Card ideas for the Box & Cards; free project sheet with video tutorial


I shared this beautiful box with cards on yesterday’s blog post. You’ll see it in the video and project sheet below too. Today I’ll focus on the cards included in the pretty box.

The featured products include the Lovely Blossoms suite. This card box can fit up to 6 cards with envelopes inside. It’s super easy to make too! It’s included in the free project sheet seen below.

For these cards I used the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here. And the Lovely Blossoms designer series paper seen here.

This first card is a fun fold card; quite unique!

It doesn’t look much different from the front. The colors include Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive & White. Here’s a photo of it open:

The White inside layer has two extra folds in it. There’s a narrow flap adhered to the card front that let’s it open in an unusual way. The measurements are in the free project sheet below.

This next card is deceptively simple; but I added a simple trick to layering the DSP on the front:

The main image is from the Lovely Blossoms DSP. This DSP includes multiple printed elements perfect to make the focus of the card. It’s the printed Olive DSP under it I want to call your attention to. Both pieces measure 3″ X 4″. I cut the Olive DSP in half on the diagonal and added that as a layer to the flower layer. Quick and easy but unique. Instead of the traditional even layers this adds interest to your card.

Lastly is a card that shows off a special die-cut in the Lovely Arrangements bundle:

It’s Petal Pink with Secret Sea and White. That multiple circles die is so cool! It truly adds some playfulness to the card. The greeting is stamped on a circle die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

My free project sheet includes these 3 cards plus the template and instructions for the card box as well. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for the box and tips on assembling the fun fold card at the top. Don’t forget to follow me on my YouTube Channel here or my Facebook Page here.

  • Changing Leaves Dutch Door card with free project sheet & video


    It's free shipping today!  Plus my annual Mystery Box sale! 

    ~~~

    Are you drawn to monochromatic cards like me?  Today's project is entirely green tones.  It's a card we made at Club in August and it features the beautiful Changing Leaves bundle. 

    The colors include Old Olive, Mossy Meadow & White. I chose the very special Changing Leaves bundle for this because of the neat textures you can achieve with the 3D embossing folder that matches the large leaves die.

    This bundle has been out of stock for quite a few weeks but should return around September 23rd. See it here. 

    The White rectangle is from the Deckled Rectangle dies seen here. 

    It's a Dutch Door card fold where the side opens up and brings the center layers with it. This long piece is 11" X 2 1/4" and is scored at 5 1/2". It's attached to the bottom of the 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" card base.  Check out the free project sheet for it.

  • Diamond Gatefold fun fold card with Season of Green & Gold specialty paper – video too!


    On last week's Live video I created this beautiful fun fold card. It shows off both sides of our double sided designer paper beautifully! 

    I chose to feature the stunning Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper seen here online.  It's filled with shades of green with gold foil accents and is part of our Online product line.

    I cased my friend Susie Wood who made the card on the left below: 

    She used the Regal Flora designer paper in Cherry Cobbler with Blackberry Bliss. So very pretty!  Find more projects by my talented friend from Iowa here on her blog. 

    I love this neat fold!

    Details:

    • The pretty gold die-cut is from the Peaceful Season bundle seen here.
    • The greeting is from the Something Fancy stamp set seen here
    • The leaf die-cuts are from the Delicate Forest dies seen here

    Look at the extra details inside too. Wedding cards are fun because you can go over the top a bit! This gorgeous card will be given to my youngest son who's getting married this week.  I'm so thrilled for him and his fiance'. We're excited to welcome her into our family! 

    It used a pieces of designer paper measuring 12" X 5 1/4" that is adhered to a card base of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".  It's scored at 2", 4", 8" and 10". Then the corners are folded down. Here's the simple template I drew:
