I’ve got more ideas yet! Botanical Layers bundle cards with video

I challenged myself to use each pattern of the vellum included in the Lovely Layers vellum.  You can see it here; you get 60 sheets in the pack!  It includes 4 different prints and many sheets of plain vellum too. 

This first card has a printed circle on it.  The easy solution was to add a die-cut wreath.  I used three sets of dies here; the Natural Prints, Amazing Thanks & Hydrangea dies.

My colors are Parakeet Party, Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The vellum in the kit is 1/4" larger than the 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" white layer.

Remember that it helps to place a White layer under your vellum to see it's true color.

Here are two cards; both using the Lovely Layers Vellum.

For this card I textured it with the new Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder.  Embossing vellum is a wonderful way to add it to your projects; it's texture and opaqueness is so beautiful.

The colors are Polished Pink & Parakeet Party.  I used the Poppy Moments and Natural Prints dies for the greenery and the Nature's Prints stamp set for the stamped leaves and greeting.

    My colors are Gray Granite with Early Espresso ink. The die-cut trees are from the Horse & Sleigh dies seen here. I added some color to the base of the trees with brown & Gray Granite Blends. My greetings are from the Lasting Joy and Layering Leaves sets.

    Here's the view once the upper panel is lifted.  I stamped a tree from the Horse & Sleigh bundle on the inside.

    Measurements: 

    • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”.  Cut up to the 4 ¼” score line at 1 ¼” from each outer edge.
    • Greeting strip 5 ½” X 1”

    Next is a double flap card in blues – Misty Moonlight & Boho Blue.  These colors pair beautifully together.

    This card is a wonderful fun fold layout for 6" papers.  You can make two cards with one piece. Or make 8 cards with a 12" designer paper! The stamps are from One Horse Open Sleigh and Lasting Joy.  

    The side flap is scored and the score line is placed right at the left card edge.  I cover that up with the inside white panel.  

    Measurements:

    • DSP – 1 piece per card 3” X 5 ¼”
    • Card base 5 ½” X 4 ¼”
    • Center flap 3 ¼” X 11” score at 5 ½”, Side flap 5” X 1” score at ¾”
    • White inside 3” X 5 ¼”

    Both of these cards are included in my One Horse Open Sleigh fun fold cards PDF tutorial seen here.  My tutorials can be used for more than this designer paper!

  • One Horse Open Sleigh Fun Fold cards with video & measurements!

    On last week's Live video I shared three fantastic fun fold cards featuring the One Horse Open Sleigh designer paper – it's an Online Exclusive you can see here.

    These cards were featured in last month's card kit to go; each card is a fancy fold!  The kit is no longer available but the PDF tutorial is here.   You can see all of the cards in the tutorial below:

    I love this card because it shows off the full beauty of this scenic paper. Whenever I have a pretty scenic paper I want to show off  this is the layout I use.

    Just trim off 3/4" of the upper or lower edge of the designer paper and cut using the following measurements: 

    Measurements:

    • DSP – start with 1 piece 5 ¼” tall X 6” wide. Make your first cut 2 ¾” from the left edge vertically.  From that cut edge cut another piece at 1 1/8"
    • Card base 8 ½” X 5 ½” score at 1 ½” & 4 ¼”
    • White inside 1 ¾” X 5 ¼”

  • Forever Forest – beautiful mountains & trees

    I created this card for an online swap I'd joined last month.  It shows off the gorgeous mountain dies in the Forever Forest bundle.

    I knew I had to get this bundle with the many trees, that gorgeous mountain die and the other options.  It's a fabulous scene builder set!  See the bundle here.

    I used Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the trio of trees image, adding a second image without reinking.  Then I added 5 die-cut trees from Shaded Spruce card stock over the stamped trees.

    I wanted to create a soft sky above the trees so I lightly added Balmy Blue ink with a Blending Brush.  I then inked the 'cloud' image in the same Balmy Blue, stamped off once and stamped in the sky.  

    The 'Winter Wishes' is from the Magical Meadow stamp set seen here.

    I die-cut two mountains in White for each card, adding them in different positions on the bottom of the stamped White layer.  After I added them I trimmed off the excess on the sides before adhering the layer to the card base. 

    What do you think?
