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

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.

    I bet this year many of us will be giving gift cards more than ever.  This social distancing is hard but during the Holiday's it's going to be so tough!  If you are missing celebrating with your family this year I feel for you.  Holidays are meant to be enjoyed together. But if it keeps us and them safe I'm sure it's the right decision. But we don't have to like it, right?! 

    Here's a fun gift card holder you can make to give those gift cards in. 

    Santa tags Save

    I made one during last week's Facebook Live but you can see the video below, or here on my YouTube Channel.

  • We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!

    On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

    These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

    Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!
