Friends for Life card with free project sheet & video tutorial

On last week's video I shared two cards featuring the neat Friends for Life bundle and the Full of Life designer paper.  Here's the first card:

I love the bright colors here! The colors are inspired by the Full of Life DSP – Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue & Daffodil Delight. There is a layer of Shaded Spruce under the White layer to show off the heart die-cut. 

This neat bundle is on sale in June; discounted by almost 20%. See the Friends for Life bundle here.

Notice the heart die-cut from the front layer? I saved it and added it inside the card.

I stamped the hearts on another part of the DSP and used the coordinating die to cut them out. The 'wishes' greeting is from the Perennial Postage dies seen here. 

I kept the layout quite simple because the DSP, die-cuts and stamping are the star here. I die-cut the heart from the White layer before I stamped for ease of time during the video. I stamped the 'BEST' greeting first and then added the vertical highlight image in different colors, stamping off first for a lighter hue. I love the effect!

  • Pleased as Punch fun fold card

    I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in.  I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card.

    The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer.  See measurements below.
