to make it for my friend Becky's workshop a few weeks ago.  She loves color!  It's made with the Music From the Heart stamp set seen here.   It's just $17!

    We stamped the treble clef multiple times and the greeting on a separate piece of White CS.  Then we fussy cut the words apart and colored each one with a Blends marker.  

    The rainbow of sponged colors are done on another piece of card stock measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"; the same size as the finished card.  Our sponge daubers work perfectly here.  It looks pretty messy but you are only seeing a 'peek' of in on the edge so it really doesn't matter much. It's the rainbow of colors you're wanting on the edge. 

    Measurements:

    • White full card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White sponged layer is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
    • White stamped layer is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2"

    Details:

    • Ink colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point, Gorgeous Grape.
    • Blends colors are Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Light Navy, Dark Highland Heather

    The cute Little Ladybug stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration promotion was very popular; everyone wanted it!  It was free with a $300 order but that was difficult for many people to achieve.  


    If you've been wishing and hoping for this set now you can get one; from me!  I have 10 of them and the first 10 people to order over $100 online using this host code will get one. 49HFZ6G3  **I have 1 left as of April 10th.  

    **I suggest you consider getting any of the new Ornate Garden products OR get the retiring 2018-20 In Colors before they retire later this month.  Everything goes fast once the retired list comes out! 

    Besides getting a free stamp set you'll also get a pre-cut cards kit and written tutorial!  Here's one of the cards in the kit; it's a cute, interactive waterfall card.  

    Here's how it looks when you pull the ribbon; you get to see every ladybug.  The card opens up also with more fun inside! 

    Everything is cut out and ready for you to stamp using your very own brand-new Little Ladybug stamp set!
