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?  


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!  

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!

  • Happy New Year! Who’s ready for new product?!


    Happy New Year!!!  It's officially 2021! 

    In some ways I cannot believe the actual year.  When I was young I thought we'd have flying cars by now and would have people living on the moon!  Ha!

    I've been playing with lots of new product lately; getting ready for my New Catalog BOGO event on Tuesday, January 5th.  I thought I'd share a silly card featuring a few new products with a little play on the end of 2020.

    The cute donkey is from a stamp set called Darling Donkeys and it's a free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order.  I colored him in with Blends markers.  The card is Crumb Cake and the confetti & number die-cuts are in Pacific Point, Bumblebee & Magenta Madness.

    Woo hoo!! Sale-a-Bration & the new 2021 Spring Catalog officially start on Tuesday, January 5th!  

    Products Used:

    • The fun confetti die-cuts are from the Dandy Wishes dies in the new 2021 Spring Catalog; I love this retro style! 
    • The numbers are from the Playful Alphabet in the annual catalog; you get 58 dies for just $34.
    • The greeting is from the So Sentimental stamp set; it's in a bundle with the Stitched So Sweetly dies (scalloped rectangle used here.)

    Have a wonderful New Year's weekend everyone!

  • Life is Beautiful fun fold cards with video!


    Here are the two cards I made on FB Live last week.  I had to ink up my Life is Beautiful stamp set one more time. Sadly it's retiring on January 4th.  

    This first card is made with Purple Posy & Gray Granite.  I cut off 1 1/2" from the front layer to reveal a bit of the inside.  I used the Stamparatus to stamp both the tree and greeting at the same time.  I love it for mass producing!  Perfect every time!

    I used Highland Heather ink for the bokeh dots in this set; stamped off a few times.  That neat texture is a new folder in the upcoming Spring catalog called Painted Texture.

  • Oh So Ombre cards; quick & easy with my 2-cut template!


    Check out these cute cards made with the upcoming Sale-a-Bration FREE designer paper called 'Oh So Ombre'.  I created them on my Stamp with Me FB Live Monday night.  I created a template to chop up a piece of designer paper into 4 pieces. See the video below. 

    It's a pack of 48 sheets in 6 X 6" size with beautiful colors & patterns with a gradual color change.  One side is smooth and the other features the fun dots.  

    You'll be able to earn this paper pack FREE with a $50 order during our annual Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It starts in just 6 days and runs from January 5th – February 28th, 2021.

    I made these 3 cards with the Dandy Garden Designer Paper (another sneak peak; from the 2021 Spring Catalog) with my template seen below.  

    Start out with a piece of double sided Designer Paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" and then cut it into 4 pieces using the template below.  Then, mix & match your pieces on a 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base.  

    Tips:

    • This is easiest if you use patterns without a direction on them; such as flowers that grow up from the bottom or words. 
    • Choose one pack of DSP that coordinates well and cut 2-3 pieces in a variety of patterns.  It's fun to mix & match them. 

    Watch the video below to see how and get some creative tips:
