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.  

Heartfelt Hello card front 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! 

Heartfelt Hello Club Save

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.

  • Beautiful Winter Meadow card; a great layout to use those extra pieces

    The Winter Meadow designer paper & the Magical Meadow stamp & dies bundle are among my favorites from the 2023 Holiday catalog. Pretty products produce pretty projects!  Say that three times! Ha! 

    Winter Meadow silver Save

    I was playing with the designer paper and had these two pieces among the scraps in my paper pack. I simply added a layer of Blueberry Bushel card stock to one piece and added them to the White card base offset from each other for balance.  Easy peasy! 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
    • DSP 1 piece at 2 1/2" X 4" and 1 at 2" X 4 1/4"
    • Blueberry Bushel 2 3/4" X 4 1/4"

    Of course the pretty dies help a lot too. The greeting label is from the Nested Essential dies seen here and the leaves are both from the Magical Meadow bundle seen here.  

    MAGICAL MEADOW BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Next I added a greeting layer – heat embossed with Silver embossing powder & my Heat Tool.  Adding the White & Silver mesh ribbon in loops under it sure gives a great finishing touch! To add the loops of ribbon I created them and pressed them to the back of my greeting, after I added some Seal tape runner of course.

    I saw that this beautiful Winter Meadow designer paper is in low inventory; grab it while you can here.
