Flight & Airy surprise accordion fold with video & free project sheet

I shared this beautiful card in last week's Live video. We also made it at my local Card Clubs as well.  

Save

There are so many fabulous projects and features on this pretty card front I'll list them here:

• The colors are Fresh Freesia with Boho Blue & White.
• The Fresh Freesia layer is first cut with the Perennial Postage dies before texturing. 
• The beautiful texture is from the Layering Floral 3D embossing folder seen here.  I cannot recommend this folder enough!  I rubbed my Craft White ink pad directly over the deep texture to highlight the flowers. *watch the video
• The pretty butterfly is from our Paper Butterfly Accents. We added Boho Blue & Fresh Freesia ink to it with Blending Brushes. 
• The greeting stamps are from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.  It's one of our free choices with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration.  See it here. 
• The White greeting label is made by punching the ends of a 1" wide strip of card stock with our Handmade Tag punch.  It's layered onto the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
• See the Flight & Airy designer paper here.  It's another free Sale-a-Bration choice with a $50 order through February, or while supplies last.
• The inside layers were also made with the Perennial Postage dies (like the front layer) 

But the coolest thing about this card is that you get a fun surprise once you open it!

There's a full strip of Flight or Fancy designer paper inside, folded accordion style in the center. This leaves the outer areas flat for adding greetings etc.  Remember there's a video tutorial to watch here or below.

You can add more labels, greetings or punches on each of the accordion folds as well if you wish.

• Friends for Life cards; a quick layout you’ll love. Check out the free project sheet & video too

  Today I'm sharing an eye-catching card made with the Friends for Life bundle.  I think they're fabulous if I do say so myself!

  Save

  They feature the Friends for Life bundle seen here.  I also used two more favorites – the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder.  *Click on each title to see them in my store. 

  The unique Designer paper is the Full of Life 6 X 6" paper seen here.  I love it so much; it includes bright bursts of colorful patterns filled with watercolor type prints.  *my free tutorial of the month features this suite!  See below. 

  Save

  The measurements are so simple. I cut the 6" DSP down to 5 1/4" X 6" and then cut that into two pieces – one for each card. I then textured it with the Dotted 3D embossing folder and added it to a narrow strip of coordinating card stock on the left side. 

  All that's left is to add the layered circles and friend die-cut. 

  I matched the DSP with coordinating card stock. The card above is Night of Navy and this card below is Shaded Spruce.

• A Round We Go card with free project sheet & video tutorial

  July 1, 2024

  I fell in love with the Round we Go bundle after making this card!

  Save

  Click here to see the Round we Go bundle online. It includes a die that makes awesome rosettes!

  As you can see I used many of the fun die-cuts includes as well as a few stamps.  I did heat emboss the greeting with White embossing powder. Heat embossing adds a special touch to cards in my opinion. 

  My colors include the new Summer Splash with Melon Mambo & White.
