Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet

Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card. 

Save

It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.  

Save

For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.

A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

Save

You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

Save

I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea!

• Circle Celebration; so fun!

  April 20, 2021

  I have to share this neat card Chanda made for her Card Club swap.  I love seeing their style and what my gals make. 

  Save

  She stamped the images from the Circle Celebration stamp set (seen here) all over her 4" X 5 1/4" White CS.  Then she stamped more and punched and fussy cut them out to add dimension to the card. 

  I believe her colors are Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry and Real Red. 

  Such a fun and happy card.  Great job Chanda! 

  I'll be using this fun stamp set in a Kit to Go in May; the cards are so fun!!

• 3 Flowering Cactus Fun Fold cards with video!

  April 19, 2021

  ---

  I created these cards on Facebook Live last week using the Flowering Cactus product medley seen on pages 8-9 of the Spring Catalog.  But I purchased the refill kit instead of the main suite because I wanted mostly the paper, twine and felt accents. 

  You'll find the video below.  For those of you on Facebook you can see it here.  

  I share a FB Live video each Tuesday at 11 am CT.  Join me here!

  This fold is called a Joy Fold card; a favorite of mine that is basically two half cards folded into one another. 

  The colors are Mint Macaron, Highland Heather and White.   The greeting is from Happiest of Birthdays.  The inside greeting is from Happy Thoughts set in the Spring catalog. 

  Save

  Next is an accordion style card.  I kind of made this one up; trying to use just half of a sheet of card stock for the fold. 

  Save

  This greeting die-cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies and that embossing texture is made with the Tasteful Textile 3D folder.  The greeting is from Simply Succulents stamp set in the Spring catalog. 

  Save

  Lastly is a super simple fun fold card that shows off your designer paper well; on the front and the inside of the card. *See measurements in the photo below. 

  Save

  The colors here are Mint Macaron, Calypso Coral and White.  The pretty Coral twine comes in the refill kit.

  Here's the video for you; enjoy!

  These would be great cards to make a bunch of and you'd use up some of your Designer Paper stash too!
