Follow Your Art – more easy Double Wonder cards


I made another group of cards using the Double Wonder template. These are so quick and easy to make and the measuring sure isn't much when you consider it makes 11 cards!  

You start out with two pieces of 6" X 12" designer series paper. It does need to be double sided.

Download the template & directions here. Download Double Wonder cards & template

I chose to use the Follow your Art designer paper.  It will be perfect for all of my crafty friends and customers.  Did you know it's on sale right now?  It's just $4.60 instead of $11.50 right now?  It's on the Last Chance list here.  There are so many amazing deals right now! 

I'll show you each set of cards separately.  First up is Layout 1.  It's fun to mix and match the pieces of designer paper cut from the template. With double sided paper you get quite a few options.   

Next is Layout 2 using two 1" strips of DSP on each card.  You can jazz them up as much as you want; I kept them fairly simple using punches and die-cuts in my scraps. 

Lastly is Layout 3 and the bonus card on the right. 

I used the Crafting Forever stamp set (retiring) and just a few colors of ink; Pacific Point, Blushing Bride and Crushed Curry for sponging.  I did use the Crushed Curry ribbon on many of these cards and the Gingham Gala adhesive backed sequins.  They are both on sale too! 

Don't miss out on the amazing deals; get them while you can. Click here.  I doubt we'll have many things on sale for awhile….

  • Spring Punched Banner; cute home decor piece!


    To all of our Veterans; thank you for your service!  I wish you all a safe and happy Memorial Day! 

    ~~~

    I haven't shared this project yet; it was the bonus project many of my gals received in their Spring Retreat package.   It's made with the Pleased as Punch designer paper; it was free during Sale-a-Bration earlier this year.  

    To create the banners I first cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" long X 3 1/2" wide.  Then I made a mark at the center of the short end and cut from that mark to the opposite corner.  Then I had my template!  

    I added lots and lots of punched pieces!  I used the Umbrella punch, the Tulips punch, Daisy, Leaf, Butterfly Duo, the Small Bloom punch and the Heart Punch pack.  A few of the banners are textured too.  It would be fun to hang this in your craft room or on a window .

  • More fun fold cards!


    Each day this week I'm sharing many of the Fun Fold card swaps made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  They are amazing! 

    First is Candace's pretty Double Triangle card:

    This card is so fun to make and to receive! You can find all kinds of tutorials for this fold.  Here's a video I made for it: 

    The best thing about this card fold is how perfectly it uses both your card stock and designer paper without waste!  And it makes 2 cards at the same time!

    Start out with a full 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock.  Score it down the center both ways; at 5 1/2" and 4 1/4".  Then cut in half on the diagonal like this:

    Now cut two pieces of designer paper measuring 4" X 5 1/4" in half.  Use double sided paper for the best use; two for each card.

    Candace used the retiring Peaceful Poppies designer paper seen here, the Painted Label dies and the Peaceful Moments bundle.  I love that splash of designer paper inside the card!

    Marilyn made this beautiful card with the Ornate Garden suite of products seen here; an early release from the upcoming Annual Catalog.  

    • The Olive card base is 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
    • The Terracotta Tile layer is 4" X 3"
    • Designer paper is 3 7/8" X 2 7/8"
    • The Olive stitched rectangle is 3 1/2" X 2 1/4" 
    • The Terracotta Tile die-cut is from the Ornate Frames dies
    • The White daisy layer is 1 1/8" X 2 1/2", the White inside is 4" X 5 1/5"
    • Stamps are from the Ornate Style & Ornate Thanks stamp sets 

    Paula made this striking fun fold card using the Peaceful Poppies designer paper and the Painted Poppies bundle.

    This Peaceful Poppies designer paper is retiring and is on the Last Chance list now while supplies last here.  I'm so glad the Painted Poppies bundle will be returning in the new Annual catalog! 

    Measurements:

    • Poppy Parade main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 6 3/8"
    • Striped DSP is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
    • Poppies DSP is 1 3/4 X 3 3/4"
    • White strips are 2" X 4" 

    I hope you're enjoying these fun fold cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team!  More tomorrow!
