Floating Panel card with video – so cool but incredibly easy!

March 2, 2023

On a recent FB Live class we made Floating Panel cards like this one made with the Best Day stamp set from the January-April catalog. Click here to see the cute Best Day stamp set.

See how the card front is folded in half but the panel is straight? There's a neat, easy way to do that by adding two little pieces of card stock. Each strip is folded in half and positioned on both the top panel and the card base. See the other photo below to understand it. Or watch the video here.

I also used the Dandy Designs designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration promotion. Sadly that is now over; it ended February 28th.

My colors on the card above are Black, Mango Melody & Polished Pink. I used Blends markers to color the cat image. I added Wink of Stella for some shimmer as well.

Floating Panel measurements:

card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
DSP 2 pieces at 2" X 5 1/4"
White scalloped (Scalloped Contours die) die-cut is 2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
CS layer is 2 5/8" X 3 7/8"
two strips 1/2" X 1 3/4" for floating mechanism

I used the Best Day stamp set here; it's adorable with lots of birthday images and greetings. It's in the Jan-June catalog and you can see it here.

You can see how the two folded strips are added to the front center fold below:

I stamped the inside with images from the Best Day stamp set, adding some colored rhinestones to help the card stay open and in place. Honestly a die-cut or punch would work better than a rhinestone.

It’s the last day to get January’s Paper Pumpkin kit! *add on dies to match!

January 10, 2024

Today is the last day to opt in on January's Paper Pumpkin kit featuring Lovely Lavender.

They've announced the next three month's themes of Paper Pumpkin and there's a cool add-on die set called Love of Spring. These dies coordinate with the January, February & March kits! It's only $12 but you do need to be a Paper Pumpkin subscriber to get them. See them here.

Not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber yet? It's so fun to get a ready made kit in the mail each month! I highly recommend choosing a pre-paid subscription during Sale-a-Bration. If you choose a 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription you will get a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Or more than one if you choose the 6 or 12 month subscription. See the available Sale-a-Bration choices here:
