Fancy fold swap cards by my Flowerbug’s Team – with measurements!


We swapped Fun Fold cards with my team in February and they knocked it out of the park! I've already shared quite a few of their cards with you and today I have more yet! 

First up today is a pretty card made by Karen.  She found a new fun fold that's a take on a 'book-binding' fold but now completely new with just one additional piece. 

She used the Softly Stippled designer paper – a free choice during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase. Her colors include Calypso Coral, Black, Petal Pink and Vanilla. 

Measurements:

  • Vanilla card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 1/8", 4 1/4" & 5 1/2", 2nd Vanilla layer is 3 1/4" X 4 1/4", textured layer is 2 7/8" X 3 7/8", die-cut greeting (Everyday Detail dies) is 2 3/4" X 1 3/8"
  • Petal Pink is 3 1/8" X 4 1/8"
  • Calypso Coral die-cut (Everyday Detail dies) is 1 3/4" X 3 1/4"
  • Designer paper – 2 pieces – 1" X 4" for book binding fold, 2" X 4" on right side.

This next card was made by Deloris who chose the Flight & Airy designer paper, also in our Sale-a-Bration offering in February. It's also free with any $50 purchase from Stampin' Up!. 

She used the Perennial Postage dies on the front along with the Distressed Tile embossing folder.  Look at the inside fold!

The inside greetings are from the Heartfelt Hexagon bundle.

I shared how to make this neat accordion card on a recent video – see it here. 

Measurements:

  • Card base 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2", White layer for Perennial Postage die is 4 1/2" X 3 1/4" finished size, inside white is 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
  • Boho Blue on front is 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" &  4" X 2 3/4"
  • Flight & Airy designer paper – front is 3 7/8" X 2 5/8", inside accordion is 12" X 4" scored at 3", 4", 5", 6", 7", 8" & 9"

Lastly today is a beautiful card made by Rita who chose the Softly Stippled designer paper like Karen above. 

Her colors include Pebbled Path, Calypso Coral and Vanilla.  The inside greeting is from Charming Sentiments; the front is from Wild Ferns.

Measurements:

  • card base 11" X 5 1/2" score at 1 3/4", 3 1/2", 5 1/4" & 7". second accordion piece is 4" X 3" score in half at 2"
  • Pebbled Path layers – 4 pieces at 1 1/2" X 5 1/4"
  • Designer paper 1 3/4" X 2 3/4" and 1/2" X 5 1/4" on the inside right edge

  • Two days left and they’ll be gone!


    The retiring list is coming out this week Wednesday and these bright and vibrant In Colors will be gone within hours!  They're the 2018-20 In Colors seen on page 164 of the Annual Catalog. Click here to see everything available in these colors; there's a lot! 

    Be sure to order by Wednesday before they're gone!  

    I created 5 cute cards; one in each color using the Daisy Lane & Sweetly Swirled stamp sets.  These cards are going out to my family this week.  

    I used Black ink for the greetings and swirls and the In Color inks for the daisy. The Medium Daisy punch is part of a bundle with the Daisy Lane stamp set seen here. Remember that it will not be available as a bundle after May, 2020. Even if both items return in the next catalog, bundles always retire from one catalog to the next.

  • Best Dressed FB Live cards


    I made these 3 pretty cards during my weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live last night.  

    Each Thursday at 8 pm CT we'll finish 3 cards together in about 30 minutes.   Prep your pieces ahead of time using the measurements I provide and you'll be surprised how quickly you can make your cards!  Join me here: 

    I used the Best Dressed Designer paper seen here but you can substitute other paper, colors, stamps and punches. The stamped greetings are from the Peaceful Moments set here. I use this stamp set so much; the sentiments are wonderful.

    After the video many people share their finished cards. It's so fun to see what products everyone uses and how similar (or not) they are to mine. 

    Here are the details and close up views of these three cards: 

    Old Olive 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", Best Dressed DSP is 4" X 3", Lovely Lipstick is 4 1/4" X 3 1/4", White strip is 3/4" X 4 1/4".  A fast, easy card.

  • Color Challenge with Seriously the Best with Ornate Frames


    My Flowerbug's Team had a color challenge this past month – to use Black and White with a 'Pop' of color.  Here's the card I made: 

    This card literally took me 5 minutes to make.  Here's the steps:

    1. Cut a White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    2. Cut the See a Silhouette DSP to 4" X 5 1/4".  Adhere to the card
    3. Die-cut two pieces a White 2 1/2" X 4"  stitched rectangle and a Black Ornate Frame.
    4. Stamp the greeting and leaves in Black Memento ink.  Add the flowers in Poppy Parade ink. Adhere to the card.
    5. Stamp the 'I miss you a lot' greeting on a scrap of White. Punch out with the Classic Label punch. Add with mini dimensionals.
    6. Add a few rhinestones. Done! 

    You can see the See a Silhouette stamp set here and the Ornate Frames dies here.  Remember that if you order any Ornate bundle from me in April you get a free 3 cards pre-cut kit!  Details below:
