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.

  • Gorgeous color combo in this Impressions Abloom card


    Look at this pretty card made almost entirely of die-cuts! 

    I absolutely love these soft colors together!  Pretty in Pink with the new Cloud Cover & White. 

    Measurements:  

    • Card base is 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Pink textured layer is 4 1/4" X 2"
    • DSP strip 4 1/4" X 1/2" 
    • White arch is 3 1/4" X 4 1/2", pink greeting arch is 2 1/4" X 1"

    This pretty card is made with the Impressions Abloom bundle seen here.  

    Other products used are the Arches dies, the Mini Corrugated embossing folder and a thin strip of Florals in Bloom DSP too.

    Technique: I sponged the die-cut flowers with coordinating ink to add depth.  Two quick ways to add easy detail and depth to your projects is to use Stampin' Dimensionals and sponging.  It's amazing what sponging can add to your projects! 

    You can see many of the dies in this bundle in the photo below.  

    If you missed the last few project I made with this bundle scroll back a few days here on my blog.

  • A fun layout with the Impressions Abloom bundle; with free project sheet!


    I shared this striking card on last week's video.  It has a color combination I love! 

    The colors include Summer Splash, Strawberry Slush, White & Darling Duckling.  It features the Impressions Abloom bundle seen here.  

    I love the split view of the stamped panel. I did this by stamping first and cutting it into thirds afterwards.  It's simply 3 1/2" X 4 1/2", cut into 1 1/2" panels. 


    Here's a free project sheet for you to print or download.  Click on the following link: Download Impressons Abloom stacked card

    The Impressions Abloom bundle has it all; floral and greeting images with fabulous, coordinating dies.  I'll be sharing a another card made with it this week.  

    This stamp set is both a 2-step set and a distinktive style which means it gives multiple hues of color with one inking.  I've been loving this bundle! Between the flowers, greetings and dies it's a sure winner!  

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and another; both using this wonderful bundle.  I hope you watch it; don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel too!
