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.

Beautiful Vine Design with Oh So Ombre with video!

January 14, 2021

What do you think of the Oh So Ombre designer paper? Have you seen it yet? If not look here.

Save

It's a 6 X 6" pack of 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper. There are 2 designs and 4 colors in this pretty pack and it's FREE with any $50 order during Sale-a-Bration!

I created this card with it for a Flowerbug's swap a few weeks ago. The first card features the Bermuda Bay color in the pack.

Save

Of course I chose to use all new products! The pretty stitched outline is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here. I love that they don't actually cut; they just stitch a pretty outline. You can really notice the Ombre since I switched the die when I inserted it back in the window. Watch how in the video.

The intricate die is from the Flowering Vines die. It's part of the bundle with the Vine Design stamp set which is where the greeting images are from. See them here.

Here I used the BlackBerry Bliss piece of DSP. Which do you prefer?

I hope you watch the quick video I made featuring these new products.

Happy Thoughts Fun Fold cards kit to go; opt in by the 18th!

January 12, 2021

Lately I've been offering two different pre-cut card kits each month. I'm finding so many great products to feature; I cannot help it! And I like offering a variety of options for my customers.

Did you notice the Happy Thoughts stamp set in the new Spring catalog? It's filled with beautiful greetings; something many of us cannot get enough of. So I created a group of 8 fun fold cards around this set. Look!

Save

I also decided to use the Happy Blooms designer paper; I love the colors & patterns so much. This paper is free with any $50 online order from now through February 28th. See it here.

Here are two unique cards in this kit. Remember you get two of each in the kit; one to keep for ideas and one to send.

I also used a few images from the Pretty Perennials stamp set; but any floral set could work.
