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.

• Cheerful Daisies card; perfect for Springtime!

  May 17, 2023

  ---

  I'm excited to share this pretty card with you. We made it at my May card clubs. It features the Cheerful Daisy bundle.  

  

  I absolutely love the colors!  I chose Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, white and the new Azure Afternoon.  I think the blue washed layer from the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper shows off the white & yellow daisies perfectly.  

  Here's how we finished the inside: 

  

  I sponged extra yellow on the Lemon Lolly daisy centers before adding the White die-cut over them. Here's  a photo of the dies  display I made: I did not add the separate individual daisies that fir over the large yellow die-cut below.  On my card they're white.

  

  The ribbon wraps all around the card front and ties on the far left.  The greeting covers the knot so you see mostly the ends. 

  

  Check out that amazing, detailed greenery die-cut!  It even comes out of the die easily.  Love it!  

  
  

  See the Cheerful Daisies bundle here; I think it's wonderful!  Best daisy set we've had for awhile.

• Quick cards with just ONE sheet of the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper!

  May 16, 2023

  ---

  The Fresh as a Daisy designer paper seen here is filled with pretty daisy prints and soft washes of colors – many are our newest In Colors and Core colors! 

  Here are the 4 cards I made from just one sheet!

  

  This one sheet has a bunch of printed, blocked patterns ready to make fast cards with.  

  

  One of my favorites is this one; featuring a pretty bouquet of white daisies on our new Bubble Bath pink color. 

  I added a strip of White card stock below, ribbon, a greeting and a pretty foliage die-cut which are both from the Cheerful Daisies bundle. 

  I LOVE this one!  Again, white daisies on a washed background. I paired this piece over a strip of Early Espresso cardstock on a Lemon Lolly card base.  I heat embossed the greeting in White on the die-cut in the Cheerful Daisies bundle. White twine finished it off! 

  What a gorgeous scenic background this is!  I dd nothing to it but stamp the stems & leaves and added the die-cut daisies, greeting and gems.  The colors are Copper Clay with Crushed Curry. 

  

  Lastly is this pretty triple-panel card in Azure Afternoon with Copper Clay.  I cut the daisy panel into three pieces measuring  1 5/8" X 4" tall. 

  Again I heat embossed the greeting in White embossing powder onto a piece of Copper Clay card stock. I added a die-cut daisy to the side. 

  

  I'm featuring this pretty paper in one of my May card kits to go. I have a limited supply of them so grab yours while you can.  See it here.  

  Which one of these is your favorite?

• Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

  May 15, 2023

  ---

  This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not! 
  

  Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

  The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!  

  
  

  If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

  I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

  And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed. 

  

   

   

  I have enjoyed playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle this month.  You cannot go wrong with balloons; they're great for birthday's, graduations, weddings or any celebratory event. 

  
   You can see this bundle here online.
