Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold card


Finally I can share this beautiful fun fold card we made at my May Card Clubs!  

I like to wait until after all of my Clubs are held so I can surprise them with the cards we're making.  I'm not sure why; it's just a habit now after many years of doing it that way!  

I chose to use the Beauty of Friendship bundle (seen here) to make this unique 'Latch fold'. 

I chose to use a few of our new In Colors; So Succulent & Evening Evergreen along with Pool party.  It sure created a pretty, almost monochromatic card.  Everyone sure loved it; which is always my goal!

This fold is very deceiving but so simple!  Just a little trick at the end to put it all together.  Watch the video below! 

Download the Beauty of Friendship latch fold card project sheet or use these measurements:

  • Pool Party 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 3 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 2 3/4" along the 3 1/4" side
    Whisper White 2" X 5 1/4", 2 1/2" X 3 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4" inside, plus a scrap for die-cut

  • Another way to use the Border Basics dies – cut once for two card front!


    Here's the third card I made for last week's live video; it also features the Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.  

    My colors are Lemon Lime Twist, Cherry Cobbler and White.   The flowers in this pretty designer paper are so real; you almost want to touch them.  

    You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

    The photo below shows both cards made with the same designer paper.  I loved this pattern so well I didn't change it up for the second card. 

    The greeting and hearts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here.  

    The pretty scalloped stitched border is made with the Border Basics dies seen here. Start with a piece of White card stock measuring 4" X 5 1/4" and cut it in half with the scalloped die-cut.  Now you have the start for two cards! 

    Below are all three cards made with this three products, all seen on the video below.

  • Cut once for two card fronts with the Border Basics dies; video tips & tutorial too


    I shared one of the cards I made in last week's video and here's another one. Both feature the same three products: Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.  

    I used the White die-cut leftover from the card I shared yesterday on this card; basically getting two cards from one die-cut!

    The Border Basics dies are wonderful and so versatile since they die-cut the stitched edge on both sides.  Below is a photo of the inside of the card: 

    The Celebrate, Happy Birthday, stars and present die-cuts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here: 

    Here are both cards I shared; each with a different piece of the Masterfully Made CS.  As you can see I added a thin line of card stock to rest the 'Celebrate' die-cut on. I love the effect!

    You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

    The photo below shows both cards; one cut for two card front! 

    I cut the right side of the card front off (on the left card) and used that piece on the card on the right. Essentially I cut the card front in half and added it to the card on the right, adding DSP underneath to show off the angles.  One cut; two cards!  

    You can see how I made this card on the video here.  Or click on the photo below to watch. Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on my YouTube channel here.

  • Masterfully Made & Wanted to Say quick card ideas with video tips


    And our annual Stampin' Sale is done!  Each June my customers and I host a paper crafting sale – this year we had 30 sellers and we had a fabulous turnout!  

    That photo was just the stamps for sale; we had so much more!  I wish you could be here for it, but I know it is a long way for some to Minot, ND.  But if you're near me, plan for the weekend after Father's Day. Make a road trip if you can.  
    We had one person come from St. Louis and another who was in town visiting from Peru!  They were so glad to be here for this annual event.

    Last week I shared three card ideas featuring three products: Masterfully Made designer series paper, Wanted to Say dies and Border Basics dies. Here's one of them:

    The Masterfully Made designer paper features a torn edge look to a few of the sheets.  I chose this one because of it's beautiful colors.  I added Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Azure Afternoon in the die-cuts from the Wanted to Say dies.  This set of dies has a detailed and a layered die for each set of words in the set, plus a bunch of other dies like the flowers I used here. You can see them here.

    The angled border on the White card base is die-cut with the Basic Borders dies seen here.  I love these and use them often.  You can see them here.  I saved the piece I die-cut and used it on another card.  Here are both of the cards I made, using two different sheets of the Masterfully Made DSP. 

    You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

    As you can see, there is no stamping on the front.  But I did add a greeting to the inside:
