Hey Chuck Fancy Fold cards! Part 3

And today I'm sharing the last 2 projects featuring Hey Chuck.  Annette is one of my talented Flowerbug's and she chose this bundle for her Artist of the Month projects.

This first project features the Masterfully Made designer paper seen here and it's also a fun fold…

July Annette fancy fold Save

I love how she added a torn edge greeting; it fits perfectly with this designer paper that has a torn look to many sheets. 

So here's a clue to her fun fold design: 

July Annette pop and twist Save

Do you recognize this fold? It's called a Pop & Twist fun fold card.  It's not easy to learn; but super cool to give out!  I do not have a video on this fold but you can do a search on YouTube and find many video tutorials.  

Here's the open view: 

July Annette pop up fold Save

Isn't it cool? She added some soft blended background colors on each layer which makes a huge difference to the finished look.  Isn't that designer paper perfect with this bundle?  

If you like a challenge you should enjoy making one of these.  I've made a few and honestly I don't plan to make any more!  Ha! 

Here's the Hey Chuck bundle she used.  The dies are back now and available!

Look at this hilarious rooster!  And the perfect greeting for him…..

Next is a fun fold card featuring the Earthen Elegance designer paper.  

July Annette window Save

She got this fun fold idea from Lisa Curcio.  It has 4 pieces of Misty Moonlight card stock measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 2 1/8". They're adhered together back to back like this: 

July Annette Window card Save

There are 8 pieces of designer paper on each card stock side; measuring 2" X 5 3/8".  The pop-up designer paper on the front and back has a window cut out of it to reveal the rooster image inside; using the same die-cut.  She used the Tailored Tags dies.  This DSP measures 4 1/2" wide X 5". Score 1/2" from each side on the 4 1/2" edge. 

Here's the back side:  

July Annette Window Save

There's a folded strip of card stock under the White tag that pops it up when opened. I may share one of these cards on an upcoming video soon; it's quite intriguing!  

I hope you enjoyed seeing all of her projects; she did an incredible job! If you want to see details on each one, click here for part 1 and here for part 2.

  • Three more background ideas on these Team swap cards

    Our Flowerbug's Team card swap theme was to create our own backgrounds.  I shared three cards yesterday and here are three more:

    Yellow is the underlying color on each of these swaps which is a perfect color for summertime. First is a pretty card in a blue & yellow combo by Candy.  

    July Candace bottled happiness Save

    She stamped the Timeless Tile background stamp and then textured it with an embossing folder.  She also used the Bottled Happiness stamp set. Her colors include Misty Moonlight & Daffodil Delight.  Such a beautiful card!

    ~~~

    Next is a card made by Jacki with the Hello Ladybug stamp set & Ladybug Builder punch.

    July Hello Ladybug Save

    She stamped her background with the daisy image in the stamp set, heat embossing it with White embossing powder.  It sure pops on the Black card stock!  She added Daffodil Delight & White card stock for a poppin' color combo.

    I LOVE her bumble bee!  She used the punch for the body (adding Daffodil Delight strips to the Black body) and the wings are punched from Window Sheets.  So clever and fun. 

    July Hacki Hello Ladybug Save

    ~~~

    Next is another pretty card made by Paula. She featured the Petal Park, Two-Tone Flora and Timeless Arrangements stamp sets. 

    July Paula Petal Park Save

    Her colors include Daffodil Delight, Black, White & Old Olive, stamped off.  She added a few Brass Butterflies and our Black & White gingham ribbon.  

    I'll share the rest of our swaps next week.  Have a great weekend!

  • 3 unique techniques on these pretty swap cards

    I'll be sharing our July Flowerbug Team swaps this week and next.  Our theme was to create our own backgrounds.  They came up with some amazing ideas.  I absolutely LOVE seeing their creativity and style.  

    First is a monochromatic card by Annette. I bet you'll never guess how she did this special background…..

    June Annette ink dragging Save

    She used Orchid Oasis and Boho Blue ink spots and dragged the ink across her white card stock. One color in each direction.  I was shocked at how pretty and evenly colored it is. I think it looks like denim. It's the perfect way to highlight the pretty die-cut. I'm going to try this myself soon! 

    Her greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on a die-cut from this bundle.  

    She used the Wonderful Thoughts bundle seen here. 

    WONDERFUL THOUGHTS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card that Monica made with the Color & Contour stamp set & Scalloped Contour dies. 

    July Monica Color & contour set Save

    She created a blended and masked background using Orchid Oasis and Daffodil Delight.  She added a bit of Pool Party on the flower and the card base too.  I love these colors together! 

    ~~~

    And lastly today is a unique technique by Lori. I'm not sure I've done this one! Can you guess how she did it….?  

    July Lori Birds eye view Save

    She first scored her White card stock about 1" apart, on the diagonal. Then she folded the card stock on each score line and sponged Balmy Blue ink on each fold.  I know I've never done this one; at least in my memory I haven't.  So cool and very precise too!  

    She used the Circle Sayings bundle for her greeting & punch. The bird is water-colored with our watercolor pencils. 

    She used the new Bird's Eye View stamp set seen here.  She also stamped her envelope.
