Lily Impressions DSP; make the most of your paper with this fun-fold card!


Do you struggle with double sided designer paper?  What if you love both sides of the paper and cannot decide which one to use?  Well I have a solution for you with this fun fold card!

I created these cards for my March thank you's for online orders.  They feature the Lily Impressions designer paper from the 2020 Sale-a-Bration catalog seen here.  One side of the papers is all water lilies with an impressionistic feel and the other has washed patterns. The colors are bright and vibrant! 

On the above card the colors are Purple Posy with Blackberry Bliss and Garden Green. The pretty punched corners are from the Detailed Trio punch seen here.

The stamp set and dies are from my top pick for Bundles in the 2020 January – June mini catalog – the So Sentimental bundle seen here:

The front right panel opens on just one side.  It's a perfect layout for your designer paper and all you need to do is add a punched or die-cut layer across both panels.  

The colors on the card above are Pretty Peacock with Melon Mambo. I used the Pretty Peacock rhinestones as accents. 

Which is your favorite?  

Measurements:

  • Card stock is 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Designer paper on the left is 3 1/4" X 4"; card stock on the right is 1 7/8" X 4"
  • The inside white layer is 3 1/4" X 4"
  • Melon Mambo banner is 1" X 4 1/4"

  • Extra special Gift Card idea with a pop up ‘gift bag’ inside the card!


    Here's another gift card idea for you.  It looks harder than it is; honestly! It's a 'gift bag' inside the card! 


    Here's the front view:  I used the angled Heartwarming Hugs designer paper piece I cut off from this card I shared yesterday.  I love it when I can use my paper efficiently! 

    I kept the front very simple as you can see.  The greetings are from the Encircled in Warmth stamp set seen here.

    I even added 'tissue' using the Ever Eden cotton paper!  It's a 6" piece I folded into points. 


    I used our Real Red sheer ribbon on the front for both the bow and the 'handles' inside the bag. Below is a photo of the gift bag cut out.  Measurements are included. 

    Pop-up Gift Bag card measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 11"
    • White – two at 4" X 5 1/4"
    • DSP 4” X 5 ¼” cut one section off diagonally
    • Purse 4” X 9 ½” scored on the 4” side at ½” & 3”, scored on the long side at ½”, 1”, 4 ½”, 5”, 5 ½” & 9”


    Below is the video for 3 different gift card options.  I'll share details on one more unique card tomorrow.

  • Need Gift card ideas? I have three!


    Last week I created 3 different gift card options on Facebook Live.  You can see it here.

    I'm sharing the first one today: 

    I used the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper seen here) and the Encircled in Warmth & Christmas Season bundle. 

    It's made from a 5 1/4" X 12" piece of designer paper; score it every 4".  Trim off one angle for the pocket and adhere it to a 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card base.  

    Inside I added a 4 3/4" X 3 1/2" piece of White CS that I textured with the Star-Crossed embossing folder. I decorated the front & inside with stamped & die-cut images from the Christmas Season bundle seen here. 

    Depending on how you decorate this card it can be quite easy to make!  Below is the video for this one & 2 more gift card options.  I'll share details on another tomorrow.

    My team member Bobby sent me this amazing card last week.  I was seriously blown away!  She is super talented!!

    She used the Sunflower dies to create a medallion for the main greeting.  I never knew it would double as a medallion; I love it so much!

    Her background is created by adhering strips of the Ever Eden specialty designer paper (seen here) to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Evening Evergreen card stock.  This paper will be discontinued in early January; it's available only while supplies last. Notice the pretty gems; these are called Garden gems and can be seen here.  I'm surprised they're not sold out; they are gorgeous and a terrific value. They are also while supplies last. 

    She die-cut two 'sunflowers' from Gold foil & Evening Evergreen card stock and adhered them together, offsetting them a bit. She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set for the main greeting, embossed in Gold embossing powder.

    Why did she send me a Congratulations card?  Well I had a wonderful year as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!  I achieved top levels for Leadership, Team Building and Sales!  I'm most excited to achieve #29 overall in the United States.  Woo hoo!!!

    Thank you all for your support & encouragement.  Whether you've watched videos, ordered from me, are a Flowerbug Team Member, or follow my FB page or blog I appreciate YOU so much!  This hobby turned business has enriched mine and my families lives. I truly love what I do and YOU are the reason!
