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"

  • Parisian Blossoms Cards Kit to Go


    For January I chose to feature the Parisian Blossoms specialty designer paper for my cards kit to go.  The champagne foil accents and gorgeous patterns were sure to help create beautiful cards.  Look!

    I am thrilled with how they turned out.  Two of the 5 designs are unique fun fold cards which are always a delight to create.   There are 10 cards in this kit; 2 each of 5 designs.  I used the following inks: Pool Party, Black, Petal Pink, Cherry Cobbler and Grapefruit Grove.

    This kit to go includes $20 in actual product (before tax & shipping).  You're getting the 10 cards kit for just $4.35!  If you like pre-cut cards you will LOVE my monthly kits to go!  

    I added the So Sentimental bundle for my greetings and some die-cuts.  It's my top favorite bundle in the new 2020 mini catalog.  Look; it's full of awesome greetings and lots of stitched die-cuts! 

    The cards kit to go includes the following:

    • a pre-cut cards kit for 10 wow cards; including die-cuts and punched pieces
    • Free pdf instructions with photos, measurements (to make more), step by step instructions and a supplies list
    • 1/2 package of the 12 X 12" Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper
    • 1 full package of the new Champagne rhinestones
    • 1 full spool of Petal Pink/Champagne 1/4" ribbon


    You have through January 16th to RSVP for this kit.  It's $28 for locals and $35 for long distance and includes Priority Shipping.

    If you'd like to add on the So Sentimental bundle (above) please let me know.  If you do add it on, (or anything else of $30 or more) I will combine shipping AND you get a free Sale-a-Bration choice!  See the free items here.

  • Painted Poppies in a window


    Adding dimension and interest to a clean & simple card can be a challenge.  Adding a window with the Stitched Nested Label dies does it easily.

    I had this window piece in my bag of White scraps, so it was extra easy to make this card. I used the Stitched Nested Labels; which are a 'must have' in my opinion. Next time you want a die-cut, consider die-cutting it in the center of a larger piece so you can use both pieces! 

    The top White piece is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4", the second White layer is 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".  The Granny Apple Green piece is 1 1/2" X 5 1/2".

    Just like yesterday's card I used my Dark Poppy Parade blends marker to color the new 1/4" White Crinkled ribbon for the bow. Both of the images are stamped in Black Memento ink. I colored the green leaves and bud with a Granny Apple Green Blends marker.  The poppy flower is colored by stamping with one of the stamps in the Painted Poppies set.  

    The greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts stamp set; it's free with any $50 order right now during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  You can see all of the free items here. 

    I love the new Peaceful Poppies suite and have created 10 project sheets to send to everyone who places an order in January.  Details below:

  • Peaceful Poppies; easy cards!


    The new Peaceful Poppies designer series paper is gorgeous with bright, pretty colors and lots of poppies!  There's one sheet in particular that makes it super easy to make quick, floral cards. Click here to see it in my store. 

    It's the sheet of paper on the far left above.  

    I cut the paper at 5 1/2" across and above the flowers.  Then into 3" strips.  Now I have 8 panels of flowers ready for cards!  

    I made two cards here adding a 1" X 5 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade on the left and a white punched border using the Decorative Ribbon Border punch. The cards are Old Olive cut at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2" 

    The greetings are from the new Sale-a-Bration set 'Sending you Thoughts' on page 11 of that catalog.  You can see it here. The punch they're stamped on is the Timeless Label punch seen here.  

    You might wonder where I found that pretty crinkled Poppy Parade ribbon. It's the new 1/4" White crinkled ribbon that I colored Poppy with my Dark Poppy Parade blends.  I LOVE being able to color my ribbon the exact color I need for my projects!  

    Check out all of the Sale-a-Bration items here; remember you get a free choice for every $50 or $100 you spend!
