Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!


We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  It's at 7:30 pm CT here.  

It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured. 

For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog. 

Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday. 

Details:

  • Ink – Mossy Meadow & Blackberry Bliss
  • Card stock – Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss, Very Vanilla, Cork & In Good Taste DSP
  • Stamps – Christmas Season, Heartfelt Wishes – both from the 2021 Holiday Catalog
  • Other – Gold 3/8" Fine Art ribbon, Banners Pick a Punch, Mini glue dots

Measurements: 

  • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" from each end on the long side
  • DSP 3 1/4" X 5 1/4"
  • Stamped front 2 1/4" X 4 1/4"; inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
  • CS layer 2 1/2" X 4 1/2"
  • Greeting strips 3/4" X 4"

Here's the recorded video.

  • Harvest Meadow Fun Fold cards kit to go


    Today I'm sharing one of my September cards kit with you. I actually have two and will share the other one tomorrow. 

    This kit includes 10 pre-cut cards (2 each of 5 cards), 1/2 pkg. Nature's Harvest designer paper (6" X 12"), Metallic adhesive gems & Linen Thread.  It's a fabulous value as the product is worth $20 (without tax & shipping) and the cost is just $28 and the tutorial is free! The PDF tutorial includes photos, step by step directions, measurements to make more and a supplies list. 

    8 of these 10 cards are fancy folds and with the tutorial you'll have measurements to make more using other products.  


    You will need your own stamps, ink, adhesive and a paper trimmer to cut your new designer paper using the measurements provided in the tutorial.  Everything else is cut & prepped for you. 

    *I make sure to use only greetings in my kits to go so you can substitute what you already own.  I used Sunny Sentiments, Biggest Wishes, Create with Friends sets here.  *Inks are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Bumblebee, Calypso Coral, Soft Succulent & Versamark. 

    *Be sure to order by September 19th to get this kit!  

    This PDF tutorial will be sent to you via email immediately after payment. The kit is mailed out at the end of September, barring any back-orders.

  • Poppin’ Pastels Technique with Delicate Dahlia


    If you've been a stamper for awhile you've likely played with chalks and the Poppin' Pastel technique.  If not, check this out!  

    You'll need just a few supplies – Chalks, Versamark ink and sponge daubers. Well, card stock too! 

    Tip – choose a solid image with a full surface.  Outline images won't work as well here. 

    Here's how it's done:

    1. Ink your image in Versamark ink and stamp on card stock. 
    2. Dab your sponge dauber in chalk (if it's firm like our new Soft Pastels you may need to scrape some off & use the dust *watch the video below).
    3. Dab over your stamped image repeatedly. Do not rub on the outer edges or it may show outside of your stamped area. 
    4. Blow or dust off excess chalk.  Done!  

    Here's the video:

  • Easy Explosion card video tutorial with Penguin Playmates Designer Paper!


    On last Tuesday's FB Live I shared three unique fun fold cards featuring the Penguin Place bundle and the Penguin Palace designer paper.  *Follow me on Facebook here. 

    Today I'm focusing on the Explosion card. It sure looks complicated but it's just a few score lines on a 4 X 8" piece of DSP. 

    As you can see, it's not a Christmas card.  This bundle and designer paper works well for multiple occasions.  

    The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black, White & Balmy Blue which coordinate with the adorable Penguin Playmates DSP seen here.  This paper is free during our Sale-a-Bration promotion with any $50 order.

    See that cute penguin?  It's punched out with the Penguin punch; right from the designer paper!  

    DSP Explosion card

    • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”, scored at 2 1/8” from each side
    • White inside square 2 ½”, Balmy Blue layer 2 ¾”
    • DSP 4” X 8” score at 2”, 4” & 6”, then in two ‘X’s’ from midpoint score to the outside corners
    • Belly Band 1 ½” X 9”

    Here's the video; I actually show three unique fun fold cards!
