Fancy Fold Accordion Heart Doilies!

I dreamed of doing this fun accordion fold with the Heart Doilies in my sleep.  I rarely do that!  Do you?  

Acordion style doilies Save

I shared how in this week's Facebook Live yesterday.  My FB Live's are usually on Tuesdays at 11 am but I was out of town so switched to Wednesday this week.  It's so simple!  And you could do this with many of our dies too!  Click below to see it.

I also traced the flap of my envelope onto the From My Heart specialty designer paper to make this card extra, extra special!  

Accordian cards Save

Details:

  • The pretty soft scallops on the edge of the DSP are from the new Braided Border punch.  I did one length of it and cut it in half for both cards. 
  • The greeting is stamped on a Timeless Label punch and added to another Heart Doily.  The stamps are from the Heart to Heart stamp set seen here. 
  • I used the new sparkly Faceted Gems from the From My Heart Suite.  See them here
  • You get 40 Heart doilies in one package for $5.50; a great deal at .14 cents each.

Cutting:

  • I cut a strip of the From My Heart designer paper at 3" X 12" and cut that into two pieces 3" X 5 1/2" long.  The hearts are the reverse side of the pretty foil double sided designer paper on the envelope.  When you use these measurements you can get 8 cards from one sheet!  It's a great way to use up the designer paper you may be 'hoarding'. 
  • The white layer inside is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"; my favorite size for inside cards as you can get 5 from one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11".  

I folded each doily in half and glued each one to the next just on the outer curve.   I adhered the folded doilies to the card with either Tombo liquid adhesive or Tear & Tape; it's super strong!

  • Delicate Dahlias with a 2-toned color technique

    Here's a card I made for an online swap I participated in.  I needed to use an item from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog and the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was my first choice of sets.  

    It has a large dahlia along with a smaller flower image as well. And both are 2-step stamps with outline and solid, dystinktive images to match.  It also has two sets of leaves and 4 wonderful greetings as well!  

    Delicate Dahlia Picture This Save

    The triple-rectangles frame is a die-cut called Picture This dies.  You get 2 dies in the set; a set of rectangles and one of circles.  What I love most about these dies is that you can use both; the small stitched pieces OR the large frame!  See it here in the online store. 

    Picture This. Save

    Can you see the multiple hues of colors on these flowers? I inked the large solid dahlia in Pale Papaya ink first.  Then with a sponge dauber I added Calypso Coral ink on the outside and the center.  Then huff and stamp.  Clean between each inking. The small flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral ink and fussy cut.
