Cut once for two card fronts with the Border Basics dies; video tips & tutorial too

I shared one of the cards I made in last week's video and here's another one. Both feature the same three products: Masterfully Made designer paper, Wanted to Say dies and the Border Basics dies.

I used the White die-cut leftover from the card I shared yesterday on this card; basically getting two cards from one die-cut!

The Border Basics dies are wonderful and so versatile since they die-cut the stitched edge on both sides.  Below is a photo of the inside of the card:

The Celebrate, Happy Birthday, stars and present die-cuts are all from the Wanted to Say dies seen here: 

Save

Here are both cards I shared; each with a different piece of the Masterfully Made CS.  As you can see I added a thin line of card stock to rest the 'Celebrate' die-cut on. I love the effect!

You can see this beautiful designer paper here.  It's discounted in June; down to $10.62.

The photo below shows both cards; one cut for two card front!

I cut the right side of the card front off (on the left card) and used that piece on the card on the right. Essentially I cut the card front in half and added it to the card on the right, adding DSP underneath to show off the angles.  One cut; two cards!  

You can see how I made this card on the video here.  Or click on the photo below to watch. Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on my YouTube channel here.

  The end of Sale-a-Bration is nearing and I had to get one more play in with these two amazing products. A Touch of Ink stamp set & Oh So Ombre Designer Paper.  Both of these are free with a qualifying order through February 28th.

  This sliding latch card is quite unique and fun too.  My friend Karen shared it with us at a recent Team meeting and I had to learn how to make it. She found the idea from Chris Slogar.  It's so cool!

  You need the Classic Label punch, Designer paper and a few punched or die-cut images for the front and inside.

  I chose to use the flower and hummingbird images in this set.  I stamped the flower using both the outline and solid images.  For the hummingbird I stamped the outline image on a scrap of White CS and colored it in with Blends markers.  Then I fussy cut it out and added to the circles.

• Beautiful Love You Always Foil Specialty paper

  February 23, 2021

  ---

  Last weekend we held our monthly card swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  The theme was to use Specialty paper on their card.  

  The cards I'm sharing today all feature the Love You Always Specialty Foil papers.  Did you know we have two kinds?  A smooth foil seen here and printed foil seen here.  

  This first card was created by Karen G.  She used both specialty papers with the Always in My Heart bundle. The Floral Heart dies are gorgeous!  I love the heart and that banner!!! 

  Save

  This next beauty was created by Candace. She also used both of these pretty specialty papers along with the 'Love You More Than' dies.  The embossing folder is the Parisian Flourish 3D seen here. 

  Save

  And lastly, this striking card was made by Mary.  She combined the Love You Always paper with the True Love DSP.  

  Save

  She fussy cut the flowers from the True Love DSP and colored them with Blends markers.  The Best Wishes is from the Art Gallery bundle. 

  Aren't my gals talented though!
