Gorgeous Triple Fold card with Garden Poetry with video & free project sheet

I shared this stunning card on last week’s Live video. It features a few of my favorite products..

I chose to feature my favorite new designer paper – Garden Poetry seen here. Aren’t the patterns and watercolor backgrounds beautiful?

This is Poppy Parade, Black & White.
The other items I used are the Nature’s Symphony bundle, the Perennial Postage and Springtime Scenes dies (flower).

The front left flap opens like this:

Then you open the right side and fold the left in and this is what you see:

I fussy cut a flower from the designer paper to add inside. The Black die-cut leaves are both from the Nature’s Symphony dies.

Here’s the free project sheet; click here to download or print it off.

The card was inspired by my teammate Jacki, who shared this neat fun fold in our February swap. I’ll share her card tomorrow.

Below is the video tutorial; I hope you like it enough to make one. It’s a super fun card!

• Friends for Life cards; a quick layout you’ll love. Check out the free project sheet & video too

  July 2, 2024

  Today I'm sharing an eye-catching card made with the Friends for Life bundle.  I think they're fabulous if I do say so myself!

  

  They feature the Friends for Life bundle seen here.  I also used two more favorites – the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder.  *Click on each title to see them in my store. 

  The unique Designer paper is the Full of Life 6 X 6" paper seen here.  I love it so much; it includes bright bursts of colorful patterns filled with watercolor type prints.  *my free tutorial of the month features this suite!  See below. 

  

  The measurements are so simple. I cut the 6" DSP down to 5 1/4" X 6" and then cut that into two pieces – one for each card. I then textured it with the Dotted 3D embossing folder and added it to a narrow strip of coordinating card stock on the left side. 

  All that's left is to add the layered circles and friend die-cut. 

  I matched the DSP with coordinating card stock. The card above is Night of Navy and this card below is Shaded Spruce.
