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.

  • Unique Double Triangle fun fold with free project sheet & video

    Today I’m sharing a super neat fun fold card from last week’s video. I featured brand new products from our Online store. The suite is called Delicate Dreams and it’s beautiful! See it here.

    I shared two of the cards here in the last few days. Today I’m sharing the most unique one.

    Both upper and lower triangles pull out to reveal this:

    It’s made from two scored pieces that overlap in the center. I scored each on at 5 1/2″ and then at an angle as well. Please watch the video below to see how it’s done. It’s fairly confusing to use the tutorial only.

    This is how it looks when you open the right side only.

    I stamped the ‘wheat’ looking image using Stazon ink because the Earthen Toned Metallic foil would resist a water-based ink. This specialty foil paper coordinates beautifully with the bronze print in this DSP.

    That pretty ribbon is the Secret Sea open weave ribbon. The greeting is from January’s product of the Month – the Fabulous Sayings stamp set. It’s sold out now; they’re available only while supplies last.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to download or print it.

    Below is the video tutorial for these cards; be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel. Or follow me on Facebook here; I share a video almost every Tuesday at 11 am CT.
