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

October 6, 2023

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

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.

ALL ABOUT AUTUMN 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER

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!

Ornate Garden; simply done

April 3, 2020

Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog. You can see all of it here.

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

Save

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough. So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White. I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

Stamp with me! Tonight: Thursday, April 2nd at 8 pm on Facebook Live

April 2, 2020
Sadly, my April events are all cancelled due to the current pandemic. I haven't had a month without seeing my stamping friends in many, many years! We're having virtual clubs instead this month but it just won't be the same!

I know many of you are in the same situation so I decided to do a weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live on Thursdays at 8 pm CDT. It's a virtual stamping class. Join me Thursday night, April 2nd here on my FB page.

Save

We'll be making these 3 cards plus a bonus technique I'll demonstrate. Remember you don't have to use these exact products! You can easily substitute other paper, stamps etc.

Save

If you don't have the Magnolia Lane designer paper you can use any other paper you own instead. It will be fun to see what everyone uses; we'll share our projects with each other afterwards.

Here are the supplies and measurements so you're ready to stamp with me:

Measurements:
- Card bases; one White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", two of Mossy Meadow 4 1/4" X 11"
- Designer Paper – two designs cut at 4" square. Cut one on the diagonal in half. For the other, make a mark at 1 1/4" from the upper right and also from the lower left.
- Good Morning Magnolia stamp set
Extras: (it might look like a long list; but it's mostly accessories)
- Black Memento & Petal Pink inks
- Blends markers – Petal Pink, Light Mossy Meadow
- one large oval die-cut (largest Stitched Shape oval die or cut a rectangle at 2 1/2" X 3 1/2")
- a 1 1/2" White circle and a Petal Pink Pretty Label punched piece. (You can easily substitute any shapes here)
- Champagne rhinestones
- Petal Pink ribbon
- Sponge dauber for Petal Pink ink
- Mini glue dots
- Dimensionals
