Explosion ‘Wow’ cards with step by step video tutorial and template.

We made explosion cards on Facebook Live Monday night.  I host a free class called Stamp with Me Live on the last Monday evening of each month on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow me there.

I always upload the video on my NEW YouTube Channel afterwards so even if you're not on Facebook you can watch it later.  

I chose to use the Favored Flowers designer paper – it's a free Sale-a-Bration choice right now; while supplies last.  You can earn it free with any $50 order from Stampin' Up!.  See it here.

The card starts out as a gate-fold fun fold card.  Easy enough….  I chose to fussy cut a few flowers & leaves from the pretty DSP to add to my greeting element.  The greeting is from the Fitting Florets stamp set. The white stitched circle is from the Stylish Shapes dies.  I also added a few Brushed Brass butterflies; love these!  They're so dainty and nice & flat.  

Here's the inside view of the explosion insert:

I added the layered squares on the diagonally at the center of the explosion piece.  Note that this is only adhered on the very outside edge of the inside card.  It sort of floats.  Please watch the video here to see exactly how it's done.  It's quite difficult to explain how this is done in writing.  

**I created a free project sheet for this card; Download it here

Below is the template I used for the designer paper explosion layer.  You'll start out with a 4" X 8" piece of designer paper and score vertically at 2", 4" and 6".  Then score on the diagonal 4 times as shown.

I hope you try making one of these; they're so fun!

  • Grab this Quick & Easy Christmas fun fold card kit to go; while supplies last!

    I was torn whether I wanted to do another set of Christmas cards for my November monthly kits. But I had to feature the fun Christmas Tags & More DSP so I went with it.

    What do you think?

    They’re so bright & colorful in traditional colors of red & green. These cards are all fun fold layouts too but you’ll get the link to my exclusive video with purchase of the kit or tutorial.
    I didn’t do any stamping on these cards. I used our Christmas Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera instead. It’s filled with tons of Gold foil pre-cut greetings! *It’s currently unavailable but I ordered before they ran out. (same with the DSP)

    This kit includes a half package of the designer paper and ephemera. Plus shares of the ribbon and Peppermint gems too! All with 10 pre-cut cards for just $31. The only thing you have to cut is your new designer paper; but with the tutorial that’s easy. You can see this kit here.

    If you’d rather get the PDF tutorial seen here you can choose it for $16 instead. But you won’t get any of the lovely products…..

    You can see all of my available kits here. Choose more than one and save money on shipping costs.

    I’ll share my second Christmas cards kit with you tomorrow. If you can’t wait, check them out here.

  • Easel card fold with Modern Christmas with a free project sheet! Mystery boxes are still available!

    On last week’s video I shared two fun fold cards featuring the Modern Christmas suite. I shared one yesterday and today I’m sharing the Easel fun fold card. I haven’t made one of these for awhile and forgot how quickly they come together.

    Black, White & Gold are so classy. I did use one bundle and two sets of dies to create this card.

    I used the Traditional Labels bundle seen here for the greeting heat embossed in gold. And the Peace on Earth dies for the center die-cut. Plus the Peaceful Greenery coordinating embossing folder seen here. And lastly the Scenic Adventure dies here for the trees die-cut. Whew!

    There’s just something about a mostly white card that makes it elegant.
    I did create a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it.

  • Modern Christmas Triple-Z card with video & free project sheet

    First; I’ll let you know I still have several Mystery Boxes left. Don’t miss the opportunity to get over $200 in free products! See the details here.

    I shared this super neat card on last week’s video. I love this fold! It looks like work but it’s so easy!

    Isn’t it fabulous?! I found several others online and had to try it. I chose to feature the Modern Christmas suite seen here.

    The scored lines to create this fold are simply 1″ & 3″ for both the card base and the 3 strips. Watch the video below to see how it’s put together.

    The main image of trees is stamped on the die-cut from Branching Out. See these dies here; they coordinate with the stamp set but stand alone too. The greeting is from the Traditional Labels bundle seen here. I cut a second die-cut in Gold and split it apart across the middle so it shows.

    Here’s how I stamped the back side:

    The trees & greetings are from the Ornamental Christmas bundle seen here. I love the playful style of the stamp set.

    The card bekiw is the card I made during the video. I changed it up a bit.

    The beautiful gold & black paper (and the above trees DSP) is from the Modern Christmas DSP seen here. It’s so elegant and fits with the star die-cut from the Modern Christmas bundle quite well. The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.

    I created a free project sheet for these cards. Click here to print or download it. I do recommend you create a file for project sheets or card ideas. It’s so handy to access it quickly.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another as well. Both feature this beautiful Modern Christmas suite. I’ll share the other card tomorrow.
