Quick All Aflutter card with the Extraordinary Washi tape

Here’s a sweet card made with both the All Aflutter bundle and the Extraordinary Washi tape:

My colors include Calypso Coral, Old Olive and White. The Arches dies used in White here give a wonderful focal point to highlight the butterflies, greeting and flowers from the Washi tape. Unfortunately they are out of stock currently; but see them here and put your email in to get notified when they’re back in stock.

The background texture on the Old Olive layer is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder. This folder is super popular and out of stock right now. Again, please add your email to be notified when it’s available.

I love the Extraordinary Washi tape with coordinating die. You can cut out lots of colored flowers and leaves with ONE CUT! I save the extras to use them when I need just a little something extra. See the Washi tape here (you get 10 yards!) and the coordinating die-cut here. There’s also a bundle you can get here; it includes both the stamps and die-cut.

It’s simple to use this washi tape! Start by adhering a strip of it to white card stock (vellum or window sheet also works). Then use the die-cut to cut all of the pieces out.

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it out.

There’s also a video tutorial for this card and another sweet All Aflutter fun fold card. See it below.

  Next is a pretty birthday card made by Sharon.  She featured the Bright & Beautiful DSP seen here.  

  

  She also used the Gold Celebrations 12 X 12 specialty paper too. See the confetti gold acetone on the blue balloon?  She also added a few dies and embossing folders as well. Natural Prints dies for the greeting and the Countryside Corners dies for the Misty Moonlight & Berry Burst die-cuts, the Basics 3D (online exclusive) and Cane Weave 3D folders

• Neat Fun Fold swaps by my Flowerbug’s Team

  June 22, 2023

  ---

  Our Team gathering and swap was this past weekend and our theme was to use designer paper.  

  This first card was made by Marla and features the Countryside Inn DSP.  

  It looks like an ordinary gatefold card, but it's not!  It latches closed with the heart & leaf punches on the right side! 

  Measurements are as follows:

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 3" and 8 1/2"
  • Designer paper is 2 3/4" X 4" on the left and 2 1/4" X 4" on the right.  *same on the inside

  

  It's hard to tell in the photo but the top right corner of the large, layered die-cut catches under the punched pieces on the upper right of the card base.  So cool and smart!  I love it when a fun fold card stays closed easily.  

  She featured the Countryside Inn designer paper seen here.  If you love blues, you need this pretty paper! And it's on sale in June – down from $12.50 to $10.62 now.   

  She also added more of the pretty paper inside her card.  

  

  Next is a sweet card by Candy – (see what I did there?)  She featured the Zoo Crew designer paper and Zany Zoo bundle. She colored each of those flowers with a Blends marker! 

  

  It's a 'book-binding' card fold.  Start out with a 4 1/4" X 11" card base; score at 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". You'll adhere the 'binding' area down so the card opens at the 4 1/4" score line.  

  Her coloring is beautiful; I believe she used Blends markers.  

  The embossing folder is the Countryside Blossoms and the stitched circles and banner are from the Stylish Shapes dies. 

  I'll share more team swaps tomorrow!

  Here is another fun fold card I made on last week's Tuesday video.  If you'd like to watch me live, join me on Tuesday's at 11 am CT here on Facebook or see them later on my YouTube channel here. 

  This card features the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper and a favorite card theme of 'Black & White with a pop of color'.  

  

  The pretty floral paper sheet in the Delightfully Eclectic DSP chose the color theme.  I fussy cut one of the flowers from the designer paper to add to my stitched circle die-cut.  I mimicked the dots in the DSP and used the Dots & Spots die on a piece of the Fresh Freesia card stock.  

  This Delightfully Eclectic designer paper is on sale now in June.  See it here. 

  The measurements are listed in the photo below.  

  

  Here are all three of the cards I share in the video. Scroll down a bit or watch it here. 

  

  Here's the link to see a recent video featuring this card.  I also make two other cards made with the Delightfully Eclectic designer paper.
