Fragrant Forest & Countryside Corners in a fun fold layout with video

I've been sharing my Fragrant Forest projects from last week's Live; this is the third one. I have a video below to watch plus free project sheets for each card too.  See this stamp set here.

Save

I chose a simple color combo of White & Pretty Peacock. The designer paper on the upper flap is the Hello, Irresistible from our Online Exclusives line. 

The die-cuts are the Countryside Corners from the Annual catalog; seen here. Can you see the raised lines on the inside white? I used my Simply Scored 1/4" from each edge. 

Here's the free project sheet with measurements, photo and more: Download Fragrant Forest Funfold card

I couldn't decide if I like the clean look of the card on the lower right or the added forest on the lower left card. Which do you prefer? 

Save

Here's the inside view of the upper left card.  I used the Lasting Joy stamp set for my greeting and sentiments. I find I'm reaching for this one often. See it here. 

Save

You might wonder just how I achieved inking only the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the left card above. Watch the video here. 

I cut my stamp apart!

Cutting your stamps can make them so much more versatile!  And they fit right back together on your block if you do want to use the entire stamp.  Try it!

• Darling Donkey’s Birthday card

  January 29, 2021

  ---

  The Darling Donkey's stamp set (seen here) is one of the most popular sets in our Sale-a-Bration promotion right now.  So I chose to use it for my card clubs in January.  We made this cute but easy card: 

  Save

  The colors are Pool Party, So Saffron and Black.  That cute designer paper is called Flower & Field and is also from our Sale-a-Bration promotion that runs through February.  See it here. 

  Save

  Both are free with any $50 order!  I love Sale-a-Bration where we can earn free items with an order.  

  Sale-a-Bration traditionally runs through March. But this year it's one month short because they're offering another one in July & August!! So we actually get an extra month this year!

  The inside is stamped with the third Sale-a-Bration choice called Approaching Perfection. See it here.  It has lots of fun birthday greetings!

  You can watch the video for this quick card below.

  Measurements:

  • Pool Party card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • So Saffron 2" X 4 1/4"
  • Flower & Field DSP 3" X 5 1/2"
  • White die-cut 2 1/2" X 4" 

  I used the Balloon Bouquet punch with this DSP for a quick accent.  I glued the Black & White twine down with liquid Multipurpose Glue.  The donkey is colored in with Blends markers.

• Striking cards with Pretty Perennials with True Love DSP

  January 28, 2021

  ---

  If the True Love designer paper hasn't caught your eye yet look at these cards:  

  Save

  I paired it with the Pretty Perennials stamp and dies bundle for a recent FB Live.  I used Bermuda Bay, Real Red and black. Simple Stamping at it's best!  No die-cuts or punches either!  Sometimes it's fun to just stamp and layer.  

  Save

  You can see the measurements below. I try to share the printed list in my videos so they're easy to jot down.

  Save

  Lastly here's the stepped-up card I made using heat embossing and the Perennial Petal dies.  See the Pretty Perennial bundle here.

  I also used our new Blending Brushes to add color to the white flowers.  Love these so much! 

  Save

  Measurements are below and you can watch the FB Live replay video below: 

  I think cards featuring black and White with a pop of color are so striking and stand out.  What do you think?
