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.

• Multiple amazing ‘WOW’ cards featuring the Legendary Ride bundle!

  March 13, 2023

  ---

  Each month in our Flowerbug's Team a member is featured as 'Artist of the Month' and shows off a bundle or suite of projects.  In February it was Jane and she chose to use the Legendary Ride bundle.  She did an amazing and creative group of cards!

  Take a look at these incredible samples:

  
  

  Do you see the orange racks holding up the bike?  She used the 'seat' dies to create it.  She also sponged on them a bit so they were 'well used'!  Ha!  

  The background with clouds and the checkered bottom are all from the Ready to Ride DSP.  Look at the detail on her motorcycle!  The dies are incredibly detailed. 

  This next card is a center step card.  It also features multiple pieces of the Ready to Ride designer paper. It's hard to see in the photo but she die-cut the seat from the Black foil in the DSP.  

  

  She sure made the most of this unique Legendary Ride bundle by Stampin' Up!  You can see it here online. 

  

  This next card features a pocket greeting on the front. You can pull it up and remove it to use as a bookmark. She textured the front panel with the Metal Plate 3D embossing folder seen here.  Perfect texture for this guy card.  

  

  She added color to the Ready to Ride floral paper above using a Sweet Sorbet Blends marker. She really showed off this unique designer paper on her projects.  I LOVE the shiny black foil accents.  See it here.

  

  Next is a great guy birthday card that doesn't feature a motorcycle at all. She added elements from the He's the Man DSP in the Annual Caalog.  

  

  And last is this neat card with a road map and bike tread with a more colorful bike.  See the Adhesive Backed studs on the upper corners?  They pair wonderful with this suite.  See them here. 

  
  

  Thanks for sharing your creativity with us Jane! Your creativity & talent is amazing!

• Sweet Citrus; in a Lime version too!

  March 10, 2023

  ---

  The Sweet Citrus bundle can make any citrus fruit you'd like.  I've even seen people make coconuts! 

  I've shared three other cards featuring oranges, grapefruit and lemons but today I'm sharing my 'Lime' version.  

  

  I used the Sweet Citrus bundle seen here and these colors: Starry Sky, Parakeet Party and Granny Apple Green. I cased it from a card made by Maheswari Rajaguru.  I think these colors are stunning together. 

  That pretty texture on the card front is made with the new Basic Embossing Folders 3D seen here.  They're in a 3 pack and in our Online Exclusives product line seen here. 

  Did you know you can use our Hybrid embossing folders to texture and die-cut all at once?  You can use the dies and folder separately as well but together it's faster and saves a step.*Watch in the video below to see how it's done. 

  

  I also show how to stamp the fruit perfectly using the Stamparatus.  Perfect every time! 

  Here's a photo of the inside: 

  

  Below is a photo of all 4 cards I shared in my recent video featuring the Sweet Citrus bundle. Oranges, limes, grapefruit and lemons!  This bundle is a true gem!
