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!

  • Regency Park with the Baby Wipe technique!

    During March our Flowerbug's Team has been focusing on using re-inkers.  I hadn't played with the 'baby wipe' technique for awhile.  I chose the Regency Park suite when creating this cute card:

    It might not show up well here but the White greeting die-cut is 'caught' and held in place by the larger die & the outer two corners of flowers. These dies fit together perfectly!  *you can see the dies in the photo below; the bottom most label nestles into the largest one with flowers on two edges. 

    Here's the Sentimental Park bundle as well, with the greeting & die-cuts. This bundle was one of my first purchases from the Spring catalog and I've used it a lot! 

    SENTIMENTAL PARK BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The other bundle in this suite is the Petal Park bundle seen here. It includes the stamp set & coordinating flower punch. I used the solid flowers on the middle right for my baby wipe technique and added the outline flowers (top right) in Black. 

    PETAL PARK BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

      I had a die-cut dotted background piece (from Dots & Spots here) among my 'extra's and thought it would work well for my background.

    What supplies do you need for the Baby Wipe technique?  

    1. A baby wipe or two
    2. At least 2-3 colors of ink refills
    3. A stamp and card stock

    Success tips for the 'Baby Wipe' technique:

    • Choose colors that work well together.  I tend to choose 3 of my favorites like yellows with pinks, blues with greens, purples with blues etc.
    • Pick a stamp with a solid image; lots of rubber.  An outline image will not show your colors well.
    • Fold the moist baby wipe into an ink pad; I use at least 4 layers. 
    • Drop multiple drops of each color in each area. For example – 4 drops of yellow, move over a bit, 4 more drops of yellow etc.  Then fill with the second color in the same manner. Fill in any empty areas with the 3rd or last color. 
    • When inking your image stamp it in your 'baby wipe' handmade ink pad multiple times, trying to keep it in the same place as much as possible. Moving the image around too much can muddy your colors. 
    • Huff the image and stamp!  

    Here's the inside of my card; I added a few more of the multi-colored punched flowers.

    My colors include Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight and Mango Melody.

    The last Monday of each month I have a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my Facebook page here.  A day or so before the Live I share the project we're making so those who want to stamp along with me can do so.  Others can watch and create later.  

    After the video I provide a post where everyone who makes the project can share their version.  All who do are entered in a drawing for a free prize from me.  Click here to see all of the Floating Panel cards from February's Live.  

    This month I chose another fun fold card – an accordion card that really shows off both sides of your Designer Paper!  

    True Beauty. Accordion Save
    I used the Awash in Beauty designer paper seen here.  I also used the True Beauty bundle as well. See it here.

    The greeting tag is a die-cut from the Tailor Made Tags seen here.  The ovals are from the Framed Florets dies seen here.  

    I created a free project sheet for this card too. Download Accordion DSP card project; March 2023

    Here are the measurements:

    • DSP 5 1/4" X 11 3/4" – score at 1 3/4", 4 3/4" and 7 3/4".  
    • Card base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" 
    • inside stamped layer 2" X 5 1/4" 

    True Beauty Accordion Save

    I added an inside White layer to stamp and sign on. I used Melon Mambo & Old Olive markers to ink the flower bud image before I stamped and die-cut it.
