Gatefold Velvet Meadow arches card


Here’s another neat card sample featuring the Velvet Meadow suite:

Gatefold cards are a great way to use your pretty designer series paper. Each side measures 1 7/8″ X 5 1/4″. I stamped the pretty flowers from the Flowering Meadow bundle seen here on the White arch die-cut; then layered it on the next size larger Peaceful Pine arch die-cut.

The Arches dies are out of stock currently but will be back.

I stamped the flowers in Bubble Bath, Berry Burst and Peaceful Pine ink. The greeting is stamped on a strip of White that is layered on the Velvet specialty paper in Bubble Bath color. A pretty but easy card.

Here’s what the open view looks like:

The color combinations Stampin’ Up! comes up with in their designer paper continues to amaze me. They make it so easy to make beautiful, coordinating projects. Our color families and the matching products is what drew me to Stampin’ Up! over 21 years ago and is still one of my favorite things about them.

  • He’s the Man fun fold card; Facebook Live tonight!


    Here's the card  we're making tonight for Stamp with Me Live. It's at 7:30 pm CT here.
    Gather some supplies and create along with me.
     
     
    I used He's the Man DSP; no stamping on the front.  I used the die-cuts included in the special He's the Man designer series paper.  I love this paper with the two sheets of fun elements we can use for card making or scrapbooking.  
     
    It's a fun fold card with the bottom half opening up to reveal the same angled square piece as the front. These are from the Stylish Shapes dies seen here.  This set of dies is all stitched in squares, circles and banner shapes!
     
    Measurements:
    • Card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4", & 2 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • embossed back is 5 1/4" X 4"
    • Squares 2 3/4" & 2 3/8"
    • DSP 5 1/4" X 2"
    Other products used:
    Dies are Stylish Shapes; Brick embossing folder & Rustic Metallic adhesive-backed dots.
     
    The stamp is from the He's All That bundle; the arrow is another element from the Designer Paper seen here. 
     

    Join me here where I'll share a few more cards made with this layout.

  • Glimmer Paper meets the Slim Card dies for a big WOW!


    I hope you're not tired of the Slim line cards I've been sharing this week.  I've been having a lot of fun making them with the Slim Card dies and the Slim Saying stamp set.  

    I shared these striking cards on FB Live Tuesday: 

    I wanted to use the new 2022-24 In Color glimmer paper, I knew it would show off it's ombre' effect nicely with the Slim Card dies.  I chose to use the 2 in colors of Parakeet Party with Starry Sky.  

    The Slim Sayings bundle is retiring this month and available while supplies last.  BUT the Slim Card dies are on sale now at 50% off!  See them here.  It's a better deal to get the Slim Card dies separately from the Slim Sayings stamp set even though they are available in a bundle.  

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
    • White layer for the die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"

    I had to cut the colored glimmer paper twice since it's in 6 X 6" size and the die is about 8 1/2" long.  I also used the Picture This dies for the greeting label and the Starlit punch for the glimmer stars; also punched from the In Color Glimmer paper.  

    I saved the outside pieces from the chevron glimmer paper and made this card: 

    I just couldn't throw it away and decided it could be used for a second card.  I adhered the two colored pieces to a piece of White card stock and trimmed off the excess before adding it to a card base of Orchid Oasis.  

    You can watch the video here or click on the photo below to watch it.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel and my Facebook page here.
