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
  • Calypso Coral greeting strip is 2 3/4" X 5/8" 

I'll share more with you tomorrow!  Stay tuned!

  • Ornate Garden; simply done


    Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog.  You can see all of it here. 

    For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

    You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough.  So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White.  I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.  

    I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

  • Stamp with me! Tonight: Thursday, April 2nd at 8 pm on Facebook Live


    Sadly, my April events are all cancelled due to the current pandemic.  I haven't had a month without seeing my stamping friends in many, many years!  We're having virtual clubs instead this month but it just won't be the same!

    I know many of you are in the same situation so I decided to do a weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live on Thursdays at 8 pm CDT. It's a virtual stamping class. Join me Thursday night, April 2nd here on my FB page.  


    We'll be making these 3 cards plus a bonus technique I'll demonstrate. Remember you don't have to use these exact products!  You can easily substitute other paper, stamps etc.

    If you don't have the Magnolia Lane designer paper you can use any other paper you own instead.  It will be fun to see what everyone uses; we'll share our projects with each other afterwards. 

    Here are the supplies and measurements so you're ready to stamp with me:

    Measurements:

    • Card bases; one White 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", two of Mossy Meadow 4 1/4" X 11" 
    • Designer Paper – two designs cut at 4" square. Cut one  on the diagonal in half.  For the other, make a mark at 1 1/4" from the upper right and also from the lower left. 
    • Good Morning Magnolia stamp set

    Extras: (it might look like a long list; but it's mostly accessories) 

    • Black Memento & Petal Pink inks
    • Blends markers – Petal Pink, Light Mossy Meadow
    • one large oval die-cut (largest Stitched Shape oval die or cut a rectangle at 2 1/2" X 3 1/2") 
    • a 1 1/2" White circle and a Petal Pink Pretty Label punched piece. (You can easily substitute any shapes here) 
    • Champagne rhinestones 
    • Petal Pink ribbon
    • Sponge dauber for Petal Pink ink 
    • Mini glue dots
    • Dimensionals
