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.   

Save

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. 

Save

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….

  Today's card is the second one I shared during last week's Live video.  I chose to feature the Labeled with Love bundle. 

  Save

  There's just something classy about a mostly white card. To me it seems like there's more focus on the main element – in this card a pretty butterfly tag. And the texture is a quiet backdrop. 

  Here are some of the products I used:

  • Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here
  • Dashing Designs 3D embossing folder seen here
  • Something Fancy dies seen here

  Save

  Is this your style of card?  Or is it a bit too clean & simple?

  This neat fun fold card features the Lily Pond Lane designer series paper and the Labeled with Love punch bundle seen here. 

  The stamp set is available in a bundle with either a punch or a set of dies.  Love that they have these options to please us all.  

  Save

  My colors include Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Pretty Peacock which I got from the Lily Pond Lane DSP seen here.  I still have a few card kits to go with this adorable designer paper. See them here; while supplies last.

  The card layout includes a quarter sheet on the base and a scored/folded 11" X 4 1/4" piece over it.  A few White & DSP layers and that's it!  It's quite simple.  I did fussy cut the butterflies I added to the right panel.

• Team swaps with the Unbounded Love bundle & more

  July 18, 2024

  ---

  Here are a few more of our June Team card swaps.  I shared quite a few last week as well. Our theme was to use a new color along with an old favorite.  

  Lori made this card with Summer Splash and Berry Burst with White. 

  Save

  She added the Unbounded Beauty designer paper, the Deckled Rectangle dies and a Paper Butterfly Accent too.  It's also a fun fold card!

  It's a Dutch Door fun fold.  Making a Dutch Door fold is so simple.  To a full quarter card base you'll add a second layer that opens from the side. Her horizontal layer is 8 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4 1/4". 

  Save

  I like that you cannot see the inside greeting layer until you open the card. The greetings are from the Unbounded Love bundle.  

  ~~~

  Next is a monochromatic card made by Rita. She also used the Unbounded Love bundle.  

  Save

  Her colors include Peach Pie, Black and White. The DSP is the 2024-26 In Color 6 X 6" pack. She added embossed texture to the background.  I especially like how she added that pretty leaf die-cut frame over her stamped greeting.  A fabulous idea where you don't have to cut the greeting layer to match the die-cut exactly. 

  ~~~

  Lastly is a fun celebratory card made by Joan. 

  Save

  She featured the 'Light the Sky' stamp set seen here online.  I love her colors of Summer Splash with Real Red, Black & White.
