Pretty Bridge fold card with Snowflake Kisses with free project sheet & video tutorial

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It features the Elegant Pine Snowflake designer paper and the Snowflake Kisses bundle.

My colors include Pretty Peacock, White & Lost Lagoon above. The Elegant Pine Snowflake designer paper is beautiful and can be seen here.

I created a second card with Secret Sea as the card base instead of Pretty Peacock. Which do you prefer?

This card is a bridge fun fold layout. It starts out with a 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ card base but requires two extra cuts from the center score line down 1 1/8″ from each edge. It’s easy with our Paper Trimmer. Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

I created a free project sheet for you with photos and measurements. Click here to print or download it.

I hope you try one. If you haven’t made one before please watch the video below. They are quite fun to make & open!

The photo below shows the card closed, the main panel lifted and the inside! Tip: We used a handmade stencil to sponge snowflakes on the inside. *cut snowflakes from a piece of card stock and sponge or blend ink through the windows.

Below is the video tutorial which includes a second card with this bundle. I hope you watch it! Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here.

• 3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

  February 7, 2024

  ---

  I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video: 

  

  The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia.  I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture! 

  I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards. 

  Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!? 

  

  Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:

  1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
  2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
  3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!

  

  Products used here:

  • Layered Floral 3D embossing folder; seen here
  • Deckled Circle dies seen here
  • Vellum card stock
  • Cheerful Daisy dies
  • Heartfelt Hellos stamp set from Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here; free with a $50 order

  Which is your favorite?

• Stunning cards in the Lovely Lavender card kit to go!

  February 6, 2024

  ---

  I love these gorgeous cards so much!  They have lots of details & elements but they're still quick to create!

  

  This card kit includes 12 cards; you'll make 4 each of 3 card designs. It's based on the Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin refill kit but I've added an extra 4 cards, changed them up and added on extra product to jazz them up.

  The kit includes the following:

  • 12 card bases, greeting labels & die-cut elements for the 12 cards
  • a share of Fine Shimmer Purple gems
  • a share of Paper Butterfly Accents
  • 12 envelopes
  • The PDF tutorial with photos & step by step directions

  This kit does not include stamps or inks. You'll need greetings, purple ink & adhesives to complete the cards. I used the Charming Sentiments set. 

  Click here to reserve your kit for $28 plus shipping. 

  I have a limited supply of these kits; do not wait long to reserve yours!  The kits will be mailed out at the end of February. The PDF tutorial will be sent via email immediately after payment. Check your junk folder. 

  I have 6 other pre-cut card kits & 1 scrapbook kit available in my shop right now.  Save on shipping and order more than one! 

  Here's a photo of the other new February kit or tutorial I'm offering.

• Flight & Airy surprise accordion fold with video & free project sheet

  February 5, 2024

  ---

  I shared this beautiful card in last week's Live video. We also made it at my local Card Clubs as well.  

  

  There are so many fabulous projects and features on this pretty card front I'll list them here:

  • The colors are Fresh Freesia with Boho Blue & White.
  • The Fresh Freesia layer is first cut with the Perennial Postage dies before texturing. 
  • The beautiful texture is from the Layering Floral 3D embossing folder seen here.  I cannot recommend this folder enough!  I rubbed my Craft White ink pad directly over the deep texture to highlight the flowers. *watch the video
  • The pretty butterfly is from our Paper Butterfly Accents. We added Boho Blue & Fresh Freesia ink to it with Blending Brushes. 
  • The greeting stamps are from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.  It's one of our free choices with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 
  • The White greeting label is made by punching the ends of a 1" wide strip of card stock with our Handmade Tag punch.  It's layered onto the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
  • See the Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's another free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order through February, or while supplies last.
  • The inside layers were also made with the Perennial Postage dies (like the front layer) 

  But the coolest thing about this card is that you get a fun surprise once you open it! 

  

  There's a full strip of Flight or Fancy designer paper inside, folded accordion style in the center. This leaves the outer areas flat for adding greetings etc.  Remember there's a video tutorial to watch here or below. 

  

  You can add more labels, greetings or punches on each of the accordion folds as well if you wish.

  I hope you like this pretty, fun fold card!  It was a hit with my Club gals. 

  

  Here's the video tutorial for this card and a few more featuring some of these products.  Plus lots of product tips too!
